Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shaT11poos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful Just plain mulsitied
cocoanut oil (Which rs pure and entire
ly greaseless), is much better than the
most expensive soap or anything else
you can use for shampooing, as this
can't possibly. iniure, the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with wa
ter and rub it in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and ex'
cessive oil The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves it fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
age.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. 1t is cheap.

MOVIE ACTRESSES AND
THEIR HAIR

Did it ever occur to you that every
movie actress you have seen has
lovely hair, while the most popular
count their curls as their chief beau.
ty? In fact, many are leading ladies
just because of their attractive looks.
Inquiry among them discloses the fact
that they bring out all the natural
beauty of their hair by careful sham
pooling, not with any soap or make
shift, but with a simple mixture by
putting a teaspoonful of Canthrox
(Which they get from the druggist)
in a cup Of hot water and applying
this instead of soap. This full cup
of shampoo liquid is enough so it is
easy to apply, it to all the hair instead
Of just the top of the head. After
its use, the hair dries rapidly with
uniform color. Dandruff, excess oil
and dirt are dissolved and entirely
disappear. The hair is so fluffy that
it looks much heavier than it is, its
luster and softness is delightful-Adv.

 What do we want when we re- turn home from our daily toil?" he asked. What do We desire to ease our burdens. to gladden. our hearts to bring smiles to our lips, and joy to our eyes?"

ties on the Mexican border has just

improvements in the service. although
the Y. NJ. c. A. has been reaching
every military outpost between
Brownsville, Texas. and Yuma. Ari-
IONA, since many months before the
signing of the armistice, and has been
serving abe principal points along
the border since the Pershing expedi-
ton.
Instead OF having a general super
wiser for the entire Mexican border,
as heretofore. Mr.. Kurtzhalz an
nounces that the border will be d.
vided INTO three distinct districts, each
presided over by a district secretary
bearing the same relation to depart
mental headquarters as that borne by
the larger camps. Those district
secretaries will live at convenient
points In the territory supervised by
them. making visits to the various
stations and outposts as frequently
as possible and keeping themselves
fully informed as to the work being
done. the attitude of the officers and
men toward the Individual secretaries
and all other matters pertaining to
