Use Cocoanut Oil
For Washing Hair

II you want TO keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared sham
poOs contain too much alkai. IT
dries the scalp, makes the hair brit
tie, and is very harmful. Just plain
mulsifed cocoanut oil (which is pure
and entirely greaseless). is much
better than the most expensive soap
or anything else you can use for
shampooing. as this can't possibly
injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water 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 re-
moves every particle of dust, dirt,
dandruff and excessive OIL The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and t
leaves ii fine and silky. bright. fluffy
and easy TO manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. II is very
cheap. and a few ounces is enough

Then the 'Other man" comes along
and the woman secures a divorce.
This brings Friend Husband" TO a
realization of his mistakes and he
begins TO spruce up, to such an ex-

 Shippers will apply through the rail- road agent at the point of origin, to the grain control committee at the market to which they wish to send their product 1T conditions permit, permission for the shipment will be given promptly Otherwise. the ship ment will be delayed until storage fla cilities are such that the grain can be moved without causing freight con- gestion.

 Tt will be readily appreciated" q statement by Director eneral Hines said that not only producers and shippers of grain will be benefited by this regulation, but the entire shipping public will benefit, in that the channels of commerce will be kept free om con- gestion, car detention largely elimi- mated and the maximum use of all equipment more highly developed"
 Good weather and decreasing busi- ness, due 10 the cessation of shipment of war supplies, have tended to build up a large car surplus, which will be mobiliZed in the garin belt by the rail road administration as fast as needed. It is expected that the movement of the new crop will be limited rather by storage facilities than by railroad equipment

 huahua last Sunday morning would be the last for several days. Few people took advantage of the opportunity to leave for the border, the foreign colony having received assurances from Gen eral Felipe Angeles that they would not be molested in the event of the cap ture of the city by Villa forces.
 The Associated Press dispatch from Washington, announcing that the gov ernment had decided against permit ting CarranZa troops to travel over American territory to Juarez, was re- ceiVed with manifestations of joy by the families and friends of Americans resident in northern Mexico. These people, several hundred of whom re- side in Fl Paso have been in a state of semi-panic for the last three days, as nearly all of them are convinced that American aid to the Carranza cause would be the signal for gen. eral massacre and destruction of the property of Americans in territory controlled by Villa. The ease with which Villa and Angeles captured Par ral, one of the largest towns in the state Of Chihuahua, is pointed to as proving the inability of the federal forces to even protect themselves. Mining and other concerns with in- terests in Mexico made repeated ef- forts to get into wire communication with their representatives in Chihua- hua, but were told that the wires were being used by the military and that no civilian messages could be ac- cepted
