Careless Use of Soap
Spells the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully,
if you want TO keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, kld ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and greaseless). and is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with. water and rub it
in. II makes an abundance OF rich,
creamy lather which rinses out easily,
removing every particle Of dust, dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and il leaves
the scalp soft, and the hair line and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy AMI easy
to manage.
You can get mulsified cocaanut oil at
any pharmacy, its very cheap, ana a
few ounces will supply every member
of the family for months.

In his address on ROOSEVELT the
Statesman Sunday morning Mr.. Rey-
nolds said: For constructive work and
individual initiative no president, in
deed, no American, ever achieved re-
suits comparable to those achieved by
Roosevelt the seven years he was the
head of this government Some of his
great achievements were the passage
of such measures as the Dolliver-Hep-
burn railroad act, the employers LA
bility act, the establishment of the de-
partment of commerce and labor, pure
food and drugs act, federal meat in
speetion, navy doubled in tonnage and
greatly increased in efficiency, the bat
tleShip fleet sent around the world.
state militia brought into coordination
with army. the canal zone acquired
and the work of excavation pushed
with great energy, settlement of the
coal strike in 1902, the settlement of
the Russo japanese war, the Inaugural
ton of an annual governors conference
and of the greatest of all modern
movements-the improvement of the
conditions of country life. No one now
doubts that this movement is one of
| the greatest as well as the sanest of
our times. When Roosevelt appointed
| the commission it was ridic1lled and
| caricatured everywhere throughout the
| country, Congress refused to finance
| it and the work for time fell into
neglect But its hour had come and
| in spite of the policy Of narrow mind
| ed would be statesmen. the whole ma
ton has now caught the idea in the
mind of Roosevelt and measured the
gulf between the mind of a statesman
and the narrow conception of con-
! gress of little men who would have
| killed the whole movement if they
! could have done so. The hymn Only
Remembered was sung by Miss Ruth
