used for fire water in hope they with
refuse to sell further to Indians for
purposes of consumption. George, the |

Use Cocoanut Oil
 For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in good condition, be careful what you wash it with.
 Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Muisifed eocoanut oil shampoo (which is pure and en- tirely greaseless), is much better than anything else you can use for sham pooing, as this can't possibly injare the hair.
 Simply rn6isten your hair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls will make an abundance of rich, creamy father; 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 shampoo at most any drug store It is very cheap, and a few ounces is enough to last everyone in the family for months.
