Of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kid
neys active and clean, and the mo-
ment you feel an ache or pain in
the kidney region, get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any good
drug store here. take tablespoon
full in a glass of water before
breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This

Hair often Ruined By
Careless Washing

Soap should be used very care
fully. 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. and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
lust ordinary mulsified cocoanut
oil (Which is pure and greaseless),
and is better than anything else
you can use.
one or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thor
oughly. Simply moisten the hair
with water and rub it in. 1t
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 it leaves the scalp soft,
and the hair fine and silky, bright,
lustrous, fluffy and easy oman
age.
You can get mulsified cocoanut
oil at any pharmacy. it's very
cheap. and few ounces will sup
ply every member of the family
for months.
