FIRST TRIP AS COMMANDER FULL
 OF PER|LS FOR CAPT. WALDO DAT

Capt. G.. Waldo Dat, son of MT. and Mrs. John B. Dat of 101 Cliff street, and youngest captain in the marine service in the United. States; Nas re- turned home after his first trip as cofnmdnder, 8 trip that included some c! tile most narrowing experiences, mutiny, the worst gale in years. ice does. floating mines, near capsizing, picking tip a disabled steamship and being foghound for four days. The trip covered practically 1s.000 miles and was the hardest trip in Captain Oats eight years on the sea.
 The. start of the voyage was as peaceful and uneventful as any. In command of the good ship Dalaro, owned by the Brooks Steamship com pany, Captain Dat left New York for Philadelphia on June 7th, arriving at Philadelphia, where he took on a mis- ctllaneous cargo which included any thing from. pig iron to benzine. Eeav- ing Philadelphia, bound for Copen- hagen, things went we'll for few hundred miles. then Dame Luck took a dislike to the ship and camped in the forecastle for the remainder of the 1 trip. First the engine went wrong, 1 one boiler was cut out and the speed cut down. Repairs were made and then | the tubes started leaking again and l again engine trouble caused delay. About 300 miles out a message was | received to pick up the Neabseo, which was. disabled near the Azores.
 The ceurse. was changed and the Daiano started for the disabled steam CT, which was picked up off .Horta. The Neabsco was a much larger vessel 1 than the Dalano and difficulty in tow ing was great. After getting a line kab6ard Captain Oat headed for Havre l France, but the engines again gave trouble and he had to put into Jeixoes

arose with one of the crew and in try ins to stop the trouble the members of the crew drew d knife on Captain Dat but was prevented from doing any dafnage. The mtititiy was quelled soon after it started and those who partici- pated in it were left at Copenhagen.
 From Copenhagen the Dalano went to kallunborg then to Gothetborg and again to Copenhagen. Leaving Coz penhagen in a heavy sea and the wind blowing a gale the Dalaro made fer Hernuosand and after three. days of travelling through ice fields in which ice II to IS inches thick was en- countered, she made port It was only with the assistance of two ice break CTS that the ship was able to get into l port. From Hernuosahd the palan6 started on the return trip touching at | Copenhagen for a cargo of wood pulp l and from there to England. Leaving England the day before Christmas in the teeth of a gale, 6ie of the worst | that had been experienced on the English coast, the Dalano headed for | the states. After experiencing heavy /, seas and head winds the engines again l went bad and Captain Dat was forced to make for the Azores. The wind and water were hitting the vessel

Be Careful What You
 Wash Your Hair With

Most soaps and prepared shsmpoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp anR makes the hair brittle.
 The best thing to use is Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure and entirely greasless. It's very cheap and beats anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months.
 Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather cleanses thoroughly. and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking bright, fluffy, wayy, and easy 60 handle Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust dirt and dandruff. -
