Don't Spoil Your Hair
by Washing It

When you wash your hair, be careful
what you use. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain TO much alkaii. which
is very injurious. as it dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use Is Mulsified CO.
coanut oil shampoo, for this is pure and
entirely greaseless. It's very cheap
and beats anything else all to pieces
You can get this at any drug store, and
q few ounces will last the whole family
for months
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about teaspoonful is all
that Is required. 1t makes an abund-
ance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses
thoroughly, and rlnses out easily. The
hair dries quickly and evenly. and is
soft, fresh looking. bright, fluffy wavy
and easy to handle. Besides. it loosens
and takes out every particle of dust
dirt and dandruff. adv
