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 sham
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brit
tie, and is very harmful. Mulsified
cocoanut oil shampoo (which is pure
and entirely greaseless) is much bet
ter than anything else you can use
for shampooing, as this can't pos
sibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an album
dance of rich, creamy lather, and
cleanses the hair, and scalp thor
oughly. The lather rinses out cas-.
lily, and removes every particle OF
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive
oil. The hair dries quickly and even
ly, and it leaves it fine and silky,
bright, fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut
oil shampoo at most any drug store.
It is very cheap, and a few ounces
is entugh to last everyone in the
family for months.

DISCREPANCY IS

WEIGHT IN CITY
Fifteen.Cent Loaves Vary In
Size from, % to II IL

dard Loaf.

The weights of loaves of bread be-
ing sold in Omaha this week for Is
cents each, range from % to l71z
ounces, according to an announce
ment by ]. w. Long. city inspector
of weights and measures.
Mr.. Long bought l5-cent loaves
made by all local bakers and
weighed each sample. He reported
the lightest loaf, which weighed
17H ounces, was produced by the
largest bakery, and the largest
loaves were offered by the small
bakers.
He found no 24-ounce 15-cent
loaves, but he learned that two
small bakers are selling 16-ounce
loaves at 10 cents, which is equiva-
lent to "a ounces for Is cents.
Quantity Doesn Lower Price:
"What puzzles me-" Mr.. Long
said, ''is the wide difference between
the loaves sold by the small bakers
and those offered by the largest
bakery in Omaha. / have been led
to believe that quantity production
tended toward reduction in price,
but in the case of bread in Omaha
this seems to have revers. effect"
Bakers claim the differences are
due to variation in quality.
Mr.. Long stated that he will re-
new his efforts before the city coun-
Gil to obtain the passage of an or
dinance requiring standard bread
weights in Omaha. He believes
that patrons should know the weight
of a loaf of bread when they buy it.
"Our law requires that a bushel
and tushel of apples 48 pounds.
and there are standard weights and
measurements for nearly every ar
ticle of tcod except bread" the in
spector added. The city commits
sioners are inclined to approve In
spector Longs contention.

There is no reason for any man
or woman to sit in a corner and give
up the pleasures of life-the joy Of
tliving-the social and business &C.
Invites that make life worth while.
In middle life and old age the
celN Of the body are not recon-
structed as rapidly as in youth. The
cell-salts so abundant in the rich red
blood Of youth are insufficient in
the blood of older people. The heart
action slows down, the circulation
of the blood slackens, the blood lacks
sufficient supply of vitalizing oxy-
gen and the organs of the body fail
to function.
The body in youth possesses more
heat than in middle life or old age.
That's because there is an abun-
dance of cell-salts in the blood when
the body is young-and the blood is
rich in oxygen, which burns up and
eliminates the waste tissues and
worn out cells. In youth the quick,
hot blood urges to action and the
body renews itself quickly.
As we grow older we slow down,
sit in a sunny corner and give up.
We fail to learn the lessons of life
and weakly surrender to fear, wor-
ry and imaginary diseases that are

cell-salts that she must have to keep
the body strong and vigorous, and
