Careless Shampooing
Spells the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully,
if you want to keep your hair looking
it's best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkili. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle,
and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is Null.
sified cocoanut oil shampoo (Which is
pure and greaseless), and is better
than anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. 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
to manage.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil
shampoo at any pharmacy, it's very
cheap, and a few ounces will supply
every member of the family for
months .-Advertisement.

"Doggiest" Year Ever for
Mems Clothes, Say Dealers;
Prices to Continue High

Despite high prices, Richmond mer-
chants report no decline in volume of
goods sold this year, to that of last
spring.
Retain clothiers anticipated a de-
cline in sales in their line as business
was exceedingly brisk last year be-
cause of the large number of return
ing soldiers needing complete "civvie''
outfits. However, since prohibition
went into effect, and from pride in
personal appearance learned in the
army, young men are putting on more
dog in clothes than before.
Merchants in women's apparel re-
port no loss of trade. Last year the
women used economy in purchasing
clothes as the men returned from the
army had to have a complete outfit
Prices are also high in women's
clothing.
Milliners say that as long as the
spring season continues to roll around
women will demand hats These
articles are also considerably higher
than last year but that don't make no
nevermind' to milady.

west to start for Richmond and home.
All through trains on the Pennsy are
loaded with returning tourists. Pull
man accommodations are at prem
ium and day cars are crowded with
people who ordinarily travel via par
lor Of Pullman cars.
Rail officials say the travelling fever
has struck the American public and
facilities are not great enough to meet
the demand. The extraordinary high
wages paid labor has caused men to
indulge in this luxury.
Farmers and Laborers Travel.

far outnumbered by the number OF

Churches of the Wayne County Fed
Grafton were urged Wednesday to I'm.
usual activity during the remaining
