Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

II you want to keep your hair In
good condition, be careful what you
wash II with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful Aulsined cocoanut
oil (which is pure and entirely grease
iess) Is much better than anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub IL in. One or two tea
spoonfuls wilfy make an abundance
OF rich, creamy lather, and cIeanses
the hair and scalp thoroughly. The
lather rinses out easily and removes
every particle of dust dirt, dand ;
rum and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and IL leaves IL
fine and silky. bright. fluffy and easy
TO manage.
You can get Mulsined cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. IL is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough

Former Congressman j. Harry Gov.

the committee yesterday afternoon
that he was for Palmer for President
"even IL Palmer had been against the
Administration" and absolutely in
dependent OF the fact that Palmer, as
alien property custodian, had thrown
certain fees In his way as an attor-
ney for German corporations taken
over by the Government
Because he was a Palmer man. Gov
ington observed parentheticaily, he
was not sent as a Maryland delegate
TO the San Francisco convention, and
he had found "a combination" against
him at the State convention.
The Maryland delegation, Covins-
ton said, although "uninstructed,"
was evidently a McAdoo delegation.
Who were the leaders OF the COM
binstion against you?" asked Senator
Reed.
"All OF the politicians over there
apparently" said Covinston, smiling.

Smith and the city leaders from BaI

go Oh the delegation"
The colloauy regarding Maryland
politics came when Covington was
asked IL the Palmer managers had
anything to show that McAdoo was a
candidate for the Presidency. Sena-
tor Kenyon said the committee had
been unable to place it's finger on
the McAdoo candidacy although IL OBJ
tanned a little information about Nc
Adoo activity from a witness at the
morning session.
Covington srinned when McAdoo
was mentioned and volunteered his
experience at the State convention.
What about McAdoo?' asked Sen
ator Kenyon. "We have been trying
to find out something about him
here"
81 haven't much information" said
Covington. but / know that l found
at our convention an apparent com
bination over there which / could
not make a dent in"
Just what was the combination"
II do not know. except for indica-
tions that the Maryland deleg ates
were to be for McAdoo," said Coving-
ton.
