Alkali in Shampoos
Bad for Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos con-
tain too much alkali, which is very in
furious, as IT dries the scalp and makes
the hair brittle.
= The best thing to use is Mulsifed
cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure and
entirely greaseless. It's very cheap and
beats anything else all to pieces. You
can get Mulsifed at ANY drug store, and
few ounces will last the whole family
for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it I'D, about teaspoonful is all
that is required. 1t 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, wavy and easy to
handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out

l should have never requested him to

THE only remaining thing in the letter
IA the suggestion that the execution OF the
agreement proposed would be without
the practical value of being effective.
/ deny the force of the suggestion because
l am convinced the agreement, executed
and performed as it would be by both OF
us, would accomplish much.
The Corrupt Practices act which, by
the agreement, Mr.. Warner and | would
see that our party organization would
strictly adhere to, make it illegal for
single dollar to be spent for election pur-
poses unless that dollar passes through
the hands Of the treasurer Of political
organization, except insofar as candidates
themselves may advance money Tor the
carrying on of the campaign
1T goes without saying that COM
paratively little money is ordinarily ad-
vanced by the candidates for political
Office, because in the main, the candidates
are not rich men. ! venture the assertion
that all of the candidates OF the Repub-
lican party, both State and county, will
contribute during the present campaign a
very few thousand dollars at most. IL
follows, in consequence, that oil other
moneys contributed for campaign pur-
poses, under the law referred to, must
pass through the hands OF the treasurer OF
q political organization as indicated.
"Does Mr.. Warner mean to say that as
head Of the Republican party in Delaware
he cannot control the application OF
moneys in the hands of the treasurers OF
his several organizations, and cannot see
that they are directed to proper purposesY
/ am quite confident that | can accomplish
this end 80 far as the Democratic organiza-
tions are concerned.
y "Mr. Warner is business man OF long
experience, n man of force and power
under ordinary circumstances. Can 1t be
true that he is helpless in the present
sltuationY Ii seems to me that this must
be to some extent true, otherwise he
would never say that the agreement pro-
posed by me is not practical.
Having the confidence that i have In
the capacity of Mr.. Warner for effective
leadership, ] can reach no other conclusion,
and | believe right-minded citizens will
agree with me, than that there must be
some condition or some element in his
party, which is veritable Augean stable
which would bid him defiance in an effort
TO carry into effect the proposal which l
have offered. | say some condition or

turning and departing vacationists were
unable TO have baggage delivered today,

liver at least one half of the city's baggage.

business would be suspended because they
were unable to meet the demands.
Employees of taxicab companies which
anticipated handling baggage normally
transferred by the express companies
