 That the letters which mentioned Ambassador O'Brien were introduced while Claude T. Hamilton, vice pres ident of the Michigan Trust com pany, and chairman of the Kent county republican committee vas testimony. The defense tried to eX- clude them because they were writ ten in September, 1919.
 Preliminary questioning by MT. Daley brought out that Hamilton had been informed of the "expense" connected with sending 10000 New berry form letters to members of the club. He said on cross examination that Ambassador O'Brien prepared this letter.
 The first letter mailed to Washing ton by Hamilton September 15, 1919, said that the county committees budget had been exceeded in the 1918 campaign and that Hamilton Chad to put up for the deficit" it also said:
 "We formed the Gold Star club sending out a letter to each soldiers family in the country. This letter was signed by members who had lost sons or relatives in the war. It had a tremendous influence and was exclusively for the senatorial cam paign. The cost was $330 and would be very glad if you would see that this was refunded"
 The letter stated Congressman Mapes and John Blodget were ia miliar with the affair and added:
 Ambassador O'Brien. now in Wash ington, is also familiar with this matter: he served on the subcommit- tee which put this over."

Hair Often Ruined
 by Careless Washing

Soap should be used very careful ly, if you want to keep your hair looking it's best. Most soaps and pre- pared shampoos contain too much al- kali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it.
 The best thing for steady use is Mulsified 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 thorough ly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It 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 . few ounces will sup |ply svesy menber ef III Semily fpS '''s''' " 4f1
