Careless Shampooing
Spells the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully.
If you want to keep your hair looking

shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and .uins it.
The best thing for steady use is Null
sified oocoanut oil shampoo (Which is
pure and greaseless), and is better
than anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls of Mulsi-
fled 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,

every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries

You can get Mulsified COG anut oil

cheap, and a few ounces will supply
every member of the family for
months. Be sure your druggist gives
