Don't Spoil Your Child's
Hair By Washing 1t

When you wash your child's hair be
careful what you use. Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain too much
alkaIi, which is very injurious, as it
dries the scalp and makes the hair
brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsified
cocoanut oil shampoo. for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap and beats anything else all to
pieces.
Two or three teaspoonfuls of AIulsi-
fled in a cup or glass with a little
warm water is all that is required.
Simply Tnoisten the hair with water.
and rub it in. 1t makes an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thor
oughly. 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 every particle of dust,
dirt and dandruff. You can get Null
sified at any drug store. and a few
ounces will last everyone in the family
for months Be sure your druggist
gives you Mulsified.-Adv.

SHORTAGE OF COAL HERE
Only Small Quantities Can Be Secured
by Topeka Dealers.

There is but little coal in the yards
of dealers in Topeka. Only small
quantities can be secured by the deal
ers themselves, and are not sufficient
to fill the orders already in. Some
classes of coal are available, but they
are not suitable for the trade, and are
not being handled.
Several of the yards are closed and
will remain closed until August or
September.
Dealers do not believe that there
will be real coal famine this winter.
They believe that the mines will re-
sumo operations before that time and
will be able to supply the demand.
Slightly higher prices are ANTICIPATED.

Cambridge Rowers Defeat Oxford m
 Their Annual Race
By Associated Press

Putney England, April 1.-cam- bridge easily defeated Oxford in their annual boat race over the Putney- to- Mortlake course on the Thames to- day, the Light Blue winning for four and one-half lengths and thereby recording it's fourth consecutive vic tory.
 The official time was 1s minutes. 27 seconds.
 The race was a one-sided affair, lacking the thrills of last years con- test when the rivals see-sawed the entire distance. The Oxford crew finished in an exhausted state, five of the men, including the stroke, ap- bearing much distressed. while only one man in the Cambridge boat was affected
 The Cambridge crew averaged 179A pounds and the Oxford rowers 172. There were five veterans in each boat.
 As q precaution against drowning or damage to the boat, Cambridge insured the life of each member of the crew for E500 and insured the boat for Ef25 This was the first time in history that such precau- tion was taken.
 oxford packers before the race claimed that April Fools day was a good omen for their crew, as within the past 40 years the race had been rowed five times April 1 and OK ford won each time.
