Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair II
good condition. be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is
very harmful. Mulsified cocoanut oil
shampoo (which il pure and entirely
greaselessl, is much better than any
thing else You can use for shampooing,
as this can't possibly iniure the hair.
Simply put two Of three teaspoonfuls
of Mulsified in cup or glass with a
little warm water, then moisten your
hair with water and rub it in II will
make an abundance OF rich, creamy
lather, and cleanse the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The lather rinses out cas-
lily, and removes every particle Of dust,
dirt, dandruff and excess oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and il leaves
it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil
shampoo at any drug store. Il is very
cheap, and a few ounces Is enough to
last everyone in the family for months
Be sure your druggist gives you Mulsi-

CORN is STILL
BACKYARD
Prospects for Potato Crop Are Very
Irregular But Generally Look
ing Well on Dry Ground.


/ Wakefield, Mass, Aug. u. More sun
4 shine than usual Of late has prevailed
| during the week and temperatures have
averaged slightly warmer. This condi-
ton has been favorable for growth Of
vegetation, as rule.
| Corn il still backward and the color
is poor generally, in many fields. Too
much moisture and cool nights have
been nnfayorable for its growth.
/ Small grains are generally doing
well and promise good yields except
that in Connecticut oats are looking
badly in the western section.
Having is progressing and the yields
have been heavy, as rule. Especially
heavy yields of timothy are reported
| from northern Maine. In Vermont oats
are being cut for hay quite generally
in many areas, due to the poor outlook
for the corn crop. The quality of the
hay crop varies greatly. In some see
tons. due to continued rains at har-
vest, badly cured hay has gone into
the barns.
The prospects for the potato crop
are very irregular. In Aroostook coun
~ heavy June rains caused consider
able damage, both to the acreage and
Ito growth of the plans. Good growing
weather in July caused the plants to
improve greatly except on wet ground
and where not otherwise damaged by
rains. As a rule, the tubers have set
well but in some sections Of the coun-
.ty there are many black spots in the
fields. showing considerable missing
Late blight is quite common, but has
not yet caused much deterioration. In
this county the crop is now going
through critical period and much de-
ponds on the future weather conditions.
The cobblers seem to be ripening off
rather premsturely. In the other states
the crop Is generally looking well on
dry grouod, but on low, wet lands the
condition is low.
The condition of the apple crop has
continued TO fall somewhat in all states
except Massachusetts,. Scab and other |
diseases are quite prevalent and insects
have done much damage The heavy
drop has continued through July and |
earlier in the season continued rains !
prevented sufficient spraying The APP |
pearance Of the crop is very varied. |
In some good orchards the fruit is very !
large for the season, and is coloring |
better than usual. In many Others it |
varies greatly in size, is scabby and |
much affected with fungus In Massa.
chusetts the crop has at least held its
own OF late and may have somewhat
heavier yield than has recently been
expected
Pastures are in excellent conditions,
az a rule. in all sections.
All classes of livestock seems to be in
good cndition at present.
While no great change in the general
agricultural condition has taken place
Of late. but little progress in the direc-
ton OF improvement has been made.

Asininity and Poor Breeding of Ameri
can Business Men Shown.

A writer in Panama paper of re.
cent date DESCRIBES seeing a letter
written by prominent South Ameri-
can business house and addressed to a
well known American concern. II wa.
neatly type written in fsultless
Spanish, worded in the usual polite
Spanish terms. 1t requested informa
tion about prices on certain goods
which the South American house
wished TO buy.
On the bottom, scrawled in pencil
and signed by representative of the
American house. was the following
note: IF you will kindly write this
in English we may be in position to
fill your order. Your" etc.
The South American house when the
letter was thus returned decided TO do
business with European firm.
Although this may well be an ex-
treme case il is undoubtedly true that
many American exporters pay too lit
tie attention to form and courtesy. In
this particular instance the writer of
the penciled note never stopped TO
think of the possible effect of his &C
tion. Nor did he even go far enough to
imagine himself in like situation
and TO think what he would do If he
had sought TO purchase from South
American house and having written in
English had received his letter back
with penciled note in Spanish ask
ing him to use that language.
Thanks in no small measure to the
effects of the cult OF business letters"
which swept over the country some
wear ago. American business men are
given to sacrifice everything for direct
ness. Brevity has been at such
premium that il has often lowered be-
tween abruptness and downright rude
ness
Recently. IL is true, courtesy" has
been the password among many who
seek to teach ''business letter writing.
But the campaign for courtesy still has
a long wsy to 70 to be thoroughly sue
cessful Especially is this true in the
field Of foreign trade, for to most
Europeans and South Americans our
letters seem 10 lack quality which !
they value highly--s proper regard for

nal relations New York Tribune.

ANOTHER VIRGIN ISLANDER PASS
ED AWAY.

After all illness of two months and two
days, Mrs. E. Crowd (born Geo"~~l
native of Frederiksted, St. Croix, pc
away at the home of her sister Miss
isabella E. George 118 West 135th ST. on
Tuesday April 18th.
The funeral services which took place
on Friday 18th inst had the largest
following of Virgin Islanders ever e
in this country.
This was due to the fact that her sister
Miss George is the most popular woman
to be found residing in these United
States that hail from our shores.
Miss George is known as the one true,
kind and constant friend, loyal and en-
tirely devoted to her own native people.
She is always the first to be at the call
Of those in sickness and distress.
At the funeral services there vas no
room in her apartment to accommodate
the very large gathering.
They filed in the hallway, on the
stairs and en- the very streets.
Mr.. John Darlington Of St, Cro:x and
perhaps the only Virgin Islander who is
an undertaken here, conducted the
funeral services.

Dear Sir

Dear Sir
1t is very gratifying to observe the
