Be Careful What You
Wash Your Hair With

Many soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much free alkali 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. 1t is very cheap
and beats anything else all to pieces.
You can get Mulsified at any drug
store, and a few ounces will last the
whole family for months.
Two or three teaspoonfuls of Mulsi-
fled in cup or glass with a little
warm water is all that is required.
Simply mOisten the hair with water
and rub the Mulsified cOcoanut oil in.
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,

was given further detailed reports on
the investigation which had been made
of the recent operations of the rum
running fleet in the vicinity of High
lands, y. j. The reports were not made
public. but there was no disposition
at prohibition headquarters to deny the
probability that n considerable amount
of liquor was landed.
Alcohol used in the bootleg trade is
believed by prohibition officials TO come
largely from stocks denatured by the
addition of quinine sufficient to make
the solution nauseating as drink. Ii
has been found that by the use of a
simple and easily procured reagent, the
quinine can be precipitated ana the
clarified alcohol then syphOned off for
any use the owner desires.
Another denaturing formula believed
to have been solved by bootleggers is
that which produces the industrial al
cohol known commercially as "asoprO-
cryl." Careful distillation, in the
process of which the temperature is
held at a given degree. is said to en-
able the operator TO draw off drink

among these being that issued TO one
of the largest slcohol-producing plants
in the country.
Decision TO withdraw the license Of
this plant. and to refuse TO reissue doz-
ems for which applications were pend
ing, was reached at conference OF
prohibition enforcement officials attend
ed by Acting Commissioner Jones, Act
ing Director Yellowly Of New York
and heads of the principal bureaus at
Headquarters here. 1t is understood
that reports submitted By Mr.. Yellowly
of his investigations into the sources
of Christmas beverages had much to
do with the order.
Mr.. Yellowly is known to have Sc
cured evidence which convinced him
that the great bulk of this supply was
of domestic manufacture with illegally
diverted alcohol used as n base. Much
Of the alcohol was declare: by prohi-
btion agents to have been re-rectified
from stocks supposedly denatured in
accordance with government regula-
tons.
Investigation made by Mr.. 6ellOwly
in New York of recent supplies OF boot
