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

| When you wash children's hair be care
| full what you use. Many soaps and pre-
pared shampoos contain too much free
aIkali. which is very injurious, as it dries
| the scalp and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsifed cocoa
nut oil shampoo, for this Is pure and en-
| tirely greaseless. 1t is inexpensive. and
! beats anything else all to pieces.
| /, Two or three teaspoonfuIs is all that is
required. Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. 1t makes an abun-
dance of rich, creamy lather, which cleanses
/ thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The
| hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft.
/ fresh-looking, bright, fluffy, wayy and easy
/ to manage. Besides, it loosens and takes
| out every particle Of dust, dirt and dand-
ruff. You can get Mulsifed cocosnut oil
shampoo at any drug store. and a few

The old-fashioned virtues are
the country's great need-the
idea that labor is honrable, and
that young people must be taught
useful occupations, for example,
was the theme of a recent talk
by Dr.. F. F. Nader, director Of
general college extension for the
State College of Washington, be-
fore the Chehalis Rotary Club.
We must cling, said he, to the
old fashioned idea, which con-
trjbuted so much to the success
of our country and its develop
ment, that labor, manual or 9TH
erwise, is honorable: that our
young people must be taught use
full occupations; and finally we
must cling to the fundamentals
of the United States as a repre-
sentative government. The two
former ideas are accepted on
sight, but ali too often forgotten
in actual practice. Chehalis

Evidence Of return to sanity
is found in the choice of reading
matter which the public has been
