m A Splendid Shampoo
If you want to keep your hajr In good
condition, bo caieful what ou wash
It with.
Most soaps end prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. Tills dries
the Bcalp, makes tho hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulslflcd
cocoonut oil (which Js pure and entire
ly greaseless). Is much bettor than the
most expensive soap or anything else
you can use for shampooing, as this
can't possibly Injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub It In, One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundnnco of rich, creamy
lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly, Tho lather rinses out easily
nnd removes every particle of dust, dirt,
dandruff, nnd cxcesslvo oil. Tho hair
dries quickly and evenly, and It leaves
It fino and silky, bright, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulslflcd cocoanut oil at
most any drug stoie. It Is very cheap,
and a few ounces Is enough to last every
one In th fa ml') f- nrmMi- Advt.

Intimately acquainted ' with the Intri
cate details of uie Industrial life of
this nation. We now know' that it is
upon us that must fall the responsibility
In any future event of war, of marshal
ing our national manufacturing and prat
duclng resources In support of our)
fighting line. Nearly two years of' the
Turopean struggle- has taught us that
we muit revise our entire past concep
tion of war. A failure on the part of
foreign countries to perfect plans calm-It-
and efficiently In time of peace has
led to such economic confusion and to
such fata' delay In Industrial mobilisa
tion that the costs both In lives' and
money may be counted only by the mil
lions. We have learned that organized.
Industry Is the bedrook upon, which
we must build our dfenslve structure."
