Careless Use of Soap
Spoils the Hair
FOUNDER N
Z
Soap should be used very carefully.
If you want to keep your hair look
ing: its best. Most soaps and pre
pared shampoos contain too much
alkali. This dries the scalp, makeJ
the hair brittle, and ruins it.
The best thins for steady use is
Mulsiflcd cocoanut oil (which is pure
and sreaseless), and is better than
anything: else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub
it In. It makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, which rinses out eas
ily, removing every particle of oust,
dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The
hair dries quickly and evenly, and it
leaves the scalp, soft and the hair
fine and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy
and easy to manage.
Tou can get Mulsiflcd cocoanut oil
fhampoo at any pharmacy, it's very
cheap, and a few ounces will supplvl
every member of the family 10
months.

PITTSBURGH, May 13. H. J. Heinz,
proprietor of the Heinz Food Product
and a prominent Sunday school
worker, died in his home here yester
day of pneumonia.
Mr. Heinz was a native of Pitts
burgh. He was seventy-five years old.
After receiving his education in the
public schools and at business college
he turned to commercial pursuits, and
from a small beginning brought his
business to vast proportions. His
parents had intended to fit him for
the ministry, but with the excetpion
or a few years in his young manhood
his career has been concerned with
the business side of the manufacture
of pure food products.
Interested In Gardening.
AVhcn his parents moved to Sharps
burg, then a small village, where a
garden of about three acre's surround
ed the home, Mr. Heinz became inter
ested in gardening. As the garden
yielded more than the family required
the surplus was disposed of among-
the villagers.
The success which he met in han
dling garden products suggested to
him the Idea of engaging in the busi
ness of packing pure food products.
He started in a modest way in 1869.
The first factor' consisted of the
basement and one room of a dwelling.
The first product was horseradish.
packed in bottles. Soon the packing
of pickles and sauces and other foods
was added.
In 1872 greater facilities were needl
ed, and the business was moved to
this city. It grew steadily, until ncm
the main establishment occupies a
floor space of thirty acres.
Mr: Helnz's interest in higher edu
cation is indicated by the fact that
he was instrumental in founding and
was chief supporter of the Kansas banking Institutions and civil organ!-
The prevailing topic in Paris
today is the wholesale disappear
ance of the wives of Henri Desire
Landru. who has been arrested
by the Paris police. In two years
five wives of Landru, a resident
of Paris, have disappeared under
mysterious circumstances. Tresses
of women's hair tied with rib
bons and underlinen marked with
initials of the missing women
were found by the police when
tho modern Bluebeard's chateau
was searched. The police believe
the women were trapped by Lan
dru through matrimonial adver
tisements, several clippings of
which were also found at the
chateau.
City University.
Sunday School Worker.
In Sunday school work Mr. Heinz
was an international figure. He was
chairman of the executive committee
of the "World's Sunday School Associa
tion, for many years president of the
Pennsylvania Sabbath school and vice
president of the Sunday School Asso
ciation of London.
During all hi3 career Mr. Heinz took
an advanced position on the social
problem of the proper relations be
tween employer and employe. He al
ways took a great interest in
zations.
Mr. Heinz leaves two sons, Clifford
Heinz, at home, and Howard J. Heinz,
now in Europe as a member of the
United States Food Administration.
Howard Heinz also was State food
director of Pennsylvania.

TALLAHASSEE, FLA., May 15.
The senate today passed a bill in
tended to strengthen the Statewide
prohibition law by making it illegal
for druggists to sell whiskey or other
civic alcoholic drinks on prescription from

Africa. He 'says little of Okwawa
except to speak of the trouble the na

The dynasty to which Okwnwa be
longed was founded in 1700 by Mu
jumba, whose grave also was openeu
by the party under Von Prince. There
were several sultans before the time
of Okwawa, but he was the first to
have dealings with the white man.-
Several expeditions started out by
the Germans to exterminate this old
sultan ended with tho entire attack

was Okwawa beaten. In the end,
however, ho is said to have commit

L
XHW YOU1C. May IS. Those re
sponsible for the desecration of the
grave of Sultan Okwawa, whose skull
is demanded from Germany by the
peace treaty, have been found, It is
believed, by tho Oriental department
of the Public Library, through whoso
courtesy an authentic history has
been given of this leader of the AVa
hche tribes in Kast Africa, which for
more than twenty years fought Ger
man kultur.
Sultan Okwawa for years opposed
the inroads of Germanism while he
reigned over his tribe. The section he
ruled lies north of Portuguese East
Africa and east of Rhodesia, in the
high mountain country.
In a German history of their domain
Hcrr von Oberarzi Dr. Stierling. chie.r
surgeon of the German forces in East
Africa for .some years, tells of the
trip to Rungemba. the largest settle
ment in the region over which Ok
wawa ruled, which was led by Capt.
Tom. von Prince, who had fought the
sultan for years. This expedition
was made after Okwawa had commit
ted suicide.
Hanged Sulton'a Itelatlre.
The party reached Rungcmba, Dr
Stlerling relates, and there found Ok
wawa's son and also the head sullain s
brother and four half-brothers. True
to German custom, believing extinc
tion of a race essential toward the
introduction of "kultur," they hanged
Kawawinjlki. the sultan's brother,
and the four half-brothers, and ar
rested the son and other members of
the family.
The party then proceeded to the
spot where Okwawa was buried. There
his skull was unearthed by the party
and a picture taken of tho spot by
them.
It is in this same spot that Mujiinga,
founder of the Okwawa dynasty, was
buried, and it is believed that his
bones, too, were taken from their
resting place by Capt. von Prince.
The reason for the taking of Ok
wawa's skull to Germany Is given by
Dr. Stlerling as purely scientific, and
to allow "the famous professor, Dr.
Luschan, to measure it."
After Capt. von Prince and his
party had concluded their hanging
party in Rungemba they started for
the coast, taking with them Okwawa's
son and the rest of the royal family
as prisoners.
Capt. von Prince, who was in charge caliy every line of railroad serving
of the party, has also written a his-1 territory east of the Mississippi river

As a tribute to the lato Colonel
Roosevelt, Senator Calder of New
York intends to introduce a bill on
the opening day of the Sixty-sixth
Congress changing the name of the
Panama canal to the Roosevelt canal.
Former President Taft is one of the
strongest advocates of such a
memorial, which is indorsed by the
most prominent men in public life.
"My bill does not carry any appro
priation," said Senator Calder, "for
none Is necessary. The mere renam
ing of the great ditch after tho one
man who mnde It possible will be
sufficient to carry out our Idea. Of
course, I assume there will be appro
priate exercises when this rcdedlca
tion measure becomes law."
Inspiration for changing the name
of tho canal was received from Her
man Hagedorns book, "The Boy's Life
of Roosevelt," by Capt. Thomas But
ler, who suggested the plan to Sen
ator Calder.
Captain Butler was given his Idea
from reading of the energy and ac
tivity of the former President in con
nection with the building of the canal,
and from pictures showing Colonel
Roosevelt throwing dirt from the
"ditch."
