Hair Often Ruined by
Washing With Soap
Soup should be used very carefully,
if you want lo keep your hair looking
its best Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary mulsiiied cocoanut oil (which
is pure und -ireaseless), and is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing 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 easily,
removing e\ery particle of dust, 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.
You can get mulsifled cocoanut oil at
any pharmacy, it's very cheap and a
few ounces will supply every member
of the fandl> for months.

Makes Detailed Report. -1
The Broadwater committee did not
content itself with glittering gen

it made a complete canvass of every
part of the county, divided the county
into six districts and made a detailed
report on the conditions in each dis
trict—the acreage under cultivation,
the additional acreage that could be
cultivated, the wheat yield last year
of each district, the acreage seeded to
winter wheat, the condition of the
crop, acreage that will be planted to
spring crops, and the condition of the
farmers and their ability to increase
their operations.
The report closes with a summary
on the county as a whole. This is as

Rheumatism means that the blood
