Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo
If you want to keep yonr hair in good
condition, be careful what yoa wash it
with.
Most soaps and prepared stiampood
contain too rrmch alkali. This dries the
fcalp, makes tne hair brittle, and is very
harmful. Just plain mulsified cocoanut
oil (which is pure and entirely grease
less), is much better than the most ex
pensive soap or anything else you can
use for shampooing, as this can't pos
sibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The lather rinses out eas
ily ind removes every particle of dust,
dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The
hair dries quickly and evenly, and it
leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and
easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at
most any drug store. It is vegr cheap,
and a few ounces is enough to last
everyone in the family for months.
Jected to having any relations with
the rear, no matter how important it
might be. This does not mean an
Immediate movement on Berlin, but
it shows what may be called the
tendency. 5
