The best thing to use is Mulsified cocoanut oll shampoo, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap and beats anything else all to pleces. You can get Mulsified at any dry store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Two or three teaspoonfuls of Mul- sified in a cup or glass with a little warm water is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handlée. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dandruff.

The locals led the game up to the sighth inning by the score of 4 to 2 ind the game seemed clinched for a certainty. However, it became dark suddenly at that time and it was dif- sult for both teams to see the ball but the session was so interesting that instead of calling the game, which would have resulted in a victory for the Aces, they decided to continue to the end. This move proved disastrous tor the Plainville men as the Read- ville players scored three runs by treak plays. Miss Travers, hailed as the feature attraction of the game and having ex- hibited her talents before Manager John McGraw of the New York Giants some time ago, pitched a good game She was hit rather hard and every one of the nine hits of the Aces was clean Mabel reached first base once Cunningham —that was all i and these tu The Aces had Goeb on the mound men allowed the Readville players but six hits.

Yesterday's act of reunion is rect result of the pressure events growing out of the economic and po- | litical post war situation in Germany which for more than a year has con- vinced the aders of both factions that the German social democracy must again become a firmly co-ordin- |ated unit in order to protect its poli- tical and trade union prestige and| continue to exert a dominant influence | on the government Since the break which occurred in| Septembef, 1516, over the question of voting war credits and other palicies with which the party was confronted by reason of the World War, the ranks of the German socialists have | been rent by internecine strife, which with the advent the republic and the menace of bolshevism became more intense, The d>mand for fusion | has also been accelerated by the growing opposition hy the bourgeoisie to what is considered the threatened radicalism Germany and the ag gressiven of German industrialism and big finance By pooling its mandates the reunit ed party will command 169 out of 469 (seats in the Reichstag.
