Most soaps and Prepared shampoos contain too much alkall, which is very injurious, as it dries the ecalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is just plain musified cocoanut oil, for this is pure @nd entirely greaseless. It's very theap, and beats the most expensive goaps or anvthing else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, #nd a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water &nd rub it in, about a teaspoonful is &l that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evennly, and is soft. fresh looking, bright, fuffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle ow dust, dirt and dandruff. be given his choice of ;ligm questionnaire anq beinginducted into the service at once, sor iServing a lon_gterm in the federal prison.

Williams, Who was prom- inent in political circles in this town: British Expeditionary Forees, March 7, 1918. Rev. Father Keefe, Plainfield: Dear Father Keefe: 1 am just thinking of Plainfield and all the folks there, and it seems as if it is all a_dream to be here amidst all this war business, after being in that peaceful town, I can’t say much on account of the censorship, but will have a great story. to tell you when I Se¢ you again. How is everything,in the good old burg? I get letters from my wife, but you know she is a very quiet person and seldom goes away from home, so she never can tell me any of the nmews or of things that happen around the town. Are. you interested in coins of different coun- Ptries? I am, and am making quite a collection of them, especially the Ital- ian coins. I have got hold of a few of the church coinage, a few soldas, with the pope’s head on them, and will try to get a-few more to bring home for some of my Catholic friends in town. They will appreciate them as much as anything, I imagine, as I know they interest me, although I am not a church member. I hope to visit Rome before I get - |home. "I have been to church eeveral times, and it is very interesting, if from ‘only a historical point of view, to sit in a church that has been in _|use for hundreds of vears and think that maybe some of the old saints and 1|dignitaries of Christianity founded them in the old days, for after all this is the cradle of our civilization and Christianity. Some of the churches have wondér- ful work in them, in the line of archi- tecture and carvings, in wood _and marble, as well as paintings. 1 am learning to speak Italian and hope to be able to speak the language before I get back. Fancy me addressing the italian voters for the congressional or senatorial district next election, in the interest of the democratic party can- didates. Hey! What? Remember me to Eddie Dougherty and my other friends in town, and please excuse pencil writing, as pen and ink are among the things that “used to be.” I am sifting on my kit in the hut and it is raining like—the place we hope to escape after ;we leave this mundane, Hoping you are in the “pink of health.” as’ they say here, I remain, Truly yours, C.
