HEAL COMMON SKIN-TROUBLES A Baltimore doctor suggests this simple, but well-tried and inexpensive home treatment for people suffering with ecze- ma, ringworm, rashes and similar iteh- ing, burning skin troubles At any reliable druggist's get a jar of resinol ointment and a cake of resinol soap. These are not at all expensive. With the resinol soap and warm water bathe the affected parts thoroughly, until \ they are free from crusts and the skin is softened. Dry very gently, apread on a thin layer of the resino] ointment, and cover with a light bandage, if necessary, to protect the clothing. This should be done twice a day. Usually the distress- ing itching and burning stop with the first treatment, and the skin soon be- comes clear and healthy agaln unless the trouble is due to some serious internal disorder.

Alkali Makes Soap Bad for Washing Hair Most soaps and prepared shampoos con- tain too much alkall, which is very in- ’ Jurious, as it dries the scalp and makes | the hair brittle. The best thing to use is just plain mul- sified cocoanut oll, for this is pure and . 28 & entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive s0aps or any- ' thing else all to pleces. You can get ¢ this at any drug store, and a few ounces § will last the who'e family for months. Simply moisten the hair with and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thor- . oughly, and rinses out easily. The halr dries quickly and Is soft fresh looking, bright, flufty, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and b dandruff.—Advertisement GREAT Clearing Sale Now On BEDDEO 1417 Douglas St. EKS BREAK-UP-A- COLD evenly, and THE OMAHA BEE— —THE HOME PAPER .
