May 26.—Gen. Hughes tonight issued a statement denying certain assertions fnade by Pte. Holmes a Court, a Prince Albert man, wounded, and who informed tlie press that he was sent home as a prisoner. Holmes a Court said that "he and five other wounded men from the Princess Patricias were marched with the prisoners through the streets of Shorncllffe under military guard." According to Gen. Hughes, Capt. Anderson, who was in charge of the party, says that this charge is untrue.

These men were not treated at any time as prisoners, he says, but were under military discipline and were not allowed to run out of the train at different stations. On the ship coming over, Capt. Anderson says, those who were being returned as undesirables were not kept in confinement, as prisoners nre rarely ever kept in confinement. Thoy crossed as steerage passengers and occupied separate places. The undesirables -were tn one place, the medically unfit as welt as the wounded were in another. AM were steerage passengers.

The Triumph was credited in the official reports with having set lire to the town of Maidos during Uie bombardment. H.M.S. Triumph was a 1H04 battleship of 11,800 tons. It had four 10- inch guns, 14 7.6 inch, 14 14-pounders and four 6.5-pounders and had a speed of 10.6 knots.

EXPECT IR FOR A ll OUST IHE ONO poses should bo exclusively directed to the issue of the war." 8upreme Effort Necessary. Lord Lanadowne In opening the meeting, said that ordinarily he disliked coalition hut the conditions at present were extraordinary. "The country," ho said, "is making stupendous efforts, the most stupendous efforts it has ever been called upon to make. We do not even yet know what dimensions these efforts may prove to 'be. New theatres of war unfold themselves before us; new developments, some of them of the most sinister and trying kind, are taking place dny by day and we must all of us be convinced that at such a moment nothing but a supreme effort on the part of the whole nation will be sufficient to meet the difficulties and th© "opposition in front of us. "The country," continued Lord Lansdowne, "has already experienced not a few disappointments. There have been shortcomings, miscalculations— somo probably excusable, some of them perhaps not. There has toeen something amiss with the national organization of the country. Staying Power Taxed. "We are not sure that wo are getting enough men, or if wo are getting the rig-hit men. As to munitions, I will not dwell on this painful chapter. But it is a matter of common knowledge that tho failure to supply essential munitions, not once, but many times, has interfered with the progress of the military operations. If this, or half of this is true, it means that the staying power of the country Is going to be taxed aa It never was before, and If we aro going to pull through it must not be ay the efforts of one party or any party but toy the efforts of the whole nation1." Lord Lansdowne explained that the Unionist leaders considered that a national election would have beon a disaster of the first magnitude. They had therefore accepted the premier's1 invitation. War Is Only Question, Andrew Bonar Law said that just as tho Unionists toad decided that there must be a change, he had received a letter from the prime minister suggesting coalition and had immediately replied accepting the invitation. He regretted that John Redmond had not joined the governiment. which, if it was to succeed must be a national government in reality as well as in name. The only chance of success was that every member should act as a loyal colleague and without any idea that that result was to bo got by a compromise on any question—home rule, the Welsh church or anything else which they regarded as vital. They must put aside everything until the war was finished and regard the war as tho only thing they had to deal with. The meeting adjourned without tho adoption of any formal resolution.

Northcliffe Papers Declare Country No Longer Blind and Only Waits for Leadership It Has Lacked (By Daily News Leased Wire.) LONDON, May 21.—The Mail and other papers, known us "the Northcliffe press," continue the persistent campaign devoted to justifying the attacks on Lord Kitchener on the question of. the supply of ammunition. Taking as their text the constitution of tho new national ministry they point to the unexpected strength and tenacity the Germans are displaying In all the theatres of the war and the necessity of the heaviest sacrifices if the war Is to bo brought to tho desired end. The Times In an editorial says: "Tho mistakes and shortcomings will bo Quickly -.rectified. The scales are falling from English eyes and the country looks the situation In the fuco boldly and without dismay. "Nobody now expects the war to end for a long time to come. The country is no longer blind; It haa begun , to see the truth but lt awaits a lead. All eyes are turned to thn new government In the hope that lt Willi furnish tl/.- leudershlp which has been too long lacking." The Mall says: "We can recruit almost as many men as tho Germans can and we shall need them If we aro ever to accomplish the march to Berlin so loudly •boasted of by optimists a few months ago." The Mail strongly advocates recourso to the United States for ammunition supplies and says: "It la calculated that there are no fewer than 17,000 metal working bust nessea In the United States alot/e that could help us in the manufacture of war munitions."

THING OF PAST Useless and Senseless Habit Has Gone Out of Fashion in Major Leagues. Tlie senseless pastime of umpire baiting Is becoming a relic of the dark ages o[ baseball, says an eastern exchange. In former years, attacking the umpire verbally, and sometimes physically on every closo decision, was considered the prerogative of managers and players, while many si'rlbes alibied for their defeats by blaming the poor judge of play! That lime passed long ago and Intelligent players today realize that nothing is gained and much may be lost by getting into rows with the umpire, who is in lull charge of the game on the field and is as essential to the pastime sis the players themselves. Any fair man who knows the big league umpires will have to acknowledge that they are a fair-minded and conscientious set of men, anxious to do thoir duty to the best of their ability, playing no favorites and giving each decision as It comes up, exactly as they see it. Umpires, as a rule, are much fairer than the ball players. The latter will try to work every small advantage, will resent the slightest criticism of their work no matter how well found- od it may bo and will alibi for themselves and ono another in the boldest manner. Umpires, on the other hand, are as a rule, very fair, and willing to admit making a mistake. Their position is a difficult one. The umpire behind tho plate, calling balls and strikes, as well as making all decisions at the plate and sometimes at third base, Is called upon to render as many as 150 decisions in the course of a single gamo. The big majority of these he gives accurately. In proportion to the number of chances he has, his mistakes aro much fewer than thoso of the huill players, who miss 5 or 10 per cent of their chances ln the field and make errors of judgment at the bat. Yet, in tlmeB past, It was the habit never to say a good word for a umpire who had Tendered 149 correct judgments If he happened to slip on the one hundred and fiftieth. An umplro never received praise, but was always subject to knocks, sometimes of the most un* fair description. This custom has changed for the better, however, until the Judges of play are now looked upon as human beings and pretty good fellows at that The Brookfeds knocked Hearno out of tho box in yesterday's Federal league game and defeated Pittsburg, 6 to 3, - « NORTHWESTERN LEAGUE * BEES AND TACOMA HIT BALL FREELY Teams Make 31 Safeties—Seattle Shuts Out Spokane—Vancouver L°ses to Aberdeen, League Standing.

Thc' graphic"*story oC how Col. W. Hart-McHai*£ mot Ills death nt Ypres is told in a, vory vivid manner by Col. Victor Odium In n, letter to Col. Hulme of Vaiiojfthver, which roads in part as follows: "After thc Ttfrcos had given way on tho 22nd, before the German gas and gutls, thc Canadian left flank was . thrown open. The 7ih battalion, which had been In reserve, and which was due to relieve thc Sth in the trenchcs on thc 28fdj was thrown into tho gap. We dug tn along tho crest of a hill between St. .TUlten und Klerst- lcarc. On thc afternoon of the 23rd, haying received orders to make oar position secure, the colonel and 1 went out with Lieut. Mathesoii of tho Canadian engineers to reconnoitre a permanent trench site. At the foot or the hill some threo nr Coiy yards In front nf the place wc had dug in wore some ruined houses. The colonel wished to investigate thom. J advised against it. However, he overruled mc and down we went. When we readied tlie houses nnd looked out through Un back we saw hundreds 'if Oermans not 101 yards away watching us. Shot in thc Stomach. "We knew our position was dangerous, but did tli« only thing there was to do: Wc started uri hill toward our own linos. As soon as we passed from the protection nf the houses a. heavy . rifle fire, was opened on us. ! threw myseir on i.ho ground and noticed that the colonel and Lieut. Matheson did thu same. About 10 1'cet from me was a sholl hole. I rolled over Into this and tho colonel rolled iu after mo—on top of mo. As he rolled'in ho said: "'I don't, want to get it again.' '"Oct what?" 1 asked. "'I'm shot in the stomach,* he answered. "There was nothing I could do, but get out from under as gently as possible and let him down into the protection of thc hole, Then I made my way, dodging arid running and rolling and crawling to thc top of the hill ond on to our dressing station to get Dr. Cibson, leaving Lieut. Mnihesnn in a ditch not fjir from the colonel to watch .over him. Dr. Gibson, with splendid courage, went down the hill in tlie face ■of the German fire, got the colonel out of the shell hole and over into the ditch, and there dressed his wounds. Ho remained with him till dark, when the stretcher-bearers carried tho colonel up safely. "Poor McHarg was suffering a good deal, lie believed he was going to die, nnd gave me many instructions. At midnight he was taken away in r motor 'ambulance and the day after April 21, he passed away at the clearing hospital at Poperinghe. He was 'buried thore. That samo day - the storm of the attack broke on the 7th battalion. We wero surrounded—nnd many did not get out. Eighteen officers went under, killod, woundod and missing; and between f.00 and 600 other ranks. Whon we had a chance, aftor days of fighting lo check the remnants, we found we had a total strength, including transport jiiid quartermasters' departments, of 317. Of course, others may turn up later; but they have not oven commenced to turn up yet. % Tribute to the "Boys." "The boys did splendid work. Thoy wero perfectly magnificent. T never felt so proud of any one before as I did of them; nor did I ever feci so sad, for, in addition to the colonel, my own brother was killod, blown to pieces hy a shell, and many of my most Intimate friends went under. Tiio best are gone. Those of ns who nre left will do what wo can, but the 7lh battalion can never be the same splendid unit again. *VVo had brave men, ablo men, loyal men; nnd the bravest, the ablest, Ibe most loyal are no longer witli us. I could Irtentinn many; but to mention one and not the others!Would be an Injustice; and I cannot mention nil. or two, however, I must make special reference. First, tf> Ihe colonel, who surprised us nil with his cool, quiet courage when the hour of trial actually arrived; and second, to Capt. S. D. Gardner, former adjutant of the filh regiment, and now adjutant of the 7th battalion. Capt. Gardner was invaluable—cool, brave, resourceful. Had it not. boen for Gardner, I do not know what 1 would ha.vo done. "I have already spoken of Capl, George Gibson, our medical ofricer. No one could hnv,> been more daring. "In the loss, or Col. McHarg, the (tilt D.C.O.It. as well ns tho 7th battalion suffers severely; hut In suffering, It adds another illustrious name to Its roll of honor.

It is announs-od, from Alliens that CsTecce is not. llkoly to lake any definite notion with regard to participation In the war until after the elections, whicli are now in progress. Greece is virtually deciding hy pop- ular vote whethos she Blm.il conform to the wishes of the king, who is lying seriously ill, nn<! remain neutral or join- the triple entente and Italy in attacking Turkey. On the surface the election" are merely for the purpose of choosing, In tho regular way, a. new parliament, hut. them ore ,few In tho country who do not understand lhat if they elect lho party headed by Venlzelos their country will flfht. against thc Germanic alliance. About two months ago the cabinet headed hy Venlzelos determined upon taking the leap. King Constantino intervened in favor of neutrality. Vcul- zelos incurred the royal displeasure hy refusing 1o recede from his views, and a cabinet which was in harmony with the king's attitude was formed. Tho new government, is now appealing to the country. ■ -Popular feeling has been warlike, and it is generally believed that, thc former premier will :bc elected. CANADIAN PEOPLE HAVE GREAT SUM FOR INVESTMENT. ■ .Savings deposits in Canadian hanks in March established a new record fnr that month of the year aud the total for April rose io $086,075,1)37, exceeding that of March by about $-1,000,0110. Tho growth in savings is shown by the fact that the March total was $36,- 000,000 iiwxcess of that of the sumo month in 1914 and over $123,000,000 greater than hi March four years ago. The gain rrom September, 101-1( to the end of April is approximately $35,000,- U0O. Current account deposits show n similar iucroase. Tlie peoplss or Canada iluring a. pep. iod ol restricted trado are saving more money than at. any time in tlie history of the country. Tlie will' lias emphasized the virtue of thrift and one of the results will lis: that a huge volume of savings will be available for Investment in enterprises for the development of the Dominion wheu those who have money :irc again prepared lo relax their purse strings. There is no real reason why much of this money should not now lie devoted to-the development of the natural resources of the country, but what President Wilson would cull thu "psyoholog- Ical" couditions are apparently not yet la-vorablo. gardlng Germany. Writing to Rev. Dr. McGIll of Ayr the national poet of Scotland declared: "Ignorance, superstition, bigotry, stu- pidlly, malevolence, self-conceit, envy —nil strong bound in a massive frame of brazen impudence. Good God, Bir! to such a shield humor is tho neck of a sparrow and satire-the popgun of a schoolboy! Creation disgracing scel- orato such as they God only can mend and the devil only can punish. In the uncomprehending way of Caligua, I wish thoy all hart lint ono neck. I. feel impotent «s a child to Ihe ardor ot my wishes. Oh! for a withering curse to blast the Germans of their wicked machinations. Oh I for a poisonous tornado winged from (ho torrid zone ot Tartarus to sweep the spreading crop of their vllllalnoiis contrivances to the lowest hell." "A poisonous tornado winged from the torrid zone of Tartarus" would; be a fitting retaliation if it could be brought into play in the western theatre of war today against the German forces which have endeavored to win a victory for barbarism by the use ot chlorine funics. The King and country need the young men of Kootenay and Boundary. Mexico is at present putting up a pretty poor sideshow compared to tho performance in Ihe big War Tent. The courteous language of the ambassadors as they announce, just hefore leaving enemy capitals, that their country has declared war is the last brief calm iheforo the storm. Recruiting is progressing well, hut those who are assisting in the- good work will he well advised lo continue their efforts until the Inst man required has enrolled.

COLD STORAGE. UNWISE CRITICISM. <r> <t> <$> The man who criticizes iho Rovern- ment unjustly in 1imc of war ofrnnds Lho patriotic sentiment of the nation. Canada's- government at. the present time is being criticized unjustly ami tho nation Is being weakened as a consequence. By no process of vensoning can it he eonohuled that, one-half of the criticism of the government of Canada that, is appearing in a section of the press at. the present time is fair or healthy. It is intended fo discredit the government, to make it appear that tlie country Is badly served by the men In office. No ono can argue that the nation is served by this criticism. It is as wild, hysteric and unfair as was the assault on ibe Canadian hoot and shoo Industry not long ago which went up in smoke in due f.ime on tho floor of parliament, where statements oanot be made unless tliey are supported by evidence. It is a solemn fact, that one-half of the press of Canada has for some months adopted au attitude of railing at the government which could uot. be made more intense ir a general election had boon in progress. Strange to say, coupled with this criticism has been a protest, against the holding of a general '-election. The country lias seen ibo critics as busy af disturbing tactics as they could he iu t'he eveut of a general election, while the same critics cried out against aeiinu such ns they wero busily engaged in performing. In time of war the public does not1 regard the government of the country in such a. way as lo permit of harsh criticism such as has been forthcoming from many sources of late. Critics will not attack the government in war time with impunity when their criticism has no basis in fact. Tho parly which lends its endorsntion to such a policy is not gaining nny ground.—Montreal Daily Mall.

Obtaining recognition, lie spoke somo- what as follows: "I'm in favor of letting these ot.te.o- pnths practise. The homeopaths practiso, tho allopaths practise; all the other 'paths practise. And, after till, we may do well to remember thai, as the poet says, the paths all lead but to the grave." CIVILIZED (?) WARFARE. This was Ktnperor William's order. Order of tlie German emperor: Kill the children, and the mothers, Murder all the non-combatants, This is how he slew the Uclgians, Caused his men to torture babies, Firo on women, burn up dwellings, Kill the reebio and tbe aged. This is why the allied nations Rose against him in one iho'dy, To uphold the rights of Belgium. And defend the ruined country. This is "how the war was started, Aud with murder it continued, Till the good ship Lusitania Sank beneath the waves, iorpedoed. And across the deep Atlantic, From the land of peace nnd freedom, Camo tho gentle west wind sobbing, And lamonling for its victims. I Then the nations, shocked wiih horror At the innocents thus slaughtered", Charged the emperor with murder And with acts not international. We will get you yel. 0. William!

It is in tho following terms: May 2,1915, My Dear Sir.—I was deeply impressed by the scene ef yestorday. The brigade, In. its orderly thousands, representing not merely the discipline of drill, hut that, of moral force based on religious training, was a. spectacle full of hope for the future, and that not merely for Glasgow, though I could frame no better wish for Glasgow than the unlimited extension of this movement, but for our race, We are seeking in this war not merely to defend our liberties, but to supersede by a moral force a. conspiracy, immoral and Indeed infamous in aim aud method, against, the freedom and welfare of all countrlos. That conspiracy, long devls-ad, seeks under the sardonic phylactery of culture to relegate the world by barbarous methods hack into barbarism. The deliberate murder uf tho wounded and innocent, ihe wanton destruction of shrines, the cruel oppression of non- combatants, the odious outrages against prisoners, the disdain of treaties and of International law and of all lho decent rcstniints which are common to civilized countries—all these and other crimes arc proved to the hilt against our enemies, Concpivo a Prussian victory, conceive such methods and principles tit ihe word can he used) stamped hy forco on Europe as its permanent low or lawlessness. What we call the Dark Afies would ito as light compared with those. Still that Is the Issne between us, and it Is tbc moral force which your brigade represents which miiHt prevail for liu* salvation of the world. If that fail, Europe will he hurled back into tiio condition of North America before its discovery, dominated by stivayes, whatever the name by which they may call themselves.

Having something to say— Saying it in the right way— Saying it in the right place at the right time. And in the latter phase of the problem the daily newspaper stands pre-eminent. It is essentially the right place and as it is published day in and day out it is easy to suit the words to the time.

S.—Copper Refinery Would Be Advantageous to Dominion OTTAWA, May 26.—The manufacture of toluol, the new and powerful explosive, was begun for the first time In Canada yesterday at ihe Dominion Steel company's works at Sydney. This Is two months earlier than was anticipated. It will soon be manufactured also at Sault Ste. Marie and elsewhere and the value of the total output is expected to be large. The proposal to refine copper in this country Is still receiving consideration. It has heen pointed out that the freight rates on copper matte shipped to the United States refineries Is $10 per ton besides duty. Then there is the freight chnrge nnd the duty on the refined copper shipped back to Canada. The establishment of a copper refinery In Canada would also serve as a regulator of foreign combines. WAR 111 New York Market Almost Wholly Con* trolled by Events Abroad—Cane- dian Pacific Declines, / • , (By Dally News Leased Wire.) NEW YORK, May 26.—That the stock market remains almost entirely under the Influence of war developments was again clearly demonstrated today. Cables telling of an accident to. an American freighter off the Irish coast resulting from the explosion of a mine or torpedo, served as a 'grim reminder of the Lusitania. episode and were .sufficient to Hive prices a sharp setlmck, which mado only partial recovery. Quito apart from this Incident, however, the market was dull and heavy. With the approach of the ti'me for the receipt of this government's reply from Germany traders show an increasing disposition to abstain from new commitments, particularly on. the buying side. On tho other hand the sold-out condition of tho market offers few attractions to the short interests. War interests were most affected by today's nows which came early in the session when tho market showed a number or uneven price changes. These, specialties fell 1 to 3 points while standard shares declined 1 to 2% poinds, Canadian 'Pacific losing the maximum amount. Thereafter tho list, drifted idly with occasional slight rallies'. In Uio final dealings heaviness followed a general slump in motors. Now orders for railroad equipment, together with authoritative statements that mills are maintaining their recent high rate of production imparted some steadiness to the shares of the steel companies, but coppers were less stable on rumors of another shading of prices for metal. More firmness is shown by tho various markets for foreign exchange, duo in part to confirmation of the reporti that American 4>airkers had received largo amounts of gold from Ottawa during the recent break In sterling exchange. Honda were irregular with continued selling of low-priced issues. Total sales, par value, $1,735,000. Panama coupons declined % on call. PRODUCE. MONTREAL PROVISIONS. (Bv Daily News Leased Wire.)

OTTAWA; ..May 2(1.—Following thc interview with Si,]- Bptofa Borden nnd his colleagues (it noon today, the mem- hers of the municipal delegation today had a.long conference with the mombers of the government whose departments are most deeply concerned with the problems arising ont of unemployment in Canadian cities. The confer- qnce was held In the office of Hon. T. W. Crothers, the other ministers present being Hon. \V. .1, Roche, minister of tbe Interior, and Hon. .Martin Bur, rell, minister of agriculture. The details presented to the minister were discussed in detail, but no sleflnite conclusions were arrived «t, tho three ministers present malting it clear that tbey could not commit the government to nny declaration of policy. All the western mayors emphasized the desirability of steps ibelng taken to provide relief for the unemployed at ltKist until harvest time and to inaugurate some permanent polity, owing to the likelihood of the war being followed by at least, a short period of commercial depression. Mayor Henry of Edmonton snid that in his city $100,000 had heen spent ln giving relief. He thought that the outlay of $250,000 by the federal government between Winnipeg and the Rockies between now and harvest would do much to relieve the situation. Mr. Burrell—What do the provincial governments think of your proposition? Mr. Henry said thnt the provincial government had provided $50,000 nnd It had been spent. Professor Bedford ot Winnipeg said that Manitoba last season had succeeded ln growing its supply of alfalfa seed hitherto purchased from Germany. The seed produced was of tbe best quality. He thought that Canada might be equally succssful in branching out Into other lines. Does Not Buy Immigrants. Hon. Or. Roche said it had been frequently stated the federal government wns responsible for bringing to Canada the class of people who are now In distress. He desired to point out that the government does not give one dollar directly to Immigrants. Bonuses have been paid to ship companies for agriculturists and domestic help, but of late these have been largely discontinued. At the present time farmers of means alone are encouraged to come to Canada. Dr, Roche remarked that for tne year 1914 out of 134,000 [migrants from continental Europe less than 2 per cent had recelvod nny finaclal encouragement to come. Mayor Waugh of Winnipeg said that tbe rem cause of the trouble was thnt the people of Europe were told that they could secure IHO acres of good land ln Canada for $10. As a consequence many of thom came, but they usually arrived ln Winnipeg without any money. In past years instead of going on the land they wero employed In constructing railways and city sewers. Now there is no railway construction nnd these peoplo have congregated In the big cities nnd have to bo looked after. "The trouble Is," said Mayor Waugh addressing the ministers, "that you do not finish tho Job. You bring these people to Canada, but do nol place thom on tho land: They nro left In tho cities.'1 Mr. Burrel—Your contention la thnt our Immigration literature should1 bo revised. They should he told thnt cheap land Is available In Canada, but Hint in cominj to this country they should hnve enough money to make a start? ■ Mayor Waugh—Exactly. We ought to establish those here before we allow morel to come to Canada." Mr. Crothers asked Mayor Waugh what he. would do if thc Dominion or provincial government provided 0 sum of money for relief. MayOr'Waugh said he would provide some kind of employment, as that was belter than charity. He adsled that the city of Winnipeg was prepared to put up a dollar for every dollar provided for'Vollef by either the federal or provincial governments.'' Wants Permanent Organization. Mayor Young of Fort William urged the necessity of si permanent organization for relief being established. Tho cities, he said, were ot the end of theiT resources and something must bo done.' Mr. Burrell said tho responsibility rested with the municipalities, the provincial governments nnd the fed. eral igoverninent In the order named. Mr. Crothers remarked thnt In October Inst be hnd suggested u conference between nil parties concerned, including the railways nnd largo contractors, but the provincial governments had not accepted the proposal. Had such a conference been held then a plan could have been worked out which would have resulted in itprpecinbly bettering existing conditions. J. C. Watters, president of the Dominion trades andi labor councill, agreed Swilitih Mr. {Crothers that an effort had boen made to hold a conference last fall, hut tbe provinces had failed to respond to the invitation. Mayor Waugh agreed with what had been said as to the responsibility of tho provincial governments. The late government in Manitoba, he said, had been forcibly reminded of existing conditions by being waited upon ;hy 10,- 000 unemployed. The new government had also had a. similar experience and was fully alive to the situation. Representatives of the provincial governments, he added, would wait on the premier at noon tomorrow. Tbe conference closed with nn assurance rrom the ministers that they would do anything they could in the direction of bringing about a betterment of existing conditions. GOVERNMENT TO AID ITALIAN RESERVISTS Will Probably Be Assisted in Securing Transportation for Return to Italy to Join Army. (By Dally News Leased Wire.)

Most soups 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 mulslitied cocoiwuut oil (which Is pure and greaselcss), It's cheaper and better than soap or anything else you can use. Orne or two tcaspoonfuls 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 every particle- of 'diust, dirt, -dandruff and excessive oil, The hair dries quickly and1 evenly and it leaves the scalp soft and the hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy to maniage. You can get mulsifled cocoanut oil at any pharmacy, and a few ounces will supply every member of the family for months. PAGE EIGHT fcfo :8att?
