This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harireful.

Simply moisten TOUT hair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoon fuls will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the hair nnd scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily, and 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 mulsifled cocoanut oil j at most any drug store. It is very cheap, and a few ounces is enough to last evervone in the family for months. | CHIT UTS IF KIDNEYS ARE TROUBLING YOU Uric Acid in meat excites Kidneys and Irritates the Bladder.

Tve got a feeling that we've atuzubled on eome good luck, Mary." There was a small park opposite the museum, and here they sat and ate their decidedly frugal repast. They had some time to wait, but they wera glad to see, when Harry did appear, that he paid no attention at all to them He hurried off. Instead, an if he had an appointment to keep, and they had to walk fast to keep him In sight. They managed it, however, and saw him go Into a curious little store. The shop, if Its sign could be believed, was kept by one Melnotte, and Its windows Indicated that anything might bo bouht within—or sold. The most extraordi nary collection of odds and ends was visible, and, among other things, a few paintings, which, Mona said, were of no great value or Importance. But mona was wreathing fast, none the less. "Melnotte!" she eaid. "Now I'm sure, Mary! This store is just a blindl Mel notte Is one of the moat famous "art fences' In the oounwy.

"I'm beginning to think you're right, and that this is going to be worth while, Mona," said Mary. 'The thing for us to do Is to establish a connec tion with Melnotte—and 1 think I see a way to do it, too!" "Xow that I've got you interested Im Bure we're going to get something Mona and Mary Arrange to Copy the Painting. done!" said Mona, confidentially. 'lt's when you can't see a way that I'm afraid.

"They wouldn't throw me out If I went there to make a copy." Next morning the paths of the two girlg diverged for the time. Mona, with her eaael and her painting things, went to the museum. Harry was not there when 6he arrived, but after she had wandered about for a time, en- Joying the opportunity to look at the pictures, she saw him come in and take his place before the Monna Vanna. She waited a little longer, and then went up to him, rather timidly. "Oh, I beg your pardon!" she eaid. "I wonder—would you mind very much if I sat here and copied the picture, too?" He turned to her with a faint start of annoyance. But she was pre-tty enough to disarm him at once. How ever, it was in a rather ungracious tone that he replied: "It Is not my picture, my dear young lady," he said. "You or anyone else can come here and copy any picture you like." Despite this rather rude beginning, they were soon chatting amicably. Mary, meanwhile, had also been at work. She had laken out from the trunk the two old pieces of Jewelry that Mona had found and cleaned them, although she did not clean them so well as to make them look too new. And with these she went to the shop of Melnotte. She was lucky enough to find Melnotte disengaged. He sized her up at once, from her timid, indif ferent manner, as a woman in distress, and, because she vas good looking, at tended to her himself. "I—l wont to borrow something on these, if you please," she said, laying her trifles before him. He picked them up, sniffed, and then pushed them back to her. "For heaven's sake—what do you bring me stuff like this for?" he asked, contemptuously. "This Is nothing but junk you've got, my dear! And this Isn't a pawn shop! Wo buy—and. of course, for a good customer, we will sometimes arrange a loan." Mary looked at him piteously. And then, as she picked up the pin and the bracelet she began to wee/. "Oh—oh!" she sobbed. '"What am I to do? What am I to do? I have nothing else left—and you say these are worthless!

The tentacles of the shafts by the . breakers have reached forth and, on a dozen levels, have removed the coal. The surface has been undisturbed and the original owners or their success ors still dwell quietly on their ances tral farms. i But the complexion of the popula tion has greatly changed from the 'original mixture of English and Dutch. First the Irish and the Welsh' came into the coal fields and worked these mines. A generation tso they began to be displaced by Hun garians. Russians, Slavs and Italians. These have come and are still com ing by tens of thousands. Many of the workers here have been but a short time in America.

The round and | globular dome of the Russian church jis everywhere to be seen. The Greek j church occupies a pinnacle here and | there. There are touches of many | races. Tho anthracite regions are I Babels of languages, and as cosmo | politan as Constantinople. : And all these peoples are prosper ous beyond the wildest dreams of their European peasant imaginings. Slow-witted, cow-like Slavs are the parents of quick, bright American boys that astonish him who attempts to understand the racial influences of the new land. The sons of Polish min ers are the practicing attorneys in the courts of Scranton and Wilkes- Barre. There is plenty in all the miners' homes and the public schools remove the hyphens. There is not a better kept commu nity in the nation than is the anthra cite region. There is a peculiar con dition existing here with relation to such matters as the maintenance of the public roads. The coal companies, according to the returns of the asses sor, pay ninety per cent of the taxes. They would, therefore, under the or dinary method, contribute 90 per cent toward the building of the roads if they were constructed by the coun ties. This money would be expend ed through usual political channels and this method has been sho\yn not to be the most economical or effective. The coal companies have, therefore. HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH volunteered to assume full responsi- , bility for road construction. There 1 are no road taxes and the companies have assumed this burden. They tind it cheaper. The roads are construct- ; ol along best-proven, scientific lines j and maintained on the same basis. They are mostly paved with brick, even those in the country. They are j kept in perfect condition. The com panies know that this is economy. One would hardly expect coal min ing, as an industry, to go hand in hand with the spinning of silk. Yet in most of these towns one supple- ; ments the other. The silk mill is to | lie found in nearly every village. There I is a reason. The coal mines offer no | employment for the wives and daugh ters of the miners. There is an abundance of woman labor. The silk mills locate here that they may draw j ••pon the labor market thus provided. This coal field of incomparable value is now on fire. Far beneath the sur face the flames are raging and slowly j spreading. The fire Is in the upper ! end of the field but is stealing stealth ily toward the greater deposits.
