Use Cocoanut Oil
For Washing Hair
If you want to keep your hair in
pood condition be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos 1
contain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is
very harireful. Just plain mulsifled
cocoanut oil (which is pure and en
tirely grease less) is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly Injure the hair.
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.
Noted Authority says we must
flush Kidneys with Salts
if Back hurts.
We are a nation of meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid, says a I
well-known authority, who warns us to I
be constantly on guard against kidney j
tiouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free i
the blood of this irritating acid, but {
become weak from the overwork; thoj i
tret sluggish; the eliminative tissues
clog anil thus the waste is retained In
the blood to poison tfce entire system. I
When your kidneys ache and l'eei I
like lumps of lead, and you have
stinging pains in the back or the urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, or the
bladder is irritable, obliging you to
seek relief during the night; when you
have severe headaches, nervous and
dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid stom- J
ach or rheumatism in bad weather. '
got from your pharmacist about four j
ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoon- '
ful in a glast: of water before break
fast each morning and in a few days- 1
your kidneys will act fine. This i
famous salts is made from the acid !
of grapes and lemon juice, combined i
v illi lithia, and has been used for I
generations to flush and stimulate;
clogged kidneys, to neutralize the
acids in urine so it is no longer a
source of irritation, thus ending urin
ary and bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and can
not injure; makes a delightful effer
vescent lithia-water drink and nobody
can make a mistake by taking a little I
occasionally to keep the kidneys clean
and active.—Advertisement.

"Well, I'll admit frankly that I don't
eee any chance," eaid Mary. "But
there's nothing else In sight. I sup
pose we might as well wait for him

"No ha.ra>—and a lot of good, per

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

fences' In the oounwy. Connoisseurs
who care more about what la
collection than how they obtain their
treasures know him. He has been re
ceiver for all sorts of stolen art treas
ures for year*!"
"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

done!" said Mona, confidentially. 'lt's
when you can't see a way that I'm
afraid. Mary."
"Well, you've got your part to do,
too," said Mary. "You used to study
art. Can you paint well enough to
pretend you're making a. copy of tha
Monna VannaT"
"Just about," said Rlona. "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! Oh, I don't know what
to do—l have got to have money, or I'll
tie put out of my room!"

The tentacles of the shafts by the

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. About the

jis everywhere to be seen. The Greek
j church occupies a pinnacle here and

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.

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. It
has been burning for seventy years. |
It has consumed coal valued at mil- |
