Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo
If you want to keep your hair la
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and is very harmful. Mulsi
fied cocoanut oil shampoo (which is
pure and entirely greaseless), is
much better than anything else you
can use for shampooing, as tills
can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abund
ance of rich, creamy lather, and
cleanses the hair and scalp thor
oughly. 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 Mulslfied cocoanut
oil shampoo at most any drug store.
It is very cheap, and a few ounces
is enough to last everyone in the
family for months.

POUCE SEEK MAN
WITH FOUR WIVES
Howard F. Swisher, Charged as Deserter From the Army,
Wanted on Bigamy Counts in Northumberland; One
Wife Critically 111 Because of Husband's Dual Life
Sunbury, Pa., Sept 10. —The ease
with which Howard F. Swisher
married four wives is the sensation
of this section of the State us the
story unfolds in the District Attor
ney's office. Yesterday Chief of Po
lice Smith received Information that
Swlshef, who is charged with having
been married three times, has a
fourth wife, a Miss Margaret John
son, of Unityvilie, Columbia county.
The information is that Swisher
married the Unityvilie girl four
years ago and then deserted her.
The investigation by the North
umberland county authorities brings
to light the fact that two years after
he married Miss Johnson he took
as his bride Miss Margaret Stetler.
of near Danville. He is charged
with having deserted her and joined
the National Guard of Pennsylvania
as a private in Company I, Thir
teenth Regiment, of Eioomsburg,
when that unit went to Texas in
1916. The story goes that when
the company came to Sunbury to
guard bridges, Swisher took the
name of "William B. Marshal, and
courted Miss Margaret Summers, a
comely Sunbury girl, who was
barely 17 years old. He married
her too, as though his two wed
dings before were of no material
matter to him. After his company
went to Camp Hancock he turned
up in Sunbury, but later disap
peared.
Last week a letter came to Chief
of Police Smith from Howard A.
Ford, British Vlc-Consul at Phila
jdeljihia, telling of the wedding of
Howard Franklin Swisher to an
English girl. It asked information
as to Swisher's other wives, saying
the English girl wanted to get a di
vorce. Swisher at the time of his
] wedding was serving in the Ameri
can Army in England, It would ap
pear from the letter. This would
in'dicate that he was also a deserter
from the army there, according to
the police.
After Swisher's company left
Camp Hancock for France. Swisher,
going under the name of Marshal,
turned up in Sunbury. It was then
his Danville wife learned he had
married the Sunbury girl, the police
chief says. Her father, a respect
able farmer, came to Sunbury and
caused his arrest.
At a hearing before Justice Earl
M. Roush, the Danville wife and the
HALIFAX SEEKS
A PUBLIC PARK
Ownership by Railroad of the
Canal Bed Presents an
Objectionable Feature
Halifax, Pa., Sept. 10.—Halifax
Is planning to have a public park.
Several meetings have been held,
but no conclusion has been reached.
The fitting up of a portion of the
old river bank and old canal bed has
been considered. It is claimed part
of this at least is the property of
the borough.
The fact that the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company claims large
holdings there, whether legally or
justly or Justly, interposes an ob
jectionable feature. Some claim the
old riparian deeds establish the
claims of land owners to the ground
as far as low water mark and that
the abandonment of the canal as
such caused it to revert to the orig
inal owners, consequently to present
owners along the river front.
Thieves Pillage Houses
and Haul Goods Away
Waynesboro, Pa., Sept. 10.
Thieves broke into the cottage of
Frank Shiess, Scott Cunningham and
Watson and Harry Stoner, on the
Woodring farm, near Waynesboro,
and carried off clothing, shoes, bed
sheets, pillows and casings, comforts,
silverware, kitchen utensils, etc.
They made almost a clean sweep
of everything portable. The goods
were taken away in an automobile.
After they were removed from the
building the thieves set fire to some
of the other things, but, it is thought,
they did not wish to see the build
ing burn, and they put the Are out.
The goods were badly scorched.
Engine Sparks Probable
Cause of SB,OOO Fire
Palmyra, Pa., Sept. 10.—Farm im
plements and crops were destroyed
with loss amounting to SB,OOO, by
fire yesterday morning at the barn
on the Frank Bacastow farm, ten
anted by his son. Franklin Barca
stow, a mile southwest of Palmyra.
The barn with all its contents was
totally destroyed, as was also the
pig sty and wagon shed along with
implements and wagons. It is
thought the fire started when en
gines on the Reading railroad hurled
sparks onto the dry roof, as the
barn was located but within a hun
dred and fifty yards of the tracks.
Halifax Township Man
Admitted to County Bar
Halifax, Pa., Sept. 10.—Isaiah J.
FetterhofT, of Halifax township, has
been admitted to practice law in the
several courts of Dauphin county.
Mr. Fetterhoff is a son of Philip
W. Fetterhoff. He was graduated in
1912 from the law school of Valpa 7
raiso, Ind., and now holds a position
in the military service in Washing
ton. He will give up that position
In the fall and go to Harrisburg to
take up the practice of law. He

Knopp, who made the motion for
his admission.
Cattle Herder Kills
65 Rattlesnakes in Season
T/ewistown, Pa., Sept. 10.—From
Licking Creek Valley comes a story
that Frank Miller, a cattle herder
in that region, has killed 65 rattle
snakes this season. Miller tends to
about 160 head of cattle and he gets
through some of the wildest country
in Central Pennsylvania. About his
cabin arc hung many skins of
snakes. He has never been bitten.
(Other State news- on Page 5)
Sunbury wife confronted Swisher.
He confessed. The Danville wife
carried a baby in her arms. She
said it was Swisher's, and that she
expected another visit from the
stork. The officer says he would visit
her home at times and make her
believe that his army life would not
let him stay there. Swisher was
held in default of ball for his ap
pearance at the Northumberland
County Court to answer a bigamy
charge.
In the meantime there was re
ceived a notice from the authorities
at Camp Meade saying that Swisher
was wanted for being a deserter
from the army. Figuring he would
receive a heavier sentence for de
serting In time of war, Swisher was
taken to Camp Meade in July. Po
liceman Raymond S. Quinn was
summoned there to testify against
him before a court mprtlal. and It
was reported here that he had re
ceived a sentence of three years in
a military prison. To their surprise
Swisher returned to Sunbury som£
three weeks later with a discharge
from the army.
He was not arrested, as the big
amy charge had been dropped. His
Sunbury wife was reluctant to prose
cute because of the publicity she
would get. The Danville wife had
already started divorce proceedings,
it is understood, and the Sunbury
wife has employed counsel for that
purpose. Swisher has since disap
peared. and the police in Central
Pennsylvania towns have been asked
to look for him.
In the meantime, the Danville
wife, following the birth of their
child, underwent an operation in a
Danville hospital. Because of her
state of mind, due to her trouble
with Swisher, it was said to-day she
is in a critical condition and may
not recover.
What amazes the police here Is
how Swisher escaped with nothing
but nn army discharge from the au
thorities at Camp Meade. Swisher
gave his age to the police as 3 2
years. He comes from near Blooms
burg, it is understood, and while
there, according to reports, was not
much inclined to work. The police
state that his fourth marriage can
be substantiated and that it proves
how easily women are persuaded
into matrimony by a stranger with
a gib tongue and uniform.
