When You Wash Your Hair Don't Use Soap i Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is just plain mulsified coeoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats soaps or any thing else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. . Simply moisten the hair with wnter and rub it in, about a ten spoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, 'cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out. easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and oasv to handle. Besides, it ioosens j and takes out every particle of dust, I dirt and dandruff.

Grip of the Bulldog It is a commonly accepted belief that nothing short of being pried loose will induce a bulldog to give up his,grip on another dog or on an intruder' but this is a mistake. A little household ammonia poured on him as near his nose as circumstances will allow will make him let go immediately. The fumes of ammonia are so overpowering that a dog cannot possibly maintain his grip and his breath at the same time. Trust him little who praises all, him less who censures all and him least who is indifferent to all.—Lavater.

TREAT CANCER QUICKLY "It Is Not Surgery, But Delayed Sur gery, That Falls to Cure" That cancer is at first a local growth and Dot a general disease of the sys tem is now clearly established. This fact is of the utmost importance since it holds out a high hope of cure if the malignant growth is removed before it has time to spread to other parts of the body. Cancer beginning in one spot later appears elsewhere because small particles or cells are carried away from the first site and start other growths, not because there exists pre viously some poison in the blood which causes the disease to break out in different parts of the body. The great hope of cure, therefore, lies in remov ing cancer entirely from the system be fore it has a chance to spread" from its first foothold. The reason why so many people 'came to believe that cancer was a blood disease is doubtless because it was observed to come again in the same or other parts of the body after having been apparently cut out. It was natural to assume that when the disease kept coming back in this man ner there must be some cause or taint in the blood which led to its breaking out in different places much like cer tain skin diseases. The trouble which started this falla cious reasoning was that 'in those earlier days cancer was ftot so well , understood as it no wis. Hurgeons' then did the best they knew how, but without the 'advantages of modern methods they wore unable successfully . to exterminate the disease. The micro scope has now shown us the paths by which cancer cells start their invasion of the body if the first and local ap pearance is neglected. Modern sur geons are, therefore, repeatedly suc cessful in removing the disease once for all. As an eminent American ' doctor has well said, "It is not sur gery, but delayed surgery, that fails to cure." Had Learned One Lesson At one school the pupils were re quested to bring 5 cents each for the piano. Donations were slow in coming and the teacher was obliged to remind the class frequently before the total was collected.

At its narrowest place the strait is less than' a mile wide. On one side is Asia and on the other is Europe. The strait is famous in mythology. I The pre-Christian incursions of bar barians into Europe often were halted there. 1 Xerxes and Alexander ferried across. I One determined to destroy the civiliza tion of Greece and the other to diffuse! Grecian culture over the whole world.; Crusade s went back and forth over this strait. The Roman empire of the) east commanded it oven after the Mo-j hammcdans had established themselves 1 at Adrianoiple.

When! ! the trappers come the captured baboons' ar terror-stricken and try to force their heads through the walls of huts . One baboon was caught three 1 times in the same trap ,and several turned loose got back into the samo trap a second time. When the baboons are carried away all their comrades climb into trees and scream out to the prisoners, who answer in gad, mournful voices. On one occasion some big •Arabian baboons were, trapped, when 2,000 or 3,000 baboons hurled them sieves upon the trappers, who had hard vc.rk to save themselves with firearms and clubs. As the trappers were forced bac kthe victorious baboons tore up the 1 tiap and turned loose the captured baboons. 5 For Men Men's Trousers, $1.45 formerly $2.00; eassi raere and cheviot, in stripes, figures and colors.
