(Special Telegram.) S. R. McKel
vie, republican candidate for gov
ernor, addressed well attended meet

said:
"Of equal importance with pros
perous industrial and business con
ditions in our state is the subject of
the domestic relations of the people.
In times like this, when the public
mind becomes easily inflamed, it is
of He utmost importance that the
people should be encouraged to con
sider the common good and the
rignts of the citizens as reserved to
them by the laws and the constitu
tion. "Since the time when our republic
was established it has been a well
observed principle that every indi
vidual is entitled to a hearing before

Soap should be used very care
fully, if you want to keep your hair
looking its best. Most soaps and p?e
pared shampoos contain too much
alkali. This dries the scalp, makes
the hair brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is I
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(which is pure and greaseless), and
is better than the most expensive
soap or anything else you can use.
One or two teasponfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thor
oughly. Simply moisten the hair
with water and rub it in. It makes
an abundance of rich, creamy lath
er, which rinses out easily, removing
every particle of dust, dirt, dan
druff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it
leaves the scalp soft, and the hair
fine and silky, bright, lustrous,
fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut
oil at any pharmacy, it's very
cheap, and a few ounces will sup
