Curtis M. Johnson of Rash City, Minn., "Gives Address on Costs and Profits. Hardware and implement dealers from all parts of the state gathered yesterday for their fourteenth an nual convention which got under -way at the Imperial hotel to continue until Friday night. After an address of welcome by H. B. Van Duzer, president of the cham ber of commerce, and the response by A. L. Jameson of McMinnville, presi dent of the association, the dealers listened to an instructive talk by Curtis M. Johnson of Rush City, Minn. Besides being- past president of the National Implement Dealers' associa tion, Mr. Johnson is a director of the Minnesota state fair. Air. Johnson spoke yesterday on costs and profits, during- which he advanced the argument that Igno rance of actual costs causes nearly all failures in the hardware business. I By aid of a chart he proved to the satisfaction of the dealers that the cost of doing business averages from 17 to 20 per cent. He further main tained that by giving better service dealers can increase values and re duce their expense of doing business. "What profit a man if he gain the whole world and leave a rich widow?" was an epigram he used in asserting that the service a dealer can do for his community is of more value than mere profits and assets. In touch ing upon the labor situation, he de clared that labor must pay its own wage because every time labor . ad vances the wage it must pay it out in increased cost of living. Mr. Johnson is down on the pro gramme for the chief address this afternoon. During the morning ses sion technical subjects will be dis cussed by implement dealers and man ufacturers. . The reports of the various com mittees and election of officers for the ensuing year will take place to morrow afternoon. President Jame son named a resolutions committee of which G. V, Griffin is chairman. and a legislative committee of which Charles R. Archerd is chairman. BOARD BALANCE IS SHOWN State Livestock Sanitary Depart ment Report Made. SALEM, Or., Jan. 27. (Special.)

Don't Spoil Your Hair by Washing It When you wash your hair be care ful what you use. 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 Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap and beats anything 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 water and rub it in: about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thorouehly and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to han dle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dan druff.
