LONDON' July l-The house of
commons today declined to interfere

view to forcing the hands of the gov-
ernment to accept the resignation for

his connection with the Mesopotamian
campaign.
Mr. Dillon in a speech demanding
the adjourning of the house castigated
Baron Hardinge but after his indict-
ment of the under secretary the debate
wjs rathr elanguid. Arthur J. Balfour
the foreign secretary replying to Mr.
Dillon's criticism staunchly defended
Baron Hardinge.
Mr. Balfour contended that although
lie might be attacked for what he did
as viceroy of India it was grossly un-
fair and grossly unconstitutional to at-
tack him as uiidrr-secrelary for foreign
affairs.
"While I hold mv present office."
said Mr. Balfonr "I will not permit
such a gross act of injustice to one of
my subordinates. If the house decides
that because I adhere to that decision
I ought to resign nobody will be more
grateful than mvself with that expres-
sion of opinion."

officers of the American training
camp are still trying to decide
what to do with the gift made by
the French government to the
American troops in honor of the
fourteenth of July the French na-
tional holiday consisting of cham-
pagne red wines jellies ham and
other delicacies. There is a con-
siderable quantity of champagne
and red wine for each soldier and
officer but for the present the au-
thorities have not been able to de-
cide whether the distribution of
these wines would he in violation
of the spirit of the recent legisla-
tion covering the question of
liquor to soldiers.

idly held to water even though the

siderable. American Squadron

Alkali in Soap
Bad for the Hair
Soap should be used vety carefully if
you want to Veep your hair looking its
best. Most soaps and prepared sham-
poos contain too much alkali This
diies the scalp makes the hair brittle
and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary mulsifird cocoanut oil (which
is pure and greaseless) and is better
than the most expensive soap or any-
thing else you can use
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly Simply
moisten the hair with water ami rub it
in. It makes an abundance of rich
creamy lather which rinses out easily
removing every particle o( dut dirt
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly and it leaves
the scalp loft and the hair fine and
silky bright lustrous fluffy and easy
to manage.
You ran get mulsified cocoanut oil at
any pharmacy it's very cheap and a
few ounces will supply tery member
of the family for monthi. Adv.
