It claims soaps dry the scalp, make hair brittle, and that cocoanut oil creates rich lather, cleanses, rinses easily, and leaves hair soft and lustrous. It notes mulsified oil is cheap and available at pharmacies.
Coal Price Offer for Next Winter
Advertisement urges buying coal now to save 50 cents per ton with a 10 ton purchase saving $5.00, likening the savings to calling to Kel ley for $5.00. The tone is promotional and targets households planning winter fuel use.
