al OWE MY HAIR
TO CO.GO-OL"

The wife of an army officer in the
Philippines writes i'll these words OF
the new shampoo, Go-Go-Ol:
Immediately on our arrival in
Manila we noted the marvellous hair
of all the natives-so long, luxuriant
and beautiful. On inquiry we learned
that it was due to their use OF the
native plant, COCO, combined with
cocoanut oil. Some of the Fllipinos
use too much extra oil to suit Amer
lean taste, but we learned that there
was a preparation which had been
made in answer to the demand for an
Americanized product-namely, 90
Cool. All OF us at the post used 1t
with delightful results"
This liquid shampoo is made Of
COCO and refined oil Of cocoanut
in lust the right quantities to give
the benefit of both. 1t should be used
every other week at least. Blonde or
gray hair will be amazingly bright
ened and beautihed without artificial
effect. 1t Is absolutely harmless;
good for baby's scalp.
Go-Go-Ol is both scalp stimulant
and cleanser, giving fragrant lather
which is easy to use and results in
healthy scalp and perfectly dean hair,
free from dandruff and skin troubles.

ploits of one James Kestner. govern

exploits in running down malefactors
of all kinds. The hero of these re-
markable tales is the central character
in "The Hand of Peril" and throughout

Says the press agent: Help Wanted
is a common expression in the big bus
mess world. 1t is safe to say that
nine of every ten theatregoers have at
some time or other either answered a
help wanted ad, or has engaged help
through these ads. For this reason it
seems unnecessary to remind you Of
its trials, and in some cases, tragedies.
Many poor well-meaning girl has sac
rificed all in order to make good with
her scoundrel of an employer. 1t
makes every true Americans blood
boil to even think of it. 1t was just
such a case as this in real life that
suggested the play to Jack Lait, the
author. The Jack Bessey company will
give Help Wanted at the Empire next
Sunday. matinee, at which time it opens
