BEAUTY "DON'TS"
FOR YOUR HAIR

Don't neglect frequent washing.
Crime and grease are not only un-
slightly, but clog the pores of thu
scalp and prevent free circulation.
Remember frequent shampooing i.
Only beneficial when you use the right
s.Iampool
Don't fail to use Cocoon. 1t is
the American version of a famous
Philippine product-that which makes
the hair OF the Filipinos the finest in
the world. This shampoo has been
prepared of the Coco plant and
cocoanut oil TO suit American taste,
and is recommended by hair-special-
lists everywhere as the safest, most
efficient and agreeable hair-prepara-
ton known. Absolutely harmless,
economical and easy to use. 1t keeps
the pores healthy and prevents and
relieves dandruff.
Don't wash your hair in ordinary
soap; the alkali makes the hair brit
tie and robs it of life and color.
Go-Go-Ol is especially good for
blonde and gray hair.
Don't fail to rinse the hair thor
oughly, and dry it with a slight mas
sage. This, with the stimulating
action of Cocoon, will keep the
scalp healthy and the hair will be
bright. beautiful and fluffy.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl
16 years old There is a boy who goes
to my school who is little older than
/ am. He wrote letters TO me for a
while and then he stopped, and l still
like him, but he doesn't like me- A
girl friend sits in front of him and
she says, "How's RUTH" He says, Il
just hate her and l want you to tell
her So" The girl told me what he
said. 1t hurts my feelings l can't
keep my mind OFF him. There are two
other girls he likes better than he
does me. What shall do to win his
love? There is another boy a little
smaller than | am who likes me very
much, but | do not like him as much
as the other hoy. What shall do?
A WORRIED GIRL.
A boy who would make the remark
that boy did is not worth your love.
Study hard, little girl, and Try your
best to forget him. There is nothing
you can do that will make him like
you, and anything you try TO do win
only make YOU all the more distaste-
full to him A boy does not like a girl
who seeks his affection.

Dear Mrs Thompson: I have been
keeping company with nice young
lady and until recently l thought l
loved her. She loves me so much that
l am afraid to let her know that l do
not care for her any more. We have
never talked about love because l am
not in a position to marry, but l have
kissed her and done many things that
would give her reason to think l cared
a great deal for her She invites ME
to her house every Sunday night for
supper and. l am allowed to call as
many times as 1 wish to during the
week
She was going with another fellow
when l started to keep company with
her and she cut him out for me- He is
married now, and if | drop this girl I
am Arid she will be lonely and with
out company. She is pretty, but she
doesn't dance or do things that would
take her where she could meet people
L uoii hAo" just WHY uou llhe uei
any more. Her sweetness seems to
get on my nerves more than anything
else. What shall l do? K.B.
/ myself would prefer to be dropped
outright. Another way would be to
let the girl gradually realize that you
have ceased to care for her. Go to see
her less and less frequently and dis
continue the little things you used to
do to please her. This will give her a
chance to see the situation and she
can drop you, which might be plea
anter for her than the humiliation of
being dropped
