AutomobiIa Tons-

The practice Of running an automo-
bile with the top up when 1t is not
needed is costly, according to tests
which l made. says contributor to
Popular Mechanics. When the back
OF the top cannot be rolled up the re-
sistance is especially great. Six miles
more were obtained from a gallon Of
gasoline with the top rolled and COW
cred as compared with having the top
up with the back closed. When going
against the wind this extra pull is es-
pecially heavy, and difficulty in max
ing a hard climb may often be relieved
by lowering the top. Careful regula-
ton Of the top, using 1t only when es.

Heavy Warm Clothing
on Way to Sailors in
u. S. North Sea Fleet

Washington, May II. - The report
from Queenstown that the sailors of
the American destroyer tfotilla which
has arrived in the war zone were not
supplied with warm enough clothing
for the cold latitude was explained
to-day by the fact that the destroy
ers sailed from American ports be-
fore the supplies could be put on
board Complete outfits of heavy
wooden and rubber clothing for all
the men are now on their way to the
men. The crews of every destroyer
which has left subsequently have
been completely outfitted.
To the women of the United States
| is due the credit for this measure
of protection. Under direction of
the Navy League thousands of Amer
lean women have been knitting wool
en- garments and n special fund has
felt boots.
American warships have never be-
fore been called upon for service in
such cold climates and therefore, the
regulation clothing outfit was not
suitable for the North Sea service
against submarines. Secretary DAN
iels recognized this fact and in an
official order called upon the Navy
League to enlist the aid of American

jackets clothing. In almost every
cit this work is under way under
the direction of the Navy League and
IL will be continued until every man
in the navy is thoroughly equipped
tor any war service.
Both officers and enlisted men
have written letters to the league eX-
tending their thanks to the Amrican
women. A commander In war SER
vice abroad sent the following letter
which Is typical of all:
II have the pleasure OF acknowl-
edging the receipt of outfits of wool
en- clothing from the Navy League.
1t is greatly appreciated as the SER
vice of destroyers is full of hard
ships, especially when campaigns are
conductd in cold latitudes. These

more comfortable but render them

HOW TO BE RID
OF DISGUSTING
DANDRUFF

The only way to get permanently
rid of disgusting. untidy dandruf Is
to correct it's cause. Shampooing
merely cleanses the scalp for few
days, then the scales form again as
thick as ever.
To destroy the dandruff germ and
get rid of the dandruff for good, part
the hair and apply a little of the
senuine Partisan Sage directly on
the bare scalp and rub it in with the
finger tips until absorbed. You will
surely be amazed at the result of
even one application, for your hair
and scalp will look and feel 100 per
cent. better.
Only few days massage with
Partisan Sage should be needed to
destroy the germs that cause the
dandruff to form. The scalp becomes
healthy, the hair will grow better and
show more life and vitality and you
should no longer be troubled by dan
druff. Faded, dull or lifeless hair
is quickly restored to beauty by this
simple treatment, which is abso-
lutely harmless and will not stain
the hair or make it greasy.
A large bottle, enough to last "a
long time, can be obtained from III.
C. Kennedy and druggists every
where, and is not expensive. Be sure
you get the genuine Partisan Sage
(GirouX's), as that is the one that
is guaranteed by the makers.
