WHEN YOU BUY YOUR CAR.

A writer in the Farm and Fireside
says about purchasing new cars:
Automobile prospects make seri-
Gus mistakes by adniring the dressy
part Of car instead of what that
car will do. It's not altogether the
engine in car that males a car.
Some men when they see non-skid
on both front and rear tires think
they get more service. That is un-
true. The wind shield is another thing
to notice. II the car you intend TO
buy has wind shield sIanting to-
ward the rear it's all right One set
straight up and down is a menace in
storms because it fails to keep your
glass clean.
1T is foolish for men to buy cars
just because they are good enough to
make certain hill on high In the
first place. it does no car any good TO
race to make a hill on high. Put 1t
on second If you are in doubt, and
you will play safe"

HOROSCOPE.
Thursday, June 20. 1915.


This is not a lucky day. according

Mars are all adverse.
The aged should be particularly
careful during this rule which pres

While the stars appear to fore

produced by the country's share in
the war.
This is not an auspicious rule un-

HOW TO JUDGE A WOMAN
BY HER HAIR.

There is real common sense in
just noticing whether the Lair is
we'll kept to judge of a woman s
neatness, or good taste. If you
are one of the few who try to
make the most of your hair, re-
member that it is not advisable to
wash the hair with any cleanser
made for all purposes, but always
use some good shampoo. You can
enjoy the very best by getting
some Canthrox from your drug
gist; dissolve a teaspoonful in a
cup of hot water. This makes a
full cup of shampoo liquid, enough
so it is easy to apply it to all the
hair instead of just the top of the
head. Dandruff, excess oil and dirt
are dissolved and entirely disap-
pear. Your hair will be so fluffy
that it will look much heavier than
it is. Its luster and softness will
also delight you, while the slim
ulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth.-Adv,
