Hair Often Ruined
By Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very carefully. il
you want to keep your hair looking its
best. Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle,
and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is lust
ordinary mulsihed cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and greaseless), and is better
than the most expensive soap or any,
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the. hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
,moisten the hair with water and rub i

creamy lather, which rinses out easily
removing every particle of dust. dirt
dandrutt and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, ard il leaves
the scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy to
manage
You can get mulsihed cocoanut oil at
any pharmacy, it's very cheap. and few
ounces will supply every member of the
family for months. ~

KEEP EYE ON
THE BATTERY
AND TIRES

The tires that relieve your car from
the shock of the road and the stor-
age battery that supplies current
for lighting and starting are similar
in several ways, according to the Cog
gins Garage, the local Willard experts.
It's easy to see that there is re-
semblance between the air held under
pressure in the tire and the electric.
ity held ready for service by the bat
terry. In both the tire and battery you
are depending on common but invisi-
BILE forces.
Of all points of similarity between
tire and battery, however, the strong
est is that of care required. Your
tires, for instance, may go on mile
after mile without giving you a bit
of trouble. Then on little stretch of
rough road there may come a pop"
and you're on flat tire. The tiro was
a good tire up to the minute it blew,
and could have been repaired at small
cost; but for weeks, perhaps, that
spot may have been wearing deepei
into the casing.
These conditions are closely paral-
leled in the storage battery with cleo
tricity instead of air as the force to
be held in check; and the insulation
in place Of the tire casing. When the
battery is new the insulation is per-
feet just as new tire casing is free
from flaws. AS time goes on some
slight weakness may develop. If you
watch your battery these can be
taken care of at very small cost and
no serious trouble will come up.
No matter how perfect your tires
or battery are, it pays well to keep
your eye on them and stop the little
troubles before they develop into big
ones.

NEW AUTOS IN
GREAT DEMAND

Indicative of the general prosperity
throughout Southern California and
strikingly emphasizing how vital the
automobile has become to this section
of the state in conveying passengers,
hauling freight and speeding up bus
mess in general, is shown in a recent
summary of automobile registrations
compiled by the Auto Mailing service
of Los Angeles, expert automobile
statisticians and registration list pub
fishers.
Proof of the seemingly inexhausible
demand for new automobiles and
trucks is found in the fact that to-
tai of 1885 new passenger cars
and 2,754 new trucks were sold and
delivered by motor car dealers in the
eleven counties comprising Southern
California during the first seven
months of 1919-January to July, in
elusive.
There were total of 13,477 pas
senger automobiles and 1885 trucks
registered during the similar seven
months period of 1918 in Southern
California, according to the Auto
Mailing service, or 3,478 less passen-
ger vehicles and 1919 fewer CONNER
cial cars than have been delivered to
motorists thus far in 1919.

us. FABRIC. TIRES,
GREAT FAvOR|Tt

The advent of cord construction in
automobile tires has made possible the
manufacture Of tires which give as
founding mileages, yet there are many
automobile owners who have found
so great degree of satisfaction | n
some favorite brand of fabric tires,
that they are loath to change to the
new type.
President J. Newton Gum, of the
United States Tire company has re-
ceived this letter from a New Haven
merchant, telling why he remains
firm in his allegiance to the Chain
tread:
81 think 2O,346 miles up to date is
a remarkable record for three out of a
set of five Of. your 35x Az Chain
tread tires. They are still on my sew
en-passenger car in serviceable con-
dtion and the car is used every day.
I "The full set of. five tires was put
on my new the first week in March
1915. The first of the set went out
Of commission April 2, 1918, after
running 16,103 miles. The second
blew out beyond repair the month fol-
lowing, but the remaining three have
been running ever since.
