Cocoanut Oil Makes
a Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with. -
Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkaH. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brit
tie, and is very harmful. Mulsified
cocoanut Oil shampoo (Which IL
pure and entirely greaseless), is
much better than anything else you
can use for shampooing, as this
can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two
teaspoonsful of Mulsified will make
an abundance of rich, creamy lath-
er. and cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The lather rinses out
easily and removes every particle Of
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive
oil. The hair dries quickly and even
ly. and it leaves it fine and silky,
bright, fluffy and easy to manage
You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil
shampoo at most any drug store. 1t
Is very cheap, and a few ounces is
enough to last everyone in the fami-
ly for months. Be sure your drug
gist gives you Mulsifed.

SURE WAY TO GET
RID OF BLAckHEADs

There is one simple. safe and sure
way that never fails to get rid of black
heads and that is to dissolve them.
To do this get two ounces of calonite
powder from any drug store--sprinkle a
little on a hot. wet sponge-rub over
the blackheads briskly--wash the parts
and you will be surprised how the black
heads have disappeared. Big blackheads,
little blackheads. no matter where they
are, simply dissolve and disappear. leaving
the parts without any mark whatever
Blackheads are &mply mixture of dust
and dirt and secretions from the body
that form in the pores of the skin
pinching and squeezing only cause irri-
tation, make large pores, and do not get
them out after they become hard. The
calonite powder and the water simply
dissolve the blackheads so they wash
right out, leaving the pores free and
clean and in their natural condition. Any
body troubled with these unsightly blem-
ishes should certainly try this simple
method.

Why Spring Brings Out
Freckles and Eruptions

The sudden appearance Of freckles,
slight eruptions or fine lines at this
season is attributed by scientists to the
"actinic ray" which is unusually active
during the spring months. Where the
skin is so affected by this influence, II
one will procure an ounce of ordinary
mercolized wax at any drug store. apply
little of it before retiring. like cold
cream. she can easily overcome the
trouble. When the wax is washed off
next morning. minute flaky skin par
ticles come with it. The entire outer
cuticle is removed in this way in a week
or two. with all its defects. No bleach
could so effectually remove freckles or
blemishes. The new surface is smooth,
clear, fresh looking. No harm or incon-
venience accompanies this simple treat
ment.
In case of wrinkles which sink beneath
the outer skin, solution Of saxolite,
one ounce, dissolved in one-half pint
witch hazel, makes a face bath which is
wonderfully effective.

How to Put It Over

And dozens of rnildewed old tones.
And most of them now have grown
blue in the face
While waiting and hoping for fame,
And dreaming that some time a
whale of a case
Will earn them widely known
name.
The Lawyer who's shrewd and su-
premely astute
Gives his time to the income laws
clauses,
And never burns oil in the futile pur-
suit
OF pleadings and motions and
causes.
And if he can dope some good jail
proof device
To cut mans taxes in two
He'll always be able to name his
own price
From the people in Wall Streets
"Who's Who"
It's not the big lawyers who maxirns
can quote,
And reel off profound legal saws,
The boys who succeed are the boys
who devote
Their time to the income tax Laws!

Dear LII got your letter this

H. D. w. NJ. called up this morn
in. Who do you 's'pose he married?
You've guessed it without my tellin'
you. He looked very smart in new

after you an Flopsy an if you ever
saw N. G.. any more. I'm glad to
hear you're goin' to visit P. M. H. I
hope you have a good time an re-
main etc"
An then there's the letter that
shows how in spite of bein' great he
was fond of his family. 1t is wrote
to his little daughter from the sea-
shore:
"Note," says the edter, what a
keen observer Cotuit was an what
lover of material history. No detail
escaped him.
Dear Daughter" says the letter,
~ hope the cold in your head is bet
ter. This is lovely place. On the
lawn in front OF the house is nice
grass an in the middle tree with
green leaves. This mornin' when |
looked Out of my window there was
goat standin' outside. He had a

waddy."
If he'd only known he was goin
to be great he needn't have done It,
There ought to be law against
takin' advantage of mans igner-
ance.
Then, as time goes on, the public
fergets just what it was he done
to make him famous. They begin
hangin' stories on him like Christ
mas tree SOS to have some excuse
fer not workin' on his birthday.
"One night Cotuit, while traveln
through local town, was overcome
by darkness an forced TO put up at
the village Inn. His supper was
brought to him in a bowl by a pref
ty country girl. who became so i'm
baressed by his admirin' glances
that she split the steamin' contents
down his neck.

"You've split the soup on my |
head replied the great man with a
reassurin' smile. 1t is said that the |
friendship thus begun endured fer

No, my son. Fame may be the
life work of some an the hobby of
others, but not fer me. It's my aim !
to live so that my relatives an
friends will ferget me before they
have time to think up any imbares-
