Cleveland, Ohio, May ia vast
Improvement is shown in business
conditions here by reports of the
Cleveland Electric Illuminating
company which furnishes practic-
ally all the power and light for
business and Industrial plants in

pany show that the average amount
of power used the first week Of
January was 1.775.0e0 kilowatt
hours. This rate was maintained
until April when it advanced to

Business men here regard the

trade conditions and are encouraged

A1kai in Shampoos
Bad For Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali, which
is. very injurious, as it dries the
scalp and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Muisi-
fled cocoanut oil shampoo, for this
is pure and entirely greaseless. It's
very cheap and beats anything else
all to pieces. You can get Mulsified
at any drug store, and a few ounces
will last the whole family for
months.
Two or three teaspoonfuls Of
Muisified in a cup or glass with a
little warm water Is all that is re-
ouired. It makes an abundance OF
rich, creamy lather, cleanses
thoroughly, and rinses out easily.
The hair dries quickly and evenly

 Although of rich materials, there was nothing obtrusive or striking in her dress. Her hat was a brown velvet, with a brim of moderate width, around wNsch was a pleated band of brown interwined with gold leaves.
 But She Follows Custom
 It was her jewelry, rather than her gown or hat, that bespoke the wearer's wealth. On her right hand sparkled an immense diamond, On the third finger Of Ter left hand were two great pearls as large as hazel nuts. Two black pearls, mates apparently to the one in the ring, hung from her ears. A diamond chain encircled her left wrist.

 We put the price of our new car at the Ford level because we found it could be done" he said. But have no thought of a price war.

 The auto mobile field is SO limit less that there is room for both even though we will build 215.00e low priced cars this coming year.
 "The one problem that must be solved is that of traffic. Highways are being built exactly pareIlel to railroad development; two three and four road systems are already be ginning, and I see in the future a network of highways with separate sections for passenger cars and trucks, each with one-way divisions Thus America can absorb many times the 10,000,000 athines that are now in use. The greater prob lem is in the cities. Perhaps double deck streets will be the solution"
 Durant, following up this subject has just written 10 the Merchants Association of New York urging the appointment oi a ccInul:SSiop to study the traffic Itonlem.
