SOUTH AF3lCA'5 NEW HIGH
MAN

For many years it has been
dream of the Provincial Council in
South Africa to have a highway
which would follow in a semi circle
the coast line of the peninsula. This
dream has just become a reality.
This 125 mile drive, a great engi-
necring feet, now skirts the rock
bound coast.
The road passes the historic Cape
of Good Hope which was first
rounded by the Portuguese navigator
Bartholomew Diaz in 1856. In 1862
the Dutch East India Company took
possession and it was not until 1873
that British forces first occupied the
country. When the early settlers
landed, they had to scramble up the
rocky shores for quite Il distance in
search Of suitable sites to build their
primitive homes. For the greater
part of its course tho new road is cut
from the mountain rocks which over
hang the turbulent ocean hundreds of
feet below.
For some years pas the sum of
0.0OUc has been annually expended
in the work of construction. Prince
Arthur of Connaught, the Governor
General of South Africa, says that
this Peninsula road is the finest ma
rine drive in the world and that 1t
surpasses even the famous CornIchc
Road in southern France.
Travellers who have visited TINS
section of Africa are eloquent in their
praise of its rugged beauty. The nigh
mountains a short distance from the
shore arc dotted with orchards ana
vineyards, While the conflicting wa
tiers of the Atlantic and Indian
Oceans furiously lash the ock-bound
coast amidst the shrieks of the sea

Ee Careful What You Wash
Your Chiid's Hair With

If YOU want 70 keep your child S
hair in good condition, be careful
what you wash il with.
Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brit
tie. and is very harmful. Mulsifled
cocoanut oil shampoo (Which is pure
and entirely greaseless), is much bet
ter than anything else you can use
for shampooing, as this can't posi-
bly, injure the hair
Simply put two or three teaspoon
fuls Of Mulsified in a cup or glass
with little warm water, then mois-
ten the hair with water and hub 1t in.
1t Will make an abundance Of rich,
creamy lather, and cleanse the hair
and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle Of dust, dirt, dandruff and
excess oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves it fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
age.
You can get Mulsifcd cocoanut oil
shampoo at any drug store. 1t is very
chcap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family Tor
months. Be sure your druggist gives
you Mulsified.-AdV.

Amazon and are cultivating the coca
tree on a large scale. Cocaine is ex-
tractcd from the coca leaf. In raw
state the coca leaf has the same eff
feet upon the South American In
dams as opium has upon the Chinese.
Coca leaves are dried in the sun
light and shipped in sacks. Not only
in the large cities. but in the small
settlements of the interior in front of
the little stores, coca leaves are dis
played to tempt the passing Indians.
The intelligent white population of
South America feels less concern
about Europeans and Asiatics be-
coming drug fiends than they do
about the South American Indians
becoming inefficient as day laborers
and even rs burden bearers. AS In
dian laborers are pushed aside. the
japanese employ on their plantations
japanese coolies, who somehow make
an entry through the small ports.
In marked contrast to the coca
chewing Indians Of Peru, the Indians
OF Chile where the coca leaf is not
known, are strong, vigorous, and in

Ruling Made on
Civil War Widows

Washington. Aug. 19-(By A. P)-
The Secretary of the Interior has Just
rendered a very interesting opinion
relating to former widows of veterans
Of the civil war.
Under the act of May /, 1920. such
q widow must show that all subsc-
qucnt marriages have been dissolved
and, in case of divorce, that the
same was obtained without default
on her part. Tho records of the
courts Of the various states, both
under the act of 1920 and prior legis-
lation, have been accepted by the
Bureau OF Pensions as conclusive
where the husband obtained the di-
vorce from the wife, as showing fault
on the part of the wife.
The secretary now rules, however
that where the husband moved into
some other state than that where the
wife resided and obtained service by
publication. and there is nothing in
the record to show actual service on
the wife, the wife would he entitled
to make a showing that she was not
at fault and that such showing could
be made in the Pension Bureau itself.
The case in which the decision was
rendered is that of Mary NJ. as form
er widow of William keaton, who
died in 1879. Several years after
ward the widow married a man
named Irwin. in Missouri. Irwin sub
scqucntly moved to Oklahoma. and
in 1904 obtained a divorce without
knowledge on the part of his wife
Under the former practice, the
widow would be denied the pension
because the husband obtained the
divorce. Under the present ruling,
the widow will be entitled to make a
showing, as a matter of fact. that
she was not at fault.
Another interesting opinion OF the
secretary is in the reversal of a de-
cision Of the Bureau of Pensions and
the permission of pension to
Claiborne Beatty, of Captain David
Beaty's Independent company Of
scouts.
Captain David Beatty organized
his scouts in 1862, and the company
rendered service under the command
of the army Of Tennessee through
the Civil war. The troops, however,
were never mustered into the regular
military service of the United States,
and consequently the scouts had no
status under the pension laws.
In 1870, however, an act was passed
