Mrs John Munro Lindsay decided
she was feeling awfully fed up with
too-much- -small-town. She had been
visiting her husbands family for q
rev days and the strain of keeping
! herself and her twins in company or
der had sadly sruf1ed her usually
sweet disposition.
Outwardly she was easy to- look
upon and pleasant to converse with
| out lnwardly she was irritated al.
most to the point of tears. She was
| literally starving for some amusing
I excitement.
! This came most opportunely tina,
| morning as she stood in her father
| in-iaw's drug store trying to keel
her babies from wrecking the entire
stock in trade. Moreover, she had
Just accepted an invitation that her
| youthfui husband had expressly for
| bidden her to accept and she dis

! him until she'd had time to adjus,

glimpse of young Prof Sheldon, who

! That's what you get for trying to

! Don't want the audience to feel
sold. too" Sheldon retorted. This

! Her brown eyes were narrowed spec

youthful professor.

she asked demurely.

fell with bang why didn't I think

Or YOU might employ the pining

Colleen Moore.s is bright colors.
Betty Blythe's is dieting; OF

Gloria Swanson's is Chinese food

Marion Davies is sport clothes

Norma Talmadge has a brand-new
one. She takes a notebook about

some one say something nice about
one of her friends she jots it down
in the little book, and that reminds
her to repeat it to them when. she
sees them. A philanthropy, I'll say!

BE Careful What You
Wash Your Child's
Hair With

| II you want to keep your child's hair in
good condition. be careful what you wash
| 1t with.
Most soaps and prepared shamp0os con-
tain too much alkali. This dries the
| scalp. makes the hair brittle. and is very
harmful. Mulsihed cocoanut oil shampoo
I (which is pure and .entire.y greaseiess)
is much better than anything else you
can use fee shampooing, us this can't pos
sibly injure the hair.
Simply put two or three -teaspoonfuls of
Mulsiied in a cup or glass with little
warm water, then moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. 1t will make
an abundance Of rich. creamy lather. ana
cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly.
The lather rinses out easily. and removes
every particle Of dust. dirt. dandrun and
excess oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly. and. it leaves it fine and silky,
bright, fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get Mulsiied cocoanut oil
sha napoo at any drug store. It is very
cheap and few ounces is enough to last
every one in the family for months. Be
sure your druggist gives you Mulsihed.-

1t happened that just at dusk he

! Us he was hopping along he suddenly
thought of that garden and began to

year.
Now. this was just the opportunity
Old Mr.. Temptation had waited for:
Run over there and have a look
whispered Old Mr.. Temptation.
Peter sat down. NO" said he most
decidedly. NO. I'll keep away from
the garden"
Everything must be growing fine
over there now" whispered Old Mr..
Temptation. 1T won't hurt anybody
for you to go over there and look
around. The young cabbages must be
worth looking at now. not to mention
the lettuce and other good things.
Looking at them won't hurt them. A

You are foolish not to have look at
it when you are SO near. Run along
over there just for minute"
No" said Peter again. though in
not quite so decided way. mo, l
won't go over there
why not?" demanded Old Mr..
Temptation. You haven't anything
in particular to do. You may as well
go over there as to go up to the Old
Orchard. Probably -S~:'ll find Old Mr..
Toad over there. ana you haven't seen
Old Mr.. Toad for long time
Il don't care" replied Peter, I'm
not going step nearer that garden
than ] am this minutes
"Pooh" cried Old Mr.. Temptation.
Pooh! 1t will do you good just to
see the things growing there. No one
will know you have been there, so what
is the harm?"
Peter sat up and looked longingly
over toward the garden. OF course,
Old Mr.. Temptation was right Just
looking at those plants wouldn't hurt
them There wouldn't be the least bit
OF harm in hopping around through
that garden as long as he didn't touch
anything. He would like to see Old
Mr.: Toad. 1t was long time since
of any one he would rather have a lit
tie gossip with. He hoped few steps
toward the garden and stopped again.
Old Mr.. Temptation. You know YOU
always do enjoy fine garden"
Peter shook his head, but il was
not very decided shake "It wouldn't
do any harm to just peek under the
fence thought he. Il will do that
