WELL WATER AT
OUTDOOR GUSHER
NEW, COOL DRINK

Cold drinks Of well water drawn
from the Sturtevant & Baker ice
and ice cream plant well are now
being dispensed at drinking foun-
tain outside the plant, between the
sidewalk and curb at the intersec-
ton of Fifth avenue and Sixteenth
street. This service to the public
is the result Of installation OF
porcelain drinking fountain, placed
there by the company this week.
The wafer remains constantly at
SO degrees Fahrenheit, as cold as
the average ice water. 1t is mere
ly we'll water that has been scien-
tifically purified, however, and INC
best drink in town. The fountain
is SO arranged. also that buckets
may be filled.
The fountain is constantly run
ming, operating night and day,
eliminating the trouble Of pushing
levers or turning handles to- pro-
duce the drink. So many people
visited the fountain in the engine
room that it was thought advisable
to institute a public fountain out
side both as a convenience 10 the
public and to keep the crowds
from filling the plant engine room.

Alkali In Soap
Bad For the Hair

Soap should be used very careful
ly, if you want to keep your hair
looking its best Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain too
much alkali. This dries the scalp,
makes the hair brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo
(Which is pure and greaseless), and
is better than anything else you can
use.
Two or three teaspoonfuls of
Mulsified in cup or glass, with a
little warm water is sufficient to
cleanse the hair and scalp thorough
ly. Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. 1t makes an
abundance of rich creamy lather,
which rinses out easily, removing
every particle Of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves
the scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and
easy to manage
You can get Mulsified /cocoanut
oil shampoo at any pharmacy, it's
very cheap, and a few ounces will
supply every member of the family
for months. Be sure your druggist
gives you Observation-Disclosures
