Mrs. Tenant has just returned to
Paris after eight months Of travel

York last August Mrs. Tenant and
her husband bought a small amount
of gold to use In any emergency In

Mrs. Tenant kept 500 In gold
pieces In an envelope In her dressing
bag. She passed through various Gus

delay save for the usual formalities.
On arriving at Bellegarde on the
French frontier on her way to Geneva
a few days ago Mrs. Tenant fell into

cursory inspection. and. in most cases,

children had $3.50 in American gold
taken away from her recently by the

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Mulsified cocoanut
oil shampoo (Which is pure and entire
ly greaseless), is much better than
anything else you can use for sham
pooling, as this can't possibly injure
the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
of Mulsified will make an abunda nee
of rich, creamy lather, 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 evenly, 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 few ounces is en-
ough to last everyone in the family
| for months.
Be sure your druggist gives you

heaven FOR HORSES
WILL Be GRATEFUL
FOR BOSTON'S CARE
From the Boston Transcript


Bostons annual work horse parade
has become an institution.
If the Indians be right and there
exists a heaven for horses, that heav-
en- is certainly grateful to Boston and
to the Boston Work Horse Relief As
ISOLATION. In 1908 Boston witnessed
the first work horse parade in Amer !
lea.
The "oId Horse" Class
No little attention is paid by the
judges to the veteran horses in the
parade. An old horse. Henry c. Mer-
win, president of the association, says,
is like an old man. His gums recede,
hollows form above his eyes and
many of his hairs turn white. Need
less to say, he deserves greater care,
and if he is given the proper attention
he will still render good services.
Merwin recalls one of these veterans
who had been in the harness thirty
five years and who was so frisky that
he threw his driver. 1t is difficult to
estimate the exact age of an old horse.
One year there we're sixty horses in
this class. but last year the number
was cut down to thirty, largely due to
the automobile.
Among the prizes given to the old
horses are a gold medal from the So
ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals and silver medals from the
Red Acre farm and the Animal Res
cue League, while the relief associa-
ton also offers a number of awards.
And allied to the veteran horses,
through the strong bands of affection,
are the veteran drivers. They belong
to 2 special class and to qualify they
must have been N the service of one
employer for twenty years. A driver
for the Boston Ice company now has
the record for the longest service,
having held the reins for fifty-two
years. Thomas McGrath, truckman,
stands next in point of continuous
service, having driven forty-eight
years.
Bath Houses for Horses
Boston % was the first place to
arrange ,-b,rse shower baths" in sum-
mer. There are five or six of these
shower baths and watering stations
in Greater Boston. This humanitarian
work was started in 1911. When the
sun sends the mercury sizzling. tired
work horses can receive a good dous-
ing at one of these stations. A man
with a horse sprinkles their legs and
heads and also washes out their
mouths. The horses so love this mouth
washing that they often cling to the
nozzle of the hose with their teeth
refusing to let the man draw the hose
out. Great care is always taken not
to allow the horses to become chilled

being put into the harness. Thai
would repay the owners many times
the costs, Merwin says.
