Be Careful What You
Wash Your Hair With

Many soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much free alkali which is
very injurious, as it dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Muls:fied
cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. 1t is very
cheap and beats anything else all to
pieces. You can get Mulsified at any
drug store, and few ounces will last
the whole family for months.
Two or three teaspoonfuls of Null
sified in a cup or glass with a little
warm water is all that is required.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub the Mulsified cocoanut oil in.
1t makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly,
and rinses out easily. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh
looking. bright. fluffy, wa ", and easy
to manage. Besides, it Ioosens and
takes out every particle of dust. dirt
and dandr,lff. BE sure your druggist
gives you Mulsified.-Adv.

It's Easy-If You Know Dr. Edwards
Olive Tablets

The secret of keeping young is to
feel young-to do this YOU must
watch your liver and bowels-there's
no need of having a sallow COM
pleNion-darll rings under your eyes
-pimples-a bilious look in your
face-dull eyes with no sparkle.
Your doctor will tell you ninety per
cent of all sickness comes from in
active bowels and liver.
DR.. Edwards, a well-known ply
stefan in Ohio perfected a vegetable
compound mixed with olive oil to act
on the liver and bowels. which he
gave to his patients for years.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets. the
substitute for calomel, are gentle in
their action yet always effective.
They bring about that natural buoy
ancy which all should enjoy by tom
ing up the liver and clearing the
system of impurities.
