TALKING to a roomful of high 1school girls on personal hygiene, an experienced district nurse said: "One of the basic rules of health for girls is to keep the system functioning naturally at all times. Normal exercise and diet habits should be encouraged. But when necessary there's no harm in taking nujol, since it works mechani- cally and can't disturb the normal functions of any organ of the body. Particularly with girls, there are times when nujol should always be taken, Take spoonful every night for few days. It's thoroughly safe and harm- less method. It won't cause distress or gas pains or griping."
 Not Like Medicine
 Nujol is different from any other sub stance. It contains no drugs or medi- cine. It can be taken safely no matter how you are feeling because it is so pure and harmless, and works 30 easily. Every woman should keep a bottle on hand. Every druggist has this remarkable substance. Get the genuine. Perfected by the famous Chemical Products Division of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey. Look for the Nujol bottle with the label on the back that you can read right through the bottle.

When the Rocky Mountain Gas
company came into Cody as a pub
lie utility serving the people of
this community with gas for domes-
tic and commercial purposes II was
necessary hat each user sign a
contract with the gas company
which freed them of any liability
which might occur by reason of
the gas and its use. Each user
in Cody had to sign one of these
contracts. before he could secure
the 8 of gas. and rather than be
without the use of gas many signed
under protest.
However m person. Ernest j.
Goppert. attorney refused to sign
the contract, charging that 1t was
unjustified, and permitted the COM
pany to withdraw it from his prem
Uses. However he took the matter
up with the state board of utilities
and has secured a ruling to the
effect that the blank used by the
Rocky Mountain Gas company is
unwarranted, and they have been
advised to revise their contracts,
emitting the liability clause. The
new blanks are now available al
