The best thing to use is Mulsified cocoanut ofl shampoo, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It is inex- pensive and beats anything else all to pleces. Two or three teaspoonfuls of Mulsi- fied is all that is required. Bimply moisten the halr with water and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easlly. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to manage. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dandruff. You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo at any drpg store, and a few ounces will lnv for months. Be sure and ask for “Mul- sified.” Owning a two-car garage is a pretty good investment; there is sure to be someone near you who would like to rent that extra space; at that rate, it doesn’t take long to pay for your garage.

Look both ways and listen, being particularly careful where there are two or more tracks, because of trains in opposile direction.” (Am. Railway Ass, Safety Section) (b HY IS lT, I WONDER, that you still read about so many automobile‘accidents at railroad crossings? With the thou- sands of smashed cars and undertakers’ bills caused this way, youd suppose that every motorist would put on the old thinking cap when he spots a crossing. ({3 “I saw a smash once, and that was enough for me. No more taking chances for Yours Truly after that, or ‘hoping’ there isn’t a train com- ing. You can't absolutely trust anything but your own eyes to tell you whether the track is clear or not. The flagman may not be on duty when you happen along. The automatic signal may be out of order. The train may be coasting quietly down a grade toward the crossing. There are a dozen ‘mays’, and ‘may nots’, and ‘ifs’. “No siree! Life’s too short and sweet to take blind chances at grade crossings—when it's so simple and easy to make sure. My tip is: always assume there is a train coming.
