When you wash children's hair, be careful what you use. Do not use prepared shampoos or anything else that contains too much free alkali, for this is very injurious, as 1t dries the scalp greaseless. - It is inexpensive and beats anything else all to pieces. Two or three teaspoonfuls of Mulsified is all that is required. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an abund- ance of rich, creamy lather, which cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. 'The halr dries quickly and evenly, and a soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to man- age. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt, and dandru You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo at any drug store, and a few ounces will last for months. Be sure your druggist gives you Mulsified. Beware of imitations, Look for the name Watkins on the package. --~---- coat which Induced a stooping atti. tude, > | HER OWN WAY By a Girl of To-day. WHY GIRLS WALK HOME. As I wearily put my latch-key, in the lock, I noticed with consternation that there. was a light in mother's room. 1 knew I wis too tiréd and wet and un- comfortable 10 go into details of my evening with" dad and mother--~espec- ially dad. I opened the door softly and sat down on the stairs and removed my wet and sodden shoes. _ Sounds of conversation came from the room above where my parents slept I could~aot distinguish the words but both voiced were raised and disagree- ably raucous, They were quarreling about something, as usual. I knew that 1 would be in for an- other hour of explanations and ex- cuses and would npt be able to rest my weary body or ease my troubled mind unless 1 could. pass that door, which was slightly ajar, without my parents hearing me. I. didn't want to talk to my mother and father about this evening's episode, at least. until morning. 1 was not just sure what 1 was going to do about it myself. As I came nearer the room I uncon- sciously slowed my pace, for I was determined to pass that door without their knowing it. 1 thought exultantly that my fath- er's voice was 'raised to such a high pitch of anger that it would be impos- sible for him to hear me, but it also made it impossible for me nqt to hear what he was saying. "I tell you, Susan, I will. not have that girl staying out to this time of night. It is simply scandalous | It must be nearly morning."

There is a great shortage of houses this section, and those available tly enormous, old fashioned man- sions, costly to lease and expemsive of stables. Mayfair has, of course, long been the home of the elite. If is to Lon- don what Park Avenue and ~ Fifth Avenue are to New York. In the old days, there were many -mews filled with small buildings in which the blooded horses and the fine carriages of the aristocracy || were housed. Since thé automobile bas come into such common use, however, the glossy steeds and the || gorgeously uniformed lackeys have 1 largely joined the other pleturesque relics of the heyday of blue blood.' Now there are few mews in Mayfair these days which do not house dis- tinguished families. -- TEACHER DISMISSED Ruth McClarnon has been forced out as a teacher at Gunn City, Mo, She stuck a needle into the tongue of a pupil who had fibbed to her.
