~ A Shampoo That Will Not
: Whiten the Hair
" The wserious objections to chep
ghampoos are that they contain im
purities and alkalis. They burn and
deaden the hair, deprive it of life and
color, make the scalp and hair dry
and eventually white, Only natural
blends of the purest and most highly
;:-fim-d Cocoanut and Palm oils as
blended in Shuco Shampoo should
be used. Shuco Shampoo is a perfect
waponification suspended in a solution
that easily changes Into a bushel of
flch. creamy, bubbling and sparkling
dather. |
Apply to the moistened hair and
rub well adding water and shampoo
®s needed. It vanishes all dirt, dust
and dandruff, rinses out quickly and
perfectly, leaving the hair soft as
welvet, light and fluffy. Your mirror
will tell you why Shuco Shampoo
makes hair with a thousand lights,

MACON, Ga., March 17.—Unless|
city detectives apprehend thieves w hni
have stolen SB,OOO worth of groceries
the past month, the department may
have charges filed against it with the
civil service eommission. The dv[m*-!
tives made no announcement of lnn‘
thieves' ralds, but one of the v'u'-t
tims, a wholesale grocer, said hiq'
store had been entered three times|
and an automobile load of groceries|
stolen in each instance. It was re
ported to the police without results,
he said.
Other grocers have announced
raids have been made on their places |
but effort by police to locate the
burglars have been fruitless. Victims
of the burglaries have become ex
asperated. They are at a loss to r-x-l
plain why something can not be done
by the police i
- Akin and Company, Bibb Grocery |
(‘ompany, Ruan and Company smdl
others have lost heavily. Special po-|
licemen have been employed to watch |
these stores at night since the last!
robbery, in which burglars carted
away more than SSOO worth of goods,
The robbers always used an auto
mobile truck to haul their spoils. '
Insurance companies are threaten
ing to cancel burglary insurance car

The new policy of the Judges of
Superior Court in directing that no
undefended divorce cases shall be
placed on the docket for trial except
on written request of attorneys has
served to decrease the number of
cases on the calendar, according to
Deputy Clerk J. Clarke Lewis, who
is arranging the calendar.
Despite this decrease, however, the
calendar, which will go to trial Mon
day week before Judge W. D. Ellis
in Superior Court, will contain at
least 200 cases, it was disclosed.
The docket for the last session of
Divorce Court, conducted in the Jan

Deputy Clerk I.ewis said he expect

It was believed that the new rule
would have only temporary effect on
the size of the docket, as it was re
