Washed shirt in four gallons of petrol! According to a Sydney news report, Australian prisoners of war working in Nazi dumps in Tripoli used four gallons of petrol to wash a shirt. There was little vzater for drinking and none for washing, so the Aussies decided to use as much petrol, as possible for washing—four gallons for a shirt, six for a pair of shorts and up to 10 for anything else. However, there’s no scarcity of water at the Westland Laundry, in fact, they put all clothes through seven different waters.

Bilious Folk NEED RECOURSE TO DR. MORSE’S INDIAN ROOT PILLS Biliousness is undoubtedly one of the most distressing complains that affects human beings. It is usually the result of over-indulgence in food and perhaps drink, or the wrong type of food. The sufferer becomes depressed and feels as though his whole system is upset. A frightfully dizzy headache, yellow skin, coated tongue and probably vomiting are the principal symptoms. As a corrective Dr Morse’s Indian Root Pills are an ideal medicine. They act on the Liver and Stomach, and thus regulate the Bowels. . The best plan is to take a dose before retiring when an attack is approaching, or better still, if subject to Biliousness, take a dose at regular intervals to keep the system in good order.—Advt. W.
