plexion cream that will be entirely
beneficial and not encourage growth OF
hair on the face, mix / ounce of almo-
zoin with 1s pint cold water and add
teaspoonfuls glycerine- Stir and let
stand for an hour or so. In all my ex-
perience l have never found anything
to equal almozoin jelly as an aid to
beauty. 1t is excellent for chapped
hands and face. massaging, removing
freckles, tan. wrinkles, blackheads and
dirt from the pores of the skin. 1t

BAD ROADS AROUND
SACRAMENTO RIVER
Motorists Can Not Get Through
When Going by Way of
Woodland
By R. R. L,HoMMEDIEu

Motorists who travel in the direction
of Sacramento have been warned not to
make the iorney by way of Woodland.
C. B. Gardner of the Pullman automo-
bile company recently planned to reach
the capital city from Napa. The party
went by way of Woodland and when
they reached the Sacramento river they
found that the bridge had been re-
moved to allow a dredger to go through
and had not been restored, 1t being 10
days after the passage of the dredger
Gardner has been informed that it is
not yet in place.
The Pullman party had TO retrace its
steps to Davisville and then had to
ship the car by train to the capital
city. The hardest part of the expert
ence was the fact that no warnings
had been placed on any of the roads
of the temporary discontinuance of the
bridge. which caused considerable un-
necessary delay and expense.
The experience of the Pullman party
brings to mind what the benefits of a
good live automobile club in this sec
tion would do. With the proper kind
of an organization information as to
the condition OF the bridge could have
been obtained in this city before the
journey had started.

groes are necessary to the develop.
ment of the south.
Mr. Garner. in whose district the
shooting occurred, set the Democrats
wild with his speech the only one he
has made since he has been in con.
gress. He told the house that when he
protested against sending the negroes
to Brownsville. General Oliver told
him that these negro soldiers were not
wanted anywhere, but IL was Texas

tribute to the character of the citizens
of Brownsville.

sation by supporting the bill and laud.
ing the negro soldiers.
