Prohibition Rejected in Many States

One OF the significant results of the
balloting last Tuesday was the very
obvious decision of the people of sev-
eral states tiat they did not want TO
be inflicted with the scandal of haV-
ing law placed upon the statute
books they knew from the experience
of neighbors could not be enforced.
Florida voted decisively against pro
hibition, as did Missouri by an over
whelming majority. oregon also re-
fused to put prohibition in its con
sitution and Utah rejected state

SAVED OLD LADY'S HAIR

MY mother used to have very bad
humor on her head which the doctors
called an eczema, and for it had two
different doctors. Her head was very
sore and her hair nearly all fell out
in spite of what they both did. One
day her niece came in and they were
speaking of how her hair was falling
out and the doctors did it no good.
She says, Aunt, why don't you try
Cuticura Soap and Cuticura oint-
ment?' Mother did and they helped
her. In six months time the itching.
burning and scalding of her head was
over and her hair began growing. To-
day she feels much in debt to Cut-
cura Soap and Ointment for the finc
head of hair she has for an old lady
of seventy-four.
MY own case was an eczema in my
feet. AS soon as the cold weather
came my feet would itch and burn and
then they would crack open and bleed.
Then 1 thought l would fee to my
mothers friends, Cuticura Soap and
Cuticura Ointment. I did for four or
five winters. and now my feet are as
smooth as any ones. Ellsworth Dun

PERFUME FAVORED BY QUEENS
Royal Family OF England Remain
Faithful to "Ess Bouquet"-Czar-
ina Is Fond Of White Violet.

Queen Mary is not lover OF per-
fume. She uses eau de cologne occa-
sionally, but avoids scents as much
as possible. A west end chemist told
the writer recently that neither is
Queen Alexandra very fond of per-
fumes, although she remains faithful
to the "Ess Bouquet" which has
been in use by the royal family Of
England since 1922. This perfume is
composed of amber mixed with the
essences of roses, violets, jasmine,
orange flowers and lavender.
On the other hand the Czarina is
passionately fond of perfume. Her
apartments in the royal palace are
daily sprayed with essences of lilac,
jasmine, and white violet. Her Maj
esty's favorite essence is violet, and
for several weeks in the early spring
hundreds of women and girls may be
seen at Grasse gathering the bios
SONS from which the CZarina's per-
fume is made. The finished product
is tested, bottle by bottle, at the St.
Petersburg Academy of Chemistry
before being sent to the imperial
store.
The Queen Mother of Spain uses as
perfume eau d'espagne. manufactured
in Madrid. and also obtains per-
fume for her toilet from Paris. Its
composition is a secret which the
perfumer only half discloses. 1T is
made" he says, "of rosewater, cocoa
nut oil, and-the rest is mystery"
The young Queen OF Holland is a
great believer in the virtues OF eau
de cologne; while Carmen Sylvia
Queen of Roumania, uses special
perfume made from the finest herbs,
which she says "is the best tonic for
the skin she has yet discovered"
