Carmen: Those tormenting and
distressing hairs on your forearms
and face will disappear II you will
apply a paste made by mixing little
water with delatone. Apply it and
allow it to remain for two or three
minutes, then wipe off and wash with
warm water. Delatone is expensive
and retails for one dollar an ounce,
but one ounce is enough for two or
three applications-and that is all
you will ever need. Even should the
hair return after the first application
it will be thin and light colored. The
second or third application removes
it effectively and permanently.

Recognition of the surprising facts
cited above has brought about the
incorporation of the New England
Corn exposition, TO be held in Worces-
ter, Mass, in November. The OBJ
ject of the exposition is to demon
strate that New England can grow
corn and to impress upon the farmers
the value of corn as a product.
There will be informative exhibits by
the six New England agricultural col
leges and seven experiment stations.
Daily lectures on corn improvement
will be given, as well as demonstra-
lions Of seed testing and corn and
grain judging. The United States de-
furnish interesting and valuable ex-
hibits.
Want More Corn Raised.
zone of the weaknesses of farming
in New England" says J. Lewis Els
worth, secretary of the Massachusetts
state board of agriculture and one Of
the charter members of the new cor
poration, sis the failure Of the farmers
to raise their own corn"
chusetts- We want to get the farmer
interested in this so that he will raise
his own corn. Formerly a farmer
would buy his corn. since that was
cheaper than raising it. Now the
price of corn has increased by 100 per
cent since 1896. and he is not buying
so much"
The officers of the exposition, in urg-
ing a more general production of corn.
explain that Massachusetts is exceeded
in value of product per acre by only
one state-Connecticut. Despite the
fact that the cost of production is
probably higher iR Massachusetts than
in the corn belt OF the Mississippi val
ley, there is no doubt. they say, that
corn can be raised with profit in this
state, for the average price per bushel
is higher than in most states.
In 1905 the average farm prices of
corn were as follows: In the United
States as whole. % cents; in Iowa.
"a cents: in Illinois, 50 cents; in In
diana, SO cents; in Massachusetts, 90
cents.

Health and Beauty Answers
BY MRS. MAE MARTYR.

A. w. A: You say you can find
nothing that will protect tender skin
from the sun. Try this and 1 know
you will not suffer from sunburn, tan
or freckIes: Dissolve four ounces of
spurmax in one-haIf pint hot water
and add two teaspoonfuls of glycer-
inc. Apply this with the palm of the
hand, to the face, neck and forearms
in the morning and you will find it
will not rub off or show like powder.
1t is true complexion .beautifier, for
it restores and preserves the soft and
rosy color of youth. This inexpen-
who have dark, sallow or oily skin.
S. L. j.: Very few women are
blessed with eyes that are naturally
'beaming and radiant" Most proba-
bly, those dazzling eyes you envy are
the result of using a tonic to
strengthen and brighten the eyes.
Get from your druggist one ounce of
crystos and dissolve it in a pint of
water and you will have a perfect
homemade eye tonic. One or two
drops in each eye will relieve inflam-
nation, dizziness, redness and sore
ness. 1t will not smart or burn.
Many persons with weak eyesight find
they can dispense with eyeglasses
after using this tonic daily a month
or two.
G.. L. NJ: Shampoo" is a word of
Hindoo origin and means "to lather,
rub and wash the head" When
using canthrox for shampooing, dis
solve a teaspoonful in a cup of hot
water; pour on the head a little at a
time and rub well-just as you would
with an ordinary shampoo; then
rinse the hair and scalp thoroughly
with warm water. Canthrox makes
an abundance of lather and will re-
move that fine scurf of which you
complain, for it is nothing more nor
less than dandruff. Don't use soap
when shampooing, for it leaves the
scalp hot and hard and causes
streaks in the hair when drying.
When you use canthrox the hair dries
quickly and is soft, bright, fluffy and
not streaky.
Osiris: Have you tried to pre-
serve your youthful looks? Is your
husband correct when he says you
do not look as young as you should?
If you want to keep your skin clear,
fresh and velvety, you must take
care of it. Use almaZoin cream jelly
both as a massage and face cream
and your complexion will be fine and
free from blemish. Get from your
druggist one ounce of almazoin, dis
solve it in one-half pint cold water;
add two teaspoonfuls Of glycerine,
stir well and let stand over night.
Then you have a cream that contains
no oils or fats to make hair grow or
cause the skin to become dark and
greasy looking. AS a treatment for
blackheads it is effective and at the
same time mild as milk" for it COM
pletely removes the pore-dirt and de-
creases the size of the pores, so that

Alike: It is useless TO fret and
worry and feel utterly wretched Just
because you are becoming too fat
to be graceful" If you will get from
your druggist four ounces OF par
motifs and dissolve it in y pints of
hot water and take a tablespoonful
of this harmless flesh reducer before
each meal you soon will be satisfied
that, while you may not regain your
former slim and elegant figure, you
will not be so stout as to feel con-
stantly chagrined in society or bust
ness.

A. B. c.: You are right when you
say no powder or cosmetic will help
your complexion while your blood is
out of order. Good health is the
foundation Of a good complexion.
This tonic is fine for those who are
thin and sallow: Dissolve one-half
cup OF sugar and one ounce of kar-
dene in one-half pint Of alcohol; then
add enough hot water to make a full
quart and you will have a sufficient
supply of a dependable homemade
system tonic that will tone up your
system and build up your strength.
Kardene aids digestion, arouses a
torpid liver and purifies the blood.
1t will clear your complexion OF sal
lowness and pimples and give a
charming comeliness that is denied
when you purchase kardene from any
first-class druggist.

the blackheads will not return. Mas
saying with this almazoin cream pre-
vents roughness, removes wrinkles
and keeps the flesh firm and plump.
e. S. F.: You will not need to
worry about your hair coming out
when you comb it IL you will quit ex-
perimenting with ready-prepared
hair tonics. You need only to use a
good quinine tonic two or three
times week; you can prepare this
at home by dissolving an ounce of
quinzoin in one-half pint alcohol,
then adding a half pint of water.
Rub this tonic thoroughly into the
scalp and it will stop your hair COM
ing out and remove the dandruff en-
tirely. / find II excellent for Excess
sively oily, dull or brittle hair. II is
the only dependable remedy l have
ever found for hair and scalp trou-
bles and will be found very invig-
Grating.
