CITY N COUNTRY.

We were somewhat surprised to
read the contrast between city and
country as drawn by the Newark
Evening News recently. Evidently
the News Is p~rejudiced against the
country. In commenting 0 two re-
ports that appeared the same day,
one from the csnsu bureau. on agri-
culture in New Jersey. andsthe otEer
by the state tenement house commits
sion, the Newark paper said
elm ten a there has been a de-
crease OF 1,l63 farms In this state.
Today there are 267,109 less acres
cultivated here than there were a de-
cade ago. In seven years tenement
accommodations for approximately
236,390 people have been provided.
In that same space OF time there
have hean erected T,4e5 tenement
houses at a total cost of $69,291,00O.
There isn't any question, therefore.
70 far as Jersey Is concerned, about
the drift cityward, or some folks
might describe lit as a tidal wave.
Why Is it?
ssListen to the report OF the Tene-
ment-house Commission. This
great army of tenement dweiIers,' it
reads, is now housed In apartments,
each of which has sinks and running
water,
"And then remember, back on the
farfs, the ~babbiing brook and the
old slophoIe.
mo room containing less than
seventy square feet, and every room
at least nine feet high from floor to
ceiling, each room having a window
opening directly on the outer air.
continues the report.
Don't forget for a minute the lit
Atetattic. with its low Tafte4s, it's
crack along the chimney to let in the
sunshine and the rain, as we'll as a
little air, and the string of onions
to add flavor.

when the garbage man comes around
and carries off the refuse? Why hg

and hear all of the gossip Of tbs

One would infer from this tina
the decrease in the number of cul
tlynted acres In the state is due Il

A Home Recipe For
Removing Wrinkles

(From woman's National Journal)
Who win blame the modern woman for
trying 10 look as young and attractive as
she reasonably can? Why should she be
placed at a disadvantage IN numerous
ways by wearing wrinkles, II she can
avoid these hateful marks OF advancing
age?
Few women. however. know what TO do
20 effecnally rid themselves OF wrinkles
or segginess. None Of the advertised
preparations Is satisfactory and most Of
them are very expensive. But a simple
and harmless home remedy. which any
woman can make. will work wonders
where all the patent preparations fail.
Buy an ounce OF powdered saxolite at
any drug store. Dissolve the whole ounce
in half pint OF witch hazel and use II as
. wash lotion This results are practically
instantaneous. Marked Improvement is
noticed Immediately after the very first
trial. Wrinkles and sagging are corrected
and the face feels so refreshed and SNUG
like.-Adv.
