How to Remove A
Bad Complexion
[From London Fashions.l


Cosmetics can never really help
poor complexion; often they are posi-
lively harmful The sensible, rational
way is to actually remove the thin
veil of sitting, half-dead scarf skin
from the face and give the fresh, Wig
orous and beautiful young skin UNI
dereneath chance to show itself and
to breathe.
This is best done in very simple
way, by merely applying mercolizea
wax at night, like cold cream, and
washing 1t off in the morning. Good
mercolized wax can be obtained from
any we'll stocked druggist. 1t absorps
the disfguring cuticle gradually and
harmlessly leaving brilliant natur-
al complexion. OF course this also
takes with 1t all such facial blemishes
as red blotches, tan, moth patches
sallowness, liver spots, pimples, etc
AS freckle remover and general
complexion beautifaer this old-fashion
ed remedy is unequaled.

BIG PAY DAY
ON WATER POWER
Nearly $4,000 Distributed in Pay
Checks Among the Laborers
on Both Sides of the
River.
RECORD IN PIER WORK
One Day Was Put in During ths
Past Week and the Eighth
Draft Tube Was compIet-
ed on This Side.
RECORD IN PIER WORK

Saturday, which was the largest
pay day the Mississippi River Power
company has had since the work on
the mile-wide dam was begun in jan
uary. 1910, also marked the compile
ton of pier No. 50 on the Illinois d.
vision and draft tube No. on the
power house construction.
During the day the laborers on
both divisions received their pay
checks and the amount of money
paid out will reach nearly to the $780,
900 mark. This, of course. does not
include the salaried employees who
receive their checks the first OF
every month. The force of men now
at work is larger than it has ever
been. 1t will hardly be increased to
any material extent from the present
time until the big project is COM
pleted in July, 1913.
With eight draft tubes concreted,
the water power company feels that
1t is making good progress on this
side of the river. The draft tubes,
thirty in all, are built into the lower
part of the power house structure
and are passages through which the
water will be discharged from the tur
bine wheels. They are moulded into
the concrete foundation. The openings
are below the water level and consid
erably below the general level of the
he'd of the river, SO that large
amount of rock excavation Is neces
sary before the power house founda
ton can be built.

New Record Last Week.

The water power company has
been making an effort to put in one pier
each day from the Illinois division,
but until the past week no perfect
record had been made However,
from monday until Saturday the force
over there accomplished the feat of
putting in six, or one day, thus es-
tablishing record for the work.
There are now fifty-two arches in
and the spillway sections in about
one-fourth of this number. The work
has extended we'll out from shore.

Nezperce. Idaho.
Dear Sir:
/ received a copy Of ye=r paper
recently containing an article relat-
ing to the Noxious Weed Law pas
sed BY the last Legislature. Itseems
to be alright. But farmers must re-
member that it takes more than the
mere enactment Of Law TO make II
in any way beneficial 10 the farming
community. The weeds unless the
Law is made operative, and enforced,
will continue to grow just the same
in the fields Of the shiftlsss and Of
the indifferent farmers. But the Law
referred 10 is designed TO keep the
fields of the industrious and progress
siye farmer from being poisoned by
the adjoining weedy fields. Each
year the weed question tecomes more
difficult Of solution. If this Law is
right, It should be made operative at
the earliest possible date, and then
conscientiously enforced. It should
be given a fair, practical, and hon
est trial and the advantages and dis
advantages carefully noted Nor
should It be judged in a pessimistic
or partisan way.
In harvesting The grain crop. the
farmers Of the Inland Empire every
year pay for cutting. threshing,
sacking. and hauling to market
many thousands Of bushels Of weed
seed Then to cap the climax. these
same farmers are locked heavily on
their grain. and thus incur a double
loss.
During the last ten days I have
travelled many miles in Eastern

A W. Patterson, Of Lewiston IN
the Tribune Of last Friday made The

"The upper Snake river has had

qualification to Mr.. Williams, who
has worked on the Snake perhaps as
long as any mining man and whose

 = Washington, Dec. 22-Anybody who will read an article in the January number of the Metropolitan maga- trust magnate has gone to jail un- der the administration of the Attor- ney Generals office by George w.. Wickersham, formerly of New York.
 This article, which is written by one who calls himself an !nstder, gives a brief history of MT. Wicker sham's connections and associations before he became a member of the Taft cabinet; and from this account it is not hard to understand why his sympathies are not with those who stand to lose by trust extortions and monopolies.

Above the mists of unfamiliarity the country, those landmarks with which he was familiar stood up like church spires piercing morning fog.

Gunners Following a Fox, They Sud- denly Come Upon Buck, Which

Plainfield, Conn, Dec. 22-Some gun ners in the eastern part of the coun- ty yesterday had an experience that is novel, to say the least. Soon af- ter sunrise fox was started by a hound owned by MT. Pearce, Of Rhode Island. The trail was a warm one and easily followed until the cross trail of a deer was struck Two other hounds were on this trail.
 John G. Baker and MT. Pearce fol. lowed the new trail a short distance when they came upon one dead hound and another holding large buck at bay. The animal immediately trans ferred it's attention from dogs to men. MT Pearce dropped his gun and climbed tree, but MT Baker, who slipped and fell, received one bad stab from the bucks horns before he succeeded in getting out of harms s way.
 The buck held them prisoners sev- -eral hours, but finally gave up and bounded into the forest.

NEW LONDONER'S TRIBUTE
 TO OFFICER FALLON

A writer on the New London ~Tele- graph who edits column under the caption of ''Via Wireless has this to say concerning Officer John M. Fall lon:
 New Londoners who go to New York by rail may have noticed, as their trains have stood at the Bridge port depot, any time during the last half dozen years, an old police off cer on duty at the station, who wears, in addition to moustache, a small "goatee.'' The officer is John H. Fallon, who yesterday completed his 42d year of service on the Bridgeport police force, and who claims to be the oldest policeman in the state still doing active duty, being 72 years old.
 A courteous, kindly gentleman is Officer Fallon, in spite of his years still mentally alert and, considering them, far from decrepit. I don't be- lieve he has ever been guilty of a moments dereliction of duty in all his life. The next time you pass through Bridgeport, if it's in the daytime, watch out for a sight of a man who can do police duty in a town like that for AZ years and aI- ways be lon the level.''
