Crooked Race Track at Alan, Idaho,
Running at Full Blast for 60 Days
A Skin Tightener
To Reduce Wrinkles

In beauty culture, as in the
treatment of disease, the tendency
nowadays is to seek the removal of
causes, rather than to treat symp-
toms or effects. In the matter of
wrinkles, for instance, we know
that the lines or burrows are
caused by the skin becoming loose
in places, SO 1t does not perfectly
fit the flesh beneath. The skin
then wrinkles" or says. Natural
ly the proper thing to do is to
tighten the skin-make 1t fit
then there's no room for lines,
wrinkles and folds, and so surplus
skin to sag or bag.
The best known formula for the
purpose is: Saxolite, 1 o., in Ia
pint witch hazel. Use as a wash
lotion. Tie effect is truly remark
able, especially as results are i'm
mediate. Ask the druggist for the
powdered saxolite, which dissolves
more quickly than any other form.

The crooked horse racing game
is not dead yet in the state.
For two months this fall a
crooked race meeting is being
held at a 100000 racing park at
Alan, a town of 100 inhabitants
in Idaho, just few minutes ride
over the border from Spokane.
The railroads out of Spokane
have granted special excursion"
rate of % cents for the round trip;
this is for the convenience of the
victims of the game.
Scores of touts are flourishing
in Spokane, and in spite of the
efforts of the Spokane police to
suppress it, the infamous yellow
Sheet" that is printed daily with
tips" on the Alan races finds
ready circulation.
Nowhere in the country does
the bookmaker ply his crooked
game now but in Montana, where
short meetings are held every
summer in Butte and Anaconda,
and on this infamous track at
Alan, Idaho.
All of the business" for the
bookmakers at Alan comes from
this state, it is freely admitted.
The "big" bookmakers from Oak
land and from Tampa, and even
from the Eastern tracks Call of
which have been legislated out of
existence), have flocked to Alan to
put up the last stand for racetrack
gambling-and crooked gambling
at that.
The Spokane police have arrest
ed several tipsters and a crusade
has been waged against known
crooks who have been ruled off
the race tracks in British Column
bia, and who made a Decline for
Alan, hoping to cut into the big
melon that gambling-craZed young
men of Spokane and the smaller
towns of the Inland Empire" are
daily contributing. The bcokmak-
ers are getting away with $4,000
a day at the Alan track, it is esti-
mated.
And all of this business"
comes over from Washington on
the "25-cent-round-trip" excur-
sion" that the railroads so kindly
make possible.

MRS. RALPH JOHNSTON Il AND HER INSTRUCTOR.

l keep up flying long enough.
But We all have to make our
livings. 1 have to. Not only that
but l have the dearest, sweetest
little fellow, just 10 years old,
and it Is for his sake more than
anything else that 1 have decided
to follow the track of his father.
Maybe l could support him 9TH
erwise. I do not know. His
father left us very little money
and Ralph, jr., must be clothed,
and fed and educated. l couldn't
do that at any of the professions
usually followed by women. I
doubt that l could do it were
to return to the stage, which I
left when 1 married.
Ralph always told me that fly
ing was the most dangerous busi-
ness a mortal could get into.
With but one exception he refused
to allow me to go up with him.
And he never would consent to
our little boys going. l wouldn't
either.
Down in my heart l often ques-

ton whether I did right in adopt
ing this flying business. That is
not caused by fear. but I wonder
what my little boy will do when I
meet the inevitable end Of all avi-
ators who cling to the game.
Only the other day the little
fellow looked up in my face and
said Mamma, what would become
of me if you should get killed
like papa?" I told him that God
would take care of me, and that
He would watch over me all the
more II my little boy would say a
prayer for me every time fly.
Bless his little heart, 1 know
he prays all the time I am aloft
that l may safely return to him.
Some time, and soon, both of
us hope, l will have saved enough
money to retire from the danger

gold in the world would tempt me
to continue taking chances of
making my boy an orphan.
1t is enough that aviation claim

SHORT SHAVINGS

There is an argumentative man
in this town. You can get a de-
bate out of him on anything. You
can even get a debate out of him
when that is the very thing you are
trying to dodge. Oh, he is the dis
putative person.
But there Is an instance in
which he made an argument in
two words and in saying these two
words completely refuted his ar
gument. Pretty hard to do, Ell?
Well, here's how he did it.
After a long argument with a
friend, the latter said: You al
ways take exception to everything
one says to you"
prove it," snapped our hero.
Two school stories, and that
will be about all the educational
persiflage today.
The teacher was quizzing the
second grade. The class acted as
if half asleep and pupil after pu-
pill tripped upon easy ones. So
the teacher tried to make them
still easier just to see il there was
anything the. class knew.
"On what day does Easter
fall?" she asked one girl sud
denly.
The girl, startled out of a day
dream, looked at her foolishly.
"Psst-Friday," whispered a
classmate.
Easter falls on Friday" con-
fidently announced the pupil.
That woke the class up.
This is about girl who didn't
make a mistake in her answer.
The question was, (which is
the largest river in South Amer
ica?"
Now this girl didn't remember
which was the largest river in
South America. But she did re-
member that one of the girls in
the room wore a sailor hat that
had the name of the largest river
in South America printed on the
band in large bold letters. The
teacher thought the girl would
never answer, but while she hest
tated her eyes roved along the
rows of hats hanging on pegs at
the side of the room until it rest
ed on the hat. Then in clarion
tones she answered.:
Amazon"
Not knowing the facts in the
case, the teacher thinks this was
a triumph of concentration of the
mind.

OVER THE CRADLE.

A little lad is sleeing
In a little trundle bed.
While fairies troop about him
With dreams for his curly
head;
The little face is tear-stained,
But under his glad eyes
Are visions of a pathway
That wanders up the skies.
His feet among the roses
Go dancing in wild glee,
He runs among the clover
All bright and glad and free;
The stars are for his pillow
In golden glory spread
The winds are singing to him
The little curly-head.
A woman bends above him
And breathes a fragrant prayer
That leaves holy beauty.
Spread like a halo there.
