How Old Is
 Your Complexion?
(From London Graphic)

T have just returned from Paris where I have been hunting up all the new fashions, and I have many val uable ideas.
 q obtained an interview with Mad ame De Veaux, Paris most renowned beauty. Although a woman of fifty years, she could easily pass for thirty. The skin on her face, neck and arms is clear, soft and velvety, and entirely free from wrinkles and stray hairs.
 "She has never used powder or paint. but makes a solution by dissolving an original package of mayatone in eight ounces of witchhazel, and messages her face, arms and neck twice a day with it. This does not show upon the skin; removes all sorts of blemishes, and prevents the growth of hair
 "The use of powder will not be found necessary at all, as the solution re- moves any shine from the skin at once, and gives the face a dainty, natural color. The stray hairs will disappear If the treatment is continued

WRAY LANGU|SHES
 IN COUNTY JAIL. Must Stay There Five Days By Order of Judge
 Sharpe

Five days in jail and a fine of $50 was the sentence imposed by Judge H. A.. Sharpe on Richard Wray, alias Dick" Wray, who was found guilty yesterday afternoon of a charge of having violated the prohibition injunctions issued against him last November.
 The sentence was given to the full ex- tent of the law and soon after imposed the prisoner was incarcerated in the county jail 10 serve his term of five days. The case against Moody Wray, on a similar charge, will be taken up be- fore the court this morning at 9:3o o'clock. Likewise cases against about F other parties who were commanded through the rules nisi to answer to the court as for contempt in having made the alleged violations of the prohibition ln1unctions, will be taken up before Judge Sharpe in succession.
 A suspension of the sentence imposed on Wray was asked for by Attorney White Gibson for the defense as soon as the court made it. but Judge Sharpe refused to accede to the request. The suspension was asked for on the grounds that a peti- tlon would be made to the supreme court for a review of the case.
 The decision of the court was announced immediately upon the conclusion of the argument for the state and for the de fense. Judge Sharpe gave out his opin- ion that, while in each instance the sale of liquors might constitute a case oi contempt, he had imposed a punishment for the general violation of the prohi bition injunctions in maintaining liquor nuisance.

But 1 found at last it was do. me harm For years had b troubled with dizziness. spots befo my eyes and pain in my heart to which was added. two years later. a chronic sour stomach.
 "The baby was born months ago, and almost from the beginning. it, too. suffered from sour stomach. She was taking it from me,
 Tn my distress l consulted a friend of more experience and she told me to quit coffee. that coffee did Ssot make good milk. I have since ascertained that it really dries up the milk
 So. l quit coffee and tried tea and at last cocoa. But they did not agree with me. Then l turned to Postum with the happest results. It proved to be the very thing l needed. It not only agreed perfectly with baby and myself, but it increased the flow of my milk.
 My husband then quit coffee and used Postum and quickly got we'll of the dyspepsia with which he had been troubled. I no longer suffer from the dizziness blind spells, pain in my heart or sour stomach.
 Now we all drink Postum from my husband to my seven months old baby. It has proved to be the best hot drink we have ever had. We would not give up Postum for the best coffee We ever ldrank" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.

poyed in the state coal mines last year according to the same figures secured by Mir. Hillhouse.
 The announcement was made yesterday by MT. Hillhouse that the figures were from all the greater mines in the state, to send in their totals and were conse- quently left out. He said lack of time forced him to close the figures, and even the above satisfying statistics may be greater by small margin.
 q am very much pleased with the figures showing such fine total amount of coal mined, said Mir Hilhouse. Ala bama is fast taking it's proper place with the great coal producing states and while we have a great journey before us yet to reach the totals of some other states, at the same time we are climbing at greater speed than other states.
 'The gross output of our mines has been better in 1910 than ever before in the history of this state. We have more mines running, more men working, and a greater amount Of sales than ever be- fore. On account Of the fact that this great pace setting increase came under my administration as chief inspector I am very much elated with the situation
 The official figures of MT. Hillhouse will be placed in booklet form within few days and forwarded to Governor O'Neal. The report of the nine inspector will in clude the number f deaths in the mines, nature of accide S, fires, and every in- cldent in the mifs ng of coal. The report will also carry, it is anticipated. some very interesting comments upon the min ing situation in the Alabama district.

T TITLE George Wiley, who meets
Ray Duer, the Dig California
rider. tomorrow in a motor-paced
match race al the V~elodrome, is of
the most interesting characters on the
track In a few years Wiley has risen
from a messenger boy earning a few
dollars a week to a position of az
fluence In Syracuse, his native city.
Endowed with a sturdy pair of legs
and a good head Wiley has made the
most of his opportunities on the bike
track and OH, too. With his head he
has doubled every dollar that his legs
have won by dealing in Syracuse real
estate. The first 81, 900 that Wiley won
went as an initial payment on a farm
for his mother. When the farm was
paid for he had an opportunity to sell
at a handsome profit on the investmt mt.
so he sold the farm and bought a town
house. Before he had time to move
into the town house he was offered So u
more for it than 1t cost him a few
days before, SO he sold 1t and bought
another. This started Wiley in the
real estate business. and all of his
deals have been as successful as his
initial ventures.
While many riders have won more
on the track than Wiley there is prob
ably no rider in the game wto has
more none today, except Frank
Kramer. Wiley, like Kramer. is a clean
liver and mas no bad habits. He likes
the racing game, and while he has
made it a strictly business proposition,
racing Is also his greatest enjoyment.
Wiley is still pretty much of a kid in
many ways. His first thought is al
ways of his mother. He writes her
every day, and II a day passes and
there is no letter received from his
mother Wiley becomes fretful and wor-
ried and will go back 50 per cent. in
his riding.
Last season he was training at Clinton
and Charley Turville was pacing him
He was riding in grand form when
suddenly he started to drop off in his
riding day BY day. He was living at
a hotel near the track and Turville
