Renewing Complexions
By Absorption

If your complexion Is marred with
blotches, it's useless to putter with
powders and paints, lotions, creams
and things. in an effort to get rid of
the trouble. Unless you have some
ability as an artist you'll mar your
appearance still more.
The new and rational way is to
take off the complexion itself, with all
its offensive marks. Just get an ounce
of pure mercolized wax at the drug
gist's and use at night same as cold
cream. Remove next morning with
water and soap. following with dash
of cold water The mercolized wax
absorbs the half-dead scarf skin in
flaky particles, SO gradually no one
guesses you're treating your face
unless 1t be by the result, which is
truly wonderful. There's nothing like
it for restoring natural, healthy and
beautiful complexion. Aunt Sally.

The Iowa Publishing company,
which has mapped many roads In Iowa
during the past few years has gone
into the present good roads project in
real earnest as a big thing. One OF
the men who has put his money into
1t is F. NJ Hubbell, OF Des Moines,
known as the richest man in Iowa.
Mr.. Johnston would make no state
ment as to the cost Of bringing the
road through Keokuk but 1t goes with
out saying that Keokuk will have to
lend financial assistance in way, how
ever, that 1t is believed would bring
in returns. After mapping out the
roads very accurately. the publishing
company will issue large book, CIV
ing the route in detail, a map of each
city along it and much information
for the tourists. Advertising for the
book will be asked of each city which
will be in the form of illustrations
and write-ups of commercial nature.
The departn ent of agriculture of
Iowa, in its annual report, stated that
the land values along the river to

Bluffs had increased in values from
SO to $40, this being one of the argrl-
ments placed before the farmer in sup
port of the good roads movement.

Keokuk Is today being presented
with an opportunity of having the
ocean to ocean highway-the greatest
good roads movement that has yet
been undertaken on the western con-
tinent-run through the city. A con-
ference has already been had with
representatives of the Mississippi Riv-

highway are E. S. Johnston and G. G..

pany Of Des Moines.
According to e. s. Johnston, Keo-
kuk is being pitted against Fort Mad
ison, which Is seking to have the
Blue Grass road made a part Of the
highway, thus bringing it through
Fort Madison. On the other hand
the Iowa Publishing company feels
that the s25,O00,OO0 water power pro-
ject is an added advertising feature
and would favor making the Waubon-
sic trail from Nebraska City to Keo-

road which will stretch itself across
the United States from New York to
Los Angeles and San Francisco. The
highway has already been mapped
from Los Angeles to Omaha in the
west and from indianapolis to Pitts

east The company into whose hands
the work has been placed by the
American Automobile Association is
now working on the stretch from Oma-

According to Mr.. Johnston the
feasible route through Iowa is the
Waubonsie trail, for 1t is more than
sixty miles shorter than any other.
This trail, as is we'll known, extends
from Nebraska City to Keokuk, and
if adopted will be extended on to In
dianapolis, the name being retained
over the entire distance.
