CHICAGO, II. Aug. 17-How did
feel when Tipped into the water and
found myself facing death?
Well, my first thought, when saw
no tugs in sight and the storm coming
on, was: "I'll bet won't get home to
dinner In time." Funny, isn't it when
one is facing death; but that was my
first thought.
/ first noticed that something was
wrong with my machine after / had
made the first turn on the second lap
My Queen monoplane had 100 horse
power engine, and tore through the
air at terrific speed. AS l went out
past the pylons into the lake air !
felt as though something were wrong,
but attributed it to the gusts of wind
About two miles out l pulled my con.
trolls. They didn'nt work was drift
ing off the course into the hazy mist
over the water. and then l concluded
my end had come.
l kept pulling the controls and try.
ing to come to earth. Then suddenly
something happened-I don't know
what it was. l felt the machine turn,
and then speed like an arrow for the
lake. 1 tried to turn it tail first, but
couldn't do it.
Then / saw the lake water. 1t seem.
ed to be coming up to me. l wasn't
afraid.
/ thought of tombstone and his be-
ing dragged down beneath the water.
In few seconds time l was falling.

Gertrude: To beautify the complex
ion and preserve its youthfulness. try
an almozoin cream-jelly. This is
splendid for the removal of black
heads and pore impurities, as well as
clearing the skin of tan, freckles,
blotches and fine lines. To prepare,
get an ounce of almoZoin from the
druggist and stir 1t into a half-pint
cold water, then add two teaspoonfuls
glycerine. Let stand several hours.
Using this cream-jelly quickly clears
the skin and gives to it velvety
smoothness and charming tint without
the least possible danger of growing
hair.
H. u: An unhealthy scalp causes
profuse dandruff and dull, stringy,
straggly hair. l would advise quin-
zoin tonic, which is inexpensive and
easy to prepare. Get an ounce of
quinzoin from your druggist and dis
solve in halfpint alcohol, then add a
half-pint water. Massaging the scalp
frequently with this stops itchiness,
removes dandruff or excess oil, and
puts the scalp in healthy condition.
It's continued use makes the hair soft
and glossy, restores the original col

Mrs. A.: I don't think the condition
of your eyes calls for glasses. The
ache and smart of which you speak
can be quickly stopped if you use an
eye-tonic. made by dissolving an ounce
of crystos in a pint of water and put
ting two or three drops in each eye
daily. This tonic is very beneficial, as
1t s0othes aching eye-muscles and re-
moves inflammation. Using it makes
weak eyes strong and gives to them
an unusual brilliancy and pleasing ex-
preston.
A. D.: Do not employ the electric
needle for the removal of those stray
hairs, as it is painful and costly op-
GRAFTON. Get an ounce of delatone
from the druggist and with water mix

surface and after two or three min

will find the hairs are gone. Della
tone costs a dollar an ounce and is
worth it, too.

WoMAN'S YELLOW PERIL,

Housewives wonder why the under.
wear, table linen. bedding and all 9TH
er washable fabrics wear out-fall to
pieces SO quickly. It's the strong,
yellow soap which eats through the
fibre and weakens it to the tearing
point. A pure, wholesome soap need
be no more costly than these destruc-
tive compounds. Hewitt's Easy Task
soap will prove this to be true.
1t is clean, white soap without the
impurities of the crude, strong, yellow
soaps, and will do the work with half
the labor. Five cents a cake. Try it..

Health and Beauty Advice
By Mrs. Mae Martyn

and fluffy by shampooing occasionally
with canthrox. Get an original pack
age of canthrox from your druggist
and dissolve a teaspoonful in cup
hot water. Massaging the scalp brisk
ly as you pour on little at time
creates rich, cleansing lather and
when the scalp and hair are rinsed
you will find both Immediately clean.
With a canthrox shampoo the hair
dries quickly without streaking, and
hair that is dull, brittle or unmanage-
able will become bright, soft and easy
to arrange.
Alma: Your skin will lose that shiny
unnatural look and take on a velvety
smoothness and pink and white tint if
you discard powder and rouge and
use the following lotion: Dissolve
four ounces spurmax in One-half pint
hot water and when cool add two tea
spoonfuls glycerine. Apply this to
the skin. rubbing gently Until dry.
This is superior to powder because it
is invisible when on, does not rub or
blow off. and aside from identifying
the skin and removing tan and freck-
les, gives a richness to the complex
ion not possible with powder. 1t is
especially nice to use IN hot weather
because perspiration will not spot it.
Mildred: Impure blood causes a sal
low, 1ifeless condition of the skin, robs
you of energy and gradually under
mines your health. Before it is too
late, get an ounce of kardene at the
drug store and dissolve in half-pint
alcohol. To this add one-half cupful
sugar and hot water to make a quart,
then take one tablespoonful before
meals. This tonic soon rids the blood
of impurities, then health and strength
quickly return. Nothing equals kar-
dene tonic as an energizer and sys-
tenn builder.
Miss NJ: 1t is not necessary to visit
sanitarium in order to reduce your
weight. Dissolve four ounces parnotis
in pint and a half hot water. Strain
when cold and take a tablespoonful
before meals. This is quite harmless;
and while it dissoives fatty tissues,
does not leave the skin wrihkled or
flabby, nor does it call for dieting.

Here is a recent instance where adj
vertising accomplished the apparently
impossible:
In the perfume business there has
existed an iron-bound tradition that
the POPULARITY of a PERFUME
is LIMITED TO FIVE YEARS; also
that perfume can be sold only at GER
TAIN SEASONS of the year.
Perfume manufacturers have, there
fore, been obliged to figure their dis
tribution and selling cost, as well as
their profits, all in this five-year span
of life. AS the limit approached, they
ceased pushing that perfume and de-
voted their energies to popularizing
another scent. Which meant doing
the costly preparatory work all over
again.

conditions. The article had closed the
