FreCkIe.FaCe
New Remedy That Removes Freckles
or Costs Nothing.

Here's a chance, Miss Freckle
Face, to try a new remedy for
frerkles with the guarantee OF a
reliable dealer that 1t will not cost
you a penny unless It removes the
freckles, while If it does give you
clear complexion, the expense is
trifiing.
Simply get an ounce OF othine-
double strength from your druggist
and one nights treatment will show
you how easy it is to rid yourself
forever of the homely freckles and
get a beautiful complexion. Rarely
is more than one ounce needed for
the worst case.
Be sure to ask your druggist for
the double strength othine as this is
the only prescription sold under
guarantee of money back If 1t fails
to remove freckles-

got his eyes full and Mr.. Peecher

soaked. They managed by var

and still remain sober to play q
game of croquet resulting In q
victory OF the best three out OF

Fake Magazine Agents Victimize
St. LouiSanS

The attention of the public is
again called to the numerous agents
working through the country solicit
ing subscription orders for maya
zines and collecting money in ad-
vance. A number of local people
have been victimized and the rem
edy lies wholly in the hands of the
public by placing their orders with
their nearest newsdealer who will
make delivery to the home or office
on the date the magazines are pub
lished.
There are a great many advan-
tages in doing this, one of which is,
instead of the subscriber paying for
year in advance to strangers he
may pay newsdealers weekly OF
monthly on his regular newspaper
account.
Then again, the local newSdealel
pays taxes, rent and for light anc
heat. In these days of publicity
the watch-word seems to be Boon
the West" and here is where thu
general public have an opportunit!
of doing so by patronizing the hom'
merchant instead of paying none!
to irresponsible strangers.
Then again the order may b.
changed with the newsdealer a
often as desired, whereas by sub
scription one must continue tn
same publication for the entir
year. Louis Times.

He politely handed his fair neigh
Dor Bible, open, with pin stuck
in the following text: Second epis-
tie of John, 5th verse-"And now |
beseach thee, lady, not as though l
wrote a new commandment unto
thee but that which we had from
the beginning, that we love one an
other" She returned it pointing to
the second chapter of Ruth, 10th
verse; Then she fell on her face
and bowed herself to the ground
and said unto him. why have l
found grace in thine eyes, that thou
shouldest take knowledge of me
seeing that l am a stranger" He re-
turned the book pointing to the
thirteenth verse of the third epistle
of John-"Having many things to
write to you upon, l would not
write with paper and ink, but
trust to come unto you and speak
face to face that our Joy may b
full. From the above interview {
marriage took place the ensuing

consumption by means of an ex-

loaned by the Frisco R. R. and car
ried free over the lines of the Frisco
and Katy Rail Roads in Missouri
also over a part of the Missouri
Pacific and Cotton Belt Rail Roads.
Over sixty towns were visited and
