Every one who has lived in a small

IT Is CRIMINAL TO NEGLECT
THE SKIN AND HAIR

Think of the suffering entailed by
neglected skin troubles-mental be-
cause of designation, physical be-
cause of pain. Think of the pleasure
of a clear skin, soft, white hands, and
good hair. These blessings, SO essen
tial to happiness and even success in
life, are often only a matter of a little
thoughtful care in the selection Of
effective remedial agents. Cuticura
Soap and Ointment do SO much for
poor compilations, red, rough hands,
and dry, thin and falling hair, and cost
80 little, that it Is almost criminal not
to use them. Although Cuticura Soap
and Ointment are sold everywhere, a
postal to "Cuticura," Dept. 81 L, Bos.
ton, will secure a liberal sample Of
each, with 32-page booklet on skin
and scalp treatment.

The Greatest Steamship

The building Of the Europa" by
the Hamburg-American line is a
new record in steamship cOnstruc-
ton. It is easy to say that it has
a length Of 900 feet and beam Of
Sc. that it has nine decks, that it
carries a crew of 1000 people. and
has accommodations for 1850 pas
sengers. But it is only upon COM
parison that the figures begin to
possess their real meaning. The
three largest hotels in New York are
the Aston, the Plaza and the Wal
drof-Astoria. The Astor is 200 feet
high, the Plaza $40 and the Waldorf
Astoria 800, a total of $40 feet, or
60 feet less than the length of the
Europa. These three hotels to-
gether accommodate is 1926 people,
or 2015 less than of that the
Europa" The Europa" is float
ing skyscraper and has a beam of So
feet, as wide as Broadway, New
York, at its widest. The tonnage
of the vessel is $4,000, and actual
weight 70, 600 tons.

Buy a Farm in the Northwest

According to no less financial
authority than Frank A. Vanderbilt,
president of the National City Bank,
New York City, and formerly an
assistant secretary Of the treasury,
farm lands in the Pacific Northwest
offer the best investments. He says
every one should get hold of a piece
of land, for it will not be long until
a poor man will be unable to get
land. Mr.. Vanderlip was in Port
land quite recently and was en-
tertained by the Commercial Club.
He said the northwest is the most
prosperous section of the country
and it has the confidence of the
eastern financiers. He was impress
ed with the activity on the coast and
he believes the BUSINESS outlook
throughout the country is much inn
proved. He finds banks are sound,
crop prospects good and general
confidence is felt.
