COMPLEXION LOTION
MAKES ROSY CHEEKS

In writing for the Philadelphia, Press,
Mae Martyr. the famous writer on health
and beauty topics says ANY woman who
desires rosy cheeks does the worst thing
imaginable by trying to color them with
powder or rouge. Everyone notices that
painted look and II is only a question Of
time when her face win be rough, sailow-
looking and beset with large, dirt collecting
pores ...
Am inexpensive lotion made by dissolving
four ounces OF spurmax in nne-half pint
hot water with two teaspoonfuls glycsTine
added, Is far better than powder OF any
other complexion beautifier This lotion
does not show like powder and gives the
skin q clear clean. wholesome look that
lasts much longer than when powder lie
used. II removes the shiny oily, sailow
look and leaves the skin smooth, rosy and
fresh looking."-Adv.

GUYE URGES FIRE ESCAPES
Says Owners of Buildings Must Com
ply with Orders.
QUESTION on INTERPRETATION
Labor CommIssioner Insists that All
HiEh Buildinss Must he
Equipped ms Reaeired
ny Law.

Though he has issued forty orders to
owners throughout the city to equip their
buildings With outside fire esca9es, Louis
V. Guye deputy state labor commissioner.
declares that the owners are slow about
complying with the ultimatums.
Unless they get busy at once. l will
bring court proceedings to force them to
put up the fire escapes" says Guye.
Many question the rights Of my depart
ment TO issue such orders. In many
cases they contend that the buildings are
not three story structures and for that
reason have not erected fire escapes.
Others contend that fire-proof buildings
do not have TO be equipped with fire es-
capes. and that is where we differ.
II have asked the attorney general Of
the state for an opinion on what con
stitutes a three-story building within the
meaning OF the law. Oftentimes a building
Is three stories In height In the rear and
two in front. In my opinion. these would
be ciasssdi as three story buildings. have
put this Interpretation on the statutes and
shall stick to It until the attorney general
informs me otherwise. l will also urge
owners OF so-called fire-proof buildings to
get in line, unless the attorney general tells
me differently.
MY orders SO far have been directed TO
owners of flats and tenants in the main.
\ The public buildings, the CITY hall and the
| high school have been included. The
| Board OF Education will comply with the
/ order, hut the council Is taking its time
about putting a fire escape on the city
hall"
Just where the fire escape viii be placed
! on the city hall is worrying counciimen.
Guye contends that the escapes should be
so placed as to afford an open entrance.
| As the city hall is built around a court
| with mo Railways running 10 the outer
walls, Guye suggests that room on each
floor can be vacated to give an exit tC
the escape.
, MY attention has been directed to hotels
IN the city which have fire escapes that
can be reached only through some room
that is often locked" continued Guye
| Though hotels do not come under my
supervision, my opinion is that these rooms
should be open at all times and in nc
event used for lodging purposes. There
must be an open exit TO all fire escapes
II the door is locked the purpose of thC
escape 10 lost.
| Hotels will be under the direction of an
Inspector. who Is TO be appointed soon
The last legislature passed a law puttinl
the regulation of hotels under a new in
spector and until he Is appointed and as

Birthday Party

The members of little Robert
Milliken's Sunday school class,
with other friends, were made glad
by receiving invitations to his
birthday party.
On Friday afternoon Mr.. Mill
ken. with Jack and Pete hitched to
a hay wagon, drove up to the door
of the Baptist church where the
children had assembled. The drive
out can be imagined, but the de-
light and wonder of the children at
the unusual sights and sounds of
the farm had to be seen to be ap-
preciated.
Nothing that could add to the
good time had been forgotten and
when luncheon hour arrived the
climax was reached. Dainty sand
witches and delicious ice cream and
cake disappeared like magic. but
there is limit to be reached even
here which all were at length forced
to admit though some did it with
reluctance.
At seven o'clock Jack and Pete
were again brought into service
and the little folks started for their
homes after three rousing cheers
for Robert and the good time he
had given them.

WHY DO MOST WOMEN WORRY
They Lose Their Sense Of Values In
Looking After Detaiis Of
Work.

Women worry over little things.
This is one reason why there are
more cases Of insanity among wom-
en- than among men. Somehow wom-
en- lose their sense of values Per-
haps puttering around stove and
searching in tiny corners for dust
blunts their remembrance of the
bigness of the universe. Some even
ing, after hard day, when the
clothes wouldn't sprinkle right, and
the cake fell, and you tore the ruffle
on your newest gown, and you no
ticed a half-dozen gray hairs in
your head and a fly that you
couldn't catch, no matter how hard
you might try, buzzed about your
ears till you were frantic-some
evening, after some hard day, when
all these monumental horrors crowd
thick and fast upon you, go out in
the street and look up. You will sec
in the sky those shiny things called
stars. Let your mind saunter among
them for bit, down the spangled
Milky Way, into the brilliant Dip
per, across to glittering Orion.
Ponder for a minute on the giddy
vastness of that speck Of the uni
verse which we see on the rolling,
rushing universes beyond our vision,
on the orderliness Of that march Of
suns and moons and worlds so swift
and so serene, on the unthinkable
distances that separate us from the
stars and the stars from each other,
on the unutterable majesty of the
power which holds all this in it's
grasp.
Then 60 back to the house and
worry about your fallen cake if you
dare.
Only, in your zeal to avoid wor-
rying, don't begin to worry for fear
you'll begin to worry.

THE RELATION OF WIT AND STATES.
MANSHlP.
Craftsmanship is a serious bust
ness and it is very easy for men
occupying high rank in the affairs
of government to make serious
mistake in treating big questions
in a trivial, careless or humorous
manner. Such a blunder was
made by Champ Clark a few
months ago and we are now able
to see the full force of his error.
1t was made in debate on the Can
adam reciprocity measure shortly
after the pact had been submitted
to congress for its consideration.
Mr.. Clark knew that in a few
weeks he would be made speaker
and was therefore probably anxious
TO take advantage of the opportu-
nifty to engage in one more pas
sage-at-arms with the common
enemy. the republicans. He spoke
that day at his very best and had
the house roaring with laughter a
number of times. He twitted the
republicans about their inconsist-
ancy by calling attention to their
recent productive Payne-Aldrich
tariff bill and the proposed meas
are then under discussion. He
asked them in a joking way if they
intended to annex Canada. What
he said was probably all right if it
had gone no farther than the house.
But instead he spoke to a world
wide audience. England and the
opponents to reciprocity in Cana
da took what he said seriously.
The next day he said he was only
joking and Premier Laurier tried
to treat the matter in Jest but the
mischief had been done. Many of
the people in England and Canada
could not be persuaded but what
there was something behind this
question put by the man who
would in a few weeks be speaker of
the house and a prominent candi-
date for president.
The full force of this error is now
apparent in view of the fact that
Premier Laurier has been unable
TO put through the reciprocity
measure although free trade
between Can.dl and the
United States has been the policy
of both parties across the border
for the last fifty years, and the
eleventh parliment of the Domin-
Jon of Canada has been dissolved,
and general election called for
September FL, with reciprocity as
practically the sole issue. Already
the annexation cry has been raised
by the conservatives in all parts of
the country and this particular ar
gument is due, we believe, in no
small measure, to the fact that
Speaker Clark forgot, on the
occasion above referred to, to give
proper consideration to the relation
of wit and craftsmanship.
