MAKES FACE LOOK
YEARS YOUNGER

In the beauty column of the Wash
ington Star we find the following writ
ten by that eminent authority, Mae
Martyr;
Women who have been doping their
faces with powder and vainly striving
to attain beautiful compilations, will get
the desired results by using instead OF
face powder, a good spurmax lotion.
Such lotion can be made at small cost,
by dissolving ounces of spurmax in
M-pint hot water, then add 2 teaspoon
fIlls glycerine Or to make the lotion
dry more quickly when applied to the
skin, n pint witch hazel can be used in
stead of water
This simple lotion is uneoualed for
refining ones complexion. It makes the
skin so soft, smooth and velvety and
takes away that shiny, oily, sallow
look. It does not show on the skin.
nor does II rub off easily like powder.
Those who use this lotion find II such
a splendid skin whitener and complex
ion beautifier that they are seldom
without it on their dressing table" -

An attempt is being made by the city
OF Omaha and the county OF Douglas TO

NATIONS CHIEF ENTERS IOWA
President Appears at Early Hour in
Council Bluffs.
WELCOMED BY LARGE CROWD
No Country Can he Great Unless a.
ia well Fed, He Declares, I'm
spealsine of Iowa as an
Agricultural state.

President Taft at Council Bluffs Thurs
day morning told the first Iowa audience
10 greet him or hts present tour the reason
for his being there. He failed to resist
successfully a plea to speak at the Kan
sas state fair at Topeka, he said, and
this was mis- undoing. Then II was in
sisted that he must break ground with a
golden spade for the Panama exposition
at san Francisco. and the die was cast.
The rest Of the trip Just grew.
That Mt Taft appreciated the regard
which led the large crowd which met
him with cheers at the Illinois Central
station TO arise with the sun was mani
tested when he told how sorry he was
that he had been late in making his ap-
pearance He did not deny that going to
bed late and getting up early was bad
even for president.
The presidents train arrived on the
Burlington at $50 O'Clock Thursday morn
ing and proceeded to the Union Pacific
transfer. where it was switched TO the
Illinois Central tracks. At $40 o'clock
the waiting crowd received it's first view
of the presidential train and followed il
eagerly as II was shunted back and
forth before coming TO a stop
People Mast BE Well Fed.
Mr.. Taft was introduced by Congress-
man W. r. Green of Council Bluffs. He
said:
This is not the first time have Wis
tied Council Bluffs, but 1t Is the first
opportunity have had 10 talk to an
iowa crowd on my present trip. Because
Iowa Is an agricultural state and because
regard the production of food for a nation
as OF foremost importance. 1 am espec-
tally glad to speak to you No country
can be great II 1t Is not we'll fed"
Statistics the president said. indicated
the prime Importance Of increasing both
acreage and productiveness per acre of
the nations farm lands.
Praise for General Grenvlile NJ. Dodge,
whom he said was a figure of national
influence, and for Water ]. Smith, Of
whom he said he took great congress-
man and made g great nudge OF him, was
received with warm applause by the
home folks"
Taft In Good Humor.
II was evident from his opening re-
marks that President Taft was in the
best Of humor and the crowd was soon
with him. He explained that he some
times had his doubts of senators and
congressman. Their strong point, he said
was their anxiety to convince him that
his presence in their states was absolutely
necessary to the public welfare, hut he
was inclined to think anxiety TO con-
tribute to the success of an occasional
state fair had much TO do with the mat,
ter.
Returning to serious vein. the president
said high tribute to Lincoln. The martyred
statesman, he said, was the great
example and the great source of com.
fort to all succeeding occupants of the
executive mansion. In. his hours OF
gloom, when he feels that his burdens arr
heavier than he can successfully uphold
Mr.. Taft turns to Lincoln and the rail,
splitter's trials appear so much greater
that his own seem Insignificant.

Amateur Baseball

Sporting Editor The Argus: The
members of the Wolstencroft Broth
ers baseball team wish TO announce
that a wrong impression has been
given-namely that the team repre-
sents the butchers. They are not
identified in any way with the butch
ers. They also deny the report
handed in to The Argus Monday I'm
which FritZ's Colts claimed 10 have
beaten the Wolstencroft Brothers
team Sunday by a score OF 8 to T.
In the eighth inning the score was
a tie and at that time a decision by
the umpire made in accordance with
the ground rules gave the winning
run to the Wolstencrofters, but the
Colts refused to abide by the deci-
sion and the game broke up in con-
fusion. There was a large crowd
present favoring the Colts and they
continually interfered with the visit
ing players We, the Wolstencroft
Brothers baseball team. challenge the
Colts for a game at any future date
and agree to play for any sized
purse they may see fit to put up.

NOTES OF THE GAME

Even if we didn't win we threw an
awful scare into the fans from the
other side.
Ohland did the heavy sticking for
Davenport and every time he hit 1t
brought in runs
Judge E. c. Graves Of the circuit
court occupied a box. From a judicial
slant he held that the Prods deserved
10 win.
O'Leary batted for Dick in the ninth
and poled a two-sack drive 70 the left
field fence. Clynes came within an
ace of robbing him of il.
rs all right with us, neighbors.
Then. too. il was some satisfaction 70
see the credit for the victory go TO our
former old reliable backstop, Danl
OLeary.
II was another illustration of the
fact that when the islanders are fight
ing the game is never decided until
the last man is disposed Of in The con-
Guiding inning.

superintendent, interviewed a. the II,

er makes Coach Harmon confident that
Maquoketa will have TO play mighty
fast baseball to keep Rock Island from
coming home with the long end of the
score.
The team kept up the gait it struck
about a week ago when it went up to
Athletic park, Moline, and defeated an
independent Moline high school aggre-
cation by a score of to 3. 1t was a
case of too much Empke, as the big
fellow kept them steadily coming over
the pan throughout the game, and let
them down with but four hits. the To-
GALS errors being chiefly responsible
for the Moline tallies. On the other
hand. Rock Island got to Pitcher Willis
in the opening round and scored five
runs, enough to win the game. Wits
Ter was the star with the stick for the
locals, getting three hits and stealing
five bases. Townsan and Brough each
got two hits, one of the latter's going
for two sacks. Tracy played a great
game in the field around second base
that helped in several tight places.
Clemann showed up well behind the
bat and as a result is likely to get
chance down at Maquoneta. The most
satisfactory feature, however. was the
fact that the team seems at last to
have found pitcher. as Empke has
been showing all kinds of smoke, with
good curves and control. The score by
innings:
r. l. Fl. S. .........5 0 1 90 OF 6
NJ. H. S. Ind. .....0 02O10-3 6
Batteries - Empke and Clemann;
