Miladys Toilet Table
BY Nine. D'MILLE.

There are simple home treatments
that keep the hair and complexion
young looking. Dry shampooing
cleans the scalp and hair, and makes
the hair grow. Just put a cupful OF
cornmeal in fruit Jar and mix with
it an original package of therox:
sprinkle little on the head and
brush out. 1t brushes out easily and
leaves the hair clean, bright, wavy
and rich in color.
To keep the face youthful and fair,
make a simple lotion by dissolving
an original package of mayatone in
a half pint of witch hazel and rub
over the face, neck and arms every
morning. Your complexion will soon
be smooth, clear, satin-like and free
from blemishes.
Wild hairs or fuzzy growths can
be made to vanish quickly by apply
ing delatone paste. Mix enough pow
dered delatone with water to cover
the hairy surface; apply and after
two or three minutes rub off, wash
the skin and the hairs will be gone
Chaps, cold sores, pimples, eczema
and skin eruptions disappear, II you
rub Mothers Salve into the affected
surfaces before retiring. 1t quickly
heals sores, cuts, burns. scalds, etc.
1t is antiseptic as well as healing

What do think Of the new

their long leaves over them.

SHOULD GET LARGER CROPS
American Farmers Might Largely In
crease Their Production Through
Scientific Methods.

Our Pennsylvania Dutch are good
farmers, but not so good as their rela-
tives in Germany For every bushel OF
wheat Pennsylvania farmer produces
from one acre the German grows two
and tenth bushels.
His farm is small, Jut the man who
delves beyond the Rhine makes each
acre produce exactly twice as many
potatoes as do our farmers.
The man who bows to a kaiser in
stead of president extracts Just a
half more oats and over third more
barley and about GO per cent more rye
from each acre than does the improvi-
dent American.
The man who has but dollar can
live for long time on it, whereas the
prodigal can waste $40 bill on one
dinner. The German has SO little
ground that he makes 1t work doubly
hard
When the United States has 200,.
100000 population our farm production
an acre will likely have doubled from
sheer necessity.-Public Ledger.
