WOODmEN MAKEA
REPLY To KICKERS
Statement Is Directed to the
Members of the Illinois
State Senate.
ASK DEFEAT OF MEASURE
Communication Shows That Demands
of the Directors to Rates Are
Preposterous.

The Modern Woodmen, through ].
F. Egan, secretary to Head Clerk C.
w. Halves, have issued a lengthy
statement directed to the members
of the Illinois state senate in which
the position of the society regarding
the proposed Donahue bill is set
forth. This bill, as has been explain
ed before, seeks to prevetn the raise
in rates which became effective the
first of this month on the grounds
that the majority of the membership
is against it and that a referendum
vote is demanded on the subject.
POSITIVELY DENIED.
This claim on the part of the in
surgents is positively denied in the
communication to the senate and
facts are set forth in showing why.
1t is admitted that there are some
1900 DIRECTORS to the rate change,
but it is pointed out that this num-
Der is a mere one per cent, in other
words, one in hundred of the total
membership. These one in a hun
dred are the ones that are agitating
the question and seeking to tie up
the society at present
COST OF REFERENDUM.
Regarding the demand in the Dom
ahue bill that a referendum system
Of government be adopted, the state
ment shows how utterly impossible
the demand is. Every question sub
mitted to the membership would cost
the society from 100000 to $780, 900
for mailing alone and it can easily
he seen how long a society could ex-
list under such a burden. In addi-
ton it is shown that the member
ship has on several occasions refused
to make use of the referendum.
ASK DEFEAT OF BILL.
Because of this fact and others
which are given galore, the members
of the Illinois senate are asked to de-
feat the bill which has already passed
the lower house.

AMOUNTS STILL MEAGER-

AS can be seen from the foregoing,
the aggregate appropriation for the
coming year is s98,729. OF that
amount S24, 500 is appropriated for use
in the police department fund, or $500
more than was given TO that fund last
year. The department was run short
handed for most Of the time because
Of the lack Of funds The department
will continue 70 run shorthanded for
the time being because of the neces-
sity for economy. The fire depart
ment fund is an increase of $500 over
the amount Of last year, but still 1t is
insufficient TO allow for the improve
ments which have come TO be a neces-
sity, as, for example, bluff fire house
and better equipment in the fire sta
ton. II was necessary to set aside
$500 for fire hose.
The health department fund has in
it an increase of $1,000 over last
years appropriation, while the street
department fund is raised $4,000. Dur
ing the last year the street fund was
depleted long before the end of the
year and it was necessary to fall back
on the contingent fund in order to
carry on the urgent needs of the de-
partment
DISTRIBUTION OF FUNDS.
The distribution of funds from the
anticipated revenue of the coming
year is practically the same distribu-
ton as was made during the last year.
The fire alarm system is cut from
$4,000, while the salary fund is cut
$1,000. The election fund is cut in
half for this year and the light fund
is the same The amount for the con-
tingent fund is the same, as is the
sewer fund. Interest on the Lindberg
bill raises it a slight amount The
printing fund is cut 5000. The fund
of $4,000 for last year was not ex-
hausted. For the east end hose house
the sum of $500 is to be devoted.
There is a slight raise in the water
department fund.

How a Woman May
Retain Her Youth

THE woman who wants to look
young must taboo massage creams and
liquid rouge. She will only harden
the structure of her face and destroy
the fine texture of the skim said Mrs
Margaret Holmes Bates. the we'll
known author, to a Chicago Journal
representative.
Reputable physicians have de-
clared that If she INDUCES in artificial
methods she risks losing her health, -
she continued. perfectly natural
method of treating a bad complexion
is by using ordinary mereolized wax;
this adds nothing to the complexion,
but removes it instead. This wax, OBJ
tainable at any drug store, flakes off
the sallow or blotchy outer skin in
fine particles, gently, without harming
the skin beneath, which gradually
makes its appearance The brilliantly
beautiful complexion thus obtained is
a new one-quite different from
patched-up old complexion This is
one way to retain youthful looks. An
ounce of mercoIfzed wax is sufficient
It is applied at night like cold cream
and washed off in the morning
