Aunt Sally's Advice
to Beauty Seekers

X. C. F. asks: "Will you tell me how
to get my hands white and soft?
They have become rough and are SO
dark in contrast to my arms" The
method mentioned in reply to Eloise
will bring the desired results; wear
gloves to prevent soiling the bed linen.
d. N. A. writes: How can / reduce
a double chin? Also how get rid of
crows feet?" Use a wash lotion pre-
pared by dissolving 1 OF. powdered sax
olite in 1a pit. witch hazel This
tightens the skin, tending to dispense
wrinkles as we'll as flabbiness about
the chin and elsewhere.
Eloise says: my freckles are worse
than ever this year, made doubly con-
spicuous by a pallid complexion. Is
there any cure?" Ask your druggist
for an ounce of mercolized wax, apply
nightly like cold cream, removing in
the morning with warm water. AS the
wax gradually absorbs the lifeless
cuticle, not only will the freckles van

In the same spirit that inspired JefYer-
son to found a new party to meet the
needs of his time. Abraham Lincoln
was a Wing, more patriot than a
partisan. That is the test which
searches out the heart of every man
today. Do we think more of the ma
tons welfare or more of a party
name? Is the mere habit of voting
an inherited partisanship as important
as the duty of voting our present con-
victions?
During my public life in the Sen
ate, 1 fought for those things which
believed right and good for the
whole people This often required me
to do battle with powerful men and
interests within my own party, aided
by equally powerful men and the
same interests in the Democratic par
ty. This was because neither party
had a sincere legislative program. dis
tinct from the other party; and thus
evil interests, operating through the
boss system, of both parties, were able
to mutilate or defeat needed and
righteous laws and even to enact bad
and unjust laws.
Appeal for Unity.
I'm the spirit, then, of Jefferson and
Lincoln, let all Progressives stand to-
gether that Progressive policies may
be carried out in good faith: that the
present illogical and insincere party
alignment may be broken up; that
the hurtful boss system may be over
thrown, and that sectionalism may
be ended forever in this republic.

that all progressives of all parties

system. Ultimately, and soon, this
will force all reactionaries to act in

Another reason is even more
weighty. The nation is divided polit-
ically into two geographical sections.
This is wrong, illigical and dangerous
Yet, so long as the two old parties re-
main as they are now, this sectional
division will continue. The real prob
lens which the American people face
are national and economic. They con-
Germ the living of the people and a
more just distribution of our common
prosperity. They have to do with the

Yet, for well-known reasons, practical

can not be changed by the two old

partisan condition, but the nation does
not get, in it's fullness and freedom,

constructive minds of the South in

AUTO BANDITS HURL
BRICK INTO WINDOW;
OFF WITH DIAMONDS

CHICAGO, Nov 2S,-With five suspects
under arrest and another band OF five still
at large, together suspected of ten au-
tomobiIe robberies within a few hours,
new pair appeared early today and
robbed a jewelry store in West Garfield
boulevard.
The nonchalance with which the last
pair carried out their robbery amazed the
police The effrontery Of the bandits has
been taken as an insult to the department
and, aroused by the wrath Of indignant
citizens whose homes have been robbed
with impunity by the auto robbers, the
officials were taking steps today to hght
the bandits with their own chief weapon
an automobile.
The bandits leisurely drove UP to the
jewelry store in West Garfield boule-
ward one Of them stepped out, threw a
brick through the window, picked up a
trayful of diamond rings, resumed his
seat in the car which was started down
the fashlona BILE boulevard only after the
rear door Of the machine had been closed.
J. 4. Hesselbaum, the proprietor, ran
out of the store wringing his hands, but
the robbers were block away and beat
ing the speed limit. Police believe the
pair belong to the large gang that Sc

$4,000 SURPLUS
GIVEN CITY BY
TAX RAISE
lump of $245, 109 in Revenues
Exceeds Expectations of
Budget Makers.

Official figures Of the city comptrol-
Ter on Atlanta's increase in tax reve-
nue. today show surplus above the
amount appropriated for the year by
council Of S59.59S.47. The final reports
show the total in the city's taxes to be
the remarkable Increase of $245,109.
In making up the budget, the finance
committee anticipated an increase of
s1s1,2O3.96. This was considered by
many to be excessive.
The total revenue from realty and
personal taxes in 1911 was $1,68S,76S'
THE anticipated revenue for 1912 was
s1,sss, s71.s6. The actual receipts will
reach 3I.s2s,565.43.
Instead of being short in revenue, as
was predicted by some, there viii be a
golden nest egg in the city treasury at
the end of the year. unless council gets
bugv and spends it before January l.
Bio increase Due to EaualizinG.
The increase is principally due to the
agitation for an equalization Of tax as
sessments. The total increase In as
ssssments is s19.273,743. The assess
rnents in 1911 were $135,101,491. The
assessments for 1912 are $154,365,2S4
The realty assessments amount to
s107 1886. The personally assess
rnents amount TO $46,741,36S.
since the agitation for tax reforms
was begun two years ago, assessments
have been increased more than $780,
0o0, 900.
The increase in the personally and
realty taxes Of the public utility corpo-
rations is $11,597.S2. In 1911 this tax
amounted TO $180,295.S6. In 1912 it is
s1s1.Ss3.6s.
Taxable Values Tripled In 10 Years.
Atlanta's taxable values have tripled
in ten years. In 1902 the total assess
ments we're only S57369,6l2.
It is surprising that the street tax
shows a decrease. Every voter, except
those exempt by old age or military
service, must pay street tax. In 1911
the total was $15,655. In 1912 1t is $15,-
GOT. The sanitary tax, $1OSS9Of9, is an
increase of $4,360.50.
When the finance committee of coun-
ell meets in January to make UP the
new budget It will take the figures Of
this year as a basis The committee
will estimate an Increase in the revenue
for 1918 equal to the increase Of 1919
over 1911.
The real Importance OF the tax fig
ures is that the finance committee will
estimate that 1t has approximately
$3.50, 600 more money to spend in 1918
than it was able to appropriate in 1912.
All the city officials agree that the
tax assessments are still very low, es-
pecially on central property.
