To Have Complexion
That Men Admire

"A man may admit, with great
sophistication, that powder and rouge
are necessary aids to beauty writes
the Countess of Wenick, yet deep in
his heart he dreams of the woman
whose lovliness needs no artificial
touching up. Women who appreciate
this, who give consideration to the
masculine viewpoint avoid using any
thing that might indicate their beauty
is not all their own.
such women in increasing number
are acquiring the mercolized wax hab-

Answers Some Statements Recently
Made About the Purposes Of the
Men and Religion Forward 4
Movement.
RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES
Wanted on the Part Of the Men and
Boys In the Local Churches
Movement Ends Last
Of April.

In view of the fact that the Men
and Religion Forward Movement has
been actively presented in this city
the following letter to the editor of
The Gate City by H. S. Butler, execl-
tive secretary for the Keokuk commit
tee of one hundred, is interesting:
To the Editor of The Gate City:
My attention has been called to
some statements concerning the finan-
cling of the Men and Religion Forward
Movement that seem almost too ridic-
ulous to notice on the part of those
who have studied the effort now being
made 1t is necessary to understand
first that the effort contemplates only
an increase in the activity Of men and
boys in the local churches. No great
union organization is planned. and the
present organization goes out of ex-
istence automatically the last of April
1t exists simply and solely for the
purpose of presenting and urging the
general activity of the men and boys
within each local church toward the
accomplishment of those things that
the church seeks to do.
The statement is made that j. P.
Morgan and other men interested in
the so-called great trusts are by some
magic using this organization to di-
rect attention away from the indus
trial situation, and that as means
they are heavily contributing to the
i expenses of the effort. The best an
( swer to this is that more men are
now studying the industrial situation
with view OF remedying its ills than
ever before, and that many of them
have been awakened to the necessity
of such study by this movement. Near
lily every, place the campaign of socia
service has commanded the widest at
tention.
j. p. Morgan has contributed to thu
movement. The circumstances unde'
; which he gave are these: Fred B
Smith. the campaign leader, who's
great work is we'll known here, me
Mr. Morgan on board steamer, and go

Morgan to contribute. and the latte
made what. for him was not an exces
sive contribution. Since that time, s.
far as is known by the chairman Q
the finance committee, he has not g,
. pressed any further interest in the Ell
terprise.

Madame X Tonight.

Expert critics in New York, Paris,
London and other world-cities where
Madame X' has been scoring so
great triumph, unite in the verdict
that it is the most powerful melo-
drama within memory. They have not
hesitated to say that this play by
Alexandra Bison holds in the hearts
of the present generation of play
goers place comparable to that held
in years gone by by such famous
work as Article Al" East Lynne, :"
Camille" or the wonderful Sardou
tetralogy,-"La Tosca,' "Gismonda,"
Fedora and CLEOPATRA"
Added to the tremendous emotional
| power of Madame X there is a real
! ism, fidelity to the actual things in
life, that sets it on even higher plane
! than any of these famous forebears
While beyond all this, Madame x
deals with that greatest of all human
feelings "NIothar-T4ove- 1t is sess
! that has made the drama SO potently
appealing to all races and all nation
! alities. In its authors native Paris
in London, in Berlin, in New York, the
! play has fairly swept the playgoins
public off its feet; while even the most
criticalminded persons have found
it's appeal absolutely irresistible.
