Look at section of skin under the microscope and you will readily under stand why cosmetics generally injure the complexion,Y says Dr. H. Robert Mackenzie "The skin, smooth as 1t looks to the naked eye. under the glass exhibits lacework of tiny holes. mouths of myriads of little glands. To keep, the skin healthy these holes must be unobstructed, that the precipitation and natural oil can have free outlet. Should the glands be blocked up with irritating, gritty particles. common re- suit of using powders and creams. Ma ture retaliates by causing Tallowness roughness, blotches or pimples.
 sAs substitute for all cosmetics recommend ordinary mercolized wax. It not only does what the various face preparations are supposed to accom- piish. but it's peculiar absorbent action frees the pores from the daily accu- mutation of impurities, also absorbing the devitalized particles of surface skin. This produces natural, healthy. youth ful complexion. One ounce of this was, to be had at any drug store. usually suffices to rejuvenate the poorest com pIexion.

TIGERS SSHOW GREAT

 FROM DARTMOUTH

 Opposing Team

Princeton, N. J.. October 26.-Princeton surprised the most optimistic of her fol- lowers here today by defeating the Dart aouth eleven 9 to I. It was the first real test of the season of the Tigers.
 Princeton's victory was purely a result of outfighting her oponents. Dartmouth asumed the attack and carried the ball well into Princeton's territory on a se- Ties of line plunges and variety of trick plays, which completely baffled the Princeton players. As the game pro- gressed however, the home eleven seemed to get stronger and. showing remarkable speed both in offense and defense, aeld the visitors well in check in the second half.
 Dartmouth rushed the ball almost as much as Princeton but the Tigers always strengthened when their goal line was ,n danger and several times recovered fun bles by Dartmouth, which always man. aged to come at the most inopportune time for the Hanoverians.
 Hobby" Bakers work was without question the feature of the fray. With Princeton one point behind in the sec ond period. Baker gave them the lead by kicking a goal from placement from the 30 yard line and in addition made the most sensational run seen here this year. Gathering In the ball on Princeton's 15 yard line he lodged his way through the entire green eleven, and ran S5 yards for a touchdown.

Columbus, Ga, October 26.-(Speeial )- Outplaying Georgia at every stage of the game, Alabama lost to the Red and Black on a piece of poor judgment by the score of l3 to 3. before one of the largest crowds that ever gathered in Columbus to see a football game. With less than five minutes to play the Alabama quarter line. Had it gone over the game would have been Ala bama's.

HARVARD DEFEATS
 BROWN EASILY IN
 BRILLIANT CONTEST
Long Run Feature of 30 to 10 Win for the Grim
 son Team

Cambridge, Mass. October 26-Many brilliant runs, much fine bunting, few successful forward passes out of numerous tries. an unusual number of penalties, mostly against the Crimson, and ineffee- tual line plunging by both teams, marked Harvards S victory over Brown today bS the score of 30 to 10. The last period was played in twilight and it was then that Crowther, the Brown quarter back ran half the length of the field for Brown $ only touchdown. Previously Captain Ash baugh of Brown had kicked a goal from placement on the 40 yard line
 Harvard scored in each period on three field goals by Brickley from the 40 P and g yard marks respectively and three tonehdoAns, one an interrupted forward pass, the second on a blocked kick and a third on successful forward pass. All three touchdowns were made after long runs.

New York, October 26.-After much experimenting the big football teatas have settled down to their stride and by the time the games between Yale, Princeton and Harvard. Army and Navy. the cnlminatins games of the season, are played. he results will show which really is the best team.
 In the early games the so-ealled small colleges had this advantage that they could afford to play their full strength and try all sorts of experl- ihents with the new rules. II made lit lie difference 10 Syracuse, for example, If she was soundly trouneed by Prince ton, but If she had scored couple of touchdowns and held the Tigers down to short score, 1t would have played hob with the men of Nassau. The big teams therefore have had to make haste slowly.
 At this date 1t would be a mighty difficult mater to pick out the best team between Harvard, Yale and Princeton. As things stand today, il looks as though the Tigers were stronger both In defense and offense and should again annex the champions ship, but there are possibilities In both the big New England teams which may not be overlooked and nothing short of the actual test games will elye the answer.
 In what Is really, to my mind. the gi eatest game of the season, that be- tween the Army and Navy. 1t looks now as though the soldiers had all the better of il. West Point has one of the very best teams playing this season, and in Captain Devon l am

Princeton. W. J., October 26.--Gov.

 Tie governor said he enjoyed the gams very much. As an old football coach himself he remarked that the teams were evenly matched. despite the result, and would hazard no predictions about the approaching Princeton-Yale game.
 "I couldn't do much roofing, he said. ''on account of my voice. I'm saving that for the speeches next week."
 Dr. Wilson's attention was called ths evening to report current today in Wall street that if elected he would not call an extra session of Congress to revise the tariff

 W. B. HaIdeman, editor of the Louis vile Times and part owner Of the Louis vile Goutler-J Journal called to pay lis respects 10 Governor Wilson. The nomi- nee saw a host of graduates and Prince ton friends throughout the day. William l.. Gonzales. editor of the Columbia (S. C., sfafe, and Edward F. Goltra Of Missouri were other visitors.
