A SKIN TIGHTENER
TO REDUCE WRINKLES
(From Popular Medicine.)

In beauty culture, as in the treat
ment of disease, the tendency nova
days is to seek the removal of causes,
rather than TO treat symptoms or
effects. In the matter of wrinkles, for
instance, we know that the lines or
burrows are caused by the skin be-
coming loose in places, so it does not
perfectly fit the flesh beneath The
skin then wrinkles" or says. Natur-
ally the proper thing to do is to tighten
the skin-make it fit-then there's no
room for lines wrinkles and folds, and
no surplus skin to sag or bag.
The best known formula for the pur-
pose is: Saxolite, l o., in u pint
witchhazel Use wash lotion. The
effect is truly remarkable, especially
as results are immediate. Ask the
druggist for the powdered saxolite
which dissolves more quickly than amy
other form.

THE "UNPLEDGED" DELEGATES.


Democratic voters of the Third
Congressional district are not going
Z be misled by any talk of independ-
MT or ~unpledged delegates to the
.ational convention It Baltimore.
/ is well known that all delegates in
New Jersey who are not pledged to
the nomination of Woodrow Wilson
are representatives of the Smith
Nugent machine and will vote in the
convention as Smith dictates. This
may mean a vote for Clark, or Har-
mon or Underwood. 1t will prob
sbly be Harmon if the party leaders
who are representing the special
interests believe they can accom-
plish his nomination. If they can
not have Harmon they viii take
Clark. The scheme is, anything to
peat Wilson. The interests do
not want Wilson for a presidential
candidate because he would prob
ably be elected and then they could
not WELD the influence they are ac-
customed to exercise at Washing
ton.
Jim Smith, who is working so
hard to defeat Wilson in New Jer-
sey, has always been closely allied
with the Interests" There are
many leading Democrats in the state
who claim that Smith has time and
again sold out his party because 1t
has served the Interests best to
have the Republicans remain in
power. Smith, when a United States
senator, was one of the four Demo
Gratis in that body who disgraced
their party by boiling in order to
cast their votes so as to save the
sugar trust Ever since that time
he has often been termed Sugar
Smith" II is this same Smith, sec
onded by the ~unspeakable Jim MI
gent, who is now putting so-called

gates in the field to be voted for al
