RAILROAD BOYS ALL
KNOW THIS MAN WELL
c. T. Wilson of Ell Paso
Says Some Interesting
Things About Plant
Juice.

Mr.. c. T. Wilson in the Passenger
service Of the Southern Pacific and who
stops at the Hotel AngeluS has lived in
Fl PaSo % years. Every railroad man
over this run knows him. Mr. Wilson
received benefits from the use of Plant
Juice and therefore cheerfully gives
this statement:
Plant Juice was surely the treat
ment was looking for. 1 was suffer
ing from combination of liver, stom-
ach, and kidney trouble. Train service
is not the best thing in the world for a
case OF indigestion. I had been suffer-
ing Tor TWO or three years with it;
kidneys giving me some trouble too:
had pains across the back To tell the
truth 1 Just felt down and out, pretty
near all in Some of the railroad BOYS
bottle and it has helped me right from
the start. It is the best treatment for
constipation l have ever used. I have
always believed that any thing that
would actually act on my liver would
cure my constipation and that is surely
what the Plant Juice does. I am glad
to tell any one what 1 think of it
Plant Juice contains the essences
that are craved by diSordered stomachs
and starved nerves. Its revivifying and
constructive action upon nerves, StOm-
ach. kidneys and liver is so apparent
that the user finds himself infused
with new energy and life. 1t repairs
and rebullds waste tissues of vital or
gans that have been undermined by
vegetable and free of any harmful in
gredient. Call today on the Plant
Juice man a. Kelly & PoIlard's. A
bottle of Plant Juice will do you more
good than anything you have ever
taken

BY EVELYN kORNER.


q OMEBODY has said that the hand
is the second face, and I believe
If one has pretty hands one has
good right to be proud of them, for
there are more pretty faces than pretty
hands in tn eWorld, and it's much cas-
Ter to beautify the face than to make
the hand graceful and charming.
a woman's hand has so much to do,
the average woman, who has to care
for her house, to look after her chill
dren, and who has her hand in hun
dred and one different things during
the day.
However, even homework no longer
has terrors for the woman who wants
to keep her hands pretty.
When a Womans hands get very red
for no apparent reason, she is usually
wearing some tight band around her
body. either a corset that is too snug
or tight garters. Even tight shoes
will make the hands red; and, of
course. long immersion in cold or hot
water will do the same thing. Then
again, when the hands grow red and
grease or lard, rubbed around the
person may have rheumatism or govt,
for it is one of the first signs of these
to be found at the doctors office.
Preventing Dirty Nails.
II one has any dirty work to do like
polishing shoes, for instance, or the
ones fingers from getting dirty, little
grease or lard, rubbed around the
finger nails will keep the dirt from
getting in them
After the hands have been thoroughly
washed they should be dried with
powdered starch. and sometimes it is a
good thing to use oatmeal boiled and
strained, instead of using soap Cat
meal makes the hands nice and soft,
and so will almond meal or bran.
For the woman who has much house
work to do, there are various kinds
of gloves to protect the hands while
doing it, and if she objects to the odors
which may linger on the skin, she can
remove the unpleasant odor by rub
bling them with powdered mustard or
by putting mustard in the water in
which she washes her hands
I have found that the best whitener
for ordinary purposes is plain lemon
juice and the oil in lemon peel. This
softens the skin and makes il delight
full to the touch
When your hands are very rough and
YOU want to get them soft in a very
short time take a little sweet cream,
cold cream. buttermilk or butter, wash
your hands thoroughly in warm water,
then rub in any one of these creams
YOU may have, while the hands are
still wet Rub until there is nothing
left to absorb; then wash off quickly
in warm water, just enough to do away
with the sticky feeling which is so I'M
pleasant People whose hands chap
very easily ought 10 do this every time
they wash their hands. using an mex
pensive cold cream, and pure soap
I have heard lots OF women com
plain that the use of grease in any
form on the hand and forearm would
make the hair grow. Well, there is
a simple remedy for that 1t consists
of a five cent piece of pumice bought
at the drug store, and rubbed on the
arm.
Light Rubbing.
If your pumice stone is soft and
fairly smooth. as it sometimes is, you
won't need anything else but a little
light rubbing over the hairy surface.
But if the Dumice stone is coarse and

rough, wet it a little with soapy water
and then rub it briskly and lightly in
a circular manner over the skin on
/ which the hair is growing. You will
soon wear off the hair, and if you rub
lightly you won't irritate the skin. If
you do apply a little glycerine or cold
cream.
Most people can use glycerine on
their hands and arms, though they
cannot use it on their face, and it is
good thing to have on ones wash
stand for its constant use will keep
the hands very nice and soft
Proba bly, the main reason why the
skin of so many hands IS so coarse
and ugly IS because people don't take
time enough to dry their hands prop
erly, but hurry over them as best they
may.
Spots On Nails.
The little white spots on the nails
are due to poor circulation, and the
ridges on the nails come from excess
uric acid in the blood
The white spots occasionally come
from bruises or bumps, and then they
soon disappear. but when they are the
results of other troubles one must
seek the remedy elsewhere.
If you want to get your hands very
white, here is a paste which isn't diff
in good condition Take about two
ounces of almond meal and four
ounces of SWEET olive oil, four ounces
of strained honey and a quarter of the
yOlk of an egg. Melt the honey in a
double boiler, pour the almond meal
in it and mix it thoroughly then heat
in the yolk Of the egg, add the oil drop
by drop, and knead until firm paste
is produced. When the paste is cool,
apply to the hands and wear gloves
over it. These cosmetic gloves, as they
are called, which come for the pur-
pose. are very large, chamOis skin
gloves. with several holes punched in
the palm for ventilation. An ordin-
airy glove will do if it is clean, but Of
course it must be several sizes larger
than one would wear ordinarily
People no longer wear gloves that
are too small for them, not only be-
cause they are ugly. but because they
deform the hands and give them a
puffy, unpleasant appearance. A large
hand looks smaller in a loose glove
than it does pressed into one that is
half a size too small.

UNITED STATES
 LEAGUE ABOUT TO SUSPEND BUSINESS

The United States League seems to be near the end of it's rope, and close observers of the situation are pre- dieting that the organization will not survive until Decoration Day, which is only two days away. At Bronx Oval yesterday the Chicago Club, which was scheduled to play the New York team, struck in 8 body, and no game was played. The manager of the team was not at the grounds but one of the players, who acted as spokes- man for the team, announced that they were through and would return to Chicago in some way, even if they had to walk.
 Two of the Chicago players arrived at the field early and put on their uniforms. The other players did not appear until o'clock. an hour before the time. for the game to begin. They took a look at the stands, which held about fifty people, and then decided to quit. After waiting for the two early arrivals to don street clothes the players left the park. The New York players had been warming up and were ready to play the game.
 s During the past week Cleveland and Washington surrendered their fran chises because of lack of support, but it was announced Sunday that both would remain in the league.

The middleweight title, which has been in abeyance since the untimely end of Stanley Ketchel, will find a final resting place at the St. Nicholas A. C., New York, tonight when Eddie McGoorty and Bob Mona trade slams for ten rounds. McGoorty is not so certain that the bout will go the anti cipated distance, for he plans to chop Moha on a vital spot on the chin long before the tenth round rolls around. When McGoorty chops, his opponent generally Hops.
 McGoorty and Moha are the most prominent claimants of the mdch- claimed title. McGoorty. however, staked his claim first, and he has de- feated every one who has disputed his contention. Eddie possesses the main essentials for champion, and he insists that Moha will be claiming ranking among the third raters by the time he gets through with him.

According to precedent, there is considerable truth Tn the baseball proverb that whatever team leads in the big league race in the last week of May has the pennant cinched. There are exceptions to all rules and proverbs, but it. is fact that in past years the championship has just about been decided by the last of the merry month of May.
 In 1909 the last of May found De- troit leading the American League, with Philadelphia second, and that was the way they finished. On May 31, 1909, the National League stand ing was Pittsburgh first, Chicago sec ond and New York third, which was also the final standing. In 1910, on the last of May, the American League race was led by Philadelphia, with New York, Detroit, Boston and Cleve- land following in the order given. They finished that way Chicago, New York and Pittsburgh were first, sec ond and third in the National on May 90 and at the finish of the 1910 sea son.

won the pennant, in the National, was the leader on the fatal last of May, and Philadelphia, Chicago and Pitts burgh were the other first division teams, but at the close Philadelphia had dropped from second to fourth. In the American League in 1911 the proverb fell down utterly. as the last week of May found Detroit in the lead by so wide a margin that it did not appear that any other team could ever catch up with it. Philadelphia was second, Boston third and Chicago fourth At the wind-up Philadelphia led, Detroit was second, Cleveland third and Chicago fourth. Cleveland climbed from sixth to third place 'af- ter the last of May, and Boston feil from third to fifth. In fact, Wash ington and St. Louis, in seventh and eighth places, respectively, were the only American League teams that continued through the season true to their last of May form. While there are departures from the rule, the teams that are out in front at the end of this week will have excellent chances of getting the coveted flag.

Coach Rodgers of the Yale crew an- nounced last night that the oarsmen will leave for Gales Ferry tomorrow.
 Upon arrival at Broadview there will be two rows every day for the university crew, and following. out Bob Cooks idea there will be almost continuous pair oar work. It is very likely that a shakeup will occur soon in the first boat and this in all prob- ability will give the crew it's final makeup.
 Seven of the varsity oarsmen who are going to the Ferry were members of last years championship freshmen eight and all but Allen have had pre- vious experience. Romeyn, Scully, Ives and Philbin are veterans of last years varsity four and eight.

It was none too early to get down to busi- ness, for the new rules are intended to help the running game, and after long experiments with the 'loose ball'' game, it is not so easy a task to build up strong running attack. Cunningham is an old football and baseball star who has had plenty of experience in the line and back of it. He is an all-round man, quiet and un- assuming, and with just the person ality for active work on the field in close daily touch with the players.
