Is Paid Out to Mine En-.
ployesin This Section for
Work Of a Month.

saturday was a good pay day with
the Consolidation Coal Company
more than a quarter of million
dollars being paid out, to the en-
ployees of It's West Virginia d.
vision for work done during the
month of February. Altogether. this
company and the independent COM
panies dIsbursed more than half a
million dollars to their employees in
this section.
OF the amount distributed among
the employees of the West Virginia
division by the Consolidation Com
pany about one-third was paid
through the Clarksburg offices. This
sum was more than 100000.
The prospects are splendid fol-
ia steady operation of all the mines
in this region at their full capacity
from now until November at the
least. The lake trade will open in
about two weeks and enough coal
has already been sold in that trade
to insure good operations all sum.
mer. 1t is believed, however, that
this will increase during the early
summer months so that there will
be an active production until winter.

Mr.. Dillon says but few new laws
are needed. "There is little de-

islation at this time. The people
are more interested in the faithful
enforcement OF the laws we have.
Business genrally demands what

Mr.. Dillon believes capital and la

encouraged. He declares himself
for a laborer's compensation law,
endorses the tax department Of the
state and favors a primary election

Home-Made Beauty Aids
 (By Ella Ellis in The Arch)

If you dissolve an original package of mayatone in a half pint witch hazel you have a true complexion beautifer that will make your skin smooth, clear. satiny and free from blemish. Gently massage the face, neck and arms with this simple To- tion and you will be delighted with the improvement. It is better than face powder.
 Put four ounces of powdered orris root in a fruit jar. add an original package of therox, shake together, and you have a perfect dry shampoo powder. Sift a teaspoonful on the head, brush through the hair. and 1t removes dust. excess oil and dandruf. Therox makes the hair grow long and luxuriantly, and keeps it soft. fluffy and lustrous.
 ITO make a hair remover, mix pow dered delatone and water in sufficient quantities to form paste. Cover the hairs. on face or forearms with the paste, allow to remain two minutes, then wash the skin and the hairs will be gone. This method is sure, safe and speedy.
 Thin eyebrows come in long, thtck k and silky if pyroxin is applied to lash roots with thumb and forefinger. Thin, straggly eyebrows will grow long, thick and lustrous with the same treat ment."
