Talks on Success
to Business Men

The Geography of Success" was the
text taken by Charles l.. Bartholomew.
the csrtoonist OF the Minneapolis Journal.
in his chalk talk before the University
club Monday noon.
After the announcement OF the topic he
straightway declared that there Is no
geography Of success. but that such an
abstract quality is in the individual.
Success is in yourself and not In the
town or business which surrounds you"
said he as he drew a cartoon of Roose-
Welt chasing an elephant labeled third
term" His audience caught the humor and
significance OF the sketch instantly and
applauded vigorously.
1T has been said that a cartoonist is
something new under the sun. wish to
make II plain that cartoonists and car
toons are as old as mankind Itself. Before
man could speak or write he made plain
his commands to his wife and his wishes
to his felfowman through the medium Of
drawn pictures"
While causing laugh by the state
ment. he doubled his humor by an evolu-
ton in a sketch of Robinson Crusoe 10
the figure OF a woman on a desert island
searching for a man. E..
Mr.. Bartholomew illustrated talk
sparkled with humor and none of II was
lost on his audiencs.

know rs Much Of Wife.
Actions as Now,

Arguments in C. W. Hulrs suit to en-
JON his former wife, Mrs. William R.
Ackeen. from collecting a SEQ alimony
instaiiment, due April /, are being made.
In resisting the injunction application
'6yron G. Burbank. for Mrs. McKeen, ar
sued that Hull at this late date has no
rsnt to come into court and seek to have
SET aside an alimony contract into which
ne Freely entered a year ago. He con-
tended that Hull made no contest at the
ume' though he could have done so Just as
well then as now. He was not induced TO
enter into the contract by fraud and at
the time Mrs. McKeen procured her d.
vorce from Hull she had no intention Of
marrying McKeen.
AS to the evidence that the former Mrs.
Hull conferred with McKeen when neso-
tiating for divorce from Hull, Mr.. Bur-
bank said that 1t is immaterial whether
she did or not, because there was no
legal reason why she should not confer
with McKeen or anyone else In whom she
had confidence.
+. A. Brogan. for Mr.. Hull, argued that
1t the time his client entered into the
aiimony contract he did not know what he
now knows regarding the relations OF his
former wife and McKeen and had he
known OF them he would have resisted,

To Remove First
Signs of Old Age

The infarlible first sign Of age is
the sagging cheek muscles" says Nine
Cavalier. whose fame as a beauty cul-
turist is scarcely less than that Of 8
singer. These are more difficult and
serious TO treat than wrinkles" she
continues. The sagging muscles indicate
they have grown too weak TO remain
in place; they must be assisted, streng-
thened." ......
The best way to strengthen them is
by using a wash lotion made by dis
solving an ounce of powdered saxolite
IN a half pint witch hazel. This creates
a freer circulation to the parts, besides
causing muscles and skin to contract.
Saxolite. proeurable at every drug store,
has long been known by complexion spe-
cialists 70 possess remarkable properties,
valuable in treating flsbby tissue and
