1T is CRIMINAL TO NEGLECT
THE SKIN AND HAIR

Think Of the suffering entailed by
neglected skin troubles-mental be-
cause Of disfiguration, physical be-
cause Of pain. Think of the pleasure
of clear skin, soft, white hands, and
good hair. These blessings, so essen
tial to happiness and even success in
life, are often only matter of little
thoughtful care in the selection of
effective remedial agents. Cuticura
Soap and Ointment do so much for
poor compilations, red, rough hands,
and dry, thin and falling hair, and cost
SO little, that it is almost criminal not
to use them. Although Cuticura Soap
and Ointment are sold everywhere, a
postal to "Cuticura," Dept. L, Bos-
ton, will secure a liberal sample Of
each, with 32-page booklet on skin
and scalp treatment.

Rorah,s RushY Hair.

Senator Borah-of Idaho is one Of the
few big men of the convention who
cannot be called picturesque, unless
his bushy hair entities him to that de-
scription. 1t is said his only reason
for wearing so much hair is to con-
ceal a bad scar on the back of his
head received in an accident in his
youth.
Mr.. Borah, like Jonah K. Kalania-
naole, Hawaiian delegate, has round,
chubby, Buster Brown type Of physi-
ognamy. His dignity, however, is
such that none would think of calling
him "Cupid"-and that is the brown
skinned islanders nickname in con-
gress
Has His Name on SIS Bill.
A southern delegate was much ex-
cited over the appearance of a tall
negro at the Coliseum annex who

When the currency was produced
the friend called attention to the sig
nature of the registrar of the treasury,
Judson Lyon.
That same dark person over there
is Judson Lyon, delegate from Geor-
gia," was the explanation.
