The notified skin is the index Of a de-

Cleanse your face with oils and
creams But also use water Many ex-
perimeuts have taught me that washing
the face IS a process OF several stages.
To remove the toughest dirt. use oils OF
creams. Spread these literally on the

The Hair.

You wash your hair more times than
the old fashioned theories taught you
to-you brush 1t sail the time, whenever
you get chance, and you don't curl it
any of the time. and then when It IS
brushed and washed into a clean fresh
mass you dress tt as smoothly and
gracefully as possible. and keep it in
its proper place as background for your
face.
And as for skin. when you have OBJ
served the rules of keeping your inter
nal system sweet and clean, you do the
same by exteruals Keep the skin clean
and uncl0gged and free TO do some cor
rect breathing Of its own, and then
make il soft and flexible by the con

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

The answer 10 your first question
can not be decisive for the reason
that you tell 50 little.
It is never proper for girl 10 write

Johnson Can MOI Appear
in Music Hall

LONDON. Aug 25AJack Johnsons
music hall engagements in London
were postponed today on account of the
intense resentment displayed on all
sides.
1t is understood that the postpone
nent will be made permanent later, as
the London authorities have threatened
to make trouble If the engagement Of
the negro pugilist is not cancelled
Johnson says that he Is going to give
the public music halls, where he is
billed, a two days test to find If the
public want him to show. If they do, he
" Ill fiji his engagements.
He entered a box tonight at the Eus-
ton variety theater and was loudly
cheered. Two performers, who had
taken a prominent part against John
som in the controversy that has been
waged over his promised appearance
were unable to finish their turns owing
to the demonstration in his favor.
An attempt by Johnson to address
the audience in the Euston theater from
the box was frustrated by a band OF
youths IN the opposite box, who shouted
him down.
The marquis of Queensberry, in a
statement to the Daily Express, ap-
peals for fair play for Johnson He
argues that there ought to be an un-
written law forbidding whites and
blacks getting into the ring together
and a law forbidding marriages be-

ANA UR COLLIE RS
BEGIN TO CA THER
Mondays Field Promises to
Be Finest Game Has
Known

NETWORK, Aug. 25.--Amateur golf
ers began to gather today for a week Of
whetting UP their strokes over the links
of the Garden City Golf club on Long
island. where the national amateur
tournament commences next Monday.
Entries for the championship close to-
night, hut the list probably will not be
made public until the middle Of the
week
It is known, however. that the field
will be one OF the finest the amateur
national has known, including crack
players Of the east and west, as well IS
a few from abroad.
There will be Jerome Travers. holder
of the title; his ancient foe, w. II.
Travis; the brilliant young Chicago
player, Charles Evans Jr., Abe Mitchell.
the famous British player, and Normal
Hunter, Scottish Internationally.
The absence Of Warren Wood. the
western champion, who was runner up
in the national tournament two years
ago. will somewhat weaken the western
contingent. but with Evans. Paul Hunter
and Mason Phelps, Chicago will have
some promising cOntenders.
Travers' friends assert that their ia
vorfte is PLAYING better golf this year
than ever before, and that lie he strikes
his best form there is little chance Of
his title being wrested from him.
New England will have some likely
candidates in Heinrich Schmidt, who
took Harold Hilton to the nineteenth
hole in the British amateur last spring,
and Francis QuimOt. one of the best
Massachusetts golfers.
Frederick Herreshoff, twice a finalist
Fownes Jr and r. NJ Byers. the two
Pennsylvania players, and others also
figure prominently among prospective
entrants.
