If you have any cutaneous blemish,
don't use paint, powder or anything else
to cover it up. Too often this only em-
phasizes the defect. Besides, it's much
easier to remove the disfigurement With
ordinary mercolized wax. Applied night

patches, sallowness. red or yellow
blotches or any surface eruptions. The

beautiful skin beneath 10 brought wholly

r. E. Smith, chairman of the state
Republican central committee, who is
probably closer to the present admin
istration than any one else in the
state, is now in Europe, where he is
taking the baths at Carlsbad. This is
old news, but / mention it because of
the fact that the gossips have spoken
of credit him with taking decided
stand against the extra session idea
before leaving. 1t is said that he
argued with Governor Eberhart
against the call, but that his excel
Iency insisted that in view Of his
veto of the Minnette control bill and
the Nolan utilities bill as applied to
Minneapolis he could do nothing else
but call the legislature in special SEES
sion to pass statewide control meas
ure. Again I am compelled to admit
that know no more about the whole
thing than the gossips, but Ed will be
back on the job soon and then some
thing will happen. The Minneapolis
man is pretty much it and what he
has to say will cut some ice with the
administration.

One of the biggest bonding con-
Germs in the United States is the Ma
tional Surety company, but even it
could not prevail against the strong
arm methods of Secretary of State
Schmahl, who last week notified the
concern that it must either pay its
debts or quit doing business with the
state. Some months ago the state con.
tracted for the construction of drain
age ditch in Roseau county. The com
pany failed and the completion of the
work was attempted by it's bondsmen,
which in turn failed. AS a result the
state suffered a money loss of over
$4,000. Mr.. Schmahl learned that the
National Surety company had pur.
chased the assets of the defunct bond

Business Interests Opposed to
Governors Idea.
CALL LIKELY TO Be DELAYED
Some Wise Ones Go as Far as to Pre-
dict That the Plan May Be
Dropped Altogether.

st. Paul Especial )-Governor Eber-
hart's almost emphatic declaration
made on number of occasions that
he would call a special session of the
legislature for the purpose of passing
a public utilities commission act
would seem to preclude any possibility
of a fall down, but just the same there
is some quiet talk to the effect that
the proposition may be called off. The
story going the rounds is that the
business interests of the state-not
the utilities, please bear in mind
have about convinced his excellency
that the call for a special session at
this time would be inadvisable. This
is taken to mean that the call, if
made, will be delayed beyond the
time suggested and probably dropped
altogether. The railroads, it is re-
ported, have been especially active in
trying to head off the special session.
Another line OF industry naturally op-
posed, but which has so far failed to
show its hand, is the brewing trade.
To say that it is not interested would
be to say what is not so. What there
Is in the gossip and how much truth
lays back of it is impossible of verifi,
cation, first, because of Governor Eber-
hart's natural Discrimination to say yes
or no when any public matter is in.
volved, and, further, because the stand
taken by him will not admit of any
clubbing just now, but that the bust
ness interests are opposed to a special
session is quite natural. That they
should be trying to point out to him
the inconvenience that they would
suffer if a special session is called is
also quite natural No one knows il
better than they and so perhaps after
all there may be more truth than tic.
ton in the talk which is going the
rounds. All can suggest is to wait
and see.

The new beer law which has been
in force since April 1 offers much
speculation to the best of them in the
temperance element. 1t appears that
the tax is graded according to the
per cent of alcohol. Now the brew
cries have turned out three kinds of
beer none Of which contain more
than 2A per cent of alcohol, The
brewers encountered some little
trouble in finding name for the va
rious brands, but they finally settled
on some strong dialect terms and
they appear to so wen. The brewers
are on the safe side of the maximum
limit required by the new law, the
strongest of the three kinds Of beer
containing only 1.9 per cent alcohol.
The brewers are naturally interested
as to what effect all this is going to
have on the temperance element.
Among the temperance organizations
there is a sentiment against permit
ting the use of even the weakest kind
of beer as long as there is alcohol in
it at all Their opposition is also due
to the fact that they fear that the
new brands of beer will only serve
to tempt them to take stronger goods
in course of time. There are many
people who claim outright and firmly
believe that the new brands of beer
we're simply thrown on the market
