FACE ALMOST COVERED WITH
PlMPLES AND BLACKHEADS

Atchison, Kan.-"For a number OF
years l suffered very greatly from skin
eruption. My face was very red and
irritated, being almost covered with
pimples and blackheads. The pimples
were scattered over my face. They
were fine rash with the exception Of
q few large pimples on my forehead
and chin. My face burned and looked
red as if exposed to either heat or
cold. 1t was not only unsightly but
very uncomfortable. l tried several
remedies but couldn't get any relief.
I was recommended to use Cuticura
Soap and Cuticura Ointment.
II applied the Cuticura Ointment in
the evening, leaving 1t for about five
minutes, then washing it of with
Cuticura Soap and hot water. l wash.

After about four months of this appli.

pimples. I still use the Cuticura

Gently submitted by the employees.

whether the power to call strike

Formal notice of this action was
served upon the roads this evening in

NAV Have cure for NeuraIala.

One never gets much sympathy for
neuralgia-nor seasickness, presum-
ably because they do not kill. But
people have died from the results Of
seasickness and the list of those who
have been driven to suicide by neural
gia would be a startling one. Now
comes DIR. Rudolph Matas of New Or
leans with statement that neuralgia
may be cured by injections of alcohol
into the nerve ganglions at the base
of the skull. This gratifying discov-
cry justifies the hope that the tri-
umphant progress Of medical science
will presently enable our physicians
to alleviate headaches and colds.

ALIEN BILL WILL BECOME LAW.
Governor johnson Of California Says
That He Will Sign II.

Sacramento, Cal, May Ex-Governor
Johnson will sign an alien bill as soon
as it comes to him, "reserving a rea-
sonable time" in which to listen to
protests.
Il have assured Mr.. Bryan" he said
tonight, that when the bill comes to
me from he Legislature | will wait
reasonable time for his protests
cannot say how long. If the bill passes
while the legislature is still in ses-
sion, have ten days in which to sign
it. If it comes to me after the legis-
lature has adjourned, have 30 days. l
expect the bill to pass"
Identical with the Webb re-draft OF
the Bardsall bill there is pending in
the assembly the Bloodgood bill, and
Governor Johnson expects one of the
two to pass the assembly.
1T has been said" he said, that
President Wilson and Mr.. Bryan wish
to place the bill before the Japanese
government at Toxic before it is
signed. That can be done by cable in
10 minutes"
The senate today showed deter
mnation to put aside the recommended
tions of President Wilson and his en-
voy. Secretary Bryan, and pass an act
prohibiting Japanese and other aliens
ineligible to citizenship from holding
land by purchase in any circumstances
or by lease for more than three years.
In phraseology the bill as redrafted
by Attorney General Webb after many
conferences with Governor Johnson
and the administration floor leaders
omitted the words "inelieible to citi-
zenship" which are offensive to Japan,
but those in charge of the bill re-
peatedly admitted in debate that the
end sought was the same.

TOBACCO SALES.
In Greensboro Last Week We're
the Heaviest of the Season.
Deliveries Postponed Until
FEBRUARY 10.

The deliveries of tobacco in Owens.
boro last week were the heaviest of any
week since the delivery season opened.
In addition to the rush by the poolers
of the Green River Association there
was a large amount delivered by the
Equity and Home Warehouse poolers.
They will rot be so heavy the pres
ent week, because the Equity and
Home Warehouse deliveries have been
called off until February 10. owing to
the fact that the pool with these asso-
Citations in the other counties of the
district has not yet been placed. 1t is
thought that a deal will be closed in
time for deliveries to begin again on the
date nam-d, but if not it is probable
that there will be another postpone
ment, as the poolers in the other coun.
ties are complaining of the deliveries
by the Dayiess county poolers alleging
that they are virtually bumpers" on
on the other counties.
The graders at different factories
where tobacco is being received are
having much less trouble than when the
season first opened. and everything
seems to be working along smoothly. -

Farmers Widow
Receives Money.

Henderson, KY, Jan. asa strange
story has come to light here of a mys-
ferrous deposit made in the Ohio VAL
ley Banking and Trust Company, seven
years ago. The amount was $3.50, and
ii was paid over to the widow of Arch
Denton. who, while living. was a prom
inent and well-to.do farmer of this
county.
1t appears that Denton came TO town
seven years ago and sold his tobacco
for $3.50. He took too many drinks and
was placed in the city prison over
night. When he was released the next
day he didn't have any money and ac-
cused the police of robbing him. Re-
Gently this bank advertised the uncalled
for deposits and sent notice to Mrs.
Denton, and she called and got the
money. II is believed that Denton
either deposited the money while in
toxicated or that some friends seeing
his condition, took the money from him
and deposited 1t In the bank.
