Health and Beauty Advice
BY MRS. NAE MARTYR

Celia: You can't expect to appear
Fascinating with pimples all over your
face. During the summer any ones
J blood is likely to become thick and
sluggish from accumulated poisons
which frequently find an outlet in the
face. This condition can be overcome
by taking a good system tonic and
blood purifier. An excellent and mex
pensive. old-fashioned tonic of tried
merit is made with kardene. Dissolve
one ounce of kardene in a half-pint
alcohol (not Whisky then add one-half
cupful sugar and enough hot water to
make a quart. Take q tablespoonful
before each meal and you will soon feel
like new person. and your complex
ion will clear and take on healthy
tone.
w. ]. B.: Those annoying hairs on
your chin will quickly vanish after an
application Of delatone paste. made
by mixing together q little water and
powdered delatone. This paste Is to
be applied and left on the skin two or
three minutes. then rubbed off and the
skin washed. The delatone treatment
IL quite harmless and always leaves
the skin clear and smooth.
Gussie: I, too, was flat-chested until
used the famous vaucaire treatment,
but now have q we'll developed figure.
You can prepare this treatment in the
privacy Of your home and I am sure
the result will be entirely pleasing. Dis
solve TX cupsful sugar in 1 pint water
and add. ounce gallol. Then take 2
teaspoonsful at meal time Excepting
in stubborn cases, development starts
quite soon.
E. b. S.: Altho gray hair Is some-
times caused by worry, 1t Is generally
due to diseased scalp as indicated by
such symptoms as dandruff, itching Of
the scalp and brittle, falling hair Of
which you speak. To restore your scalp
to healthy condition. first keep 1t
clean by shampooing every ten days or
two weeks with canthrox. then mas
sage the scalp, using good quinine
hair tonic. You can prepare the tonic
yourself ny adding one ounce Of Quin-
xoin to half-pint Of alcohol (not
Whisky and half pint Of cold water.
This is much better than most ready
prepared hair tonics, as it contains
nothing to make the hair coarse, sticky
or "stringy" It will remove the dam
druff and stop your hair from coming
out. You will find It an ideal dressing
for the hair and very refreshing to an
itching scalp.

NEGROS PLANTERS
FACE SUGAR
CRISIS

That Negros sugar planters are
facing the worst year they have had
since the passage OF sthe Payne Till
is the opinion of Ricardo Nolan. Ba-
colod lawyer. hacendero and property
owner. Mr.. Nolan was in Manila for
two days and left Saturday afternoon
for his Negros home, says the Manila
Weekly Times.
Approached by Times reported
Mr.. Nolan said: Only one thing can
save the Negros planter from ultf-
mate bankruptcy and that is the more
general construction OF the sugar ceu-
trail And the pity of il is tina. last
years prices and crops put the plant
er SO much in deEt that he is unable
TO stand the expense Of central
What vial save the situation will be
the governments stepping in and con-
structing centrals in which planters
will have shares The government
should superintend these companies
until il RECEIVERS the amount of its in
yestment and then let them be con-
troiled by the planters.
There seems no other solution to
the problem of Negroes At present q
committee Of the agricultural bank is
touring the south in the hope of being
able to interest hacenderos in the
plan whereby the agricultural bank
will loan money on sugar. But this
plan is not feasible, for many Of the
planters are already 50 heavily mort
gagged that they must put their sugar
UP as a deposit with the mortgages.
Two years ago a record crop with
record prices induced the planters to
make all sorts Of investments in ma
chinery and in an extension of their
planting. The result was that they
tied up their future profits. When adj
verse conditions came last year and
the sugar crisis followed them, few
Of the planters were prepared. Mort
cages were the seoul.
''This year conditions are worse
even than they were last year. Ba-
guios and locusts have done incalcu-
