But Now Her Face Is the Fairest
of the Fair, Due to Stuart S
Calcium Waters.

Those dimples are like pearls in a

fers clear the face of every pimple, spot
and blemsh. And even If you haven't t
dimples, the clear. transparent skin of
a healthy, Calcium Wafer complexion
is more radiant than the deft touch of
an artist to the most exquisite water
color.
Stuart's Calcium Waters act directly
upon the sweat glands of the skin, since
their mission is to stimulate the ex-
cretory ducts. They do not create
perspiration, but cause the skin to
breathe out vigorously, thus transform
ing perspiration into a gaseous vapor.
The calcium sulphide OF which these
waters are composed. consumes the
germ poisons in the sweat glands and
pores, hence the blood makes a new,
smooth skin in a surprisingly short
time.
You will never be ashamed to look
at yourself in a mirror, once you use
Stuarts Calcium Waters. Nor will your

BATTLE FOR PRESTIGE.

According to Henry Clews. New York
finance expert. the present European
war is really the outcome of the Russo
Japan war. Before that Russia
great power and prestige kept In
check all of the European nations, they
being overawed by her imaginary ex-
aggerated greatness. The result. OF
the lRusso-Japan war undermined
Russias prestige to the point of hui
initiation, of which Emperor William
took advantage to forge ahead, with
the result that Germany finally oc-
cupied Russia's former position as the
most important war power in Europe.
All this, together with the self
adulation of Emperor William, aroused
the jealousy of the car, thus bringing
about the present contest, which Is
really struggle for supremacy be-
tween these two men. This shows the
danger Of one man power. No such
power should In this twentieth CEN
tury be permitted to exist by the peo-

STILL ANOTHER REASON.

There seems to be many reasons FOL
the great war now raging in Europe
Almost every authority that is asked
has different version and any one
OF them taken separately and without
considering the others, seems perfect
ly logical. The Chicago Tribune says
that Americans cannot comprehend
the situation because Americans can
not think In terms of European
thought.
To Americans the foundation of all
government rests in the people. The
purpose of administration, however
far 1t may stray, Is to carry out the
will Of the majority, certainly the
will of the vast majority.
Any man who should seek to set up
monarchy in the United States would
be . criminal, guilty of treason.
In monarchial Europe any man who
would seek to set up republic would
be criminal, guilty of treason.
There government lies not in the
people. but In the throne.
The three emperors claim the right
to govern as the direct agents of God
Almighty. II they govern benignly 1t is
because Of their conscience or be-
cause Of policy.
Popular voice has been recognized In
the little things of government, but
the awful power of making war vests
IN the emperor alone!
Certain It is that war would not
come from the votes IF the people of
Europe, or from free congresses.
If war results it will be war of dy-
nasties brought about for dynast1c pur-
poses.
The Austrian empire is not nation.
It Is government
It is composed Of many peoples held
together partly BY coincidence, and
largely by the existence as matter
of fact, Of the Hapsburg dynasty, that
tremendous machine" which profits
by the empires existence and which
It holds together by the iron hand

There is nothing threatening to the
people inhabiting the dual kingdom In

| If the German sections and the Slay
sections do not work well together In
double harness they would both be
better apart.
Not so the Austrian monarchy.
For their own defense, not for the
defense Of any nation, are the Haps
burgs precipitating war;
The interest of the house Of Haps'
burg appear hostile to the house OF
Romanoff, so the czar prepares ia
throw his peace loving and obedient
subjects into war.
Hundreds of thousands will die that
one or two may be exalted.
In this situation the German kaiser
thinks it necessary for him to lead his
legions into the field, whereupon
France, England, and Italy. one actual
and two practical republics, are thrown
into the vortex.
India may rise. China and Japan
may seek the opportunity to expel the
white man from their territories, even
to follow him to his own.
Civilization faces very destruction
for the sake of the house Of Hapsburg
and the interests of the house of Ro-
manoff!
If war come, which God forbid, the
damage and misery will be innmeasur-
able.
If it does come, let us hope that 1t
will bring about the. downfall of the
barbarous conditions whereby one man
or one family can slaughter nation

at least another century.
The effect of war upon the United
States will be highly injurious. Food
products would rise, and the taking OF
hundreds Of thousands of men out OF
employment in Europe would mean a
prolonged demand upon our food sup
plies. The scarcity Of labor abroad
would also be reflected here, resulting
in higher wages in some industries
and q general further rise In the cost
of living. Probably some industries
would benefit by the demand for war
material, and there would be better
demand for our manufactures OF steel,
textiles, etc, to meet the vacancy
caused by the loss Of foreign trade
which Germany and other European
nations would inevitably incur. 1t Is
folly to suppose that such wholesale
destruction of life and property could
be OF benefit to the world at large.
The drawback would not end in an In
crease In the cost of living. The
