One Application Will
Remove Hairy Crowths
(Boudoir Secrets)

No woman need longer tolerate
ugly hairy growths, for with a single
application of plain delatone paste
it is an easy matter to quickly ban
ish hair or fuzz from any part of the
face Or neck. Just mix some water
with little powdered delatone and
spread this on the hairy surface for
2 or minutes, then rub 1t off and
the skin will be free from hair or
blemish. After this treatment the
skin should be washed to free 1t from
the remaining delatone.-Ady.

RED CROSS Seals

Selling Red Cross Seals is a Job

can 'vise." said the hustling sales
manager of an Eastern State yester-
day. How many different ways are
they sold7 well, I'd have hard
work TO tell you all OF them, but here
are a few of the ways:
"Of course we use the regular
over-the-counter method, only we
usually substitute for the polite clerk

more enterprising society bud, who
serve as a volunteer. Scores OF them

over 100000 seals this way last
year. Red Cross Seal tag fairs, par

popular In different parts of the
country. The motion-picture theatres
are worked. and in many OF them a
seal is put on every ticket for certain
performances. Auctioneering of the
first seals is profitable, too

when il comes to advertising, we
leave no stone unturned. Besides
the newspapers, magazines. bill
boards and street-cars, hundreds OF

1 instance. this year over 5000 colored
lantern slides OF the seal are being
shown in motion-picture houses all
over the country. A special motion
picture is also being an advertising
/ feature. Clocks, thermometers, lad
ders and other indicators that tell
how the sale is progressing are used
/ in large cities. In Milwaukee last
year a crusader" with a Red Cross
shield and banner, paraded the
streets for a week before Christmas
and attracted much attention. Every
year new ideas for advertising are
devised.
"The result OF all this has been a
steady increase in sales until last
year we reached a total OF nearly 45,-

WE'LL ATTENDED MEETING

The Woodmen meeting Friday
night was we'll attended and most
successful from a business and social
standpoint. About fifty members
were present After the usual bust
ness was transacted, the, meeting re-
solved itself into social session.
The committee had provided an
abundant supply of cakes and fruit
with a barrel of lemonade and sew
eral boxes of fine cigars, all of which
were appreciated, while the members
listened to number of talks for the
Good of the Order State Organ
izer Dame, who has done so much for
the Ocala camp, was present, and
gave an address which was full of
information interesting and useful
for Woodmen. Sovereigns Little,
Colbert, McIver and many others
made good talks. Several excellent
plans were put on foot and will be
worked out in the next few months

GOLDMAN WILL
BUY OUT KLEIN
Mercantile Business
ON the West Side will Change
Hands October 1St

Mr.. B. Goldman, of Why Pay
More" fame and Mr.. Jake Klein,
have contracted between themselves,
with substantial deposit put in
the hands Of a third party in the way
OF a forfeit, that Mr.. Goldman is to
buy the Klein store on October 1st.
On this date Mr.. Goldman viii take
charge OF the store and Mr.. Klein
will retire from the business, but
will remain to assist Mr.. Goldman
and help him to get acquainted with
the stock and the trade for two or
three months.
News Of the change will come as a
surprise to the friends of both mer-
chants. Mr.. Klein has been one of
Ocala's most successful merchants.
When this paper first began doing
business with him he had only few
hundred dollars worth of stock, in a
down near the Seaboard depot on
Magnolia street. Now, in addition
to the stock that Mr.. Goldman is to
buy, which is one of the largest in
the city, Mr.. Klein has some very
substantial income bearing invest
ments in New York City and con-
siderable ready cash.
Mr.. Goldman will conduct both
places and will doubtless continue
the success that has attended Mr..
Klein through all of his years of
merchandising.
During the interval before the
store changes hands, Mr.. Klein will
conduct a number of sales and very
materially reduce the big stock Of
goods.

There are nearly 500 camps of the
Woodmen in this state and they have
about 10000 members. The num-
Der is increasing steadily. Mr.. Dame
is at the head in the forefront of
this work. In the last three months
he has taken 800 applications, and
says that he believes that in the
time coming he can double this ratio.
He travels all over the state, and
besides his own work directs that of
fourteen deputies. There is little
doubt that the Woodmen are in
creasing in number faster than any
other order in Florida.
Mr.. Dame leaves tomorrow for
Tampa, to carry on big work that
he has planned. He is probably the
greatest fraternal hustler in the
state, and is always on the move.
