An Instantaneous
Wrinkle Remover

The average woman is always sur
prised to learn, after experimenting
with all sorts of patent so-called
wrinkle removers," that the most eff
fective remedy in the world is simple
face wash which she can make herself
at home in a jiffy.
She has only to get an ounce of pure
powdered saxolite from her nearest
druggist and dissolve it in half pint
of witch hazel. Apply this refreshing
solution to the face every day for
awhile The result is charming-mar-
velous Even after the very first
treatment the wrinkles show less
plainly and the face has a nice, firm,
comfortable feeling that is thoroughly
delightful and lends self-confidence in
ones appearance. This harmless
home remedy is used by thousands of
women to obliterate the unwelcome
traces of time.

MOORING EXPLAINS
 H. c. ALIENS VISIT
Was Simply to Discuss Certain Fca- lures of Tax Commission Work
 in Alabama

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
 In a recent issue of The Age Herald there appeared a special from Montgom- cry stating that MT. H. C. Allen was here in consultation with the commission re- garding proposed increases in Jefferson county. The visit of Mr Allen to Mont gomery was not for this purpose, and the statement referred to may have created wrong impression in the minds of the taxpayers of Birmingham.
 MT. Aliens visit was for the purpose of talking over some features of the work being done in the Birmingham office of the commission. That office was estab- iished for the purpose of gathering in- formation generally touching the value of mineral properties in Alabama and does not affect Jefferson county any more than 1t does any other county in the northern part of the state As a matter of fact, the work so far done by the Birmingham office has been done in coun- ties other than Jefferson.
 It is the desire of this commission that assessments be handled by local authori- ties and that it's work can be limited to rendering such assistance as will enable local authorities to assess property at values fair alike to the taxpayer and to the state. The commission does not pur- pose going to any county in the state where there is regularly appointed tax commissioner. unless this course is made necessary to sustain the Just findings of county tax commissioners. Should this necessity arise, it will, of course. he the duty of the commission, as provided by law. to endeavor to see that reasonable assessments are made. Yours very truly.
