Why Do French Women
Always Look Young7

In France mothers and daughters
look like sisters. How are the women
there able to retain their youthful looks
until long past middle agef Is it be-
cause they are much given TO the use
Of mercolized wnx3 This wax possesses
a remarkable absorbent property which
quickly removes the fine particles of
cuticle which are constantly dying and
which are the immediate cause Of an
old.looking complexion. Thus the live
lier, healthier, younger skin beneath is
given chance to breathe and show it.
self Most likely It will not require
two weeks to make vour complexion as
clear, soft and beautiful as young
girls. Just one ounce of mercolized
wax (all American druggists have it)
usually does the work. The wax is put
on nights like cold cream and washed
off mornings.
Another valuable secret with which
the French are familiar is how to
quickly remove wrinkles. One ounce
of powdered saxolite dissolved in half
pint witch hazel, makes a marvelously
effective astringent lotion. The face
should be bathed in this daily until
even the deepest lines are affected.

The Markets

LOCAL MARKETS.

The annual mohalr sale took place
at Scio this afternoon too late to get
any figures on the same. There were
some 10000 pounds in the pool as
against 10000 last year. Mohair is
quoted at from 27 to 29icents, and tthe
prices will probably be found to be
between those figures. The wheat
market is quieter and prices unchanged.
A few sales were reported, but all
small. No sales or contracts for hops
were recorded yesterday, and growers

AUDAoIoUs THIEVES PEsTER
MILLER, THE PIANO MAN

R. G. Miller, proprietor of the Miller
Piano House, on State street, is con
vinced that he is the victim of the
most audacious, impeltinent and unique
variety of thieVery that can be in
flicted upon a law-abiding citizen in
the midst of civilization. Had it oc-
cured in Mexico during the lato un.
pleasantness, he would have accepted
it gracefully, but happening in Salem,
he feels nonpulsed, aegrioved, and, in
fact, shocked.
The reason for these various feelings
on the part of Mr.. Miller is that he
went out to his garage the other morn
ing and found that during the night
burglars had entered and had drawn
and carried away about go gallons of
gasoline, which he had in a storage
tank. He is positive that the gasoline
had not leaked out and he is equally
positive that it was in the tank the
night before. Entrance to the garage
was obtained by picking the paddock
on the door. No clue was left.
Mr.. Miller lives at 1857 Marion
street, and several times lately has
been visited by thieves who have
stolen about dozen of his chickens
New locks and other protective de-
vices will in future guard the doors
to both the garage and the CHECKER
house.

Glee club for the musical end of the
program.
Admission tickets to this "Pioneer

managers to make this day one by
which the farmers and the city people
will be brought closer together.

issue by Banker Albert in this morn I
ing's Statesman. Understanding his
broad philanthrophy and self-sacrific-
ing public spirit, am moved almost
to taars at his earnest desire to be al
lowed to pay part Of the expense Of
building the roads through the country.
He is eminently correct, for the city
is Just as much interested in having
good roads through the county as is
the farmer. / read also a few days
ago communication in the Capital
Journal showing there would be rake
off for the banks or whoever got the
money, provided by the sinking fund,
of from $250000 to $350,000. l also
note that Mr.. Albert does not practice
what he breaches, so far as the city
is concerned, and that he has brought
an injunction suit TO prevent the city
collecting pay for pavement laid in
front Of his property. Some one said
long ago "Beware of the Greeks bear
ing gifts" and l am rather shaky as
to accepting Mr.. Albert's apparent
sacrifice of his money on the altar of
duty, at its face value. When he gets
the beam out of the eye he keeps on
the city road improvements, will
take more stock in his efforts to re-
move the mote from the eyes Of the
thoughtless farmer. The eye he sees
the country roads with seems TO havo
an entirely different angle of vision

.PROH|S HOLD MEETING
PASS USUAL RESOLUTIONS AND
VOTES TO SUPPORT CANDI-
DATES OF PARTY.

The prohibitionists of Marion county
held an enthusiastic meeting at the
Salem Commons Mission yesterday
afternoon, and decided to support as a
unit, the candidates of other parties
who had declared in favor of prohibi-
tion and who have pledged themselves
to vote and work for national and state
prohibition. For offices where neither
of the candidates had so pledged them.
selves it was decided to nominate
straight prohibitionists. A county cen
tral committee was appointed as fol-
lows: S. S. Muney, chairman; j. A.
Cook, treasurer, and Miss Constance
Bason, secretary. Eugene W. Chaplin,
twice the party nominee for the presi-
deney, was present and was the prin-
ciple speaker Rev. Hiram Gould, of
Woodburn, and E. E. Taylor, state sec
retary, also spoke. 1t appears from
this that politics will not cut any ice
with the advocates of prohibition, as
the members of the party will support
the men who stand solidly for prohibi-
tion regardless of politics. The senti
ment seems to be that "those who are
not for us are against us" and there
will be no compromise on these.
II The convention will meet again May
Sth, for the purpose of selecting candi
dates for the county ticket, and t.
name candidates of their own wher'
neither Of the other candidates ar,
favorable to prohibition. The stat'
convention meets in Portland May 5th
and there will be large attendance
from Salem and Marion county.
