Real Wonder-WOrker
For Wrinkled Faces

Those who have tried all sorts of
so-called wrinkle-removers' in a
vain effort to lose those unwelcome
traces of age, illness or worry, can
scarcely find words to express their
delight with the wonderful saXolite
formula. once they have given 1t a
trial The success of this method
is du. not alone to its marvellous eff
fectiveness-upon the deepest lines
and crows-feet, as well as upon the
very fine ones-but also to it's sur
prisingly quick action and its entire
harmlessness. It's simplicity and its
fnexpensivenes are other commend
able features, for one needs only
dissolve an ounce of powdered saXo-
lite in a half pint witch hazel, and
battle the face in this solution. At
once a remarkable transformation Is

when the point of the strip is
fastened with a bit of paste.
This makes a long shuttle
shaped bead thick in the middle
and tapering at the ends. When
all of the beads are finished, they
are given a coat of white varnish
and set aside to dry thoroughly.
Then they are strung on fine
strong double cord alternately
with glass beads or bugles, just as
bamboo porfiers are put to-
gethef.
White and gold beads are usu-
ally employed, although any
color may be chosen. The string
ing begins with loop of the
beads, which finishes the ends of
the strands when the portiere is
in place. When the strands are
completed they are hung by loops
to tiny hooks set into the door
frame, or to a light rod cut to
fit the door.

HOUSEWIVES LEARN
HOW MANY THINGS
TACOMA PRODUCES

Tacoma housewives are
learning something new this
week by watching the big
window displays in the
downtown stores.
They are learning that
practically everything of do
nestle and household use,
from kltchenware to bed
steads and from spices to
flour, is manufactured right
here in Tacoma.
They are finding articles
in the windows with the
"Made-in-Tacoma" label that
they never dreamed was man
featured west of the Missis-
sipDi river.
The Home Trade league
is enthusiastic over the Win
dow Display week, declaring
that Tacomans are learning
more this week about Taco
ma-made goods than ever be-
fore.
Among the articles on dis
play. made in Tacoma, are
furniture, mattresses, spring
beds, cigars, tents, spices,
groceries, flour. home-roast-
ed coffee, overalls, shoes,
carpets, rugs. jewelry, shirts,
clothing, stockings, candy,
biscuits, flour and foodstuffs.
