TODAY'S BEAUTY
SUGGESTIONS

Face powder simply covers up an
unattractive complexion and leaves
no lasting benefits. Those who have
tried a simple spurmax face lotion
find it much better, as it removes skin
discolorations, such frackles and
tan, and makes the skin smoth white
and velvety. This lotion IS made by
dissolving four ounces of spurmax in
one-half pint hot water, then adding
two teaspoonfuls glycerin. This COM
plexion beautified does not rub off or
show like powder. and gives a more
refined appearance. 1t removes both
shininess and sallowness, rapidly CIV
ing the skin a permanent healthy,
youthful appearance.
An especially fine shampoo for this
weather can be had at trifling expense
by dissolving a teaspoonful of can
throx in a cup of hot water Pour
slowly on scalp and massage briskly
This creates a soothing, cooling 1ath-
er that dissolves and removes all dan
druff, excess oil and dirt. Rinsing
leaves the scalp spotlessly clean, soft
and plant, while the hair takes on a
glossy richness of natural color, also
a fluffiness which makes it seem very
much heavier than it is. After a can
throX shampoo arranging the hair is a
pleasure.-Adv.

Large Producer.

| Ogallah, Kan, June 15.-The larg-
est wheat raiser in Trego county, IN
1914, is Jacob Frank, president OF the
Farmers elevator at this place he
sowed to wheat 1880 acres and
threshed $4,000 bushels. This year he
has in wheat 1850 acres. He thinks
it will make three-fourthS of crop.
He has 5000 bushels of his old crop
on hand.
w. A. Tawney, a business man here,
IS another large wheat raiser. In 191
he threshed 900 bushels He has
500 acres of wheat this year, all IN
fine condition. Mr.. Tawney says he
made the same mistake hundreds of
others did in selling his 1914 crop too
early.
The Farmers elevator is making
substantial improvements to handle
the crop of wheat this year. This
elevator has met with success. The
plant is valued at $4,000. 1t recent
ly paid dividend of $4,000 to the 80
stockholders, and has sufficient funds
in the treasury to carry on the bust
ness this year. The elevator company
is incorporated and the stock all tax
en-. The officers are: Jacob Frank,
president; Sanford Powers, vice pres1-
dent; William Brabb, secretary; E.
Lindberg, treasurer. S. N. Nixon Is
manager.
w. A. Tawney has been one of the
live wires in Ogallah. He is proud to
live in a little western Kansas town
where the three elevators handled
more than $50 cars of wheat of the
1914 CROP His wife has been in the
employ of the Union Pacific as agent
and operator for % years. For the
last s years she has been the station
agent here.
Ogallah is thrifty little town in
Trego county. 1t is surrounded by a
fertile country, in the wheat belt in
western Kansas 1t has three ele-
vators three stores, hardware and i'm
plements, bank and lumber yard. Mr..
and Mrs. c. c. Yetter are pioneers of
the town and county, homesteading
in 1879. They own $40 acres.
Mr.. Yetter built the first house
which was occupied for boarding and
lodging.
In the hard years of crop failures
they struggled on, never failing to ex-
tend a helping hand. Here is their
home, and Oga1iah' is the town where
they will remain permanently.

procurable at any drug store, completely
absorbs a bad complexion, revealing the
healthy young skin underneath. Its work
is done so gradually, day by day, that no

piled at night, like cold cream, and re-
moved in the morning with soap and water.
