T0.DAY'S BEAUTY
SUGGESTIONS

Face powder simply covers up an
unattractive complexion and leaves
no lasting benefits. Those who
have tried Il simple spurmax face
lotion find II much better, as it re-
moves skin discoiorations, such as
freckles and tan. and makes the
skin smooth. white and velvety
This lotion is made by dissolving
four ounces of spurmax in one-half
pint hot water. then adding two tea
spoonfuls glycerin This complex
Ion beau;iiicr does not rub off or
show like powder, and gives n more
refined appearance. 1t removes both
shininess and sallowness, rapidly
giving the skin permanent
healthy, youthful appearance.
An especially fine shampoo for
this weather can be had at trifling
expense by dissolving a teaspoonful
of canthroX in a cup of hot water.
Pour slowly on scalp and massage
briskly. This creates soothing.
cooling lather that dissolvcs and re-
moves all dandruff. excess oil and

the hair takes on a glossy richness
of natural color, also nuffiness
which makes IL seem very much

TO HIGHEST COURT

A writ of error to the Supreme

against the attorneys for Wells Far
go. The order granting the writ
was signed by Chief Justice Norcross
and has been forwarded to Washing
ton, where it viii be entered on the
Supreme court docket, says the Car
son News.
1t is probable that the case will not
come up for argument before the Su-
preme court of the United States be
fore the next October term.
The suit will be test of the con
stitutionality of the state law taxing
the right of the express company to
do business in this state. The amount
due in taxes, claimed by Humboldt
county, is $694,53. The District court
Judge +. A. Quicker presiding, held
that the taxes were legally collect
able and the Supreme court of the
state in long opinion written by
Chief Justice Norcross, sustained the
District court.
