SIMPLE WAY TO GET
RID OF BLACKHEADS

There is one simple. safe and sure
way that never fails to get rid of
blackheads and that is to dissolve them.
To do this get about two ounces of
plain powdered neroxin from any drug
store-sprinkle little or a hot, wet
sponge-rub over the blackheads brisk
ly-wash the parts and you will be sur
prised how the b1ackheads have disap-
peared. Big blackheads. little black
heads, no matter where they are,
simply dissolve and disappear. leaving
the parts without anY mark whatever.
Blackheads are simply a mixture OF
dust and dirt and secretions from the
body that form in the pores of the
skin. Pinching and squeezing only
cause Irritation, make large pores and
do not get them out after they become
hard. The powdered neroxin and the
water simply dissolve the blackheads so
they wash right out. leaving the pores
free and clean and In their natural con-
ditfon. Anyone troubled with these
uhsightly bl; mishes should certainly
try this simple method.-Advcrtisem

Good Holiday
"Then there is the holiday feature
of the carnival which alone should
justify its permanency. The carnival
is a great breaker of monotony. It
brings the business men and the peo-
pie Of the surrounding country to-
gether for three days Of recreation
and amusement. It furnishes them
an opportunity for becoming better
acquainted. And when the people of
a community become better acquainted
they form new and better opinions Of
the other fellow. Factional feeling,
personal dislikes and prejudices are
overcome and gradually the contend
ing forces in the community are har-
monized and the general welfare is
materially benefited. Because Of its
holiday value I do not believe the cit
izens Of Kennewick can afford to
abandon the Grape Carnival"
