Fl, MADISON IS
To RETAIN MAYOR
A. p. Brown, In Response to Appeal
From Citizens, Withdraws His
Letter and Gives Town
Christmas Present.
HIS ACTION IS APPROVED
People In NeishborIno Town Are
Said to be JubiIant Over the
Change Of Front by
Executive.
HIS ACTION IS APPROVED

Continued pressure brought to
bear upon Mayor A. P. Brown by in
fluential citizens eventually succeed
ed in moving him to consent to the
withdrawal of his letter Of resigna-
ton as mayor as a Christmas pres
ent to the city of Fort Madison, says
the Democrat in its Friday issue.
And as such the townspeople consider
it, for the action OF Mr.. Brown in con-
templating retiring from public life
had perpetrated the most general Of
movements to have him retain the
office, the majority of citizens ex-
pressing the feeling that not another
man in Fort Madison could quite fill
the position SO acceptable at this
time.
In answer to telegram dispatched
today by the Democrat to Mr.. Brown
at Marshalltown, Iowa, where he will
spend the Christmas holiday with his
daughter, the reply was elicited, that
If he could be convinced that the
majority desire his retention of the
office" he would remain. This is
equivalent to tacit consent for never
have the people of Fort Madison
been so anxious to have man stay
in Office and never more implicit
faith and confidence reposed in a
public officer in Fort L.adison.
Mr. Brown during the several years
of his tenure of office has expended
much time, energy and money for
the betterment of the city and TO
him much credit is due for the adj
vancement of the municipality today
along lines of progress. His recon-
sideration of his resignation means
that he will continue in public life
and be actively connected with all
movements In the city, in conse-
Quence, as has been the case for SO
many years.
The action Of the mayor In decid-
ing to remain in office dispells the
feeling Of uncertainty as to who the
most likely person would be to take
the vacated Office. The visits of citi-
zens to try persuasion on Mr.. Brown
were most frequent and he has per-
sonally been assured Of the good will
of many on such meetings. No doubt
the attitude of these people did
much in influencing Mr.. Brown In
making his decision.

Ho.u to Peel off
Wectherbedten Face

It's really a simple matter to reno
vate a face soiled by dirt, wind or
cold. Ordinary mercolized wax, used
like cold cream, will transform the
worst old complexion into one Of
snowy whiteness and ,elvety soft
ness. 1t literally peels off the outer
veil of surface skin, but so gently,
gradually, there's no discomfort. The
wornout skin comes off, not in
patches, but evenly, in tiny particles.
leaving no evidence of the treatment.
The younger, healthier under-skin
forming the new complexion is one
CT captivating loneliness. One ounce
Of mercolized wax, to be had at any
drug store, is enough to remove any
coarse, chapped, pimpled, freckled.
faded or sallow skin. Apply before
retiring, washing it off mornings.
Many skins wrinkle easily with
every wind that blows. An excellent
wrinkleremover, because it tightens
the skin and strengthens relaxed
muscles, is wash lotion made as
follows: Powdered saxolite. l o., dis
solved in witch hazel, one-half pint.
This gives immediate results.
