HAVE A LUXURIOUS BATH.

Y IVES there a woman who does not
 want luxurious bath occasionally. a bath with something in it that leaves the skin soft, smooth. white and scent ed? If so, she makes a great mistake. for there is nothing more potent for beauty purposes than the all over warm bath When it has something sweet in it. something you know is go- ing to improve your looks, it acts like a charm. for both the senses and the imagination count with beautifytng tricks.

CAPITAL AND LABOR BENEFIT.

When the Brunswick-Balke-Co -Collen-

its intention Of disseminating the man
ufacture Of bar fixtures. because there
was no longer demand for them
since prohibition had closed SO many
saloons. the liquor press sent up Q
howl declaring that prohibition had
thrown hundreds Of men employed by
this company out Of work. Investiga-
tion has shown. however, that the
company had received immense orders
for Edison phonograph cases and sim
liar work and that not one man has
been discharged as q result for the
diversion Of the work into different
channels. Not only this. but 1t Is
asserted that the number of men en-
ployed will be increased rather than
diminished. and the change is general
ly considered by business men OF Du.

THE NEWEST REMEDY FOR
BACKACIE, RHElJNlA ATISM AND DROPSY

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid trou-
bles bring misery to many. When
the kidneys are weak or diseased,
these natural filters do not cleanse
the blood sufficiently. and the poisons
are carried to all parts Of the body.
There follow depression, aches and
pains, heaviness, drowsiness. frrita-

matism. In some people there arc sharp
pains in the back and loins. distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obsti-

forms into gravel or kidney stones.

It is stated that the taxpayers OF

many thirst pariors have closed their
doors and paid OF their help the
courts have taken q semivacation."

briate and insane asylums have taken
down the Standing Room Only signs
and report that business is falling on
something fierce. The levy for the
state institution fund has been re-
duced for the first time in the history
Of Polk county. Last year the levy
was / mill. Now It Is 8 mills, differ-
ence of 2 mills. The levy for court
expense has been reduced 8 mills.
Last years figure was mills This
year It is 81 mills. The net reduc-
ton for the two funds amounts to half
q mill or $4,000.
County officials explain the reduc-
tion in the court expense levy by the
fact that dry conditions have greatly
reduced the number OF cases. When
the saloons were running on all six

were OF the intoxication variety. With

BUSINESS N CANADA
IS GOOD
Successful Crops and Big Yields
Help the Railway.

The remarkable fields that are re-
ported OF the wheat crop Of Western
Canada for 1915 bear out the esti-
three western provinces of upward Of
rs bushels per acre. There is NO
portion Of that great west of $4,000
square miles in which the crop was
not good and the yields abundant. An
American farmer who was induced to
place under cultivation land that he
had been holding for i've years for
speculative purposes and higher
prices. says that he made the price of
the land out of this years crop Of
oats. No doubt, others, too, who took
the advice Of the Department OF the
Interior to cultivate the unoccupied
land, have done as we'll.
But the story of the great crop that
Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta
produced this year is best told in the
language OF the railways in the added
cars that 1t has been necessary to
place in commission, the extra trains
required to be run. the increased ton.
mage OF the grain steamers.
1t is found that railway earnings
continue to improve.
The c. P. R. earnings for the second
week Of October showed an increase
Of $4,000 over last year. the total
being only $4,000 below the gross
earnings Of the Corresponding week
Of 1913. when the Western wheat crop
made q new record for that date. The
increase in C. P. r. earnings for the
corresponding week of that year was
only $1,000. or less than half of the
increase reported this year. The
grain movement In the West within
the past two weeks has taxed the re-
sources Of the Canadian roads -
never before, despite their increased
facilities. The C. P. r. is handling 1000
cars per day. new record. The
G. T. R. and the C. N. r. are also max.
ing new shipment records. The other
day the w. Grant Morden, of the Can.
ada Steamships Company, the largest
freighter Of the Canadian feet on the
Upper Lakes, brought down q cargo of
/ 476,315 bushels, a new record for
Canadian shipping. Records are go
ing by the board" in all directions this
fall, due to Canada's record crop. The
largest Canadian wheat movement
through the port OF New York ever
known is reported for the period up
to October 18th. when since shipments
of the new crop began in August,
4,265.7s1 bushels have been reloaded
for England. France and Italy. This
is over half as much as was shipped
of American wheat from the same port
in the same period. And, be 1t remem-
bered. Montreal, not New York, is tho
main export gateway for Canadian
wheat. New York gets the overflow
in competition with Montreal.-Ad-

WHAT Is THE MATTER7

AS one state after another outlaws
the drink traffic the astonished liquor
men ask. What's the matter, any
way?" That question is easily an
swered. The thing that's all wrong is
liquor itself. and the people are find
ing 1t out. The dispensary plan: the
high license plan; the government
owned saloon: the family liquor store;
Sunday closing; early closing: strict
supervision; abolishment Of free
lunch. music, tables and games; the
system Of having only one saloon to
SO many population; local option-all
of these are mere subterfuges. They
are quack remedies. They do not go
to the root Of the evil which Is liquor
itself. The only cure for the liquor
evil is the complete prohibition Of its
manufacture and sale in the whole ma
tion.-Kansas City (Mo.) Times.

the little white beds upstairs, the

Simplicity is the keynote of the

to be kept clean and to look clean

front hall and it is hoped these will be
supplied within few days.
Our most important wants are

any other linen," said Mrs. Linton,
the visiting nurse who took up her
residence at the nursery with Miss
Fuller, the other visiting nurse, and
Mrs. PILE. the matron Of the nursery
"Everything is to be washable !
believe that is the most satisfactory
way"
Mrs. Linton said arrangements will
be made so the children can spend
much Of their time in the back yard,
half of which will be garden.
There are four rooms, a. pantry and
a large open summer kitchen down
stairs, and upstairs are the rooms of
those In charge, two inside sleeping
rooms Of cool temperature for babies
and a sleeping porch where some of
the babies will take maps each day.

GIRL PULLS RIBBON
WHICH SENDS DEATH
TO REJECTED Lover

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, April 81
Ymily Wheeler, debutante and daugh-
ter OF wealthy Bridgeport banker, is
prostrated today because she unwit-
tingly sent to his death the man who
loved her and who had been engaged
to her Arthur Hearn Cowl, % years
old, grandson and heir of the late null
timillionaire merchant, George A.
Hearn, is the dead youth.
After brief conference the girl had
3eturned the engagement ring to the
south. He quietly accepted the break
ing of the engagement, and smilingly
asked her to pull a ribbon that hung
from the breast pocket Of his coat.
What will happen them" asked
Miss Wheeler.
Pull it and see," said the quietly
smiling youth. 1T is surprise l
have for you"
Playfully the girl did as he asked.
A moment later she reeled back in hor-
ror as the crack Of a pistol sounded
from beneath his coat. and the youth
sank to the ground with moan. An
hour later he died. 1t is supposed that
he concealed the weapon under his
coat and possibly pointed it with one
hand while smilingly handing the girl
Aae ribbon with the other.
