surely realize how easy it is for over
a thousand people to get together and
be comfortably seated to witness a
real first class performance. and judg-

nesday evening will witness another
record breaking crowd gathered to-
sgether ito enjoy a real minstrel show.
The majority Of the performers for
this entertainment are real veteran
amateur minstrel artists, and each
and every number has been carefully
selected with the idea of presenting
only such attractions as have actual
merit and can be fairly expected to
meet with the unqualified approval Of
those who have paid their good money
to be entertained, and not for the sole
purpose of merely trying to help any
organization.

This Skin Peeler All
the Rage in Society

There is a growing tendency among
women of culture and fashion to pay
more attention to hygienic means of pre-
serving their charms. The advent Of
mercolized wax doubtless has been large
~ responsible for this. This remarlza-
Die substance produces compilations so
natural in appearance, so magneticalIy
beautiful, artificial complications are no
longer desired. Instead of "doctoring''
an offensive skin, the skin is peeled off.
the wax peels the skin so gradually in
such fine particles, no discomfort is ex-
perienced. The fresher, younger skin be-
neath, wholly in evidence within a week
or two, is lily white, satiny soft and
smooth. It's not a patched-over conn
piexion, but brand new one Thatr
why mercolized wax has become such "a
rage among society folk. The wax is pal
on nights like cold cream and washs6
or mornings All druggists have it; ore
ounce win do.
Another hygienic treatment now much
IN iaVor is one to remove wrinkles mad.
