HOW l TOOK MY
WRINKLES OUT
London Society Lady Tells How She Re-
moved Her Wrinkles After Massage
and Beautx Doctors Hnd Failed

Trouble, worry and i'll health brought
me deep lines and wrinkles. Realizing
that they marred my appearance and
made me look much older, l bought
various brands of cold creams. lotions,
etc, and was even treated by an expen-
sive Beauty Specialist; yet my wrinkles
simple would not go. One day friend
who had travelled extensively in France
told me of an old French Beauty Secret
which tried with most astonishing re-
suits. In a few days my wrinkles were
entirely gone. l have explained the
method, which is as follows, to many of
my friends who have used 1t with the
same magical results. The. process con-
sists of laying warm cloth on the face
each night for about half minute and
then when the cloth is removed a little
ordinary amonized cocoa cream is ap-
This is left on for about two minutes
the skin is wiped off with a soft dry
cloth. Not more than 8 minutes is re-
quired for this simple operation. yet
one treatment will show you most as
tonishing results.
No word short of Marvellous" can ex-
plain how young and fresh this will
make a woman look. l am sure that any
lady with wrinkles can easily MAKE
herself look from 10 to 20 years
younger. Any good druggist can supply
you with pure amonized coca cream and
It is so easy to apply that you cannot
help but wonder at its remarkable ac.
ton. These treatments are also fine
for the complexion as they nourish the
skin keeping it fair, pink and healthy

HE ENyIEs HAPPY PEOPLE

The stage stopped at Fifty-siXth
street and two beautiful beings swung
aboard. They were male, they were
young, they were blithe, they were i'm
measurably pleased with themselves
and with the world at large. One was
tall and one was short. One was fat
and one was lean: but, aside from a
few such minor details, they were du-
plicates-silk hats, patent feathers,
pearl-color neck muffiers, self-satis-
faction and all.
The man in the corner tried to sneer
at their complacency and found him
self envying them. He was not more
than q few years their senior, but
never, never in all his hard working
life had he been as young, as irrespon-
sible, as boyish as those two. He had
the silk hat, he had the patent leath-
ers, he had the pearl muffler, but not
a vestige of the beaming self f-satisfac-
tion hung around him. His keen eyes
with their trick of lids narrowed, as
against blazing southern sun, had
reckless CLINT in their grayness, but
the recklessness was not carelessness,
and the thin brown face with it's stub
born chin and flexible, sensitive lips
was young without being boyish. -

Bethlehem and Carnegie
Steel Get Armor Awards
For Four New Battleships

Washington, Nov. 21.-Armor nIate
contracts aggregating $6,S2s,O9s were
yesterday awarded by the Navy De-
partment to the Carnegie Steel Com
pany of Pittsburgh. The Bethlehem
Steel Company was awarded a CON
tract for virtually the same amount.
Colorado, Maryland, Washington and
west Virginia, authorized at the last
session of Congress. The prices to be
paid are considerably lower than were
paid for the armor for the dread
naught Pennsylvania. Secretary
Daniels said to-day that as a result
or his protest against the identical
the Pennsylvania's armor a saving Of
S1,11O,0S4 had been effected for the
government. A further saving of
about $2,000,000, he said, would be
made on these four new ships.

CLEAN UP YOUR ORCHARD

IN the November ISSUE Of Farm and
Fireside a writer says:
"Too many farmers, progressive in
most respects, who raise orchard
fruits do not practice having a thor
ough and general cleaning up of the
orchard before winter closes in.
Brush piles, heaps of leaves, rub
bish along the fence rows and un-
salable fruit are allowed to remain in
the orchard until spring before being
burned or otherwise disposed of.
Nearly all the insect pests that make
trouble for the orchard owner take
advantage of everything in the nature
of rubbish in which to spend the win
ter. Time spent late in the fall clear
ing everything that will harbor insects
is a profitable fight when the enemy
is taken at disadvantage"
