For Skins Affected
BY Winds and Weather

This is the season when she who
would have spotless, 1ily-white,
satiny complexion should turn her
thoughts to mercolized wax, the firm
friend of the winter girl. Nothing so
effectually overcomes the despoiling
effects of piercing winds and biting
cold temperatures. The wax literally
absorbs the chapped. Redeemed or
coarsened cuticle. bringing forth a
brand new skin, clear, soft and girl
ishly beautiful. An ounce Of mercol-
lied wax, obtafnable at any drug
store, applied nightly like cold cream,
and washed of mornings. will gradu-
ally improve the worst complexion.
She who coddles herself all day in
IN oyerheated house and finds her
skin flushed and fiabby as a conse-
quence, can quickly freshen up for
the evening by just bathing her face
in lotion made by dissolving an
ounce of powdered saxolite in a half
pint witch hazel. She'll find this most
refreshing. 1t smoothes out wrinkles
and draws in the saggy tissue.

A well-known authority states that
stomach trouble and indigestion Is
nearly always due to acidity-acio
stomach-and not, as most folks be-
lieve, from q lack of digestive Juices.
He stated that an excess Of hydro
chloric acid in the stomach retards
digestion and starts food fermenta'

bage in a can, forming acrid fluids
and gases which initiate the stomach
like toy balloon. We then get that
heavy. lumpy feeling in the chest, we
eructate sour food, belch gas, or have
fatulence, water-brash. OF
nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all diges-
tive aids and instead, get from any
pharmacy four ounces of Jad Saits
and take tablespoonful in glass
OF water before breakfast while It Is
effervescing, and furthermore, to con.
tinue this for one week. While reiiel
follows the first dose, 1t Is important
to neutralize the acidity, remove the
mass, start the liver, sim.
ulate the kidneys and thus promote
a free now OF pure digestive juices.

For Skin Blotches

There is one remedy that seldom fails
to clear away all pimples, blotches and
other skin eruptions and that makes the
skin soft, clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with
zemo, which generally overcomes all
skin diseases. Acne, eczema, itch, pim-
pies, rashcs, black heads in most cases
give way to zemo. Frequently, minor
blemishes disappear overnight. Itching
usually stops instantly. Zemo is safe,
antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. 1t costs only 25c; an extra
large bottle, $l00 1t will not stain, Is
not greasy or sticky and is positiv =

WASHINGTON, Nov s.-Full In
formation regarding the torpedoins
Yesterday OF the British passenger
liner Arab is awaited at the state de-
partment with concern. There mas
been no report indicating that Ameri-
cans were on board the vessel, but the
announcement of the British admiral =.
ty that a ship carrying hundreds OF
passengers, including women and emil
dren, had been destroyed without
warning added seriousness to the suu-
marine questions now pending.
If it should develop that the Arabia
carried no Americans the United
States probably would take no official
notice of the incident, although tha
deepest interest void be felt because
of the possibility that 1t might mean
a change in Germany's methods or
submarine warfare.
A brief cablegram from Ambassador
Page ut London late today announced
the sinking of the liner 1t made no
mention OF Americans on board. In
the absence OF Secretary Lansing, VINO
will not return to Washington until
tomorrow, no formal comment on the
case was forthcoming.
