It's wonderful to look beautiful and

who at seventy years of age possesses
a marvelously soft, smooth, velvet-like
skin and almost girl-like complexion,
without a wrinkle in sight told the

owed 1t all to the discovery of skin
osmosis. With this marvellous discov-

banished in three nights in many in

colored complexion as fresh as daisy.

by this wonderful simple method.
No matter what your age or what
you have tried unsuccessfully, skin
osmosis will positively bring you new
beauty and youth. Merely wash your
face In warm water at night and rub
in teaspoonful or two of any good
pure roseated cream, which you can
obtain from your druggist. In the
morning wash the face with cold water
and rub in more cream.
In three weeks or less watch the

claimed by the dispenser "to make

is significant that the mixtures were
positively identified as whiskey by only
one man who tested them by the olfac-
tory nerve, Col. Kittredge Haskins,
probably because he has been a con
gresham and federal office holder. It
was to be expected that a newspaper
man, to whom the mixtures were re
ferred, could not tell from the smell as
to whether they were intoxicants or
not. But exceeding strange was the
lack of positive knowledge on the sub
ject displayed by a lawyer, and he is
suspected of disseminating.

(Iron Trade Review

tIIoH 1Idue heN1oW
Shipments of iron, steel and other
commodities for export and to CON
sumers in New England states have
been uncertain and irregular for sew
eral months because of congested traf-
fic conditions. Many manufacturing
companies, not self-contained, have
suffered actual losses through inability
to obtain material necessary for the
manufacture of their products Rail-
road carriers, almost without excep-
tion. have been enforced to declare
embargoes against the shipment of all
commodities, except livestock and per-
ishable goods, in eastern territory.
Steamship docks, railroad yards and
sidings have been jammed with light
e rage for several months. Relief has
been promised but it has failed to
come.
Industrial and railroad traffic men
for the last few months have puzzled
their brains to serve American and for
eign trade to the best of their ability
Railroad men say domestic buyers and
sellers would not suffer if it were not
for the tremendous tonnages of mate
rial routed to the seaboard for export
In other words, trunk line carriers
could easily cope with the situation if
it We're not for the abnormal export
trade which our country has enjoyed
since Europe became war-ridden. To
take care of American consumers, rail
road managers have been forced to
place embargoes against the shipment
of most commodities for export. This
benefited our interests to a consider
able extent, since manufacturers have
diverted material made for foreign
shipment to domestic concerns. Mum
erous riffs have appeared in the clouds
the last so days, but no definite relief
/ is in sight.
| Primarily, congestion along the east
/ ern seaboard has been caused by the
| inability of export shippers to obtain
vessel space, which has caused manu-
/ facturers far inland to suffer. The
establishment Of an American mer
chant marine, to handle American
trade, would bring certain relief tc
shippers and consumers, dependent up
on railroad carriers, whose main lines
yards and sidings have been used fol
warehouse purposes the last few
months. Until American law maker:
realize the necessity of an American
merchant marine, our industries, nov
fighting for firm grip upon the com
merce of the world, not only will b'
temporarily handicapped, but they vii
suffer permanently.

Believes in Compulsory Service.
bennington Banner.)

Brattleboro is trying to fill the
ranks of its military company and is
not making much Roadway. Benning-
ton and Barre lost their companies be-
cause of lack of interest and nearly
every company in the state is short of
men and headed toward dissolution un-
less there is a revival of interest. In
the meantime it is seriously proposed
at Washington to safeguard the coun-
try by an extension of the national
guard system. One need not go out
side, of Vermont to know that the plan
is not feasible except at an expense
that would be prohibitive. Compulsory
military service is the only measure
that will provide genuine preparedness
in this country. Halfway measures will
produce only halfway results. Com
pulsory service, however, can be pro-
vided in a way that will not be burden
some. unduly expensive or extensively
militaristic.
