FRECKLE

Don't Hide Them With Veil; Remove
Them With the Othine Prescription.
This prescription for the removal Of
freekles was written by prominent
physician and is usually so successful
in removing freckles and giving a
clear, beautiful complexion that it is
sold under guarantee to refund the
money if it fails.
Don't hide your frechles under a
veil; get an ounce of othiue and re-
move them. Even the first few appli-
cations should show wonderful i'm
provement, some of the lighter freck-
les vanishing entirely.
BE sure to ask the druggist for the
double strength othine; it is this that
is sold on the money-back guarantee.

CALIFORNIA GIRLS EAT
 NOTHING BUT COOLERS

BERKELY, Calif., Nov. 20.-Liv- ing on nothing but peanuts for three months is the feat just performed by two University of California CO., eds. The two girls were acting un- der instructions from Prof. M. E. Jaffa, head of the department of nu- triton, who carried on the experi- ment to test his theory that peanuts are among the best and most con centrated foods available for humans.
 The experiment was complete scientific success.
 We never felt better" said one of them, who insisted that their names be kept secret. But I'll never eat another peanut; I can't bear the sight of them pow."
 The peanuts cost each girl l6 cents . day, or 3l,t0 week. This cut their expenses down to sA.ao a month, breaking the record for fru' gaiity on the campus.

 BEFORE CABRERA
EVOLVE NEW SCHEME TAXATION
Has Been Warned by Administration Officials that the Levying of Con. fiscatory Taxes Will Not Be Toler- ated by United States.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Nov. 20.- Chairman Cabrera of the Mexican Commission, upon whom has been placed the burden of evolving new tax schemes for the financing of the Mexican government, has been warn ed by the administration officials that confiscatory taxes levied against the American and foreign interests in Mexico will not be tolerated, and will be suicidal to Mexico.

PARIS, Nov. 20.-Advices received here today from the Macedonian front state that the Serbs and French have taken Monastir from the Bulga- rians and Germans after hard fight ing. The Allies successes west of Cerna have been so advantageous that they have caused the Bulgars and Teutons to abandon the Kenali line of defenses, heretofore consider ed invulnerable to frontal attacks. The threatening of the Teuton fine of retreat is responsible for the aban- donment of this line which was forti- fled strongly, some of the trenches being 30 feet deep.
 The city of Ochrida, 70 west of Monastir is now threatened and will soon fall into the hands of the Allies, permitting a junction of the French and Serbians with the Italian troops in Albania.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 20.- It is becoming more and more appar- ent that the great railroad strike which threatened before the passage of the Adamson law, is by no means settled, and that it may assume even greater proportions than originally. It is believed that the Democratic leaders may appeal to congress and that President Wilsonn will insist on the passage of full anti-strike legisla- tion, as submitted at the August con- vention of the American Federation. The United States Chamber of Com merce, insession here, opposes the passage of such legislation.

ON DEPORTING OF BELGIANS
State Department Points Out that
 Russia Took Similar Steps in East Prussia During the Early Stages of the War.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 20.- It is extremely doubtful if the United States can take any action in the pe- tition of the Belgian minister to in- tervene in behalf of the Belgian citi- zens whom the Germans are reported to be deporting to Germany to work. The State Department points out that this action is possibly preliminary to the evacuation of a portion of Bel. gium by the Germans, and is similar to the action taken by Russia when that country deported many of the residents of East Prussia, when the Russians occupied that country at an early period of the war.
