To Haze Perfect Skin
Throughout the Summer

These days the face needs special
care and attention. Flying dust ana
dirt, the beating sun, are severe on
any skin. Their despoiling, effects are
best overcome by the application OF
pure mercolized wax. This keeps SKIN
and pores in a cleanly condition, the
complexion beautifully white and spot
less. Discolored, freckled and rough-
ened cuticie are actually absorbed by
il. One ounce of mercolized wax, OBJ
tainable at any drug store, is sutnclent
to completely renovate sotled com
pleXion. 1t is used like cold cream, al,
lowed to remain on over night ana
washed off in the morning.
AS the skin tends to expand in warm
good astringent lotion should be used.
Dissolve / OF. powdered saxolite in u
during the heat of the day or before
going out for theater or social affair:
1t is a remarkable skin tightener and
wrinkle eraser-Advertisem

State Fire Marshal G. Chal Port,
who recently took the oath of office, is
now on the job and giving his personal
attention to the details of his position.
Mr. Port, who has been captain of
the pennsylvania Railroad police de-
partment for number of years, and
who Is highly regarded by the officials
and employees of the great "Pennsy''
system has been granted a furlough
during the term of his incumbency as
FIRE Marshal. 1t Is known that Gem
eral superintendent Creighton and
other officials regarded the severance
OF his connection with the company
with regret and finally induced him to
accept furlough so that he may re-
turn to his post at the expiration of
his term in the State service.
There is no more popular man on
all the railroad lines in this State and
elsewhere than Chal Port. His asso-
ciates in the railroad police depart
ment will hail the day when he returns
TO MS place and many of them eX-
pressed the hope that he would not
accept Governor Brumbaugh's ap-
polntment. All manner of compli-
ments have been paid him by his asso-
ciates and as a token of their regard
he was presented with a handsome
watch, suitably engraved. The watch
was piS9eHISu III Dellal1 OF the force
by Lieutenant !. w. Carroll at Hunt
ington, on the Fourth. f. P. Earnest
has been promoted to lieutenant to
fill the vacancy caused by the advance
ment of Lieutenant Carroll.
Fire Marshal Port has had the privi-
lege of escorting many distinguished
men in their tours over the railroad
lines and he tells many interesting
stories of his experiences in the per-
Torrance of this work. He is going to
be just as popular on Capitol Hill as
he has always been in the railroad
service.

lumber consuming concerns in New
York, Pennsylvania and New England
States joined to-day in complaint to
the Interstate Commerce Commission

HOMECOMING LISTS
COMPLETE THIS WEEK

Only two more days remain for the
homecoming committees to finish
their list of names and everyone who
is expecting to send the names of for
mer residents of the tri-cities into the
headquarters of the Fort Armstrong
Centennial association is urged to do
so by return mail, as the lists will be
closed on Thursday. The office of
the association has been one of the
busiest places in the three cities dur
ing the last two weeks, force of extra
clerks having been engaged in listing
the various names and checking them
TO avoid Implications. By Thursday
night, however, it is thought that
many thousands of names will have
been added to the subscription lists of
the tri-city papers and that thousands
Of persons will be receiving the diff
ferent publications telling them of
the attractions that will be staged
during centennial week, June 1926.
The flower stores that will be open
ed for the convenience of the women
or the trl-cities and vicinity are ex-
pected to be ready by the first of next
week, according to Director General
Benson, and many suggestions and
designs for the decoration of motor
cars will be issued from the stores.
The stock for these stores will come
direct from the factories and the men
in charge Of the stores will be able to
inform the owners of cars, by means
OF photographs and suggestions as to
the various effects to be secured 10
make a showing in the floral parade
Several hundred photographs of var
oous decorations will be on hand and
the owners of the cars will be able To
use these and enlarge upon them if
desired
Dlrector-General Benson has ex-
pressed the hope that the owners of
cars will decorate their own cars in
stead of employing outside decora-
tors, as the personal work in arrang-
ing the decorations by the owner. he
believes. is Of much greater satisfac-
ton than that Of persons who are
merely hired TO get the effect.
