Women! It's Cheap!
Use Lemon Juice
and Make Lotion

To kesS your skin and complexion
naturally soft, white and clear at all
times you simply must use a lotion
or cream every day. But choose the
one that is best and costs the least.
The juice of two fresh lemons
strained into a bottle containing a
whole quarter pint of the most re-
markable beauty lotion at about the
cost one must pay for a small jar OF
the ordinary cold creams. Care should
be taken to strain the lemon juice
through a fine cloth SO no lemon pulp
gets in. then this lotion will keep
fresh for months. Every woman
knows that lemon juice is used to
bleach and remove such blemishes as
freckles, sallowness and tan, and is
the ideal skin softener, smoothener
and beautifier.
Just try this lotion! Make up q
quarter pint OF this sweetly fragrant
cream and massage it into the face.
neck, arms and hands. 1t should nat
urally help to whiten. soften, freshen.
and bring out the hidden roses and
! beauty of any skin.
Your druggist will sell three ounces
OF orchard white at little cost and
any grocer will supply the lemons

A banker who was told that Charles

most forceful speakers ever heard at a
banquet table, said he believed it. and
then told this story:
About the time that Schwab was

arrangements with Piiny Fisk of New
York, to handle the bonds, he went
over to New York, and, of course, was
entertained at dinner. There he
made one Of his most forceful utter
ances. Mr.. Fisk was moved 10 such
an extent that he said to Mr. Schwab:
''.Ehat will sell the bonds. Only, you
should write it out for me when you
return, so / shall have an accurate
statement"
Mr.. Schwab wrote out his remarks
as soon as he got back to his heme and
sent them to Mr.. Fisk.
Mr.. Fisk saw him soon afterward,
and said: "Why didn't you write me
what You said!"

disconnected, "you should have spoken

Their Former Attitude Blamed.
Since the United States declared
war on Germany the overwhelming
majority of senate and house have
been staunch in their expressions of
anti-Germanism, but the activities of
many of the members prior to the en-
try of the United States into the CON
f1ict made it appear that at that time
they were sympathetic with Germany

Senators and representatives are
human and q good many of them of
course cannot by any kindness be called
statesmen. The desire of nearly all
of them certainly is TO be entirely
patriotic, but when patriotism in its
pure essence seems to involve the pos

next election there are senators end
representatives who yield to the temp

cure the votes in their districts of men
of whatever opinion on the war.
There are senators and representa-
tives who have been straight for
Americanism in the face of seeming
danger of defeat when they stand for
reelection. and as things have devel-

that the man who thought of his coun-

One Of the essentials to genuine

truth, even about unpleasant subjects.
Thousands of parents allow their

to tell them the exact truth. In writ
ing "The Girl Without Chance" the

ipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to
get this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy an dtrouble-
some. Nowadays, by asking at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" you will get q
large bottle Of this famous old recipe
improved by the addition of other in
gradients, for about so cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You damped a sponge OF
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two your hair becomes
beautifully dark, glossy and attrac-
