 IN RUSSIA
(By Associated Press)

BOULDER, Colo, May 5. - Mem bers of the Russian army, prisoner for possession of banned book, revolu- tionist, Siberian exile, escaped prison CT, janitor of the medical building and student of medicine at the University of Colorado here and proposed can didate for the Russian Duma. That is condensed synopsis of the life of c. Antonianco, a Russian, who will re- turn to his native land in response, he says, to calls from his district that he become candidate for the Russian governing body.
 Whether he will answer these calls, or, instead, will take up arms for the defense of his native land, Antonianco says will depend on circumstances.
 Antonianco is not yet thirty years of age. After studying engineering at the University of Kiev, where he ob- tained a degree in that profession, he turned his attention to medicine and completed two years of a course at the same institution. Then he entered the army, only to have his career cut short. Eight months in jail served to inculcate revolutionary ideas in him and he presently was exiled to Siberia for life because of his activities along that line. He escaped, made his way to America and about two years ago took up the study of medicine again in the Colorado institution, where he soon will complete his work

Best Iheater.

A screen story built around Wallace Irwin's famous character "Hashi- mura Togo" will be shown at the Best theater today, starring Sessue Haya- kawa, famous Japanese screen actor. Mr. Hayakawa's work up to the pres ent time has been for the most part :n ultra-dramatic characterizations such as his work in "The Cheat" and the screen version of Robert Louis Stevenson's famous story, ''The Bottle Imp'
 It will be remembered that ''Hashi- mura Togo" is the name of a Japanese schoolboy and there is something par ticularly appropriate in billing "Ses- sue Hayawawa as "Hashimura Togo
 William C. De Mile who recently devoted himself entirely to scenario work, was assigned to produce the "Hashimura Togo" picture because oi lis special adaptability for such char acter work. Theatergoers who ap- plauded his earlier productions, such as "The Ragamuffin. "The Clown and "The Heir to the Hoorah," will appreciate how surely Mr. De Miles direction insures the success of a production. 'Hashimura Togo" is 6 Paramount picture

How to Banish
 Wrinkles Quickly

If your face is disfigured with wrin- kles, no matter what the cause, you can quickly dispel every line, even the most obstinate, by using a simple, homemade wash lotion. Merely dis solve an ounce of powdered saxolite in a half pint of witch hazel-inex- pensive ingredients found in any drugstore. Bathe the face in this, and scarcely believe your own eyes when you look into your mirror and behold the marvellous transformation!
 The remarkable astringent action of the saxolite so tightens the skin, wrinkles are literally pressed out. Best of all, this result is not purely temporary, for the lotion also has a healthful tonic action, which tends to strengthen and tone up the weakened tissue. and added benefit may be ex- pected with continued use. Use this once day for awhile; it cannot in- jure the most delicate skin. The treatment itself leaves no trace-no one guesses the secret of your increas- ing youtful appearance.-Advt.

UPLAND COTTON IS
 WORTH I9C-2OC UP
This Is View Expressed in September Issue of Merchants & Planters Review.

That upland cotton should bring 1e cents and above is the view expressed in the September issue of the Mer. chans & Planters Bank Review which says:
 The crop is now far enough along so that the better posted ones can at least predict with some certainty the final outcome. The government re- port of the condition up to August 24 shows an average condition of 67.S This would indicate total yield fol the present year of 12,499,OOO bales three weeks late over the entire belt exclusive of linters.
 "Inasmuch as the crop is about and is now showing marked deterio- ration, we are inclined to believe the last government report a little toe high and our private ideas are that the crop will prove to be nearer 12. 900, ,000 bales than the government's figures of 12,500,000.
 Reports of boil weevil are very numerous from all sections in the south half of the state. Of course crop of 12,00O,0O0 bales does not neces sarily mean 25 cent or 30 cent cotton With the present scarcity of ocear tonnage exports will necessarily bt reduced to a considerable extent, Int effect of the government licensing al exports to neutral countries will als, be felt.
 We would advise our friends to mar ket their upland cotton down to pric, of 19 cents to 20 cents. Should price. break below this figure we are near ing the actual cost of production ant we believe the South as rule will re fuse to sell in quantities at under 1: cents to 20 cents. The planter gen erally is now financially able to holt his cotton when the price passes below the cost of production and this will b, the means of stopping any great breal in the market"
