DRAINAGE WObk WATTS
 ON DECISION OF COURT
Commissioners of Farrelly Lake Dis- trict Agree to Postpone COnstruc.,
 ti0n Until Court Acts.

No work under contracts recently awarded by the commissioners of the Farrclly Lake Drainage district, or Of other kind connected with the dis trict. is to be done until the chancery court hands down decision in the matter of the application for re- straining order, prayed for some days ago by property owners of Jef fcrson and Arkansas counties, and by which it is sought to prevent the commissioners from having dam built near.the. mouth of Bayou Meto.
 The. .comlnissioners met here yester- day, and discussed the matter at some length, finally reaching the decision to .dos nothing until the court has act ed on the petition now before it. Plaintiffs in the matter allege in their petition that the. building of the pro posed dam will not benefit the drain- age project, but will form reser- voir to hold water which is to be used to- irrigate rice farms in the vicinity of the dam. It'is alleged also in the petition that the work proposed to be done by the commissioners will cost $1 0,000,000 or more, whereas the act. organizing the district fixes a limit of $350,000 as the amount to be expended.

 Many women are somewhat awed by the term, "Home Economic Ex- pert" That is the title which Mrs. Vaughn has earned by her close Sp- plication to the study of the needs of the home and the best and most practical methods for reaching the living expenses, but after you have been with her a short time, you forget the high-sounding term. and You feel that you could tell he all your wor- ries and be sure of her understand ing interest.
 The theory of all household prob lens has been Mrs. Naughn's life study, but her method of explaining the practice of these theories is so simple that the most inexperienced housewife will understand and intel ligently the "whys" of the procedure.
 Those ladies who had the benefit of her lectures on the occasion of her last visit will remember her charm ing personality, and thft her lectures are not presented in a pedantic form, but rather in the spirit of the sue cessful housewife explaining her

Freckles and Blotches
 Are Easily Peeled Off

If you are bothered with any cu- taneous blemish, it's a poor plan to use paint; powder or anything else to cov- CT it. up. Too often this only em- phasizes the defect. Besides. it's much easier to remove the disfigurement with ordinary mercolized wax. Ap- piled nightly. the wax will gradually remove freckles, pimples, moth patch es, liver spots, sallowness, red blotch- es or any surface eruption. The af- fected cuticle is s1absorbed, a little each day, until the clear, soft, youthful and beautiful skin beneath is brought wholly to view. Ask the druggist for one ounce of amercolized wax and use this like you use cold cream. Remove in morning with soap and water. Many who have tried this simple harmless treatment report astonishing results.
 If troubled with wrinkles or fur rows, wash lotion made by dissolv-
 ing an ounce fpowdered saxolite in
 half pint of witch hazel, will prove wonderfully effective. There is noth- ing better for drawing ,ins sbaggy skin and improving the facial contour. It acts instantly and will not irritate: even the most sensitive skin.-AdY.4

 Recently in Birmingham in the largest theater in the city, Mrs Vaughn was demonstrating the mak- ing of cream puffs. She had finished and not sound had l cen heard no questions asked, and Mrs. Vaughn's query, ''It that clear to all? Is there any question you would like to ask 2" one of the club women of the city arose and said, Mrs. Vaughn, you have made it so clear that anyone who has listened thoroughly under stands, and l should have grieved for the intelligence of my tOwnswomen if any had asked a question. I'm no cook, but 1 know l car go home ana make cream pufts.
 Theory is fine thing, but when theory and practice are combined, it makes an excellent instrument with which to fight the battle of life. We are inviting Pine Bluff women to ! series of theoretical and practical lessons conducted by Mrs. Vaughn and assistants.

Mrs. Kate Brew Vaughn was seen several weeks ago in New York city in the cutest little kitchen that a newspaper man ever saw, and from this same kitchen came the odors that made a whole office building on Park Row hungry. What vas she doing? :? She was engaged in experimental cookery-trying out recipes for mag azine advertisers, newspapers and, together with several magazine writ CTS, testing devices for the home. she looked as happy as little girl with d new doll and talked Of the high cost of living as though it were another of the delightful experiences which
