LLAMAS RIVALED By MOTOR
TRUCKS HIGH UP IN ANDES

High up in the Andes Mountains
of Bolivia motor trucks have become
the rivals of the llamas. which are
so much used as beasts of burden in
South America. Special interest at
taches to this case of motor-truck
service" says the Popular Mechanics
Magazine, because the vehicles, of
which there are four. are employed
at an altitude varying from two to
three miles and more. These ma
chimes were supplied by California
concern to a mining company in Bo-
livia to carry tin ore to the railway
station at Oruro, Bolivia. This city
is 1900 feet above Sc alevel. and
the road which the cars traverse
rises to 1900 feet. This is un-
doubtedly one of the highest gaso-
line-truck route in the world AL
though gasoline in this region costs
S1.25 per gallon, it is claimed that
the trucks show greater economy
than the llamas, many of which are
still used to carry ore. Each best's s
burden is about 100 pounds, which is
carried only a few miles per day."

Why should any woman continue to
wear an ugly, humiliating growth OF

to be compared at all with the depila-

Phelactine is non-odorous. non-irri-
tating. non-poisonous-so harmless IL
could be eaten without any bad effect.
Best of all, the hairs come out en-

very eyes! The skin is left as smooth
and hair-free as a child's.
