lemon juice to remove complexion

bring out the roses. the freshness and
the hidden beauty? But lemon juice
alone is acid. therefore irritating. and

the juice OF two fresh lemons into a
bottle containing about three ounces Of
orchard white. then shake well and you
have a whole quarter pint of skin and
complexion lotion at about the cost
one usually pays for a small jar of
ordinary cold cream. Be sure to strain
the lemon Juice so no pulp gets into
the bottle, then this lotion will remain
pure and fresh for months. When
applied daily to the face, neck. arms
and hands 1t should help to bleach,

Any druggist will supply three
ounces OF orchard white at very little

POTATOES AND THE
GOVERNMENT PLANS

Caribou, Me, Sept. 27.-Hon. G. G.
King returned from Washington, D.
c.. Tuesday, where he had been called
with other prominent shippers to con-
slider with Mr.. Hoover the proper
method of handing the potato ssua-
ton from the government standpoint.
In an interview with the News repre-
sentative Tuesday morning Mr.. King
stated that the government will not
do any price fixing on potatoes at
present. The policy that was decided
upon was to compel all dealers to take
out government licenses which Axes
and determines their duties. The
shipper must ship potatoes that meet
the specifications in the grade for
which he sells them and the dealer at
the other end must perform his con-
tract.
In order to enforce its regulations,
the government will station inspec-
tors ats the large cen,ers of distribu-
ton. If any dealer is detected in
selling potatoes that do not meet
the requirements of the grade for
which he sells them, he will lose his
license If a dealer at the other end is
detected III unjustly turning down cars
of potatoes because of some trumped
up claim as to their condition he will
lose his license and be subject to
heavy fine if he tries to continue bust
ness without his license.
1t is interesting in this connection
to note that the government has final
ly been forced to adopt through its IL
cense plans the very object which the
Potato Shippers Association sought to
accomplish by their method Of in
spection and the detection Of unfair
dealers and for which the government
punished them under law which un-
der circumstances like those from
which the shippers endeavored to pro-
tect themselves put premium upon
the rascality Of the crooked. dealers
and rewarded them for acts. the conf
mission Of which in the future 1t now
proposes to punish them.
The Potato Shippers Association

government for the very ACTS for
which it punished them few months

reveals the danger of hasty legislation
in which the operation of a proposed

arise under it and in some of which

seek, is sometimes outraged instead of
