Girls Have Pretty Face and
Beautiful Complexion.

An Atlanta man makes new
discovery that makes an old face
look years younger. Is your skin
dark, brown, or covered with
freckles or blemishes? just use a
little Cocotone Skin Whitener:
it's made with cocoanut oil and is
perfectly harmless. A few days
use will improve your looks 100
per cent. The worn out skin
comes off evenly, leaving no evi-
dence of the treatment, the new
healthy under-skin appearing as
a lovely new complexion.
Just ask your druggist for an
ounce of Cocotone Skin Whiten-
er, and if he will not supply you
send twenty-five cents to the CO.
cotone Co., Atlanta, Ca, and
they will send you a box by re-
turn mail.
If your hair is hard to comb, is
kinky, nappy and will never stay
straight, just use Cocotone Hair
Dressing and it will become
straight, long, soft, glossy and
beautiful in a few days mail or
ders filled 25c for large box.

THE HONEYMOON HOUSE
By Hazel Dale

and Janet could not imagine what ii
contained, although it ought to be
something nice, for her fathers broth
er had sent ii. The. big wooden cover
was lifted off and Janet dived down
INFO the excelsior and brought out
something wrapped with paper.
1T feels like n cup she said ecStac-
tically. Jarvis, 1 know what it is
dishes!'
She unwrapped the cup carefully.
In way she was happy, but in an
other way she was almost afraid to
look. Suppose it was a design unsuited
to the studio life: just suppose Uncle
Ned had sent a dinner set banded in
gold! That would be a catastrophe.
And then she had the cup in her hand
and she looked up at Jarvis.
Isn't it adorable" she said with
an envelope. From Uncle Ned and
Aunt Florence" she read, hoping
that this queer design will please our
young Bohemian relatives"
The design was of the kind used in
tearooms. Queer birds and flowers
were scattered over it promiScuously.
Janet had seen a set like it in Fifth
ly, for she knew that the money she
and Jarvis had set aside to buy things
with would not be nearly enough to
pay for them. And here they were.
AT this rate, we Shant have to buy
anything but kitchen utensils" Janet
said. as they went on unpacking and
gradually disclosed silver meat plat
ter. a silver cake plate, a queer old
brass coffee pot, an electric chafing
dish and countless other smaller gifts
OF the kind generally presented to
brides.
There are two large packages
down stairs" Jarvis said finally when
they had unwrapped the last one.
Jack said he would bring them up as
! soon as he could get some one to help
him. Suppose go down; we might as
we'll have them"
Ten minutes later two more queer
looking packages We're being rapidly
Invested of their outer garments.

what's that? Jarvis, it's never a rug"
But it was a rug, a gorgeous. rich

look regal in the studio.

said. looking up to meet Jarcis's eyes:

Rheumatism an Insidious Disease;
Begins With Insignificant Pains

Don't overlook the first signs of
rheumatism. Prompt treatment is
highly important, but the right treat
ment is the only kind that will do you
any good. Have you ever known of
Rheumatism being cured by liniments,
or other external applications? Most
certainly not. Do not, therefore,
make the mistake that many have, but
bear in mind that external remedies
positively cannot reach rheumatism.
1t cannot be rubbed out of the blood.
S. S. S. can be relied upon to cleanse
the blood and has been giving relief
from rheumatism for more than fifty

cases have yielded to it. Write to-day

McCabe Refuses to Grant
Science Divorce From Humor

land, who will give an illustrated lee
ture on Wonderful Chapters in the
Worlds History" In the Technical
High school auditorium tomorrow
evening, at SIS o'clock. comes highly
recommended by the American Am
bassador to England, Walter Hines
Page. The lecture will be given un-
der the auspices of the Harrisburg
Nationl History Society.
Mr.. McCabe was for several years
professor of philosophy at Louvain
University. afterwards devoting his
time to the scientific side of modern
culture, especially in its bearing on
evolution. His critics say he puts sci
entifc matters in language that can be
understood and is one of those who
cannot see why humor should be d.
vorced from science.
MIR. McCabe's hundreds of lantern
slides include many of his own photo
graphs of rare objects in scientific
collections.

She wore a big apron over her dress
and she was trying to bring order
out of chaos About her in varying
degrees of disorder stood her things.
The beautiful ivory bedroom suite
had not arrived, as JAWS and Janet
were not keeping house by any means.
They were only spending their honey
moon in q novel manner, that is, in
doing what they liked
Most of Janet's wicker things had
been put into the bedroom, but the
things that had come up from the
other studio were in the big room. A
woman was working at the windows,
and as fast as Janet could unpack a
thing the papers and strings were
hastily disposed of by the obliging
janitor, who evidently thought the oc-
cupants of the top floor studio very
strange and wonderful beings.
Jarvis came in suddenly and found
her among the half opened packages.
He almost staggered under another
armful of boxes. Janet gave a little
scream of delight.

"Well. maybe we've struck a blank

However. we unlimbered the pickaX

especially as we were all soft for it.
