Women Everywhere
Use Lemon Juice
To Beautify Skin


The beauty lotion which is becoming
so popular throughout the country Is
easily prepared by anyone. and a whole
quarter pint of 1t doesn't cost any more
than a small jar of the common, Ordi-
nary cold creams.
Add the juice of two fresh lemons to
three ounces OF orchard white and
shake well in bottle Strain the
lemon juice two or three times through
a fine cloth so no pulp gets into the
lotion. then 1t will keep fresh for
months. Regardless Of what price you
pay or how highly advertised. there is
nothing else really more meritorious in
Identifying. softening and clearing the
skin. AS tan and blemish remover,
also to remove Oiliness and sallOwness,
lemon juice has no rival. Massage 1t
into the face, neck and arms once or
twice each day. and just see il it does
not bring out the roses and hidden
beauty!
Lemons have always been used to
bleach the skin, but pure lemon juice
is too highly acid, therefore should
never be used except in this manner.
If properly prepared. this sweetly
fragrant lotion will speak for itself.
Any drug store will. supply the three
ounces OF orchard white at very little
cost. and the grocer will supply the
lemons.-Adv.

School children may not mind dirt.
but they have positive aversion to
cold water for washing purposes. At

committee on repairs Is now investi-
eating the cost of installing hot wa
ter in all the city schools. The fig
.ures will be submitted at the next

water in the buildings. 1t has proved
it's value in them, according to SUI

OF c. W. Elliott. B. A. Van Wormer

War conditions have brought about the
opening of many mines that had been
abandoned, including the copper des-
posits in Nershire, Vermont, where sew
eral hundred hands were employed years
ago. The shafts there have been filled
with water in recent years, but the
copper veins can probably be worked
again at a profit with present market
prices The sulphur ore mines in Rowe,
Mass, Just across the state line from
Vermont, are also to be re-opened and the
management is looking for 80 employees.
These mines were operated more than
30 years, with an output exceeding
$l,000,0O0 annually. Some six years ago
after reaching a depth of 1000 feet,
operations were suspended. Recently
experts have decided that new shaft

Enrollments I'm our colleges this year

if present indications are correct. This
is hard on the colleges, but they have
the consciousness of having trained
their sons to answer to the call of duty
to their country. Most Of the college
boys, be it noted to their everlasting
credit, did not wait to be drafted. As
for the incoming classes, many of our
national leaders, including President
Wilson, have expressed the hope that
every boy or girl who is prepared tC
enter college this fall should do so il

WHEN THEY ARE OURS.

We skim over the headlines of the
newspapers and don't bother much
about the bloody battles being fought in
Europe because we cannot pronounce
the names of the cities anyway, and
most Of us have not the remotest idea
where they are.
\ murder or serious accident in the
home town makes u greater impression
on our minds than the killing of a hun
dEcd thousand men in the trenches. The
hundred thousand do not disturb us
very much, because we think they are
a lot Of people way off in Europe.
But if one Of the hundred thousand
were ours it would be different-would
it not And perhaps it s going to take
just this thing to arouse us from our
lethargy.
There are certain very specific things
which every citizen must do if we arc
to win the war. What these things arc
is constantly being told us in the news
papers, the pulpits and the public halls
ana the government is trying its bes
to make each of US see our responsible
ties What about it? What are yol
doing to help win the war?

In the old days of easy importation
many things were bought in Germany
because they could be secured so easily
that there was no incentive to establish
their production. Since Che war we have
the plants III this country necessary for
learned to manufacture much that was
previously imported, and our "infant
industry business has taken on a new
bomb that will add permanently to
our prosperity. 1t is generally conceded
that the economies which must be prac-
ticed will make us more thrifty in the
years to come, and that the lessons in
agriculture arising out of the thousands
of new backyard gardens are bound to
be permanently profitable. The big war
is not a blessing, but it is bringing home
many valuable lessons that were never
given a thought in times of peace.
