navy, he realized that il was task
that meant considerable acumen and

Today. IN a rather unimposing
room in the navy department. these
girls have the finger prints and the
hand marks OF every member OF the
navy. All are tabulated and care

things Of war happen. il Is possible
tor these four girls 70 relieve the
minds OF anxious mothers. FOR they
are able 10 identify badly mutilated
bodies by the tinser prints. IL Is
perhaps an unhappy task Tor girls
but war is unhappy and these four
young ladies have set 70 the work
with q spirit that will win the war

the splendid results? skin bleached
beautifully white, a complexion with
the bloom OF peach, a softening Of
those lines of care: in fact, a skin elo-
quent of natures purity and hands
white, soft and full OF charm
What girl or woman hasn't heard OF
lemon juice to remove complexion
blemishes: to bleach the skin and to
bring out the roses, the freshness and
the hidden beauty? But lemon juice
alone is acid, therefore irritating, and
should be mixed with orchard white
this way. Strain through a fine cloth
the Juice of two fresh lemons into
bottle containing about three ounces
Of orchard white, then shake well adm
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 massaged daily into the face,
neck, arms and hands it should nat
urally help to whiten, clear, smoother
and beautify the skin.
ANY druggist will supply three
ounces of orchard white at very little
cost and the grocer has the lemons.

Additional menus were to be drafted
