don't you get a box of Cascarets

Better Weather Improves
Production of Plants

The production of the local steel
plant as we'll as many others in the
country has improved with better
weather conditions. The transporta-
tion problem is still confronting
steel officials. The Iron Age of to-
day says:
'Favoring weather has put up the
production of pig iron and steel, but
the arrangement and insufficiency of
transportation still stand out every
where. There is little dissent. there
fore, from the view that the industry
will fall considerably short of capac-
ity production in 1918. At the same
time demand for other than war
purposes is meager and in some
lighter products the outlook for mill
operations is not so promising"

Old French
Beauty Secret

! Mile. Dc Lores, the famous
s French actress, who recently ar
! rived in this country and who is
( now in her 65th year, has aston
5 ished everyone who has seen her,
I by her exquisite complexion and
s clear, smooth skin which Is not
! marred by a single line or wrinkle.
When asked to explain how she
had retained her marvellous girlish
} beauty, she replied that she had
! always practiced one of the oldest
of French beauty secrets: a secret
which for years was jealously
poleon the First. 1t consists of
laying a warm cloth on the face
each night before retiring for
about one minute and then when
the cloth is removed, a generous
amount of ordinary am-o-nized
cocoa cream should be applied over
tbs entire face and neck, massage
1t gently into the skin with the
) finger tips for about two minutes,
then wipe off the surplus with
soft, dry cloth. Mile. De Lores
says that any American woman
who has wrinkles and large pores
or fiabby. loose skin, can easily
and quickly overcome these de-
stroyers of beauty by the use of
this simple yet delightful and ma
tural Beautifier. which is inexpen-
sive and can be found at almost
any good druggists.
The above, coming as 1t does
from such q oonnoisseur of beauty,
should appeal strongly to every
lady who appreciates what a fair
face means to the gentler sex.

equipment stored there estimated by
the police at more than $1,000, 900. M.

out to combat the flames, which
threatened more than 100000 worth

A report was current that the origin
of the fire was incendiary and sub

taking into custody by the police of
an Austrian, an enemy alien, who was
captured within the stockade shortly
after an explosion was heard, which
Is believed to have started the fire.
Another explosion Is said to have, par
