La-May Face Powder

A specialist has at last perfected a
pure face powder that really stays on
better than any other. 1t does not
contain white lead or starchy rice
powder to make II stick. Five
Thousand dollars is offered any chem
fist who analyses it and finds II con-
tains any white lead or rice powder.
White lead poisons the skin and rice
powder turns into gluey paste that
encourages enlarged pores, black
heads and rice powder pimples. This
improved formula contains a medi-
ciIal powder doctors use to heal the
skin. In fact, this new powder helps
to prevent and reduce enlarged pores,
blackheads and pimples. 1t Is called
La-may (French, Poudre lame. Be-
cause 1t is pure and because 1t stays
on better than any other, II Is al

1t is not theory that each. room
requires a quart of water per day

ture that pans of water are re-
quired. The more moist the air
the quicker it is heated and the
more. coal is saved.
Fuel is used in both cooking and
heating. so there are two distinct
places where 1t may be saved. The

because this is extremely wasteful
of coal
For instance, when the weather
is cold and when the wind blows
strong the natural draught In the
chimney is also stronger, but few
people realize this and mistakenly
change the hampers and give the
wind a double chance at the fire.
The OILY result is forcing the air
I'D the chimney. It is an entirely
wrong theory to suppose that the
stronger the draught the hotter the
fire. Too much air wastes coal and
dissipates heat.
Each person should carefully ex-
pertinent with his particular stove
or system and find out the exact
method of putting on coal. using
the draughts and operating It effi-
GENTLY.
It is surprising in how. many
homes no attention Is given'to the
use Of Memberships or storm win

that permit unnecessary cold all
to enter, and II this cold air must
be heated, of course, there Is
waste of coal. Storm windows, es-

Countless people are now clean
ing their teeth in a new way. And
modern dentists all over America
are urging other people to join
them.
The old ways proved inefficient.
As millions know, they failed to
prevent tooth troubles. Despite
the tooth brush, tartar, decay and
pyorrhea constantly became more
common.
Some years age the reason was
discovered. 1t lies in a film-a
Shiny ilm-which constantly forms
on teeth.
That film gets into crevices,
hardens and stays. 1t resists the
tooth brush, and most tooth trou-
bles are now known to be due to it.

trio heater, or even one Of gas. The
portable oil heater with round lamp
wick is familiar. II win In few
moments heat room 10x12, and Is
especially useful In the morning
and evening for the bathroom or
nursery. BY its use the period Of
coal using with larger heater may
be decreased.
There Is a new electric heater
which consists OF q copper disk
about twenty inches in diameter
with radiating wires surrounding
the electric bulb. This may be at
tached to any electric light socket
and It will instantly radiate con-
siderable heat into a room. Other
types of electric heaters are made

like small stoves which rest on the
floor. There IL a new gas heater
which may be attached to any or
binary gas burner. II looks like q
gigantic mushroom and radiates
the heat downward. making any
room considerably warmer In a
few minutes.
American invention has kept
pace with fuel shortage and has
originated types of burners to use
kerosene for heating. These burn
ers are connected with either an
ordinary or pressure tank holding
kerosene. and may be installed in
a base-burner, Kitchen range or

The Pepsodent results are quick
ly apparent. After a few days use
you will never forget them.
The basis is pepsin, the diges-
tant of albumin; for the film is
albuminous matter. The object of
Pepsodent is to dissolve the film,
then to constantly prevent its ac-
cumulation.
But pepsin must be activated.
The ordinary agent is an acid,
harmful to the teeth! For long
that fact made pepsin seem i'm
possible.
Now modern science has dis
covered a harmless, activating
method. Five governments already
have granted patents. It is that
method which makes possible this
efficient application.
Four years have been spent by
dentists in proving the value of
this product, Now we urge all
people to prove it by home test.

Mr.. Wilson has it down exactly
right. There can be no peace until
this thing Is brought to finish. The
whole German ambition is the lust OF
conquest. 1t has been that way al
ways and 1t will always continue that
way. These people cannot be satisfied
with excellence in the arts of peace
or advance in science. They want to
dominate and tyrannize and nothing
else would do them. Even If they
should agree to give up Belgium
France, Alsace and Lorraine and the
Italian provinces. there would yet be
no safety. II Germany is allowed to
continue her free hand in Russia she
will eventually train and organize the
teeming millions Of that country into
armies with which she can conquer the

PRICE OF COTTON SEED

The following statement was issued
yesterday by William Elliott food ad-
ministrator of South Carolina:
a meeting was held in Columbia
today, at which was present the advi-
sory committee Of the food administra-
ton, consisting Of representatives OF
the farmers. oil mills, ginners, inde-
pendent seed buyers and the state food
administration.
THE meeting was called to consid-
er cotton seed conditions generally
but especially the fact that the analy-
sis OF seed made so far showed less
oil in the seed than the official yield
The price OF cotton seed was stabilized
at the request Of the cotton producers
of the South held in Washington In
the latter part Of August that the
price of seed should be stabilized on
the basis OF $40 for carload lots for
cotton seed producing Al gallons OF
oil, the price varying In the different
states according to the oil yield.
THE yield of oil in South Carolina
last year was approximately 43 gallons
and the price of $72 per ton was based
far made by oil mills show that the
seed instead OF containing 43 gallons
of oil contains approximately 40 1-2
gallons of oil. II this condition proves
sound it Is patent that the price OF
cotton seed must be revised.
The food administration has ar
ranged for an official analysis of cot
ton seed by the State chemist OF
South Carolina, and as soon as his
analysis Is made the facts will be re-
ported to the food administration in
Washington for action.
1T was the sense Of the meeting that
these facts should be made public.
The samples Of seed for the official
analysis have been sent to the food
administration by the county food
administrators from each county in
1.-The State. and the analysis will be
lmade Immediately.
"In order not to retard the seed
business the meeting suggests to those
who find 1t necessary to deliver the
seed that II it Is desired so to do the

understanding that settlement should
be made upon any new stabilized price

Germanys objection to the use OF
shotguns by the Americans in alleged
contravention of The Hague agreement
is interesting. 1t was the Germans that
introduced murder gas in this war, and
il was Germany that raised the big
howl when the Allies began to beat
them at their own game. Yes. the
shotgun is q diabolical weapon; but we
do not see that Germany has just
grounds for objection. The whole incl
dent reminds us of a certain incident
that occurred in this town years ago In
connection with what was to have been
a fair fight between a white man and
a negro. The white man attempted to
strike with his stick and the negro
came back with n stone. mo rocks,
