by opening the sluices of the system

action of hot water and limestone

splendid appetite for breakfast
The millions of people who are
bothered with constipation, bilious

others who have sallow skins, blood

urged to get a quarter pound of lime

Why Spring Brings Out
Freckles and Eruptions

Tho sudden appearance of freckles.
slight eruptions or fine lines at this
season is attributed by scientists to
the "actinic ray" which is unusually
active during the spring months.

in fluence, If one will procure an ounce
of common mercerized wax at any
drug store, apply little of it before
retiring. like cold cream, she. can easily
overcome the trouble. When the wax
is washed off next morning, minute
flaky skin particles come with it. The
entire outer cuticle is removed in this
way in n week or two, with all its de-
fects.

move freckles or blemishes. The new
surface is smooth, clear, fresh looking

SWEET POTATOES

The sweet potato thrives best in the
southern part of the country, as it is
tropical plant. 1t cannot be success
fully grown in the extreme northern
sections of the country. The plants
are started in hotbeds by bedding po-
tatoes in sand and allowing them to
sprout. The plants are broken off the
parent potato as soon as they have
formed few leaves and root system
of their own. and as soon as the
ground in the open is we'll warmed up.
This will be one month after the date
of the last killing frost.
Sweet potatoes are a heat-lovinS
plant, and cannot withstand cool
weather. In setting them in the open,
the usual method is to throw the soil
up in ridges about feet apart. The
plants are set in row on top of these
ridges some II or IA inches apart.
Sweet potatoes thrive best in n
sandy soil that is well fortified
throughout. 1t is a good plan to open
burrows where the row is to be, fill
these burrows with manure and turn
the soil back on top of the manure.
This should be thoroughly mixed with
shovel pillow or cultivator, as too
much manure in one spot under the
hole will produce a large growth of
vines at the expense of the potatoes.
Sweet potatoes may be dug at any
time after they become large enough
to use, but improve in quality as they
approach maturity. They should be
dug as soon as the vines are killed by
frost.-U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture.

SOMETHING ABOUT SUGAR

When one reads in the paper that the state food administrator says that each member of a household is en- titled to three or four pounds of sug- ar, as the case may be, the whole fam fly smiles in anticipation of the in creased allowance.

 If a groceryman has sugar he will sell it. He buys it to sell and not to keep. Local grocers say that the re- ports that 50 many pounds of sugar may be sold per person has made them all kinds of trouble for the sim pie reason that they can not get it to deliver

Modest in tbs Setting Of

Burlington is not having q Red
Cross campaign this week, as 1t has
adopted the war chest idea This is
to raise lot of money for all war pur.
poses and later divide it between the
different needs. DR.. Arson showed
showed clearly the objections to this
plan in his address here. and it natur-
ally lends itself to moderate coIlec-
tons and subscriptions for all the
needs Of the war
Fort Madison has a weeks Red
Cross war fund campaign on as in
Keokuk. but the Democrat states its
par, called its quota at only Sc. 900, in
all modesty. Pro rata that would
mean about $1,000 for Keakuk which
raised over twice that In few min
utes from the solicitors Just before the
teams started out to work
Keokuk is not paying much atten-
ton TO anything but her own business
but II is interesting to observe the

much money as was reported orally
by teams at the luncheon yesterday.
There is considerable public COM

the responsibility and blame for this
state of affairs rests entirely on GER

daily at 9-o'clock as directed by Chair
man Joy.

once when Fred Overton, captain OF

Mr.. Swan told the solicitors that
a Committee might take it's choice ont
of seven lots he owns, and then the
Red Cross war fund executive com
mittee could sell the lot rattle it off,
auction it, or dispose of it in any way
it pleased and he viii make deed to
the new final owner, whoever that
may be.
Chairman Joy at once appointed
Thomas H Joyce. R. V. McCutcheon
and E L Aldrich a committee to
select the lot, and the rest Of the
proceedings followed apace.
The committee last evening chose a
lot at the corner of H and Ash
streets. c. F. Mcfarland will deter
