this steamirg process, dry your face with a soft towel. mopping or gently rubbing the skin in an upward motion. Your skin will now be in condition to receive massage.
 Spread over your finger-tips and palms a little pure almond oil, white vaseline or a good cold cream.
 Place the fingers of both hands upon your cheeks, with the tips of the fingers just beyond the skin. Draw your hands upward using a gentle pressure with the flnger-tips only. Make this movement an upward and backward one, so that at the end of the stroke your fingers will be at the hair-line over the temples.
 Then begin another series of strokes. in the same position, but make your fingers describe circles about as big as a half-dollar. working your fingers up- ward and around, making one line of circles above the other, until your fore | head is again reached. Repeat these l movements eight or ten times, always with gentle upward pressure.
 Hints on Massage.
 | Next massage your forehead. Place the tips of your fingers so that they meet at the centre of your forehead above your eyebrows, and move them | outward and upward to your temples 1 for 10 or 12 strokes, The circular mo- ton should follow this s:roking. Always remember that in the circular motion your fingers should carry their heaviest pressure as they pass upward. Never rub downward to the eyebrows or in- ward from th1<temples toward the mid I de of the forehead.
 The next strokes can begin at the cor ners of the nose on the cheeks, or at the chin. The massage should be upward and outward as far as the corners of the eyes. Repeat this motion several times. Then massage above the eyes

MEN WILL BE RETAINED IN SER
VICE AT REGULAR PAY UNTIL
THEY GET WORK

Returned soldiers will be retained

cry is as complete as possible. The
men will be grouped in three classes
those who can return to full mill
tary duty, those who can serve at
home in military or civil life, and
those who are no longer capable OF
military service. All three classes
will be treated according to the most
advanced methods, which will include
various forms of therapy and gym
nastic and mental occupation, in or
der that they may be physically re-
stored and returned to healthy and
happy frame of mind.
Most men will be able to return
to full military duty. For men in the

ture, printing, woodworking, or pho
Biography. or prepare themselves for
the civil service, teaching, or work
as statisticians. great number of
trades and occupations are included
in the list. and additions are con-
stantly being made.
Men in the third group. so much
disabled that they can no longer give
even limited military service. may re-

FONDEST HOPES ARE BLASTED

The death of Edwin 1. Quereau.
son OF Mr.. and Mrs. Dewitt Quereau,
a member OF the engineers force in
France, which was chronicled in our
columns a short time ago and which
at a later date was believed to be un-
true. has at last been confirmed to
the sad parents in such a manner
that there can be no doubt OF the
death OF this brave young man.
Some time ago the parents receiv-
ed cablegram from Tied" saying
"Safe." and signed Quereau. This
cablegram the parents OF course
thought was sent by Edwin on his
learning that his name had appeared
in the casualty list. However. later
correspondence received by friends
Eof the young man here would indi-
cate that the cablegram was sent 10
khis parents to notify them OF his safe
karrival over there. 1t is presumed
Ethat the cablegram was written by
Edwin some time between July 3Oth
kand August End and in some manner
delayed in dispatch.
Little can the community realize
what this means to these loving par
ents who were justified in believing
I That their brave son still lived. onl,
f1o have these fond hopes blasted b,

Although there has been ample
lime. no letters have been received
rom Edwin since the date OF Jul,
