just dampen a sponge or soft brush

Lovely White Skin!
Strain lemon juice we'll before
mixing and massage face,
neck, arms, hands.


By all means, girls. prepare lem
on lotion to keep your skin fieXi-
BILE and young looking. You will
soon realize that I. ne loveliness does
not mean the powdery-look or waXen
coloriessnesS of some hot-house
flower, but is typified by the velvety
softness of your skin, your peach
like complexion and rosy-white
hands,
At the cost of a small jar of ordi-
nary3 cold cream one can prepare a
full quarter pint of the most Won
derful lemon skin softener and COM
pleXion beautifier, by squeezing the
juice of two fresh lemons into a
bottle containing three ounces of
orchard white. Care should be TAX
en- to strain the juice through a fine
cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then
this lotion will keep fresh for
months. Every woman knows that
lemon juice is used to bleach and re-
move such blemishes as freckles, sal
lowness and tan, and is the ideal
skin softener, smoothener and beau
tifier.s
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and
make up a quarter pint of this
sweetly fragrant lotion and massage
it daily into the face, neck. arms and
hands. 1t should naturally help to
whiten, soften, freshen and bring
out the roses and hidden beauty of
any skin. 1t is simply marvellous to
smoother rough, red hands.

METHODS USED BY

Steps for an inquiry into the
methods of listing men in the first

cording TO kilograms received here
Athere is wide variance between the
numbers classified by boards, some
being high and some very low. Act
ing on instructions from Washing
ton the average number of men
placed in the first class by each board
will be ascertained and the state will
then be districted and inspectors
sent out to find the reasons for diff
ferences. Special inquiries will be
made into conditions involving agri-
culture and aliens. This work is to
be done within the next two weeks
The state headquarters is also
working out figures on the enlist
ments from Pennsylvania so as 10
