Engineers pretty generally agree
now that there IS nothing gained by
extravagant wheel base, that wheel
base IS merely a device which al en-
gineer falls back on when tho pur-

For Rough, Wrinkled,
 Freckled, Pimpled Skin

As March winds, flying dust and dirt, are apt to injure any complex ion, this information will be of spe- ciaI value right now. If you have any cutaneous blemish, don't use paint, powder or anything else to GOV CT it up. Too often this only empha- sizes the defect. Besides, it's much easier to remove the disftgurement with ordinary nlercolized wax. Ap- piled nightly, the wax will gradually remove freckIes. pimples, moth patches, sallowness, red or yellow bIotches or any surface eruption. The affected cuttcIe is absorbed, q little each day, until the clear, soft, youth ful and beautiful skin beneath is brought wholly to view. Ask the druggist for one ounce of nercolized wax and use this like you use cold cream. Remove fin morning with soap and water. Many who have tried this sim pie, harmless treatment report as tonishing results.
 If bothered with wrinkles or fur rows, a wash lotion made by dissolv- ing an ounce of powdered saxolite in q half pint of witch hazel will prove wonderfully effective.

No Lazy Mans Place,

If you saw the bird Of paradise, and then listened to some folk talk you may be under the impression Hawaii is a land where Americans go and Just naturally forget to work, lie down beneath a shady, spready tree and listen to the thrum of the Hawaiian guitars until they're lulIed Into 8 sleep from which they seldom are aroused. That stuff said s. s. Pavson of Honolulu, 'is all right, but it's for story books and comic operas. 1 went to Honolulu B years ago from Philadelphia, be- came president of the Rotary club, a member of the legislature and head of the largest automobile concern in Honolulu. When I came back to the United States I don't find any of my old companions are staying up any later at night than do or travel any faster than I do. Don't let any one put that go-to-sleep-aEd-never up" idea into your head. Hawaii is not lazy mans country, by any means"

BOLSHEVIsNf IN AT. s.

Philadelphia, March E8-Bolshev- ism in this country is encouraged by 'flippant attitude" toward law and those placed in authority, according to Judge John M. Patterson. of the Philadelphia Court Of Common Pleas, in an address here recently.
 ''The Bolshevfk movement has found root here because thouEhtless remarks are made about the mon we have selected or appointed to public offices. If these people don't like the President of the United States or if they cannot show him the re speCt to which his position entities him, let them move on,'' continued s<ige Patterson.
 Although I am a republican" said the Judge, T heartily approve Of many of the things which President Wilson is trying to do for the country. He was elected by the sovereign peo- pie and should be supported by all loyal Americans during his term of office. Of course, we have a, right to discuss matters affecting our wei fare, but that does not mean that we should attack those who differ with us'
 IT those who came here because they could not tolerate conditions in their own country find that our ways are not to their liking, let them re- turn whence they came. Our public officials should be respected until they prove corrupt and then there is a lawful way of removing them.''

SKIN FOR LEATHER
Possibility That Tanning Process Has Been Di DiGcoVered That Will
 Solve sIa Problem.

At present in A"nonay, France, an earnest effort is being made to intro duce rabbit skin leather In shoe mak- ing. Annonay is in the valley of the Rhone, just south of Lyons. It was there, about 75 years ago, that chem ist devised a tanning process in which the hair was removed from the pelt of a rabbit without damage to the skin. Previously no one had been able to remove the hair without injuring the pelt.
 The chemist had his process tried out for short time, but it did not prove to be Q commercial success and the rabbit-skin shoe came to be only a memory. Less than ten years ago some Germans got hold of the cid chemists formula and began to manu- facture rabbit leather.
 At one of the industrial cxpositions tn Germany in 1909 there was a display of 25O styles of shoes made of rabbit skins. The exhibition won first prize in the department of footwear. Now the French have taken up the work of the old chemist of Annonay and are manufacturing shoes out of rabbit belts.

AANKIND'S DEBT TO THE DOG
Possibly Few Realize How Much the 'NobIer Animal" Owes to Ills
 Faithful SerVitor.

We have been accustomed lately to things, In terms of war; but our debt to the dog dates back to very many centuries before the black year of 1914. Dogs are our oldest friends of the animal world, and it is believed that, since the time man began to do- mesticate them, they have made more rapid strides in intelligence than we have ourselves.
 The day may dawn when we seek to preserve all living things through aI- truism, but that day Is long distant. A writer in London Answers observes dogs have survived to the tune Of over 1T5 different species, because they are useful. As shepherds, Scotch collies are cheaper and more effective than the average human being. Pointers and setters are used with the gun. Other varieties are employed as pro tectors and comrades; while the er- rands of mercy achieved by St. Ber~ nards are known to the world. A St. Bernard that died q few years ago won medal for saving twenty-two lives.
 But when 8 dog ceases to be of use to us 1t falls on evil days. The orig ilal bull dog was invaluable to man in handling cattle. When fences were invented the bull dog began to de cline, and the present day bull terrier, used as pet, marks phase that Is vsry likely leading toward extinction.

Jump from Bed

 Drink Hot Water
Teils why everyone should drink hot water each morning
 before breakfast.

Why is man and woman, half the time, feeling nervous Respondent, worried; some days headachy, dull and unstrung; some days really inca pacitated by illness.
 If we all would practice inside bathing, what d gratifying change would take place, Instead of thou sands of half-sick, anaemic-looking souls with pasty, muddy comp1exiOns we should see crowds of happy, healthy, rosy checked people every where. The reason is that the hu- man system does not rid itself each day of all the waste which it accu- 1nu1ates under our present mode of living. For every ounce of food and drink taken into the system nearly an ounce of waste material must be carried out, else it ferments and forms ptomalne-like poisons which are ab- sorbed into the blood.
 Men and women, whether sick or well, are advised to drink each morn ing before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of lime stone phosphate in it. as a harm less means of washing out of the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowe'5 the indiges- tible material, waste. sour bile and toxins
 Millions of people who had their turn at constipation, bilious attacks, acid stomach, nervous days and sleep less nights have become real cranks about the morning inside-bath.

 He came in on a stretcher-face all bruised and swollen. eyes protrud- ing, all full of mud and bits of stone There wasn't an inch of his body with out its own bruise or cut.
 He'd been standing in a muddy place and big obus had bumped into the ground just in front of him, and then, from couple ,of feet down, had gone off and up. As he opened his eyes the doctor said to him: You must have had a pretty rough passage
