Very Effective Method
 for Banishing Hairs
(Modes of Today)

At very little cost any woman can rid her face of hairy growths if she will use the delatone treatment. This is made by mixing some water with a little powdered delatone. This paste is spread upon the hairy surface for or 3 minutes, then rubbed off and the skin washed, when every trace of hair will have vanished. No harm results from this treatment, but care should be used to buy real delatone

The advantages of this Sale of Household Linens are greater than appear on the surface. We are very proud of our Linen De- partment and take great care that no unworthy goods ever find a resting place there.
 It is not generally known, but it is fact, that linens are higher in price today than at any time since the opening of the world war-and it will be months and possibly years be- fore they can be much lower. A large American buyer who recently visited England and Scotland in search of linens re- turned without buying a dollars worth of merchandise. He re- ported that he had found whole sale prices higher than he was asking foS his stocks at retail. Everything considered, we feel that we are fortunate in having this splendid stock of Linens to offer OUT patrons-we likewise feel that our patrons will be equally fortunate if they take advantage of this opportunity.

B0LSREWk CITY IN RUSSIA SAID TO
 BE UNINvITlNG

Omsk, seat of the government head ed by Admiral kcIchak, as temporary dictator, to which the Archangei. southern Russia, and other anti-BoI- shevk groups have pledged co-opera- ton is. an historic city, despite it's comparative isolation, according to a Bulletin of the National Geographic society.
 . "Located on the lrtuisk river, long CT than the better known Vo1ga and approximately as Icne as the Missis- sippi, omsk. erswhIe seat of govern ment of the steppes region cf west Siberia, under the n1onarchy was the crossroads of the routes to central Russia, orenburg and Turkestan.
 "lt lies along the trans-Siberian railway, running from Moscow to Viadivostok, a 5Ss5-mie journey tax ing 13 days, formerly made in an ex- press train equipped with bath rooms dispensary and library.
 Amid the ruins of an old fort. be- hind the museum of the Imperial Rus sian Geographical society, stood, until few years ago, the houses in which the famous Russian novelist, Feodor Dostoievsky, spent his -four years of civil war.
 Here Dostoievsky wrote his Siber ian novel, 'RecolIections of Dead House, translated into English under the title Buried Alive in Siberia which is the Little Dorrit' of the Siberian exiles. Indeed his subjects and characters have been compared to those Of Dickens, though his treat nnents is far more grim. Out of his experience with criminals while at Oms'e also came his Crime and Punishment, in which, with semiprc phetic vision, he pictured future Russian people freed from bonds of force but united by ties of mutual trust and kindness.

 "The Omsk museum was principal point of interest for tourists. because Of its collection of ethnoloecai relics of the steppes, or barren plains of western Sibers, which includes many prehictcric specimens.
 "Long a cossack center, the Siberian cohsacks 'ound omsk a convenient rallyins place to resist the Bolshevik Influences which appealed strongly to foreign or mixed element in Russia that has no counterpart in Siberia.

AMERICAN WAYS TAKEN BACK HOME
 BY IMMIGRANTS

Arnold J. Toynbee, English histor- ian and one of the investigators of Turkish atrocities in Armenia, writing the history of Greece in a new his tory of the Balkans. published by the oxford Press. holds out the possibli- ty that the mixed and warning races of Southeast Europe may be brought to 3 more peaceabe consideration of each other through their common ex- perience as emiarants to America. This common experience, he says, may ,lavc an important part in keeping the ecce in that part of the world. where She spark was struck which set the world conflagration. How this influ- ence works, Mir. Toynbee shows as follows:
 "Since the opening of the present century, the chaotic, unneighborly rae es of Southeastern Europe, whom no- thing had united before but the com. mon impress of the Turk, have begun to share another Experience in com, non-America. From the Slovak viii lages in the Carpathians to the Greek villages in the Laconian hills, they have been crossing the Atlantic in and tavvles, bootblaeks and walters, confectioners and barbers in Chicago, St. Louis, Omaha and all the other cities that have sprung up like magic to welcome the immigrant to the hos pitable plains of the Middle West.
 "The intoxication of his new envir- onment stimulates all the latent indus try and vitality Of the Balkan peasant and he abandons himself wholehearted- Iy to American life; yet he does not reiinquish the national tradition in which he grew up. In America work brings wealth, and the Greek or SIo- yak soon Worships his God in fin CT church and reads his language in a better printed newspaper than he ever enjoyed in his native village. The surplus flows nome in remittances of , such abundance that they are steadily raising the cost cig living in the Bal. kans themselves, or, in other words, i-the standard of material civilization.
 "it is strange experience to spend night in some remote noun. tain village cf Greece, and see A. merlcapism and Hellenisn face to face. Heilenism is represented by the village schooImaster. He wears q black coat, talks little French, and can probably read Homer. but his longest journey has been to the nor nal school at Athens, and it has not altered his belief that the ikon in the fneiahborine monastery was made by St. Luke and the euIqar beyond the mountain by the devil.
 "On the other side of you sits the returned emigrant, chattering irrepres sib!y in his queer version of the American language and showing you the newspapers which are mailed to him every fortnight from the States. His clean linen collar and his WeIl-made American boots are cons picuous upon him and he will depre- cate on your behalf and his own the discomfort and squaor of his native surroundings. His homecoming has been disilIusionment, but it is creative phenomencn; and if any one can set Greece on a new path it is he. He is transforming her material life by his American savings. for they are accommodating into capital wide. ly distributed in native hands, which

something, no one seemed to know
what: II the American went to Canada
he might be cpnscripted, put in prison.
or in his attempt to cross the border he
would meet with innumerable difficult
ties, most Of which, of course, was I'M
true. These unlruths were circulated
for purpose by an element. which, II
was discovered had an interest In TO
menting and creating trouble and dis
trust between two peoples whose lam
guage and aims in life should be any
thing but of an unfrlendly character.
The draft law of the United States
adopted for the carrying out Of the
high purposes had in view by the Unit
ed States kept many from going to
Canada during the period Of the war.
The citizen army of the Unlted.StateS
was quickly modified, and contained
a large percentage of the young men
from the farms. In this way many
were prevented from going to Canada.
That is all over now. There are no
real or imaginary restrictions; there Is
no draft law to interfere. On the con-
trary there Is an unfathOmable depth
of good feeling, and the long existing
friendship is stronger than ever. This
has been brought about by the knowl-
edge of what has been done in the re-
cent great struggle, each vying with
the other in giving credit for what was
accomplished. In thought and feeling.
in language, in aims in life In work.
in desire to build UP a new world.
there has been bred a kinship which Is
as indissoluble as time itself.-Adver-
tisement.

and the United States, Mr. Tsuruml
continued: SIN the hardships and
prlvations of the winter campaign in
Siberia, sharing fortunes and misfor
tune, probably even sharing clothes
and food, the soldiers of America and
Japan will come to know each other
for what they are. When the armies
return home each will spread stories
of the other; the Japanese will say
that American boys are happy, genial
fighters, and the Americans will say
that the Japanese are kindly, we'll

undeveloped areas yet open to settle
ment.
There Is little need here to direct
attention to the wealth that has come
to the farmers of Canada within the
past few years. II Is not only in grain
growing that unqualified and almost
unequaled success has followed hon
est effort, but the raising of horses,
cattle, sheep and hogs has been large
source of profit. These are facts that
are well known to the many friends
and acquaintance of the thousands of
farmers from the United States who
have acquired wealth on the pralries
of Western Canada. Farms of from
one hundred and sixty TO six hundred
and forty acres of the richest soil may
be secured on reasonable terms, and
with an excellent climate, with a school
system equal to any in the world, and
desirable social conditions, little else
could be asked.
Canadian statesmen are today busily
engaged planning for the future of the
returned soldier with view to making
him Independent Of state help after
the immediate necessary assistance has
been granted, the main idea being to
show in the fullest degree the country's
rendered.
But, now that the war IS ended and
the fact apparent that of all avOcatiOus
the most profitable and independent
is that of the farmer, there will be
strong desire to secure farm lands for
cultivation. Canada offers the oppor-
tunity to those seeking, not as specula-
ton but as production. The deepest
interest is taken by Federal and Pro-
vincial authorities to further the well
fare of the farmer and secure maxi
mum return for his efforts. Large
sums of money are spent in educational
and experimental work. Engaged in
Experimental and Demonstration
farms, and in the agricultural colleges,
are men of the highest technical knowl-
edge and practical experience, some be-
| ing professors of international reputa-
ton. The results of experiments and
tests are free and available to ALL Ed
ucational opportunities for farmers are
the concern of the Government and
appreciation is shown by the number Of
farmers who attend the free courses.
Agriculture in Canada has reached 4
high standard, Notwithstanding which
lands are low in price.
Thus upon the United States and
Canada for many years will rest the
great burden of feeding the world.
With free interchange of travel, diff
culties of crossing and recrossing re-

resumption of the large influx of set
tiers from the United States which pre-
vailed previous to the war. During

LEGAL DESTRUCTION OF WILL

Judge Crosby OF the supreme court
