Continued agitation against the high

seek means Of gaining natural complex

she will soon have the kind of complexion
that women envy and men admire. It's
SO easy to get an ounce of mercolized wax

cream and wash it off mornings. And the
results are SO remarkable. Gradually the
lifeless cuticle peels off. in almost invisible
flaky particles. In week or so there's n
brand new complexion, clear, velvety, soft,

The treatment is so simple. harmless,
and so marveously effective. the wonder
is that every woman whose skin is with
cred, discolored, rough. freckled or pim-
pied, has not already adopted it.-Adv.

 France while in the American air ser. vice.
 The public career of the man who was to become President began nor
 long after he left college. His profes- sion was law but the activities that
 were to come left him no time in
 which to practise it. In 1882, and 1S
 S4. he was elected to the New York States Assembly. where his efforts on
 behalf of good government and civil service reform attracted attention. When the Republican National Con- vention of 1884 was held, in Chicago,
 he was chairman of the New York State delegation.
 After this experience he dropped out of politics for two years. Going west. he purchased ranches along the little Missouri River. in North Dako- ta. and divided his time between out door sports. particularly hunting, and
 literary work. Here he laid the foundation for his series of books,
 "The Winning of the West" which was published from 1889 to 1896. and of other volumes of kindred charac- ter.
 Returning to New York he became Candidate for Mayor, in 1888. He was defeated, President Harrison in 1889 appointed him n member of the Uni ted States Civil Service Commission and President Cleveland continued
 him in his office. which he resigned in 1895 to become New York City's police commissioner.
 Honesty was the watchword of this administration. and the two years of
 his occupancy became memorable through the reforms he inaugurated, attracting the nations attention while holding position which was obscure in comparison with the events to come. The attention he attracted in
 this position won him the post of As-
 sistant Secretary of the Navy in 1897. The following year the Spanish Ameri- can War broke out.
 The Roosevelt temperament did not fallow the man to retain deputy Cabinet positiop-- with war offering
 something more exciting. Leonard Wood, now Major General in France, was then President McKin- ley's physician and one of Roosevelt B I staunchest friends The famous Rough Riders were or- yanized by Wood and Roosevelt--a
