One LITTLE PIMPLE

No matter how perfect the features,
how radiant the complexion, just one
little pimple Will spoil II all
Not always can these little facial
blemishea be prevented, for they may
be caused by the too frequent use OF
irritating soaps, powders. rouge or
possibly impure blood.
Every caro- should he taken to pre-
serve tho skin, especially the face,
neck. arms and hands. Only the pur-
est and best stcrilizcd toilet soap
should be used To cleanse the skin,
and when face powder must be en-
ploycd, one of the highest quality
should be selected.
When pimple pops out on your
face you don't have to remain indoors
or try to hide 1t. Simply touch the
little spot with BLACK and WHITE;
Ointment and 1t will vanish almost
like magic. This little mid to beauty
should be kept on every woman's
dressing table, because II Is q neces-
sary toilet requisite for removing
other facial blemishcs. such as rough.
blotchy. sallow skin. The way it
clears tho complexion is marvellous.
BLACK and WHITE Scan should
always be used with the Ointment.

La gracia es algo sensible, algo que

SULTAN FEARS F0RSAFETY0F
 HIS SUBJECTS

CONSTAN IINOPLE, Jan IA (by As sociated Press) of Constanti- nople call the sultan, Mehmed VI, "a nice, harmless old man." Mehmed VI is the last enemy emperor left, the man whose temporal possessions are at stake in the making of peace.
 The padishah, or father of all the covereigns of the earth,'' is short, gray-haired, rather stoop-shouldered, dark-eyed, with short, white mustache set under the characteristic peaked nose of the Turk. Bereft of good counsellors, worried by the actions of Moustapha Renal Pasha, leader of the SNationalists, Mehmed is in quandary as to how to save his people and his throne. At that he doesn't worry too much, thanks to the pervading Oriental spirit of fatalism.
 Every Friday, the Turkish Sunday, e crowd of Mussulman pilgrims and foreigners gathers to see him go to prayer. The ceremony takes place outside the palace gates of Yildlz, on the hills of Pera, just above the Bos- phorus There are the sultan's off, >cial offices and also his harem, in "a flower garden, part of an immense park.
 The sultan, wearing a fez, comes into view riding slowly in an open phaeton, preceded by a single horse man and followed on foot by dozen or more of his red-fezzed suite dressed in black frock coats and trou sors in the European style.
 The sultan bows right and left, in response to the acclamatiOns, looks towards the terrace where are ranged the foreigners, and bows pleasantly to them The distance to the mosque is passed, then at the door of the mosque he steps out; from the interior is heard a chant of a male chorus, and he disappears. Directly the gen eral Mussulman public is permitted to enter at another door of the mosque to take part in the prayers, which con tinue for half hour. Meanwhile the foreign visitors disperse; their curi osity in the successor of the prophet satisfied.
