NEW HOPE FOR DEMOCRATS

If the women are given the vote' there are likely to be three more democratic senators in the United sStates senate than there would have been. otherwise. Brandegee of Con necSicut Moses of New Hampshire and Wadsworth of New York were relentiess foes of 'votss for wo- men.s They are up for reelection and the chances are that women' being women, will not forget. Three democrats from states where three republicans were considered certain ties would help give Cox a nice working majority in the senate II the Ohio governor is elected. He must have democratic house and senate to accomplish anything. The republican senate successfully block Cd MT. Wilson. It will successfully block MT. Cox if permitted to re- main republican.

SAYS SENATOR HARDING.

ssThe senate saved American na- stionality In 1919 and 1920." declared Senator Harding, "when the demo- cfatic executive proposed to surren- der it.. If republican president is chosen next November you can be certxin tihat the senate will have have something to say about the for eign relations as the constitution contemplated"
 The above statement from the Ohio senator commes nearer than anything else he has said to being g flat-footed unquestioned statement of of his stand in regard to the lea gue of nations.
 In speaking directly of the league, Senator Harding covers his thought in such camouflage of indefinite words that it is difficult to tell what he means. When he speaks of the senate and the president, however, lie shows more clearly how he re- gards the league of nations.
 This statement from MT. Harding, like others he has made, in the words X of an unbiased critic, "makes you alnost want to see him elected, just U rec what he would do"

 Hold Americans Captured In Korea

Washington, Aug. 20.-Cabled re- ports from Tokio that plot to "hold" the party of American con gressmen now visiting the Far East when they arrived in Korea had been unearthed, were characterized today by Kiuse Kimm, chairman of the Korean commission, as another groundless Japanese fabrication"
 .sNo sane or even insane Korean would dream of holding the Ameri- can congressional party MT. Kimm declared, not only because of the absurdity of such an action, but be- cause the Koreans are extremely anx- ious at this time to gain the sym. pathy and moral support of the out side world.' What was planned, he said, was to present a memorial te the party, and he quoted dispatches to Japanese vernacular newspapers as showing that this, object was well understood in Tokio.

The Treatment of Acne.

Acne is always stubborn dls ease, but with patient and lntelil gent treatment it can be cured; re- lapses are common when the causa- tive conditions return. To be sue cessful, the treatment of acne must mbrace both constitutional and local measures. The constitutional treat ment includes, diet, hygiene, and ln- tcrnal medication. Certain articles of food almost invariably produce ac- ne in some individuals; the articles having this special tendency are buckwheat, pastry, hot bread, nuts. cheese, chocolate, fried substances. also milk; it is generally necessary to cut off many of the so-called lux uries of life; among them, wines and beer. also sweet and rich articles of food. Exercise is all-important, and tha proper care of the skin by bath ing and otherwise must never be neg lected.
 There is no one internal remedy which will have any great and per- manent effect upon all cases of acne; arsenic will not cure the disease The measures to be used are those dl- rected principally to the restoration of perfect health, and to the removal of assimilative and nutritive debility often shown by constipation and dys- pepsia, also urinary and sexual dis turbances.
 The constipation is to be met by measures which induce healthful ac' tivity of the abdominal organs, and not simply by repeated purgatives o' by mineral waters.
 For the dyspepsia, the most variee measures may be required; a cup o. hot water, taken half an hour before eating, will, often be of the greates assistance. { In, a large number Q. cases of acne, however, alkalies vii be found to yield the best results combined with various vegetable rem edies. In a certain number of case the acne will depend almost en. tirely upon pure debility, and pow erful, tonicsi will be called for. s4lThe greatest benefit is observed in all the ihflammatory forms O acne from the local use of very ho water, conjoined with other treat ment.
