To have the sujerfuous hairs come
out, roots and all, before ones very
eyes, sounds almost too good to be
true. Yet many thousands of women
have proved to their own satisfaction
that this can be accomplishments
quickly, harmlessly-by means Of the
wonderful phelactine process.
This method is not to be compared
at all with any liquid. powder or
paste, nor with electrolysis or any
thing else. Nothing like it ever orig

Phelactine is non-odorous, non-irri-

phelactine from your druggist today,
follow the simple instructions, and
you will have a most agreeable sur

viii Not Visit Mexico.

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Jan. 10
Senator Albert b. Fail, chairman OF
| the senate sub committee inrestigat-
ing Mexican affairs on the border to-
day declined to accept the invitation
OF Luis Cabrera. minister of finance
/ of the Carranza government to visit
Mexico.
! Cabrera's invitation included in a
message from Mexico City, offered a
special train for Falls personal use
to conduct the investigation. He ten
dered the invitation, not to Senator
Fall as an official, he said, but to MIR.
FALL" an American citizen.
Cabrera suggested the personal tour
of Mexico would yield other facts
than an official investigation of the
Mexican situation through the keyhole
OF the door distorted by the lenses Of
prejudice"
Senator Fall disclaimed any but
friendly interests toward the Mexican
people and reiterated the purpose OF
the committee to learn the real truth
about Mexico. The proposed visit, he
said, as an American citizen would
subject it to criticism as a partial in
vestigator.
Fail regretted that under the con-
stitution and laws of the United
States he was unable to extend
reciprocal courtesy Of a special train
from government funds.
He offered, however, to furnish
Transportation from any border city
to any American city, he said.
The messages were read into records
of the meetings.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service. !
CHICAGO, Jan. 15.-The govern
ment should not interfere in the
clothing industry to the extent Of
fixing prices, H. r. Figg, special as
sistant TO Attorney General Palmer,
told the conference of National Retail
Clothiers' association here today.
Clothing prices can be reduced
through cooperation between the
various branches of the industry"
Figg said. Representatives of cloth
manufacturers told me last week that
If cooperation could be arranged
prices on the finished product could
be reduced rs to 80 percent.
II do not want to see prices re-
duced to prewar levels because that
would mean reducing the price of
labor In the same proportion. Prices
should be reduced, however, to con-
form with labor values in the after
the-war period" @
