ONE LITTLE PIMPLE
SPOILS A
BEAUTIFUL FACE,

No matter how perfect the fea lures,
how radiant the complexion, just one
little pimpIe will spoil it all.
Not always can these little facial blem-
ishes be prevented for they may be
ing soaps, powders, rouge or possibly i'm
pure blood.
Every care should be taken to pre-
serve the skin. especially the face, neck
arms and hands. Only the purest and
best sterized toilet soap should be used
to cleanse the skin. and when a face
powder must be employed, one of the
highest quality should be selected.
When a pimple pops out on your face,
YOU don't have to remain indoors or try
TO hide it Simply touch the little spot
with BLACK and WHITE Ointment and
it will vanish almost like magic This
little aid to beauty should be kept on
every woman's dressing table, because it
is a necessary toilet requisite for re-
moving other facial blemishes such as
rough. blotchy sallow skin. The way ii
clears the complexion is marvellous.
BLACK and WHITE Soap should al
ways be used with the Ointment. Both
are sold and guaranteed by all good
drug stores at 25e each a package, or the
manufacturers will send post paid on re-
ceipt OF soc.

ment literature and BLACK and WHITE

and even went further by trying to
force the United States Senate 10 com
plete our entry. He continues that
senator Harding says IN plain words
that we should stay out. He is'right
there for Senator Harding cares more
for the growth OF the United States I;
he cares more for the lives OF our
American boys and for the taxpay-
ers' money than he does for mix

Ruth
Yes, Ruth, you realize better than
many grown people the fact that the
world club is club OF War and not
a club OF peace. You have listened
and have learned for about year
the many. many bad things about this
club plan. But before election day
most OF the voters OF This country
VIII realize that the best way TO keep
this country In continual trouble /;
the best way to spend our money
on EurolNan countries and Kill our
boys on European soil is TO vote
for James NJ. Cox. Just think OF
il children, Gov. Cox thinks we ought
TO be proud to pay one-thlrd OF
the cost OF any war lust TO be allow
ed to belong to a World Club that
would have thirty members and In
which we would have but one vote :
That Is just what his speech amounts
TO so far as the world, club goes.
when Senator Harding made his
speech he pomised peace Just as soon
as a Republican Congress could
pass Il for a Republican President
TO sign. lie wants peace, real peace,
with Germany at once, and he does
not intend TO have II at the expense
OF Joining a world club. Mr.. Cox does
not know how to argue against Sena-
tor Hardings thought In this matter.
All he was able 10 do In his speech
was TO say nasty things. In fact he
called the Republican proposal one
that means, 'dishonor, world confus-

asked Ruth.
HE spoke on Saturday, August Z.
at Dayton. Ohio. after a long parade
and a speech by Senator Robinson.
Everything was staged like a theatrical
performance, but they had the people

see what that means, Riddles. He
speakes Of President Wilson as our
representative at the peace table. He
was our representative only because
he appointed himself TO 20. and the

country to take up foreign business

REVOLUTIONARY IN CHARACTER.
18th Amendment to Constitution So
Declared.

Washington, ID. c., March 29.-The
18th amendment to the constitution
known as the prohibition amendment
is legislative in nature and revolution
airy in character, according to Attor-
ney General Thomas r. McCran OF
New Jersey, in opening his argument
before the United States supreme court
in New Jerseys suit to have the
amendment declared void and the Vol
stead act unconstitutional. Eight
points were raised and discussed in the
argument,
Attorney General McCran's brief de-
clared that the 18th amendment was
not tonsbitutionally proposed; that the
proposal is subject to judicial review;
that Congress did not by ~two-thirds
in numbers of both Houses, afirma.
lively vote for the proposal of the res
olution; that three fourths of the
states have not ratified in the eonstitu.
tional sense.
The brief also declared that the ma
tional prohibition act is not a%ppropri-
ate legislation; that there Is no right
in Congress to legislate outside the
words Of the amendment that the
words beverage purposes sufficiently
describes the limit within which Con
gress will legislate and that the term
Intoxicating liquors is its own def
milton; that the Volstead law fixing
the standard is oppressive and uncon-
stitutional; that the Volstead law is
unconstitutional in that it attempts to
interfere with the right of physicians
and druggists to furnish liquor; that
the institutions owned and conducted
by the state of New Jersey are ham
pered and strieted by the arbitrary act
of Congress.
The brief also stated that the 18th
amendments to the constitution prior
to the 18th prohibition amendment
are subjects relating TO the structure
and form of the government and are
not amendments revolutionary in char
acter and which deprive the states of
their sovereign powers.
In a supplemental brief filed by New
Jerseys attorney general, an entirely
novel point is made: That the right
to amend the constitution is a right
of the people of the United States
and distinguished from the people Of
a particular state; that the people of
the United States have only national
powers, the police power being re-
served to the states, and the right of
internal police being a right of the peo-
pie of New Jersey over which the peo-
Pile Of the United States have no CON
troll. This right may not be taken
from them without their consent /"
