What Causes Wrinkles?
What's The Remedy?

Stop to consider what produces wrinkles
and sagginess of skin Premature aging,
mal-nutrition etc, cause the flesh to
shrink, lose its youthful plumpness and
firmness. The skin then is too large for
the flesh underneath; doesn't fit tightly
and snugly as it used tot wrinkles or
says.
1t must be plain that to tighten the
skin, make it fit the face perfectly in every
place, will effeotuaily remove the hateful
wrinkles and bagginess. This is easily
and harmlessly accomplished by dissolving
an ounce of pure powdered saxolite in a
half pint of witch hazel and using the solu-
ton as face wash. The ingredients you
can get at any drug store. of course. The
results are surprising. The skin immedi-
ately tightens up, becoming firm and fresh
as in youth. Every wrinkle and sag are
affected at Once.-Adv.

ANTESUFFRAG|STS ARE VICTORIOUS IN
 NORTH CAROLINA
Amendment Ratification Resolution Tabled By Mar gin of Only Two Votes
 In the Senate
By Associated Prsss


 Raleigh N. C., August 1I.-National en- franchisement of women apparently was defeated in North Carolina today, so far as the coming election is concerned. Op- ponents of equal suffrage, long victorious here, were successful in one of the most L;tterly fought contests ever staged Tn the state senate.
 Their success was measured by the narrow margin of two votes, the count being 5 to 23 but it was sufficient to lay on the table resolution to ratfy the federal suffrage amendment. It post poned action until the next regular ses- sirn in 1921.
 Suffrage leaders. however, may make another try tomorrow.
 They may attempt to recall the resolu- tion, but even the leaders were not con- fiient this could be done
 To make their victory complete, the antis planned tonight to bring up suf frage in the lower house upder special order of business tomorrow
 Representative Neal, anti-suffragist floor leader in the house, said they ex- pected to "call it up and kill it right"
 END COMES SUDDENLY
 The end of the contest came suddenly. at time whtn suffrage supporters were confident of victory in the upper cham Der of the legislature They were not prepared to counter the plan of Senator Warren, anti-suffrage flcor leader, and were pushed back by clever maneuvering. At the end of day of heated debate, punctuate1 by charges and counter charges, some of which were Vitriolic, Senator Scales, suffrage. leader, an nounced he was ready for vote The commander of the opposition forces was recognized by Lieutenant Governor Gard ner, and he began the introduction or the resolution which burst the programme of the ratificationists asunder
 The roll call, which followed. closed he case.
 Suffrage leaders attributed their de- feat to weak kneeds senators who were unable to determine the course which their constituents would have them take.
 There had been half dozen votes which neither side counted definitely and which neither was able to commit unreservedly.
 Their opportunity came to avoid declaration at this time by voting to postpone action until after the coming election, into which the question has now been thrown as state issue.
 ANTS ARE HILARIOUS
 Anti i-suffragists were hilarious. They marched from the old state house in

Recognition Not
 Promised Mexico
 By United States
sy As,ooiated Pns.

Washington, August 1.-The three pro- posals given in Mexico City dispatches as precedent to recognition of the pres ent Mexican government by the United States "are only few of the conditions announced by this government" accord ing to a state department official. It is true that three conditions-respect for American lives and property, indemnities paid foreigners who suffered during the revolution. and derogation of the con- fiscatory decrees of Carranza-are among the conditions laid down, but perform ances of duties instead of mere prom ises" is put above all conditions, it was said.
 Recognition has not been promised Mexico under any conditions, it was au- thoritatively stated today
 The state department is inclined to await developments in Mexico before granting recognition to see how stable a government the present regime is able to establish, and to what extent it is will ing to perform by actual deeds the inter- national obligations Of a civilized state.
