 Mexico City, Nov. 19-Prohibition- ists, whose cause has taken a fearful slump in Mexico, are to receive the help of prominent women in MeXi- co. An anti-alcohol society has been formed by the women here and plans are on foot for the organization of similar societies in various parts of the country.
 A few weeks ago it looked as though prohibition had gained a strong foothold in Mexico. Then it was discovered that prohibition did not mix well with Mexican politics.
 When it was decided to cE,se the cantinas and other drinking places there was approval in "upper circles, . where there was conviction that .here should be less drinking among the peons Moralists talked of the disappearance from :he land of the Tottecs in ancient days, because of the havoc wrought by pulque.
 But when the cantinas were ordered to close their doors from Saturday at noon until the following Monday and hotels were forbidden to sell liquors during the same weekly dry period. This brought protest from upper circles the members of tinas. but profoundly enjoying their bottle of wine or cognac in more re- lined surroundings.
 The government would not venture - favor the wealthy by modifying the dry regulations. It might have meant revolution if the cantinas had been kept closed on week-ends and the restaurants and hotels had been permitted to remain wet"
 The dry" regulations were impar- italy enforced, as far as anything can be forced, impartial1y in Mexico i but the wet pressure was so strong that there was a sudden return to the old system and all drinking places remain open now throughout the

Any breaking out of the skin on face, neck, arms or body is overcome quickest by applying Mentho-Sul- phur. The pimp1es seem to dry right up and go away, declares a noted skin specialist.
 Nothing has ever been found to take the place of sulphur as pim- pie remover. It is harmless and in- expensive Just ask any druggist for a. small jar of ntho-Sulphur and use it like cold cream.-AdV.

The first users of radium ore were
the Indians of Utah. In pref Columbian
times they employed it (the stuff now
known as "carnotite'O to paint their
bodies bright canary yellow.
No work on eminent painters ought

1t is suspected that the first coat
worn by man was coat of paint. But
the early American artist, when he
had adorned himself like a rainbow,
the final touch, perhaps, being to make
the lower half of his face red and the
upper half green, did by no means
stop at that.
He painted weird pictures on rocks
and the faces of cliffs. He painted his
wooden house. or his tepee, with sym
bolic and descriptive designs. He
painted his shield and bow and arrows
He painted monstrous masks (worn in
ceremonials) and also his pottery.
Most Precious to Indians.
The most precious of all things to
the Indians-who even nowadays have
not lost their talent in this direction
was paint. A deposit Of mineral pig

Not long ago an important deposit
of ore was opened at Leslie, Mo-, and
mining operations disclosed the fact
that much digging had anciently been
done there by the Indians-not fot
iron but for iron oxide contained in
seams and pockets. For the oxide
they had burrowed in all directions
even to depth of % feet.
Trade was extensively developed in
early days among the Indian tribes,
and doubtless the pigment produced
by this mine was distributed over q
vast territory. The miners employed
