To Regain a Healthy,
Girlish Complexion

If you would have a clear, fresh,
girlish complexion, one ounce of
ordinary mercolized wax will aid you
in this direction more than shelves
full Of cosmetics. 1t produces a natural
beauty. This wax, procurable at any
drugstore, completely absorbs a bad
complexion, revealing the healthy
young skin underneath. It's work is
done so gradually, day by day, that no
inconvenience is caused The wax is
applied at night like cold cream, and
removed in the morning with soap and
water.
Another valuable rejuvenating treat
ment-this for wrinkles-is to battle
your face in a solution of powdered
saXolite, one ounce, dissolved in half
pint Of witch hazel This has a re-
markable action in smoothing out the

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION
in GUATEMALA TO AID
AMERICAN COMMERCE
(By Associated Press)

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Sept 24.-The
recent presidential election In Guate-
mala will have a beneficial effect upon
commercial interests in the United
States, says DR.. Edwin r. Heath, Of
Kansas City, Kansas, consul stationed
here for Guatemala and Bolivia and
consul general for Honduras and Mic
aTagua.
American investors in Guatemala
are fortunate In the recent election to
the presidency Of Guatemala of Carlos
Herrera by an overwhelming majority
after the enforced withdrawal of Don
Manuel Cabrera" Dr. Heath said.
Cabrera was another Diaz. While he
had done much for his country, he had
been an autocrat for many years. and
would not allow another candidate for
president to be presented. The new
president is much more in sympathy
with Americans and American ideals.
Need Understanding.
There is a great need of a better
understanding between the United
States and the republics Of Central
and South America. The most crying
need Is for improved mail service.
United States mail Is very uncertain
In South America. Steamship COM
panies have fulfilled their contracts
when the mail has been unloaded on
the wharf and distribution is left large
1y to chance. Improved consular serv-
ice and better shipping facilities from
the United States to South America
are greatly needed.
American commercial interests need
statesmen educated in the language
and diplomacy required to carry on
trade with South American people.
South Americans prefer our manufac-
lures, but their difficulty Is to get sat
1sfactory service. Great railway pro-
5ects are under way in Bolivia which
, will open up the head-waters of the
Amazon, Paraguay and other parts of
central South America. These will be
financed partly by citizens of the Unit
ed States, but their progress is tenn
porarily checked by internal disorders
in Bolivia"
DR.. Heath is fellow of the Royal
Geographical Society of London and a
noted South American explorer. In
his explorations he discovered the Rio
Madre de Dios and opened up valuable
rubber forests in Bolivia and Brazil.
A river which forms part of the bound
airy between Bolivia and Peru is nam

daily schedule, and the concessions
will be worth while, as usual
Great Educational Exhibit.
An educational and school exhibit,
surprising the genuinely good one of
last year, is promised by Supt Fogar-
ty, of the county board Of education.
Merchants are anxious to get all posi-
Bile space for their wares, and it is a
certainty that the agricultural exhibit
will be large and interesting
Work of preparation has been
pushed to the limit Stock pens have
been gone over and new ones added
and there is signs of growth and great
er facilities on every hand.
A great many people look forward
to the Eaton fair for their annual out
ing. These will be out in large num-
bers this year, and the management
promises that they will not be in the
show.

Alkali In Soap
Bad For the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully,
if you want to keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and pre- pared
shampoos contain too much a,kali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo (Which
is pure and greaseless), and is better
than anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonsful of mulsi.
fled will cleanse the hair and scalp
thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair
with water and rub it in. 1t makes
an abundance of rich, creamy lather
which rinses ont easily, removing
every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves the
scalp soft, and the hair fine and silky
bright, lustrous. fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil
shampoo at any pharmacy, it's very
cheap, and few ounces will supply
ecery member of the family for
months. Be sure your druggist gives
you d.-Advertisement.

improved Fire Department

The recent purchase of combina-
ton chemical and hose wagon by the
city Of Gardiner and its installation in
the hear of the city building is a fine
step toward better service by the Gar
diner fire department. Gardiner is
rather proud. and justly so. of her
volunteer fire laddies and the service
they render.
The new apparatus has already
been described in these columns so
that a further description is unneces-
sary. But along with the new ma
chine are other things that may not
be generally known. OF course it is
necessary to have driver for the
machine and Albert c. Hinckley has
been appointed to this position with
James +. Wakefield as assistant.
Modest and scrvicablc uniforms have
been provided these men and comfor-
table quarters have been fitted up
over the machines quarters. One
man is on duty all of the time and
both of them most of tho time. Each
man has every other evening from 6
to 10 off duty.
This new service makes it possible
to avoid sounding the alarm and
bringing out the entire department
when a small fire. such as chimney
fire or other incipient blaze occurs.
a telephone has been installed in
the chemical house with a connecting
bell in the sleeping quarters. The
number is Asa and when fire is
discovered unless ii has gained con
sidcra bic Roadway this number should
be called either by day o" night. The
chemical is fitted with modern fire
fighting apparatus and in vast ma
iority of cases fires can be distin-
guished by its use. Please remember,
in case of fire call 454.
