CARE OF THE SKIN

Perhaps the first thing we notice
II woman is her complexion. and
She is very apt to be conscious 81 1t,
too. No complexion must De neg

There are AL different sorts OF
compilations. There is the dry, the
normal and the oily, and each has
To be treated in s. different way
What may help one complexion may
harm another. Study your skin first
and then treat it accordingly.
If your skin is dry and harsh and
lacks natural transparency the
chances are you have been washing
your face too often and using a soap
That contains too much alkaH. or
maybe 1t IS the result of hard water.
which is so injurious to the skin.
dard water should be boiled and a
few drops of tincture of benzoin or
q tablespoonful of bicarbonate Of
soda added. Every woman, even
though she may have perfect com
piexlon, ought to use this formula
1t will preserve good skin as well
as improve 2 poor one.
Rough skin may also be due to the
weather conditions. Sharp. dr.,
winds, and either extreme heat or
cold, have tendency to produce
dryness and harshness of the skin.
Washing the face with soap and
water had best be discontinued for
a time. Use good cream exclu-
slvely In connection with the right
kind Of a skin-toning lotion. Do MOI
rub hard, but gently with upward
strokes. Let the cream remain or

Then remove with a soft cloth. It i

WATER REACHED FIRE
Is SECONDS AFTER
ALARM FRIDAY NIGHT

The building housing the city incin-
orator plant in the eastern part Of
town was destroyed by fire about Z
o'clock Friday night.
Chief Bailey states that origin of the
fire has not been determined, but be-
lieves that slumbering sparks were fan
ned into flames after the man in
charge Of the plant had locked the
place for the night.
The furnace was not damaged to
any great extent, and the walls OF
the building are still serviceable, how
ever. all tho woodwork was destroyed,
before the fire was finally extin-
guished.
The chief states that he had no
trouble whatever In getting water.
and asserts that full pressure was
obtained from the city mains i5
seconds after the alarm had been
turned In. This disproves the rumors
which have been current about town
that II would require a long time
for full pressure to be obtained from
the mains after 1t is turned on.

FORMESR REPUBLICAN EXECU
TIVE SAYS STUBBORNNESS
HAS WRECKED HOPE OF
ADOPTION OF LEAGUE

Seattle. Wash, Oct. 12.-Former
President Taft. when shown a state
ment made public by Governor Cox at
Springfield, ILL.,. last night, said he
recently had given permission for the
publication of correspondence between
President Wilson and himself during
the drafting of the league of nations
covenant. He also declared he had re-
peatedly referred to the fact that the
president discussed with him when
drawn and that there was no element
OF secrecy about the substance Of the
communications exchanged.
when the subject of publishing the
correspondence between President
Wilson and myself was broached to
me by an emissary of the White
House, 1 promptly said to go ahead"
Mr.. Taft said.
II had freqpentl yreferred to hte
correspondence myself and would pos
sibly have published 1t, II it had been
my business TO do so.'
Declaring he had favored accept
ance of league without reservations
and expressing disappointment that
the United States has not become a
party to it," Mr.. Taft held the pres
ident responsible for defeat Of the
plan.
1.-THE president wrecked his own
league" he said. "Ho wrecked 1t with
Article X. OF which he is the author.
Personally / would stand for Article
Y, because | am exceedingly anxious
for a league to be established. At the
same time the league to enforce peace
of which l was chairman, had no Ar
ticle Y in its proposition.
1T has been clearly demonstrated
that the representatives of the people
OF this country will not stand for Ar
ticle y. The subbornness OF the pres
ident in refusing to accept endorse
ment by the senate of the league COW
enant, without Article X, defeated
the treaty.
Now Mr.. Cox has swallowed Ar
ticle Y, and declared that as a chief
executive, he will not approve the
league without II. That means that
with Mr.. Cox we shall get no league.
for even II the Democrats elected
every senatorial candidate which they
have in the field, they would not have
enough to carry the league without
reservations.
Harding, on the other hand, has al
ready voted twice for the league with
reservations. and promises that as
president. he will endorse the coven-
ant with Article y, or u similar in
tcrnational agreement limiting arma-
ments providing court OF arbitration
and conference for discussion Of
non-judicial character. That is exactly
what we want and that IL what Hard
ing, as president. will give US"
