A Free Oatmeal Prescription Does II:
Work Overnight. You Can
Prepare IL at Home

New York-Exposure to sun, dust
and wind has very bad effect upon
the skin and complexion. There is q
way to overcome this. 1T is my own
discovery and takes just one night to
get such marvellous results" says Mae
Edna Wilder, when her friends ask
her about her wonderful complexion
and the improved appearance of her
hand and arms. 'You can do the same
thing if you follow my advice" she
says. 81 feel it my duty to tell every
girl and woman what this wonderful
prescription did for me. l never tire
of telling others Just what brought
about such remarkable results. Here
is the identical prescription that re-
moved every defect from my face,
neck hands and arms. Until you try
it you can form no idea of the mar
velous change it will make in just
one application. The prescription
which you can prepare at your own
home is as follows:
go to any grocery store and get
ten cents worth of ordinary oatmeal,
and from any drug store bottle Of
Derwillo. Prepare the oatmeal as di-
rected in every package of Derwillo
and apply night and morning. The
first application will astonish you. 1t
makes the skin appear transparent,
smooth and velvety. especially rec
ommend this method for a sallow
skin, shiny nose, freckles. tan, sun
spots, coarse pore, rough skin, ruddi-
mes, wrinkles, and in fact every blem-
ish the face, hands and arms are heir
to. If your neck or chest is discolored
from exposure, apply this combina-
ton there and the Objectionable de-
feet will disappear. 1t is absolutely
harmless and will not produce or
stimulate growth of hair. No mat
ter how rough and ungainly the hands
and arms or what abuses they have
had through hard work and expos
ure to sun and wind, this oatmeel
Derwillo combination will work a
wonderful transformation in 12 hours
at the most. Thousands who have

could not crack a beeehnut with his
fathers hammer more quickly than
Jasper Jay could reach the inside Of a
sweet beechnut.
Though Jasper hated to spend any Of
his time during the nutting season by
doing much else except eat, he was so
fond of nuts that he always hid away
as many as he could in cracks and
crevices, and buried them under the
fallen leaves.
You see, he was like Frisky Squirrel
in that. He believed in storing nuts for
the winter. But since he had no hollow
tree in which to put them. it was only
natural that he never succeeded IN
finding every one of his carefully hid
den nuts. He left them in so many diff

LOW L|GN|TE RATE
ALLOWED TO STAND
SOUTH DAKOTA RESISTED EFF
FORT TO HAVE CHANGE
MADE.

Pierre, July 23.-Attorney Sweet,
of the state railway commission, has
just returned from Omaha. where he
appears as interyenor on complaint
of the Roundup Coal company of
Montana, on the Ignite rates from
North Dakota mines to South Dakota
points.
The complaint alleged discrimina-
tion in favor of the North Dakota
mines, but before the hearing had
proceeded far the Roundup people
withdrew their part of the complaint
which alleged discrimination on lig-
mite rates, but continued an applica-
ton for better rates on Roundup coal
to South Dakota points.
The South Dakota commission Sc
cured a low Ignite rate after consid-
erable effort, and did not feel like
letting this privilege go without a
protest and stepped into the Montana
case and won out, allowing the pres
ent low Ignite rate to sand.

Lights Match
To Inspect Gas

Lennon, July 23.-L. c. Albright,
a Perkins county farmer, was curious
to know how much gasoline he had
drained from his car, SO he lighted
a match.
Now he wishes he had not done so,
for the match ignited not only the
gasoline which he had drained from
the car, but also that remaining in
the auto tank, and as a result the
auto and the building in which it
was at the time, were destroyed.
The car was new one and cost
several thousand dollars. His loss is
estimated at $4,000.
When he drained the gasoline from
the car he was aware of the danger OF
lighting match, and held the match
some distance away, but the fumes
Immediately ignited and it was but
moment until the auto and building
were mass of flames.

FARMERS SHOULD
POISON HOPPERS
STATE EXPERT GIVES ADVICE IN
IN ALARMING NUMBERS.

Brookings. July 23.-In poisoning
grasshoppers, the larger the area
treated the more lasting will be the
results, suggests A. L. Ford, eXten
sion entomologist at State college.
Where a single individual in an
infested area poisons, he is constant
" at the mercy of his neighbor's
hoppers which will advance on his
field after he has poisoned and ne
cessitate repoisoning from time to
time On the other hand if all the
farmers in this infested area poison,
this will not happen. This is but
one argument for organized grass
hopper poisoning.
Materials for making poison bran
mash are rather expensive this year
Where these are purchased in small
amounts the cost is always much
higher than where purchased in larg-
er quantities. Because of this an
infested community can treat its
fields for grasshoppers much more
cheaply if the farmers will go in to-
gether and make one large order.
While arsenic can be purchased
for mfrom 10 to Is cents per pound
cheaper in 100 pound lots than in
lots of few pounds each, the same
is true with black strap molasses.
When it is seen that grasshoppers
are present in sericns numbers on
farm, the farmer concerned should
get in touch with his neighbors. If
they also have a serious infestation
the county agent should be called and
informed of the seriousness and eX-
tent of the infestation and asked for
some sort of an organization meet
ing in the community.
