COATS ARE LONG OR

sans lining or with a new silk
lining which is very suitable for
the purpose.
But not all the new coats arc
long. Any number of three-quarter
models are no more than suit
length. These very short coats
are in box effects with flaring
sleeves and usually have pretty
colored Innings which serve also
to face revers and collars. Long
or short. all coats are of comfor-
table width and retain a straight
line appearance.

Tightens Her Skin
Loses Her Wrinkles

81 want to tell you how easily I got rid
Of my wrinkles" writes Luella Msrsh.
while in London a friend. much eDyied
because Of her youthful looks, gave me q
formula for a home emade preparation which
has the effect of instantly tightening the
skin, thus smoothing out wrinkles and fur
rows.
The principal ingredient is powered sax
olite. which can be had at drug stores here.
An ounce of saxolite is dissolved in a half
pint witch hazel. After bathing my face
in this but once the transformation was -

such results. Several to whom I recon-

EARLY SPRINGTIME

Costume hats, fashioned of the
material of which suit or gown is
made, are expected to continue in
vogue during the summer, though

plain ostrich. They present a semi
tailored appearance, which makes
them suitable for both dress and
tailored wear.

New Republic Requires Prod
ucts Which Province
Can Supply.

BEUTHEN. Upper Silesia, June %.
Upper Silesia's big industries. far
from suffering II the plebiscite adds
this region TO Poland. will gain
enormously as Poland, stripped by
the war OF everything il needs for
industrial development. will be an
eager purchaser OF Upper Silesia S
coal. iron, zinc and other raw ma
terials and finished products
That is one OF the principal argu-
ments the Poles are making 10 the
Upper Silesian electorate. Their
chief spokesman is Josef hymer,
secretary Of the Federated Polish
unions, which in Upper Silesia claim
a membership Of 10000, including
workers OF all political parties with
the exception OF Polish sOcial-demo-
Gratis. He attended the international
labor conference at Washington last
fall and he takes a keen interest
in American labor and industrial
conditions.
Always Had Difficulty.
Owing TO our isolation In this far
of corner of Germany" he said.
Upper Silesia's industries always
have had difficulty in meeting the
competition of the Westphalian and
Ruhr districts. Poland is on the
eve of a huge Industrial develop
ment and IL will be able To consume
every product Upper Silesia sup
plies. It's nonsense for the Germans
to say that the mines and factories
would be ruined under Polish con-
troll. for the simple reason that the
Germans will continue TO operate
them.
ITO be sure. Poland up 10 now
hasn't the social and Ia Dor laws Ger
many has. But II will have them
and they will be an improvement on
Germany's, which are faulty and
difficult TO reform because their
machinery is so ponderOus and COM
plicated. Poland is now planning
a workmen's compensation act and
other labor legislation which will be
entirely satisfactory and easy 10

Kymer expressed confidence in a
big Polish majority at the election.
The thickly populated Industrial dis
trict OF which Beuthen is the center
will vote overwhelmingly Polish, he
thought. but he admitted that the
district on the left bank or the oder,
extending from Oppeln southwark to
Ratibor. and the northern part of
the plebiscite zone were uncertain.

ITO ask a person to gather his
own mushrooms for the table. with

kinds, is equivalent 10. If not worse
than. inviting him 10 put his unpro-
tected hand into "A den Of rattle
