he rode down to Chicago on a cattle
train from the farm in Iowa on which
hc had lived. this means of transpor-
tntion being free, and went to work out

When the days labors were over it
was his custom to ride across town on

Ualstead street he had to change from
one line to another. There he got into
the habit of chatting with the big
blonde transfer man and the two came
to be companionable acquaintances.
Soon Mr.. Mondell migrated to Colo

tbe car change. Twenty five years
later however, the two met in the halls

none other than William Lorimcr, OF

Yesterdays Mystery Solution

TN THE case of "Thc Heckshall Muir
L der" Mrs. Gavin had related how
she was awakened by the bowling of
the dogs while it was still dark, before
the clouds were swept away and the
moon came out.
Harvey Hunt knew this was lie
because dogs never howl except when
the moon is shining, or perhaps under
the influence of some musical instru-
ment. There were, of course, no such
noises involved in this case.
Scientists explain this bowling by
moonlight as an instinct inherited from
the days before dogs became domesti-
Gated. 1t is the same thing as the
hunting cry of the wolves, which is
never heard upon n dark night, when
the animals could not see their quarry.
Hunt knew that the murderer must
be either the visitor Dorrell or the
housekeeper, and inasmuch as the lat
ter was lying, he thought It worth while
TO put her to the test.

A balmy lather needed

The study has been to produce balmy,
creamy lather. A lather that soothcs while
it tcleanses. A lather which leaves the skin
soft.
To do that, modern science has gone
back to methods of 5000 years ago. 1t
employs blend of palm and olive oils.
Not as Cleopatra used them, but prepared
in modern ways.
In Palmolive soap these masehless oils
are perfectly combined As a facial cleans
er, the world has never found ANYTHING
better. And it probably never will.
Palmolivc cleans the skin with a gentle
and soothing emollient. 1t leaves the skin
in blooming, fresh condition. Its daily use
is the foundation of skin beauty. Its every
application penetrates the skin with the
most beneficial oils of the ages.

If the skin very dry, apply cold cream
before and after washing. The soap will

then apply a dash of cold water as a tonic

Good complexions call
for soap

Beautifying cleanliness requires not only
a clean surface, but also soap cleanscd
pores. Such cleanliness calls for soap.
Dirt, oil and perspiration clog the skin.
So does powder-so does rouge. At least
once daily this accumulation should be re-
moved. The best time is at night Then
for hours OF sleep the skin has chance to
breatc-.
Without SUCH cleansing, glands and
pores become enlarged and diritated. Their
functions are retarded. Skins become
coarse. Blackheads and blotches may
follow.

Egyptian beauties used palm and olive
oils. Roman beauties used them in their
famous baths. As skin cosmetics, palm and
olive oils have for ages stood supreme. But
in olden times only the favored few could
get them. And none could get them in this
ideal form.

This cleansing must be done with soap.
