SUBLIME PORTE PROTESTS

Constantinople, Nov. 14.-The Sub- lime Porte has issued a protest against the estab1 b1fshment of Greek civil administration in Smyrna and against the disapp earance of the last vestige of Turkish auth ority.
 Thousands of Turkish government employees, the protest says, have been discharged and the Greeks have SUD- pressed the Turkish educational in- stitutions and introduced Greek as the official language in Anato1ia. This action, the docume1t asserts, is a fragrant violation of the international regulations as the status of Smyrna has not yet been defined Or the Sevres treaty ratified.

STRENGTHENING
 CHEEK MUSCLES If the muscles of tine face are strong there will be less danger of sagging cheeks and wrinkles and hol1ows. Therefore every wom an who fears the approach of wrinkles should strength en the muscles of the cheeks as much IS possible.
 which is well recommended for this. If the skin is dry coat it with a little cold cream before you begin this rub ping. If it is a, very oily use talcum powder. This is simply to make the rubbing easier. Hold the hands over the face with the palms of the hand. that Is the cushiony part of the hand against the skin. Then rub and knead the muscles vigorously-yet not too vigorously. What you want it to stimulate the circulation of the blood not want to pull or stretch them. This kneading, rubbing motion should be kept up for several minutes; the hardest part of each stroke being upwards so as to lift the lax and sag ging muscles.
 When you have finished wash the face with warm water, then rinse with water cold as you can get it, ice cold if possible. If you have a very loose and fabby skin ths may seem to ag- gravate the wrinkles for a few weeks, but after that the whole face will be toned up and decidedly improved in
 
 Kitty M.-If your legs are so stout they shake when you walk. you must reduce your weight. If this is really the cause of the feeling of weakness In them, you must be very much over weight. Perhaps, however, the un- steady feeling is the result of Ill health-have you been i'll lately? If so, exercise, build yourself up and you will feel all right again.
 Bee Bee.-Reduce the ankles by massaging and kneading them vigor- ously with the hands to work off the superf1uous flesh. If you are too stout, your ankles will be thick. Any strenuous outdoor or gymnasium exer- else will tend to make the ankles slim and neat looking.

NO DOCKING FACILITIES

Petrograd, Nov. 14.-Only 20 ships can find docking facilities for unload ing now in this port at one time Previously it was possible for 99 ships to unload simultaneously, but the sitting up of the river and the decay of docks make it necessary for many ships to wait their turn since the resumption of shipping activity.

EMPIRE.

Something distinctly different in motion pictures came to the Empire theatre last night when "A Connecti- cut Yankee in King Arrhur's Court" opened a weeks engagement.
 The vizualization of Mark Twa1n'S satirical novel. as produced by the Fox corporation, leaves nothing to be desired. None of Twain's delightful satire has been lost in the film ver- sion:-rather, the enjoyment of the vhice1e is enhanced by splashes of comedy a bit more modern.
 The result is very pleasing enter tainment. The affairs of the twen- tfeth century youth who is dropped back into the middle. of the sixth cen- tugty offer unlimited possibilities.
 Throughout the story there runs a. love theme that supplies the heart interest demanded by the picture fan. Th love story doesn't interfere with the Twain satire in the least.
 The Fox company has supplied a very adequate cast and the general production work is excellent.

 The scenic effects will be up to the high standard set in recent produce tions. and this in itself is sufficient guarantee of satisfaction on the pro- duction end.

Gave Everybody a Fresh Start

4 prominent manufacturer of men S
wear. discussing the business of his
concern with a group Of bank officials
yesterday. said they had been able to
keep things moving as the result of a
policy adopted soon after the depression
started last fall to give everybody doing
business with their concern n fresh
start.
I'm the first place. he said. when
things were humming during the war
period we did not attempt to grab every
thing in sight or overload our GUS
toners with goods Instructions were
given TO our men on the road to only
encourage moderate buying. When the
biz change came none of our customers
were ovprstockcd with our goods. Dur
ing the gloomiest days of the depression
we again sent our field men out on the
road against all the big odds. They
only did 20 per cent of their usual
business. We sent them out the sec
ond time and the results were not any
more encouraging. Everybody. how =
ever. who had played fair with us was
given fresh start with seasonal goods
on easy credit basis.
"Whnt was the RESULT he con-
tinupd. 1--WE have our goods we'll rep
resented throughout the country besides
getting whole lot of good advertise =
mcnt. In the meantime. we have been
able to keep the plant moving at about
GO per cent of capacity and Keeping the

GOSSIP OF
THE STREET

Every now and then those who make
practice of attending the weekly
auction sales of securities at the Boursc
pick up big bargain. These are often
found among bunch OF shares So
in lots.
Some few years ago, twenty shares
Of little jcrkwater road in the west
were bought in by a party who was
making a collection of odd stock GER
tihcates at nominal sum which would
hardly pay for the printing of the
certificates. Several years later, this
same little road was bought in by one
OF the larger western systems and in
order to close out the corporate ex-
istcncc II was necessary to get this
same twenty shares. Nobody ever knew
just what was the actual price paid,
but the owner and his family were
able to make nm extended European
trip on the profits
Not many weeks ago, a local broker
picked up sixty shares Of former
we'll known local corporation for 81 per
share. Yesterday, he received written
bio offer of 81 share for the stock.
That is moro profit than the shrcwdcst
trader has been able to get out of any
OF the active stocks in n single day in
the rCCwlt market.

Beginning TO Take Notice

There has been a somewhat disap-
pointing response to the reduced price
schedules, said we'll known steel
man yesterday. but from the increased
Inquiries which have been coming in
tn" last few days it is quite certain
consumers are sitting up and beginning
to take notice. There may be further
reductions in some lines in order to
stimulate demand. but already there has
been n disposition shown. especially in
the building trade, TO obtain new esti :
mates on shapes. 1t will be found, in
my opinion. that great dCnl of con
struCtiOn work which has been held in
allowance the last six months pending a
readjuStmcnt Of prices of material and
labor, will be quickly resumed just as
soon as the consumer is satisfied an
even keel has been reached in price
schedules That juncturc is already
here or very near at hand.
"As soon rs this is generally recog-
niZed." he continued, there is going
to be a big rush. and while 1t may seem
foolish statement 10 make at this
time. you will find soon after the turn
comes many who are holding aloof in
hopes of shading the price will be among
the first TO offer a premium for imme =
dintc delivery. This has ever been the
experience in all the between seasons In
the steel industry and history will re-
peat itself.
