DR.. CRAFTS BALKS AT
DRASTIC SUNDAY LAW

WASHINGTON. July 14.-A dele
CATION headed by Noah W. Cooper,
Nashville. Tenn, chairman Of the
Methodist Central Sabbath Crusade
Committee, has asked for a hearing
before the House Commerce Com
mittee on its proposal TO bar Sun
day newspapers from the mails and
prohi bit Government employees
from working on Sunday except in
emergencies.
In connection with the commit
tees appeal, DR.. Wilbur r. Crafts,
superintendent OF the International
Reform Bureau, issued a statement
that officials of the bureau and OF
the Methodist Board OF Temperance,
Prohibition and Bible Morals unite
in announcing that they have had
no part in and are in no way re-
sponsible for" the legislation advo-
Gated by Mr.. Cooper's delegation.
DR.. Crafts in a letter TO Mr.. Coop
er declared:
I'VE believe in a Federal law
which would prevent United States
employees doing unnecessary work
and business on Sunday, but are
strongly convinced that your bill will
prevent rather than help the enact
ment OF such a law"

SCIENCEBANS
POWDER PUFF

furious
FLUFFY BALL
DISEASE CARRIER

Girls-and grandmothers, too
chuck your powder puffs in the ash
can!
Il may be a great help to you. so
far as your looks 20, but science
says it belongs in perdihon, wher-
ever that may be.
The powder pun. this learned
science continues, is a carrier Of
germs; the powder from it is inhaled
and inhames the membrane and
lungs, and powder in the pores isn't
healtful. anyhow-so there you are!
DR.. Frank Dyer Sanger of Balti-
more, the noted rhinologist, is the
authority for the powder puffs' new
and wicked reputation. And. oh,
yes-a rhinologist is a doctor who
knows all about the nose.
Here's what DR.. Sanger thinks OF
the fluffy little powder puff:
American womanhood is suffer-
ing from the results OF too much
powder. Is it because women are
growing annually more vain? I al
ways advise women patients to pinch
their noses il they must indulge in
the use of powder and then suggest
that they try TO escape as rapidly as
possible from the dangerous atmos-
phere-
"It is the possibility OF inhaling
the powder that is the real danger.
The dust Of the powder flies up the
nose. where IL lodges. In most cases
| it remains in the membrane and
serves as an irritant. 1t is also pos
sible that the diseased condition OF
| the membrane which is so preva-
lent at present may be due some
what TO the effect Of the indiscrimin-
ate use OF powder. The degree OF
irritation, of course. depends on the
patients ability to throw the in
hammation off.
statistics prove that Is per cent
Of the women in this country. in
ciuding young and old. are suffering
from various degrees Of irritation OF
the sep.um, or the bony cartilagi-
nous piece that separates the nos
trils. This condition is again con-
sidered by specialists as the result
Of too much powder.
But do you think that girl can
really be attractive without the aid
OF POWDER" he was asked.
Certainly" the doctor remarked
confidently. 'I believe that woman
would be far more attractive II she
would not insist on eliminating the
natural oil Of her skin. II is one OF
the most essential elements for her
health, and is really one Of her chief
natural attractions"
IF the modern girl would only be
content to use pure rice powder all
would be well, but she goes in for
all sorts OF aduterations and chem
icais which are exceedingly injur-
! ious to the skin and general health. y

Spare Ponder Puff SaUe
Nose, Science Warns Girls

1T is not the use OF the powder
that is harmful DR.. Goddard pointed
out. but the hurried way that II is
applied.
TN her own boudoir a woman
easily could dispense entirely with
this evil by putting a bit of cotton
up each nostril before using the
powder puff" said the specialist.
THE powder that flies up the nose
and lodges there acts as a foreign
body. 1t lodges in the mucous mem
brane and acts as an irritant in
various grades. Inflammatory
changes are bound TO take place.
Their degree of irritancy, Of course
depends on the ability OF the patients
to throw the Inflammation off.
"As a result OF the Inflammation
diseased condition of the frontal
maxillary or sphenoidal parts Is
quite likely TO occur"
