WHITE HANDS.
 The problem of keeping the hands cated one, because in the winter they dry and chap, and in the summer they become brown and suburned Most of us hate wearing gloves always in the summer, and many of us ind that in the winter not even thick gloves are a sufficient protection.
 To make it still worse, 1t is hard to rub oil on the hands during the day because of the dust the oily skin will collect, and it is impossible to use oil at night without staining the bed clothes, unless one is willing to sleep with gloves on. Altogether the in women, without meaning to do it. neglect their hands shamefu1ly.
 Obviously the best thing is to find some lotion that is not greasy. Per mond Lotion best for this because it hleaches the skin and keeps it white, and is not sticky nor greasy. It possibly so. Here is my formula:

 What kind of a girl will be the pro duct of a divorce which permits her to spend six months a year with her straight-laced, Puritanical mother, and the other six months with a father whose turptitude is known to all the chorus girls of New York. That interesting question is answered in Paying the Piper" the Para mount production now playing at drama of New York society has every element of interest necessary to move the most sophisticated. The clothes worn by the heroine are a revelation in style. Paying the Piper" is strictly a society drama. So far as the average person is concerned 1t does not hold the mirror up to na- ture," but it does show convlnc1ngIy and interestingly the problems that perplex the upper crust. That "one touch of nature which makes the whole world kin" comes in the lat ter part of the show when the hero inc finds herself in reduced circum- stances.

Your system is continually TAX

waste products. This process goes
on all during life. But, sometimes
the organs do not properly func-

stead of passing out through the
pores of the skin, through the kid

canal, are absorbed in the blood.
Then the blood becomes poisoned,
and cannot properly nourish the

Not for women only

on that account. Few things add so much
to beauty.
But men also want white teeth. Men who
smoke find that teeth discolor quickly, due
to stains in the film.
Pepsodent means more than this, however.
1t means cleaner, safer teeth. Children need
it even more than others. Their teeth are

Why prettier teeth? .
How film ruins teeth

Film dins the teeth's luster. 1t also forms
the basis of tartar. 1t holds food substance
which ferments and forms acid. It holds the
acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay.

Dental science after long research, has
found WAYS to fight that film. Able authori-

use.
