Most Folk Send
Money for Seals
Received by Mail

Two kinds Of conscience" letters were
received today by the Marion County
tuberculosis Association in response to
its Christmas Seal letters, according to
Miss Mary 4. Meyers. executive secre-
tary. The first was from a man who for
two years had taken advantage of the
Christmas seal honor system by keep
ing the seals and using them, without
mailing back a check in payment He
sent in a letter pleading guilty to hav-
ing done so, and enclosed his check In
payment for seals used last year and in
1919 as well as for this years allotment.
Our losses from seals so appropriated
have been very small" said Miss Meyers.
although we annually send out thou
sands Of letters containing the seals.
Practically everybody observes the honor
system. some people even going so far
as to keep the seals through the Christ
mas holidays, using them as they need
them, and then sending back what they
have left with 4 check to cover the num-
Der used.
The more touching letter was of
another sort. One man wrote in: I am
sorry to have to return your seals. 1t
is the first year have had to do it, and
] hope you will not take me off your
mailing list. Next year 1 think I can
do my share That is the kind of faith
full support the anti-tuberculosis work
has in Marion County. and it is one rea-
son why our Clmpaign has been max
ing steady progress"
The present Christmas seal sale, Miss
Meyers said, IS progressing nicely, al
though more seals must be sold to guar
antee the 1922 program against the
disease.

Although optimism justly reigns in

which most strongly urged its calling are
gathering their forces and courage to
keep the ball rolling. Among them is
the general committee on the limitation

Girls! Gather Around

And let me tell you how to beautify
your skin and complexion. says Mae Edna
Wilder, the famous beauty specialist. In
the first place, don't wash your face with
soap and water; use a good cleansing
cream instead. 1t takes the dirt out more
thoroughly and leaves the skin soft,
smooth and velvety, and never chaps the
skin.
Just make this test. Wash your face
thoroughly with a good soap and water,
then dry and apply Liska cold cream.
Massage it well into the skin for a few
minutes, then wipe off with a soft, clean
cloth and note how much dirt appears on
the cloth. You will then realize that
there is nothing better to cleanse and
soften the skin than Liska cold cream.
I have used this cream in my work for
years and, although l have tested many
creams, have never seen its equal.
Give it trial and you will become as
enthusiastic over 1t as I am. 1t keeps
the skin youthful looking, and is wonder
full after an auto ride or exposure to
sun and wind. Let hubby or brother
try 1t after shaving. 1t will prove de-
light.
If your skin chaps easily apply a lit
tie of this wonderful cream before going
out. After your bath use Liska cold
cream on your face, lips, hands and arms
IT prevents roughness and gives you
skin as soft as velvet and as beautiful as
a rose.
You can secure Liska cold cream at
toilet counters Of department stores and
druggists everywhere under a positive
guarantee that if, after the very first ap-
plication you are not satisfied, you get
your money back. I know of no other
cream sold under such liberal terms. In
this way you really get a trial without
costing you q single penny-if it fails
to please 1t is put up In large tubes,
the only sanitary way.
Note: 1t is sold under the above guar
antaa In this CitV at the toilet counters
of all department stores and druggists,
including the Hooks Dependable Drug
Stores and the Haag DRUG Co.-Adver-
