YOU'LL GET RID OF
 BLACKHEADS SURE

There is one simple safe and sure way that never fails to get rid of blackheads and that Is to dissolve them.
 To do this get two ounces of calonits powder from any drug store-sprinkle lit- tie on hot, wet sponge--rub over the blackheads briskly-wash the parts and you will be surprised how the blackheads have disappeared. Big blackheads. little black heads. no matter where they are. simply dissolve and disappear. leaving the parts without any mark whatever. Rlackheads are simply mixture of dust and dirt and secretions from the body that form in the pores of the skin. Pinching and squeezing only cause irritation. make large pores, and do not get the blackheads out after they become hard. The calonite powder and the water simply dissolve the blackheads so they wash right out, leaving the pores free and clean and in their natural condition. Anyone troubled with these unsightly blem- ishes should certainly try this simple method.--Adv.

The Shoes 10 Buy
 for Fall

When you select your footwear , this season, will you buy the or dinary shoe and risk comfort and health; or will you change to sens ible, efficient shoes that are good looking?
 There's happiness in good pair of shoes and as much damnation in a bad pair of shoes as in anything else of the same size except vial of poison. The good shoe comforts your feet, eases your mind, invig- orates your body, beautifies your disposition. The bad shoe can give you a nervous headache, backache, knee ache, besides many foot ache; and the ultimate consequences may be serious enough to require long medical treatment.
