BEAUTY HINTS

Oh, no! Mustn't feel at all that
those little red spots which threaten
to be pimples or blackheads or most
anything else. are a tragedy.
They're not!
just catch them in time with a
lotion which you can make your
self.
Take 2 ounces Of spermaceti
ointment. ? teaspoons OF glycerin
and 90 grains OF bicarDonate OF soda.
Mix them well and use at night after
cleansing the face.
This mixture Is entirely harmless,
so a be used for as long a period
as necessary.
And-this is just a hint which
won't seem at all important to you
but try it!-keep your hands away
from your face as much as possible,
Don't rest your forehead on a moist
and sometimes q little bit soilec
palm.
May seem surprising but a lot OF
bad compilations can be traced &c
the habit Of continually resting the
ace on the palms.

CHAPTER 81.
L Chafe at Being Chaperoned

Were it not for Rose Montillon,
I'd miss most of the gossip about
the company. After the strangely
unpleasant affair of the dinner in her
apartment, Mrs. Mandy was always
with me at the studios.
Motherdear takes care of my cor
respondence. My fan mail arrives
by the bushel. 1t takes up hours OF
each day to answer letters from ad-
mirers. And so Mrs. Mandy became

doesn't need a chaperone in a studio
as much as al a dance.
Moreover. Mandy. the publicity
man, insists on the ~chaperone. II
looks well-he says 'swelr'-for the
company TO take such good care OF
the youngest of its members.
Often I've wondered what's going
to happen when Dick Barnes meets
Motherdear. 1t seems to me thai
Dick is taking great care that they

Under the direction of the county
attorney of Waseca county the soft
drink parlor operated by Henry Splett
of GAINESVILLE has been closed temper
arily. The place was raided few
weeks ago and closed upon orders
from the attorney. 1t was understood
that it could be opened under new
management, but the new owner
could not come to the village because
of the ill2ess of his wife, and so
Splett was hired to run 1t until the
owner could take charge. Splett claims
the right to run the place as an en-
ployee. and that the council has no
tight to prevent him from doing so.
He will bring action to enforce what
he considers his right.

COWS WERE ON DRUNK
They Discovered Barrel Of Mash;
jumped, over the Moon

According to the Waseca Herald
while the Meridian section crew were
going over the Northwestern track a
few miles east Of Waseca the other
day they noticed a bunch of cattle in
mad scramble around clump of
bushes near the railroad fence. On
investigating they found barrel tip
ped over on its side and a small
quantity of nicely ripened mash" in
the bottom, the balance having been
eaten by the cows. p,
The barrel had been covered by a
cloth and carefully placed in the
bushes, with some brush thrown over
to further conceal it. Some one, pre-
sumably from Waseca had figured
that he could keep the mash in the
pasture without detection and draw
the contents off when ready for the

Soon after eating the mash the
cows and other cattle began to snort
and run around the pasture like wild
animals and furnished a circus per-
Torrance before they became tired.
AS a result of the inqusitiyeness of
the cows, some moonshiner lost his
toddy and some farmer got milk with
a "kick" in 1t.

Little Miss Muriel Kuebler, the
eleven year old daughter of MIR. and
Mrs. J. w. Kuebler of this city, is
showing marked musical ability for
her age, especially on the violin. So
perfect has this little lady become
in the manipulation Of the violin that
she has been accepted as pupil in
the master summer course of the
Chicago Musical College under the
instruction of the famous teacher
Of violin, Leopold Auer, one of whose
students, Jascha Heifetz, created a
sensation in musical circles.
Miss Kuebler was originally a pu-
pill of Mrs. Minnie Hubbard Of this
city. The little lady's ability to gain
entrance into this famous school,
certainly speaks highly of the train
ing she received at the hands of Mrs.
Hubbard. Professor Leopold Auer
makes it a rule to never take pu-
Dill under his instruction who has not
first attained a perfect knowledge
of the violin. Miss Kuebler is the
youngest pupil he ever admitted in
to one of his classes. Some idea of
