HOW TO FRESHEN FUR PIECES
PeItry Should Be Placed on Table and Rubbed With Moistened Saw
 dust or cornmeaI.

Fur garments do not show dirt as much as fabrics. but If they are worn a great deal, dust and dampneSS cause an accumulation of dirt round the roots of the hairs. The oil that re, mains in the skin holds 1t.
 To clean fur garment. place it flat on table and rub it with moiStened SawduSt or cornmeal. then beat it thoroughly with a small stick Do not hang the garment up to beat it, nor strike hard enough to injure the skin. When you have rubbed and beaten it well, so that you have broken up and looSened the cake accumulation. give the garment a good shaking and hang lt in the wind.
 Do not hang turS in the sun. nor in any warm place, for that dries and injures the skin. When you take the garment in, repeat the shaking process and if necessary the rubbing and beat ing as well. This is the method used by professional cleaner

FASHION HINTS FROM PARIS

Monkey fur continues to be very smart. It is still considered most elegant. and we even see this popular fur as fringes falling over the hands. giving the finishing touch to long. tight-fitting velvet sleeve.
 stunning afternoon gown is made of pale gray crepe de chine. the long and narrow sleeves fashioned in black velvet! A double TOW of black monkey fur forms the belt and this same fur edges Che short skirt The glossy monkey fur blends beautifully with the delicate tint of the material.
 The girl who would just adore own. ing fan, but cannot afford the ex- pensive curled ostrich feathers, will welcome a charming creation made of goose quills. They are shown in any of the evening shades and will prove delightful accessory.
 And now we have the dolman-cane. neghgee. To wear in ones boudoir nothing could be lovelier-or warmer than this dolman lounging robe of croSS-quilted pale rose satin messa- line, interlined in flannel and lined in the palest gray crepe de chine. With this are worn quilted satin slippers to match, and if one adds pretty boudoir cap to the ensemble, the pie. ture will be altogether charming.

Mexico First in Oil Production.

The possible oil production of Mex ico is estimated at nearly 2,000,OO0 barrels day. though less than 9 per cent of this amount is exported at the present time, and but fraction of MeXico's oil territory has been prospeCted. In the brief 16 years of its development it has climbed to the place of second producer of the world. and it's wells are without a peer indeed, so far ahead of the others as to hardly admit of comparison.

 To do this get two ounces of calonite powder from any drug store-sprinkie a little on a hot. wet sponge--rub over the blackheads briskly-wash the parts and you will be surprised how the blackheads have disappeared Big blackheads. little no matter where they are. simply dissolve and disappear. leaving the parts without any mark whatever. Black heads are simply a mixture of dust and dirt and secretions from the body that form in the pores of the skin. Pinch.ng and squeezing only cause irritation, make large pores and do not get them out after they become hard The caion.te 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 blemishes should cer- tainly try this simple method.--Adv.

They found that he was not "the wild man" which he had been pie tured by most Engiishmen during his fighting days, and Is still pictured by those who are politically opposed to the government meeting the Sinu Fein dele gates. Instead. he appears to be serious minded man.
 A large crowd gathered this morn Ing at the entrance to Downing street to cheer the Irish representative when they arrived but before the conference was over the police moved the crowd along because of orders that no assemblages should be all lowed within mile of the House ot Parliament on account of the unem- ployed demonstration The Irish sympathizers, therefore, marched in military formation to the Sim Fein headquarters, where they stayed un- til it was announced that the com ference had adjourned.

UNEMPL PLOYMENT IS
 FIRST IN FARLEY
Irish Conference Sits for Hour and Half and Adjourns
 for Premier
By Associated Press

London, October 1s.-The Irish conference sat for an hour and half today, this being the third session since the representatives of the Dali Eireann arrived in London, and ad- journed until Il o'clock Friday morn- ing, Premier Lloyd George and the members of the cabinet requiring the afternoon to consider the question ,f unemployment, which is momentarily uppermost in their minds.
 Michael Collins, head of the Irish republican army, and Sim Fein min- ister of finance. by a seemingly un- considered remark that they were not returning to Downing street. gave rise to a report that a crisis hal been reached, but Arthur Griffith, head of the Irish delegation, quickly corrected this by informing the news paper men that the conference had merely been adjourned. and that they were coming back in the morning.
 Truce Breach Mentioned
 Both sides observed the agreement not to give ont any information re- garding the proceedings. but it is understood that alleged breaches of the truce were again mentioned. At any rate more Is expected to be &C., complished by private conversations between the various. delegates, If which there were numerous today, than by formal meetings in Down ing street. At these conversa sations maay points arise which need to be arranged before the real crux of the discussions is reached. w
 What financial arrangements are to be made between the two coun- tries If the Sim Fein accepts the governments offer is a matter which the Dali Eireann is anxious to have explained. and put on paper, while the existing state of trade, owing to the boycott. is of particular in terest to the government.
 Optimism is the prevailing note in both the Sim Fein and British camps although 1t is admitted that the sub jects over which a controversy is likely to arise have not yet been reached. This optimism is enhanced by the announcement that the prime minister is getting ready to go to Washington, which, 1t is considered. he would not do If he believed the Irish conference was likely to reach a deadlock before he could get back to London.
