SIMPLE WAY TO GET
RID OF BLACkHEADS

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 calonite
powder from any drug store-sprirkle n
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
blackheads, no matter where they ere.
simply dissolve and disappear leaving the
parts without any mark whatever. Hack
heads are simply mixture OF dust and
dirt and secretions from the body that
form in the pores of the skin. PinchiEg
and squeezing only cause irritation, make
large pores and do not get them out after
they become hard The calonite powder
and the water simply dissolve the black
heads so they wash right out. leaving the
pores free and clean and in their natural
condition. Anyone troubled with these I'M
slightly bIemishes should certainly try this
simple method.-Adv.

BROKEN-NECKED MAN
 STILL LIVING HAPPILY.

 John Allen of this city is the "broken-necked" historian. He sustained his injury while fight ing with the A. E. F. on the French front. His neck is now supported by a metal frame work, and Allen Is able to get around almost as well as any other man in the city.
 Allen gained considerable publicity during the war when he was commended for having carried Lieutenant Colonel Theodore Roosevelt in from the battlefield when the latter was gassed.

UNIQUE MARMOSET TRAIN ING HABITS TOLD BY AVDALAS.

One of the most peculiar and rare~ animals in existence is the marmoset. Professor Avdalas the noted Graeco-Hindoo palm ist and philosopher, at present in Williams, during his eXten- Sive travels has acquired one of these rare and strange creat- ures while on a sojourn in Ar gentina, South America.
 While returning from India. Prof. Avdalas stopped in Peru and took the overland trail to the east coast of South America Afer covering a distance of 800 miles, the professors party was surprised by finding a small creature lying upon the ground It somewhat resembled a mon key in features and had a body somewhat like an American squirrel. The animal had evidently fallen out of hole in a hollow tree.
 Prof. Avdalas, through curi- osity, picked up the animal and examined it. He found it to be what the South Americans call a marmoset, an animal which is very rare even in South America, which is it's home.
 Knowing that it would be inn possible to take the animal out of South America without the permission of the government, the professor brought his mar mOSet to the United States in his pocket.
 While the professor was in Pittsburgh, Pa., George" which is the name he has given his pet, fell to the ground from the window of a two story building. Fortunately, the marmoset suffered no serious injury. However, George" nearly met his death from the same cause again while Prof. Avdalas was in Milwaukee, Wis. Here his pet fell from the window of a five story building, and the professor says that he was sure that George" would die because of injuries received from his fall. However. the marmoset recov- cred, and the professor has his treasured pet in the Grand Can yon Hotel with him, and has placed George" on display at that place.
 The marmoset is so rare that 1t is prized very highly by the elite Parisiennes. and as the animal will bring a fortune when placed on sale, it can be readily seen that only a few possess this treasured animal for a pet.

 IN GOVERNMENT FILMS.
When Nathaniel Hawthorne

When Nathaniel Hawthorne
 wrote his story about "The
 Great Stone Face" he little thought that the famous "Old

MRS. L. B. MOORE
 DIES SUDDENLY

Her many admiring friends were inexpressibly shocked when they learned of the sud den death, at nine o'clocl-, last Friday evening, of Mrs Gold can Elna Moore, wife cf the Rev. Luther B. Moore, u Epis- copal pastor of this city
 Mrs. Moore had been more or less an invalid since 1912, when her health failed while she was teaching school at F't- ! Smith, Ark. She resigned her school then and came west to New Mexico, later to Winslow-
 Mr. Moore had met her in Arkansas in 1910, while she was teaching. She was mar ried to MT. Moore, in San An tonic, Texas, on July 21, 1915
 Mrs. Moore's health forced her to go from Winslow to the. Albuquerque sanitarium in 917 She spent months there, then went to St. Luke's Home, in Phoenix, and later to the Will son sanitarium, at Prescott, having spent about a year in all three sanitariums. She first came here in June, 1918, her husband having then assumed the pastorate here.
 Her condition necessitated her going back to the Albuquer que sanitarium on January G. last, where she remained up to the time of her death. She had planned coming home the first of June.
 MT. Moore intended visiting his wife in Albuquerque on Monday of this week. Both he and she felt that her health was improving and were most encouraged. On Friday night, shortly after the choir practice at the Church of the Epiphany was over, MT. Moore, alone in the study of the church, was advised by telephone from Al buquerque of her death He left on his journey to A1buquer- que on the first train the next morning.
 The funeral was held from St. Johns Episcopal church, Albuquerque on Monday after noon, burial being in Fairview cemetery, that city. Douglas s. Roome, of this city, was del egated by the vestry of the church to attend the funeral They returned to Flagstaff Tuesday morning.
 The floral offerings were many and beautiful. Patients friends, friends in this city, the St. Margaret's Guild, the Sun- day School, the vestry choir. Knights of Pythias, Pythian Sisters, Masons, Eastern Stars and Elks all sent flowers.
 Tuberculosis was the cause of her death. One lung was very badly affected, but it was felt that she would ultimately arrest the disease. Up to a few months before her death, she was feeling as we'll as usual an artery in one of the lungs gave way, resulting in fatal hemorrhage. Alone in her room, she rang the bell for a nurse, but when the latter who came as quickly as Possi- Ole. reached her, she was dead

Story" replied Dixon. "Do you want
me to go out of the state again.?
Taunts Over Stray Printing
Talk of the newspapers attitude to-
ward the governor was again injected
into the argument which caused
Colonel Nolan to remark that he held
a bill for presentation to the board OF
examiners for the printing OF q num-
ber of law pamphlets outside OF the
state. He claimed this work had been
sent out of the state because the con-
tract for such work was held by
newspaper which was not friendly to
Dixon.
The governor countered by saying
this work had been ordered by Code
Commissioner Choate, q co-counsel OF
Nolan in the Conley matter. and that
he, the governor. had not known OF
it until few weeks ago.
Nolan then recited the removal OF
Conley by the governor after the ad-
iournment of the legislature, holding
it to be in violation Of the law which
required confirmation by the senate OF
the appointment of the prison warden
and charged that in this the governor
was derelict in his duty.
Board Resolution a Mystery
Dixon replied that he had allowed
Conley to remain 30 days longer than
his term and asked if Conley was a
superman, that he should be above re-
moval.
The governor then called attention
to the resolution adopted by the prison
board during his absence and which
he said tied his hands in the matter.
He intimated that possibly Colonel
Nolan had a hand in writing the reso-
luton, to which Nolan entered de-
NAL and claimed the governor had
said he knew who wrote it.

the writing of this resolution" said

The demand for wool this week has
been Of fair proportion, due in part to
speculation on the part of dealers but
also in considerable measure to piecing
out orders from the mills, which meet
the advanced prices reluctantly. Fine
and medium woods are very firm and
tending upwards, while low woods are
somewhat higher. Secured low South
American woods have shown an advance
of perhaps five cents a pound for the

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS

Chicago, Dec. 23.-Grain prices ad-
vanced today, helped more or less by the
signing OF the bill which provides $780,
100000 for Russian famine relief. The
wheat market close was unsettled 4 to
cents net higher. with May $1.16A to
$116h, and July $1.04is to $1.047s. Corn
gained u to " and oats a shade to v
pa cents. In provisions the outcome
was unchanged to a shade lower.
Definite assurance that buying of
food supplies for Russia would begin at
once tended to make the wheat market
strong from the start, and at no time
were prices lower than yesterdays fin
ish Besides, the weather map showed
no moisture, most needed in the winter
crop belt, although later private mes
sage told of snow in parts Of Kansas,
where much benefit was expected to re-
suit. Gossip was current also that the
domestic visible supply total Of Monday
might be expected to decrease. and that
milling demand was becoming better. On
the other. hand, export sales proved
small, and failed to bear out assertions
earlier in the day that foreigners We're
after wheat. Toward the last, accord
ingly, something Of a reaction took
place.
Strength In prices for corn and oats
came chiefly from the signing Of the
Russian relief bill.
Selling by packers counterbalanced in
