ROADSIDE ADVERTISING SIGN
LAW.

In conformity with an agreement
between the State Board of Forestry
and the State Roads Commission,
the law, prohibiting the placing OF
advertising signs within the right
of-way of any public highway of the
State, has been ended. On June the
LIST, the State Roads Commission as
sumed responsibility for the enforce
ment of the law on state highways,
while the State Board of Forestry
will continue to enforce the law on
other than state roads.
The original law, prohibiting ad-
vertising signs within the right-ot-
way of the public highway, was en-
acted in 1914, and shortly there
after, the State Board of Forestry
appointed June the goth as Sign,
board Day. On that day, through
the cooperation of civic organiza-
tions, Boy Scouts, Improvement as
sociations. and the like, many
thousands of advertising signs were
torn down. The movement thus
inaugurated for the purpose or
beautifying our highways by the
elimination of unsightly advertising
upon trees, fences, and other struc-
lures within the right-of-way of the
highways has been universally com
mended. Signboards outside of the
right-of-way, which were erected
with the written consent of the own
er, are exempt.
The State Board of Forestry is
highly appreciative of the splendid
cooperation given by the people of
the State, interested in making our
roadsides more attractive.
The responsibility for keeping
advertising from the state roads now
rests with the State Roads Commits
sion, and not with the State Board
of Forestry. 1t is hoped that the.
good work accomplished in the last
eight years will be continued, with
even greater effectiveness under the
changed administration.

Recommends Chamberlain's Tablets.
"Chamberlain's Tablets have been
used by my husband and myself off
and on for the past five years. When
my husband goes away from home
he always takes a bottle of them
along with him. Whenever I have
that heavy feeling after eating, or
feel dull and played out, take one
or two of Chamberlain's Tablets and
they fix me up fine," writes Mrs.
Newton Vreeland, Minoa, N. Y.
Take these tablets when troubled
with constipation or indigestion and
they will do you good.

Red Haired Kings

There was only one thing in
ancient times that barred a man
from being a king in Egypt. He
might be everything that was bad
in the world. That didn't bother
the people. But if he had red
hair--they would have none Of
him.
Speaking Of Kings, there was
an African Tribe which every
year weighed their King. If he
was heavier than the preceding
year, they held a feast--and the
King sat at the head of the table.
But if there was a falling off in
weight-well, they held the feast,
but the King was on the table.
They ate him. They reasoned
that he got thin because his con-
science troubled him for the evil
he had done his subjects.

SENSE AND NONSENSE
BY Men"

FIRST and foremost cleanliness
is the important aid TO beauty. A
dirty skin with cloggcd pores is
ugly. TO cleanse the skin of the
face and neck don't forget the
neck) First use soft water, pre-.
fcrably rain water, that is trifle
warmer than the flesh. DO not
rub the face strcnuously with a
cloth as this stretches the skin
and causes sagglng muscles and
wrinkles. Pat the face with the
warm water. Dry with soft
towel and then with the tips of
the fingers apply a good cleansing
cream. Using rotary light mo.
ton, always upwards, lifting the
sagging muscles, massage the
cream well into the skin. Let it
remain few minutes and then
carefully remove with balls of
absorbent cotton. These two OBJ.
erations may be repeated if the
face needs a good cleansing. II
the skin is dry next use n good
cold cream by rubbing lightly in
to the pores. Remove this with
a soft cloth or cotton being care
full not to stretch the muscles of
the face. Apply towels wrung
ont OF quite warm water and fol
low with very cold water or a
piece of ice wrapped in a piece
of linen. This operation will
bring n bright flow of blood into
the face and give a healthy glow
ing skin.
If the skin is dark and sallow
apply lemon juice every night
before retiring.
Hot or warm water opens the
pores: cold water closes the
pores and protects the skin be-
sides Tightening the muscles;
massage is a dangerous medium
if not used carefully and correct
ly. 1t is better to eliminate it
from the formula than do it
harmfully.
If you use powder, and very
few girls do not, use good van
fishing cream before applying it.
Never use cheap powder. You
might better have a shiny nose
than ruin the skin completely
with cheap cosmetics. If you do
not know the right kind of cream
or powder to use write to the
beauty doctor of good maya
zine or paper and explain your
needs.
Poor soap and hard water will
raise havoc with the healthicst
skin. Beware of two things
If your face is troubled with
pimples and liver spots look for
your trouble internally. Probab-
ly your stomach or liver needs at
tention. A complete fast except
for water for about "a hours, TAX
ing physic at the same time and
then following with milk diet will
do wonders for the complexion.
Many famous doctors are now ad-
vocating a milk diet for advanced
stomach and liver complaints.
Drink or eat nothing but milk
and water for at least three days.
The acids that are so harmful
will by that time be eliminated
from your system. This treat
ment Of course means sacrifice
but nothing worth while was
ever won without sacrifice
