The use OF palm and olive oils to
keep the skin fresh and smooth is
nothing new, but a secret known to
pretty girls as far back as Cleopatra.
Her Palmolive came in skins and
jars, and she had to do her own mix
ing. But the ,beautifying cleanser
she achieved was the inspiration of
the mild, soothing blend science pro-
duces today.
Take a lesson from Cleopatra, who
kept her youthful beauty long after
girlhood's days had passed. She used
cosmetics to embellish and enhance
her charm, just as women do today.
But the foundation was a skin thor
oughly and healthfully cleansed from
all clogging and dangerous accumu-
lations.

Our price secret

II Palmolive were made in small
quantities it would be very expen-
sive soap. Palm and Olive oils are
most costly soap ingredients, and
come from overseas.
But the popularity which requires
enormous production has reduced
the price to that of ordinary soaps.
The Palmolive factories work day
and night. the rare oils are imported
in such vast volume that the manu-
featuring cost is reduced.
Thus Palmolive, priced according
to quality, would cost at least Is
cents, is yours for modest 10 cents.
You can afford this greatest of all
luxuries for every toilet purpose.

Such cleansing is the secret of

FALLING LEAVES.

The City Street Department calls the
attention of the citizens to the expense
incurred to the City every year by the
leaves in the Fall being allowed to gather
in the cutters and be washed into the
drainage ducts of the City.
The citizens are urged to see to il that
the leaves are kept clear from the GU tiers
beside the streets where flow of water
may take them into the drains or pipes.
A large saving in money can be made to
the City each year if each citizen will
kindly look out for his own Street boun-
daries in this way. 1t is impossible for
the City employees to attend to all of
this work in time to prevent their plug
ging the drainage. A little care on the
part of each house h1lder or property
owner will save the City large amount
of expense
