BEAUTY AND HEALTH

IL.

The time is rapidly approaching when all damsels who value a fair skin will gaze at their reflections in the mirror and wonder how the new fall gown or hat can cope with a sun stained complexion. Hose who cannot afford professional treat ments can make up and apply their own remedies. For the purpose of freshening a discolored skin nothing is more effective than cosmetics con- taining the juice of cucumber. mention this now for the reason that cucumbers are at their best and cheapest. They should be used when at the height of their ripeninE period. because the property contained in them and which gives to the juice its cosmetic value is arsenic. The per centage of arsenic Is naturally greater in large, fully ripe, juicy cu- cumbers, grown to maturity in the open, than In those of forced growth under artificial conditions.
 In the days of ''the good old south" ladies of the old regime relied upon the following preparations, not only for restoring, but for retaining, the pink glow of youth and health so at tractive in women of all ages: Celebrated Cucumber Milk. Cucumber juice, 8 ounces; sweet halmond oil. ? ounces; spirit of soap, N. F., ounces tincture benzoin, dram oil of lavender flowers. 15 drops; oil of bergamot. 10 drops: oil of bitter almonds. 1 drop.
 Mix the sweet almond and other oils shake with the spirit of soap, add the tincture of benzoin crop by drop, and then gradually mix in the juice, with constant agitation.
 Note-Cucumber juice will not keep unless made in the following way:
 Take cucumbers in the green state, wash them thoroughly, then slice them with the skin on into small fragments, place in an earthen dish, pour enough hot water on them to cover, and let simmer for half hour or more, being careful that the heat is not so high or the water so low as to scorch. Then strain through colander or muslin, and add to every pint of juice four ounces of alcohol. Let stand overnight and filter through filter paper. Cucumber milk been thoroughly cleansed and al- lowed to dry on. This Is best done at bedtime. Another treatment is to cream the face literally.

Anxious-A mixture for summer diorrhea which you can procure without difficulty and always have on hand contains: Camphor. one ounces, Dose: From two to five drops on sugar every 20 minues un- til relieved.
 B. M.-Ths powder your friend omitted from the formula may have been henna. A very simple stain for brown hair consists of; PSrogallic acid, one ounce; alcohol, two ounces; water, six ounces. Apply daily with brush until the desired shade is obtained. The best thing for gray ing hair, especially when prema- turely so, Is sage. tar and iron re- storer. This formula is too compli- cated for you to make up success fully at home.
 Distressed-Yo do quite right to wish to eradicate lines before they become fixed. Smooth them out gently with the fingertips, applying warm cocoa oil then cover them with narrow strips of court plaster in direction opposite to that in which the lines run. For the lines treatment. If you applied bleach to tighten your hair you must be pa tient and wait until it grows out its natural shade. Rub oil into 1t ev- cry night, as this will darken 1t as well as promte it's growth.
 Ray T.-No course of internal treatment would reduce your bust. alone. The reduction would be genl eral Your only hope lies in local measures. Some find rubber jackets active reducing agents. They bring about results by inducing perspira- tion. Snugly bound bandages are also used; they reduce by pressure, which, by the way, must not be too great otherwise the glands may be injured. Never use camphor on the breasts. because 1t destroys them.
 Hope Little-Yes, Hope, for your age you should weigh no more than 95 pounds; therefore, you are more than 20 pounds overw eight. l would not advise a girl of your age to diet strenuously, as you require the I~-r of nourishing food.

MAN WITH IRON MASK

The identity of the Man With the Iron Mask, celebrated French state prisoner who was incarerated in the Bastille during the reign of Louis XIV, is one of the worlds unsolved mysteries. Many attempts have been made to solve the riddle, but with lit- tie success He was supposed by some to be natural son of a brother of Lt uis. Others conjecture that he was Count Mattioli. Minister of the Duke of Mantua. More recent research seems to show he was General de Bulonde, who disobeyed orders at the seize of Cuneo. The Man With the Iron Mask" was kept in the Bastile frim 1898 till his death, Nvember 19. 1703, and was buried under the name f Marchiali. The famus mask was not of iron, but e 'seIvet reinforced with whalebone and fastened with paddock at the back of the head. It was so constructed that the mans features were completely disguised.

Passing Days

So lowly has Dobbin fallenl Not
only have the automobiles run him off
many city streets but rural highways
today are marked By the rarity OF the
buggy and prancing team OF bays or
dapple greys we all formerly knew so
we'll Tractors and farm machinery
propelled by gasoline or electricity
have added to Dobbin's competition
until his sphere OF usefulness is indeed
narrow one.
But the shock OF shocks comes
when we learn that horse flesh is be-
ing used for coyote feed. Something
in the same way that comparatively
valueless hay is transformed into but
ter fat. so today is horse flesh being
utilized to manufacture fine furs for
miady.
1t is possible that the time is APP
preaching when sentiment alone will
continue to make the world safe for
a few OF that fine friend of man, the
horse?

The Best Kind

1t was a worth while Christina:
present that the city council presented
to Caldwell citizens last Friday night
when they ratified an altogether salts
factory contract TO administer the dis
iribution OF Pioneer water within the
city limits.
Whether the Pioneer district has.
in the pas, done this work satis-
factorily and economically as it could
be done is beside the question For
opposition to Pioneer administration
has always been apparent and it is
confidently predicted tina, more gen.
eral satisfaction will result from city
management.
This program has been most
worthy accomplishment to be credited
to the present city administration

who felt that the city was in for
another era OF expansion, OF debt con-
traction, OF unnecessary municipal

What Next, Henry?

Henry Ford probably capped the
climax of the most unusual career OF
any American last week when he re-
nounced any intention OF accepting
the presidential nomination on either
Democratic or Progressive tickets and
declared himself rs an ardent support
err OF Calvin Coolidge.
Henry has the faculty OF doing the
surprising thing. He tried once. you
remember, to stop world war by TAX
ing a journalistic party on his peace
ship" to Europe. Long before that he
demonstrated sound business acuman
by determining that the United States
needed a cheap and. withal. substan-
tai motor car. one within the capacity
OF everyone to buy. And later he
set automobile world aflre by cutting
prices when prices were skylarking
every day.
Not content with a business sue
cess OF that sort which has made him
the wealthiest man in the world and
the only man who has accumulated
great wealth to build popularity with
every dollar added to his fortune. he
started the Dearborn Independent"
There it waged the most bitter attack
upon the Jews ever recorded in Ameri-
can journalism. Under his own name,
but without any action from Henry
Ford's mind there appears in that
publication a weekly page presumably
expressing Ford's own views. By
utilizing his automobile distribution
machine he built up circulation for
his publication and following that is
truly amazing. particularly when Mr.
Fords educational limitations are so
widely known.
He went into the railroad business
and made more friends by knocking |
prevailing rates into a cooked hat He |
wanted to develop Muscle Shoals and |
supply every American farmer with
cheap nitrogen fertilizer, at the same
time picking a neat little plum from
the orchard OF American opportunity
for himself
And now ne declares he is for Cool
idge. Henry Ford is just as good
an advertiser as his car used to be
when its cleaning brass front shone
for miles on every American high
way.
What next, Henry?
