I owe my youthful beauty largely to super-clay, perfected by French ex- perts.
 The first clays I used were crude and muddy, as many clays are still. But they multiplied my beauty. The clay l now use has been perfected by 20 years of scientific study. It is white, refined and dainty. The re- suits it brings are amazing compared with old-type clays.
 Now, after 40 years as a stage star, I still look a girl of 19.
 Every Woman's Duty
 The use of clay is every woman's duty to herself. No girl can look her best without it, no woman can keep her youth.
 Look about you. Note the wonder full complexions due to clay. The mothers who look like daughters.
 Clay purges the skin of all that clogs it--the cause of sallowness, blackheads and blemishes. It brings the blood to the skin to nourish 1t. The result is that rosy afterglow which so amazss and delights.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 20.-Fish constitute the sole source of petrol cum, in the opinion of Dr. John M. MacFarlane, for many years profess sor of botany at the University of Pennsylvania.
 According to the statement, Dr. MacFarlane, in reaching the conclu- sion that fish constitute the sole source of petroleum, emphasized these points:
 "That a knowledge of this fact will enable man to locate with al- most scientific accuracy new oil de- posits.
 That there Is no danger of the exhaustion of the worlds oil supply.
 That the recognition of scientific principles regarding the origin and location of fish deposit beds will re- suit in the cheaper production of oil and hasten the development of its commercial status for motive power and heating purposes.

 ito favor black and all shades of brown for daytime;
 ito choose for evening wear white, or your favorite among the rose shades, the rather strong greens, or the lighter blues;
 ito use woolen materials for morning dresses, moire or velvet for afternoon and anything you may like for evening; for the latter, especially the lanes, velvets and the printed metal velvets; keep your street skirts eight inches from the floor;
 your afternoon ones should be slight ly longer. and your evening gowns should touch the ankle bone. With these general instructions to fol- low and good fur coat or wrap to SUD- plement them, you may safely plan your winter.

Pony Express
Off For Record
Continued from page y

Plans to have two teams OF riders
starting from st. Joseph to battle
against each other as well as
against time were abandoned at the
last minute. The only team to make
the race will be the farmers. The
United States cavalrymen, expected
to make the race, did not enter.
The setting for the start of the
first rider, Robert Lee Shepherd,
was as near approXimating condi-
tions in 1860 us week of preparation
could make it.
All who attended the ceremonies
were required to dress in the styles
of the crinoline days. Shepherd
got under way at the bank of the
Missouri river and was carried across
the wafer on Il ferry. Ok teams,
their drivers garbed in hickory and
tall boot, were at the river bank.
Mayor George Z. McIninich, pre-
sumed to represent Jeff Thomp-
son, Mayor of st. Joseph in 1860,
and made brief address. He spoke
the same prophetic word Thomp-
son used.
"Within few years messages
will be carried by telegraph and
mail by steam to the Pacific coast
and cities will spring up along the
way and the desert will be made to
bloom.'
During the parting ceremonies,
beside Shepherd was Charles Cliff,
so year old resident of st. Joseph
and one of the few surviving old
pony express riders. He wore the
tattered suit in which he rode in
1860.
After being fcrricd across the
river the race started in earnest.
Shepherd, riding a large bay saddle
horse, "Beauty," disappeared down
the winding road toward Troy
Junction, Kansas, where the first
change in mounts will be made.
Fifty riders and $50 horses are
participating in the drive to carry
the mails over plains, mountains,
deserts, rivers and down the Pa
cific slope in record time. Riders
will be changed every fifty miles,
horses every ten miles in flat coun-
try and every mile where the grade
is heavy. The finish is scheduled
for Sunday, September 9.
