There is one simple. safe and sure way that never fails to get rid of blackheads, that is to dissolve them. To do this get two ounces of calonite powder from any drug store-sprinkle a little on a hot, wet cloth-rub over the blackheads briskly wash the parts and you will be surprise ed how the blackheads have disappeared Big blackheads, little blackheads, no mat ter where they are, simply dissolve and disappear. Blaekheads are simply mix ture of dust and dirt and secretions that form in the pores of the skin.

Dr. And Mrs ". N. Thomas Tell Of Trip
 To Stockholm

Dr. and Mrs. William Nelson Thomas, formerly of St. Louis, now of Birmingham, who have been at tending the Baptist World Alliance at Stockholm, and touring Europe, write from London in a most in teresting way of their impressions at the Alliance.
 In letter to a former student, Dr. Thomas says: "In the public sing ing, one was reminded of the Pente tcos, when every man heard in his own tongue the wonderful words of God, for each nationality and there were twenty-three represented among the $500 delegates, was requested to join in his own language. The hyms were printed in four languages in the Congress hymn books, but they were known in many more of the languages of the throng.
 One of the most pathetic sights of the conference was the effort of some of these people to express to Americans their appreciation of ma terial help during the past few years. One day Mrs Thomas and I were surrounded by company of people, whose spokesman, in broken English and almost with tears, thanked us ss representatives of their benefac- tors. We were glad that we had had the privilege of contributing something to that particular work.
 We are impressed with the belief that this great meeting will contrib ute to a better feeling between the peoples represented The messages they will carry back of good will and friendship will sid to a larger view and g larger confidence in one another
 It was a pleasure to meet so many of our Southern friends at this gath ering, probably the most important of it's kind in history, and to have pr. Mullins elected president of the body.
 Every continent and several islands from Japan and China to the Indian or the East and the Indian of our own land, but about half of the dele gates were from the United States.
 One of the most remarkable things about the convention was the address, es, which were made in a number of languages and translated for us. It was one of the thrilling events of the Congress to have much of the fire and fervor of the first speaker carried over into the speech of the interpreter"
 Dr, Thomas came from St. Louis to Birmingham late in 1922 to fill the uneXpired term of Professor $. J. Pulliam, head of the department of Greek and Latin, at Howard Col lege. Mrs. Thomas joined him in the spring. They were so delighted with the Southland, that they will continue to make their home in Birmingham, where both will be connected the coming year with Howard College.
