RECIPE TO CLEAR
 A P|MPLY SKIN
Pimples Are Impurities seeking An
 Outlet Through Skin Pores

Pimples, sores and boils usually re- suit from toxins, poisons and impuri- ties which are generated in the bowels and then absorbed into the blood through the very ducts which should absorb only nourishment to sustain the body.
 It is the function of the kidneys to filter impurities from the blood and cast them out in the form of urine, but in many instances the bowels ere, ate more toxins and impurities than' the kidneys can eliminates; then thu blood uses the skin pores as the next best means of getting rid of these impurities, which often break out all over the skin in the form of pimples.
 The surest way to clear the skin Of these eruptions. says noted authori- ty, is to get from any pharmacy about four ounces Of lad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a glass Of water each morning before breakfast for ono week. This will help prevent the for nation Of toxins in the bowels. II also stimulates the kidneys. thus coax ing them to filter the blood of inn purities and clearing the skin of pim- ples.

 "Wiil you let mo know if you leave here?" he asked
 "Yes-since you wish 1t"
 They parted and he ran down tho steps. scarcely seeing them. He felt that he already loved this woman with his whole soul. The tremen- dous emotion swept him. while req son and common sense protested.
 Mark leaped aboard the waiting motor boat and they were soon speed ing back to Dartmouth, while Doria spoke eagerly. But the passenger felt little disposed to gratify the Italians curiosity. Instead he asked him few questions respecting him self and found. that the other de- lighted to discuss his own affairs. Doria revealed a southern levity and self satisfaction that furnished Bren- don with something to think about before the launch ran to the landing stage at Dartmouth.
 How comes it you are not back in your own country. now the war is over?" he asked Doria.

 Brendon found his thoughts who'll ly occupied with Jenny Pendcan. Was it within the bounds of poss- bIlity that she. as time passed to dim her sufferings and scnse of loss, might look twice at this extraordinary being? He wondered. but thought it improbable. Moreover the last Of the Dorias evidently aimed at greater position and greater wealth than Michael Pendcan's widow had to offer. Mark found himself despising the ex- traordinary creature, who violated 20 frankly and checrfully every English standard of reserve and modesty.

PARALYZEDBY
RAIL STRIKE
Main Lines Tied Up by Pas
Sive Resistance to French
Occupation
FOOD STUFFS MOVING
France Seeks to Recruit Men
For Service In Poland to
Man Industries
(By the Associated Press.)

Dusseldorf, Jan. 25.-Virtually
the entire railway system of the
Ruhr valley and the occupied terri
tory Immediately adjoining was par
alyzed today by strike of the rail
way men.
The Reorganization of public util-
ties which has been slowly spreading
throughout the Ruhr since the be-
ginning of the Franco Belgian occu-
patton thus received great impetus.
The main rail lines on both the
right and left banks of the Rhine are
tied up along a stretch Of nearly so
miles between Vessel to the north
of Duesseldorg and Cologne south of
this city. The Paris Berlin and War
saw-Paris expresses are stalled in
the Dusseldorf stations. Two trains
of foodstuffs from Holland repre-
sented the only movement by rail in
to the interior of the Ruhr during
the morning.
In addition the telegraph and tele-
phone employees of the postal selv-
ice informed General Denvings to-
day that the operators would strike
at midnight. The French commander
replied with threat that the lead
ers would be sent to Jail. The mo-
bile crew of telegraphers which GUS
tomarily follows President Millerand
on his official tours has arrived in
Dusseldorf and is ready to take
over the service in the event of
strike.
