"There's meUer flo4oSr that blooms

Byron.

Recently q noted authority on
human skin said that in the winter
time 80 per cent Of the people lack
the proper amount Of the natural
oils which the skin must have 10
keep It clear. smooth. soft and at
tractive, because harsh winter
winds and weather use up more
than the supply which the system
can furnish.
Naturally, then, If you don't
provide the skin with this deficit
ency, you must not complain of
the bad condition of your skin this
winter.
Girls and women who are using
the Cold Cream, which bears the
well-known Black and White label,
put q thin film of 1t on the skin
each night. This soothes the irrita-
ton, prevents chapping and keeps
the skin smooth and lovely. Then
in the morning they wash the sur
face with a lather Of Black and
White Soap, which don't rob the
pores, glands and skin tissue Of
the benefits they get from the cold
cream during the night.
Black and White Cold Cream,
soap, etc., are economically priced
in liberal packages. The soc size
Black and White Cold Cream con-
tains nearly three times as much
as the 25c size and can be had Of
most all dealers.

There was also a strong upturn in

COPPER SFEATURE
Of METAL MARKET
Lead and Zinc Prices Also
Higher During Week-SteeI
Orders Slow.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, December 27.-New
buying of steel was naturally cur
tailed during the week by the holiday
season, but the tone of the market
was decidedly firm and whatever new
prices were named were at advances.
Producers will enter the new year
with their books well filled with or
ders and the steel trade as a whole
was very optimistic regarding the flu
ture' and producers were anticipating in
creased activity. Pig iron was decidedly
firm and sales, while small, were con-
sidered very satisfactory for the season
of the year.
The copper market was decidedly
strong throughout the week, prices
climbing steadily to new high rec
ords for the year on an active alb
sorbing demand, which sent electro
lytic to 14B cents. Some authorities
maintained that the demand is now
running equal to if not in excess Of
production, which many think is at
full capacity under present labor con-
ditions.
Tin was firmer, prices getting with
In fraction of the previous high of
the year. The clean-u up Of pool stocks
In the Far East and good bust
ness outlook for next year served to
Offset indications of liberal increase
in the visible supply. Trading was
fairly active up to Wednesday, but
buyers are now reluctant about fol-
lowing the advice.
Lead scored another advance, but
the leading producers quotation is
still well below the general market
Heavy consumption here and in Eu-
rope is expected to tax the capacity
of smelters and serves to create I'M
easiness owing to the absence OF new
sources of supply.
Zinc strong and higher, with good
domestic demand and continued ex-
port buying, with producers pretty
well sold up and offerings light.
Anthony advanced sharply, owing
to continued light offerings from
China and a fairly active domestic
demand.

SETBACK IN GRAIN PIT.
Profit Taking Follows Rise to New
Records.

Records.
CHICAGO. December 27.-Heayv
profit-taking sales at the last today
led to setback after a wave Of gem
eral buying had hoisted all grain,
with wheat up 8 cents a bushel in
some cases. Wheat closed unsettled at
a range varying from u net decline
to advance; May, 1908 to 1909,
and July. 1.53M.
Following the usual holiday dull
ness early in the week the grain mar
kets turned sharply higher and wheat
and rye prices reached new high
levels, according to the grain market
review of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, for the week
ending December 81 Prices of other
grains also made moderate gains, with
good demand prevailing for oats
and barley. The demand for corn,
however, was only moderate, as the
high prices are forcing the most
economical use of this grain and the
substitution of other grains where
possible.
Oats pices gained about cents and
there was an active demand from ele-
Vators and feeders. With cash oats
about cents under the May price, IL is
very profitable to store oats for the
carrying charge and elevator interests
are buying good amounts for storage.
