fresh and Lowell "they've simply got to- YOU
know said Gloria Gould prevent all weari-
ness from showing and guard the satin smooth
ness of their exquisite complexions

The second step in the Ponds Method
is to smooth over your newly Cleansed
face light film of Ponds Vanishing
Cream. This you must always do
before powdering, never forgetting
to do it before going out into the
wind, sun, dust or cold.
The purpose of this delicate cream
is four-fold-it protects the skin from
the weather, gives it a soft, smooth
finish and holds rouge and powder
evenlyandlong And used betweenthe
cleansings with Ponds Cold Cream, it
freshens and rests the skin, too.

How the younger set does it

THE first step in the Ponds method followed bv
i the lovely younger women of society is
thorough daily cleansing of the skin with Ponds
Cold Cream This should come after exposure,
at the end of long day or just before retiring
Smooth the cream over the face and neck,
with liberal strokes across any little lines that
are beg inning to weave their unwelcome pat
tern on the delicate tissues. Let the pure oil of
this cream delve down into the pores and bring
up the dust and CRIME, the powder and rouge
that clog them. Wipe it off now, with soft
cloth and instead of being shocked, just rejoice
at the black look it gives you. Repeat the proc
ess, finishing with dash of cold water or brisk
rub with bit of ice.
Your peony pink skin will make you think
your face has never been really clean before
How relaxed it feels, how fresh and invigorated
Supple and flexible now, it has tone and hrmness
too, just glows all over with new health
Evening star., 1924-10-05

Like Gloria Gould and the other
smart young women Of the exclusive
social set everywhere, you can have an
exquisite complexion. Begin today
with Ponds Two Creams. AT once
you'll notice a new freshness, new
smoothness, lovely lustre And the
daily use of these Two Creams will
keep your skin just as exquisite as this
for years. With Gloria Gould you'll
agree that Ponds Two Creams '.are

Foreign Seed to
Blame for Killing

Madison, Wis. European clover
seed and not the weatherman is to
blame for seedlings of clover which
die out in Wisconsin, according to R.
A. Moore, agronomist of the Wisconsin
college of agriculture.
Southern European clover seed is
worthless in Wisconsin," he declared.
at is now definitely known that every
year hundreds of tons of this clover
seed is shipped to this country and
placed upon the markets in various
states. Through experiments carried
on by different agricultural scientists
it has been found that this clover
seed is entirely worthless and very
deceptive.
"Many of our seedmen are selling
the European varieties of clover seed
without knowing its origin. 1t comes
to the country, goes out to the various
seed boards of trade, and is sent out
from there with the identity entirely
lost. Many seedsmen purchasing by
sample will naturally take to the fine
appearance of much of this seed and
will purchase it in large quantities.
tOur farmers should refuse to pur-
chase clover seed unless its origin is
known. Wisconsin. grows enough
clover seed to furnish all farmers in
the state with home grown seed.
