ed buildings. A large number of
these rented buildings are nothing
more than shacks and poorly adapt
ed to governmental uses. The sum
of $1S2,S5 is now being paid in rent,
while there is an incalculable loss in
time caused by the remotenesS of
some Of these buildings when Off
Gals must hold conferences.
The Bureau of Internal Revenue,

large part of the funds necessary to
keep the Government operating. is so
hard pressed for space that it has

billions of dollars are likely to go up
in smoke at any hour. In that event
the loss to the Government would be
appalling and irredeemable.

ly told Congress that a saving of
$3.50, 900 a year can be made by plac-

amount of space would give working

Coolidge's reply to the Peruvian
governments memorial requesting
changes in the award of the Ameri-
can Chief Executive in his arbitration
of the Tacna-Arica dispute between
Chile and Peru has been received
without comment by the newspapers,
except La Prensa.
This newspaper, which upholds the
Peruvian governments position, has
begun a serial discussion of the reply,
which manifests a favorable recep-
tton. 1t says that the note is not a
routine one, but that it is apparent
in 1t the arbitrator has taken the op-
portunity better to explain his de-
cision and to reveal the spirit ami
mating him.
Another fact to observe in the
note" La Prensa adds, sis the cour-
teous tone, at times even cordial. 1t
IS evident that the same mind which
dictated the decision prepared the re-
ply, but the latter lacks the austere
tone of the decision.

full New Vanishing Cream Quickly
Shows a Decided Improvement.

Buttermilk Cream creates beauty
almost like magic. The most Won
derful thing about it is the fact that
whilst 1t turns the dullest, most life-
less complexion to radiant beauty
and makes red or rough hands or
arms snowy white, yet there is not
the slightest sign of its use after ap-
plication. 1t actually vanishes from
sight and the most heated atmos-
phere will not produce the least
| shininess or greasiness of the skin.
! No matter whether you are trou-
bled with a poor complexion, wrin-
kles, puff1ness around the eyes, freck-
les, crows feet or lines around the
mouth, ugly finger nails, or just a
simple roughness of the face, hands
or arms caused by wind or sun, you
will find that any or all of these
troubles will quickly disappear with
the use Of Howard's Buttermilk
