4 oAAnSAAAS NACnuk tkkdl Changing
the shaving habits of the world
Palmolive Shaving Cream is a scien-

perfect it; made up and discarded 100
formulas before we hit the right one.
We started by asking 1000 men what
they most desired in a shaving soap.
Then met their exactments one by one.
1t is different in formula, action and
effect from any other shaving prepare
ton known.
S unique advantages over
old-type soaps, creams, powders
In 5 distinct ways, this unique prepa-
ration excels over all others. You'll
note them all first time you use it. 1t
has won millions of men from old-time
preparations. Its success Is national
sensation. Men are literally Aocking to
its use.

!. /. SUPER-GAS IDEA
Holds Methods of Use and
Distribution of Present
Agents Will Improve.

Popular belief in some "super-gas"
which will wipe out whole populations
In the next war have no foundation,
according to Gen. Amos A. Fries, chief
tI the Chemical Warfare Service, in
his annual report.
Gen. Fries is a leading exponent
OF the use of gas in war for humane
reasons.
Use i'm Future.
Scientific investigation" he said.
''is making 1t more and more apparent
that future developments in the use
Of chemical agents will be concerned
more with the methods Of use and
distribution of known chemicals than
the discovery of more powerful
chemical materials. and, further, thus
the effectiveness of chemical weapons
Is due more to the large number of
temporary casualties which may be
produced than to the relatively small
number of fatalities which may be
caused" Gen. Fries said.
Denies Tuberculosis Cause.
''The chemical agents employed
during the World War are probab bly,
about as effective for the production
or casualties as any which may be dis
covered In the future"
Gen. Fries also took issue again
with the claim that exposure to war
gases induced subsequent tuberculosis.
Another year Of scientific study of the
question, he said, has shown con-
clusiVely that there is no relation be-
tween this disease and the effects
which may result from exposure to
chemical agents"
