TNthe South, beautiful hands have always l been the sign of charm and breeding.
 "How do you do it? What is your secret, your precious method?" ask women eagerly of those who have had good for tune in caring for their skin.
 The answer is very simple. The skin of almost every girl is naturally beautiful, soft and exquisite. But household duties, outdoor sports, the careless use of harsh soaps, damage naturally lovely skins.
 To Southern women goes the credit for discovering how to keep hands beautiful. They learned that frequent rinsing, all through the day, after each slight soiling, restored the whiteness of their pretty hands. Surface dirt could not intrude and stay and eoarsen the pores by working in.

 Southern women found a soap with the special mild, cleansing father which they wanted. It's called Oragon Toilet Soap. A Purewhite soap with faint clean fragrance.

Prescription He Wrote
in 1892 is the Worlds
Most Popular Laxative

When DR.. Caldwell started to
Iractiee medicine, back in 1875, the
needs for a laxative were not as
great as they are today. People
lived normal, quiet lives, ate plain,
wholesome food, and got plenty OF
fresh air and sunshine. But even
that early there were drastic phys-
les and purges for the relief of con-
stipation which DIR. Caldwell did
not believe were good for human
beings to put into their system. So
ne wrote prescription for a. laxa-
tive 70 be used by his patients.
The prescription for constipation
that he used early in his practice.
and which he put in drug stores in
1892 under the name of DR.. Cald
wells Syrup Pepsin, is a LIQUID
vegetable remedy, intended for
women, children and elderly people
and they need Just such a mild. safe
gentle bowel stimulant as Syrup
Pepsin.
Under successful management this
prescription has proven its worth
and is now the largest selling liquid
laxative in the world. The fact that
millions of bottles are used a year
proves that it has won the confidence
of people who needed it to get relief
from headaches, biliousness, flatu-
ience, indigestion, loss of appetite
and sleep, bad breath, dyspepsia,
colds and fevers.
Millions of families are now never
without DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin, and if you will once start using
it you will also always have a bottle
handy for emergencies. .

MANY A LAND SHOULD BUILD A "GORGAS
HOSPITAL"

When the United States forces landed in Cuba
almost thirty years ago, they faced enemy more
formidable than any human array:
yellow Jackp was entrenched throughout the
island. Spaniards and Cubans alike paid him heavy
toll, and none then dreamed he could be conquered
and banished not only from the Pearl of the Antilles
but from all the New World Many an American
soldier died Of yellow fever after Santiago de Cuba
was captured, and hundreds in the Spanish army
perished likewise before ships could be obtained to
take King Alfonsos men to their homeland
On January l, 1899, the Stars and Stripes re
placed Spain's flag at Havana. That city was in
miserable condition.; yellow fever was. prevalent
The sanitation there was entrusted to Maj. William
G. Gorgas, who had been Regular Army surgeon
for 18 years.
Within comparatively short time Gorgas and
his colleagues among them Mai. Walter Reed ard
Ileutenants Jesse w. LaZear and James Carroll-be
came convinced that yellow fever was transmitted
by the Stegomyla mosquito. Lazear died. a victim
10 his experiments with infected insects which he
had allowed to bite him freely; and several enlisted
men heroicaly devoted themselves to like service
Directing his energies to mosquito eradication
in and around Havana, Mai. Gorgas permanently
1vanqushed Yellow Jack there during 1902 In
March, 1903, he was promoted to colonecy by spe-
cial act of Congress-
An even harder task lay just ahead however
The Gnlted States was preparing to construct a
canal across the Isthn1us of Panama-an enterprise
which had baffled Count Ferdinand de Lesseps who
0NA~o Ae@CA
much as physical difficulties, had been responsible
for the French engineers lamentabe failure
Backed by well trained staff Col Gorgas be-
gan the crowning work of his life in 1904 Malaria
as well as yellow fever, was prevalent there; and
many critics asserted that the Canal Zone never
could be rendered habitabe for men from temperate
qlimes Long before the waterway was finished
Yellow Jack again had met defeat at his first con
queror's hands.
Col Gorgas established great hospital at An
con, near Panama (city). That institution is named
Gorgas Hospital now and is worthy memorial to an
officer whose services were given for all mankind
Gorgas was appointed Surgeon General, United
State Army, in 1914, and was accorded major gen
erals grade the following year He then drove vel
low fever from Guayaquil (Ecuador) and in 1920
ne died at London while on the way to investigate
health conditions in West Africa
His services during the Great War were
eminent, but Gen. Gorgas ever will be remembered
best for his achievements in Cuba and the Canal
Zone He saved thousands Of lives throughout both
regions and hospital in his honor Should be reared
