Makes Her OtOn
Skin Bleach

Known for having one of the
most beautiful skins in New York,
Miss Mildred Ball, favorite artistic
and photographers model, recently
made the statement that most Of
the New York models use a skin
bleach of their own making.
According to Miss Ball, 1--WE get
three ounces. of Orchard White
from the druggist and add to it the
juice Of two lemons. This makes
a full quarter pint of a perfectly
harmless yet marvelously effective
bleach. Applied to face. neck and
arms, it bleaches any dark or dis.
colored skin beautiful rosy white.
It also makes any rough or coarse
skin soft and smooth. MahH at the
girls use it, too, for a tan and
treckle bleach. Nothing like this
wonderful mixture can be bought
ready to use because It acts best
when freshly prepared. The cost
for several weeks supply Is only
q few cents"

AURORA, Ill, March ga mother
was shot and killed last night by
county dry raiders as she bent over
her husband, who had been knocked
unconscious.
The third member of the family, q
boy Of 8, then took up the battle with
six deputy sheriffs and wounded one in
the leg before he could be disarmed.
Ohicers said they confiscated gallon
of wine in the Deking home.
The deputies said the woman was sho,
because they thought she was reaching
for one of the guns her husband hac
dropped when he slumped to the floor
after being hit with the butt Of q
deputy's pistol.
The slain woman was Mrs. Lillian
Deking, 40 years old. The man dubbed
into insensibility as he attempted to
keep the officers from entering his home
was Joseph Deking, As years old. The
son who took up the fight when both
parents lay on the floor, one of them
never to regain consciousness, was
Gerald Deking.
Driven of by Owner.
Three deputies had tried to raid the
house, on the edge Of town, earlier in
the evening. but Deking drove them of
with shotgun. Assistant States Attor-
ney Carlton Shuts said they had a
search warrant, sworn out after investi-
gators had bought liquor there.
The raiders went back to the sheriff s
Office, enlisted three more deputies and
returned to the Deking home. This time
they surrounded the house and stationed
men at each door. Again they were met
by Deking and this time he had two
guns.
Deking was knocked down by one of
the deputies. AS he dropped to the
floor, his wife ran to him. From a
group of three deputies, standing in the
doorway. came shot and she fell, fatal
ly wounded.
