What Is there that these commune

said: THE District is the seat of
national government, by traditional
policy under the exclusive legislative
control of Congress representing the
nation, and this wise and necessary
relation OF Capital and Nation should
not be destroyed or disturbed" The
response to this suggestion is obvious.
The exclusive legislative control of
the Capital by Congress is not dimin-

WINTER GARDEN, Fla. Aug. Is.
Surveys which have been made
throughout the citrus belt during
the past few days indicate that this
years crop Is from three TO four
weeks further advanced than that

an early ripening Of fruit and af-

ing up the use OF polish for the
time being.
When the cuticle is soft and
smooth again. go back to the regu-
lar nail polish. / do think, however.
that liquid nail polish should be re-
moved every other day and the Gu
ticie cream applied at night. Then
in the morning apply a fresh coat
of polish.
Don't try to solve the rough GU
ticle problem by soaking the hands
and then clipping off the dead ap-
pearing skin. That Is fatal TO hand
beauty. Soaking softens the cuticle
so much that ii appears dead and
when trimmed to what apparently
Is the desired state actually permits
one to cut away live cuticle that
should never have been touched.
Such treatment only coarsens the
cuticle. increasing the amount Of
care eventually required to beautify
the nails.
Just let the ragged skin alone and
keep right on using the cuticle
cream. I give you my word that your
nails will be lovely in a few days.
