SINCLAIR LOSES LAST
FIGHT FOR FREEDOM

The last hope of Harry r. Sinclair
that he might escape serving 90
day term in the District Jail for
contempt of the United States SEN
ate flickered out today when the
United States Supreme Court dis
missed his petition for rehearing a
review.
The court two weeks ago af-
firmed his sentence, but Sinclair
chose to take his ''thousand-to-one
chance" of securing a rehearing,
and thereby delay the hour when
he must surrender himself for i'm
prisonment.
Acting with its customary
alacrity in such cases, the high
court speedily rejected his petition
today.

There has been q moderate amount
of drinking in the dining room. The

from overworkess.
AS a matter of fact, there has been
less drinking on the whole ship in

buried near the airplane. The
body of Anderson lay half concealed

In the face Of President Hoover's
bristling disapproval, the Senate
Agriculture Committee today voted,
z to s, to retain the debenture-
export plan in the Senate'S farm
relief bill.
It il regarded more or less an
idle gesture. for there is little or no

active opposition to it, or that the

Pure lemon Juice Is patted on the
hair and allowed TO dry. IL may
be used several times daily, and If
II is strong enough in your al re-
suits will be observed after six or
seven applications.
If such a time comes when
bleaching no longer prevents hair
on the face and arms from marring
ones appearance some method Of
removing 1t should be adopted. bus
only after careful elaboration and
perhaps consultation with a reliable
physician. Unless, Of course, you
don't mind removing the hair your
self with a depilatory.
In all probability your doctor will
suggest having the roots Of the hair
killed by the use Of an electric
needle and will recommend a thor
oughly reliable person who special
ICES in this work so that the posi-
bllity OF III effects from such a pro-
cedure is minimized.
II you want TO remove the hair
yourself. however, you have a wide
choice OF brands of d~epilatories, but
this array Of names Sits down to
three types perhaps being better
kncwn-the paste or cream form,
the powder and the wax.
There is little If any difference
in the results obtained from the
use of paste and powder depilato-
ries. Both are only a chemical
shave, removing the hair at the
surface Of the skin. The cream or
paste comes in tubes and is ready
for use; the powder form must

paste or cream before it can Be
used.
In either case the hair grows back
within a short time and must be
removed again.
The wax depilatories, a depilating

electric needle treatments come
under this classification, tool break
off the hairs below the surface Of
the skin and so 1t takes longer for

appearance above the surface OF
the skin. This in itself is a de-
cided advantage. However, the APP
plicaticn OF wax depilatories re-
quiTes more care than Is needed for
the paste or cream forms.
The wax must be thoroughly
heated before 1t Is placed over the
hair and yet 1t must not be hot
enough to burn the skin. Also il
must be removed at Just the right
temperature or else 1t will harden.
which makes Its removal not only
difficult, but extremely painful.
There Is some pain even when tie
wax Is at the correct temperature
and IL Is advisable to remove the
hair only a very small area at one

The action OF these wax depila-
tories Is much the same as SMOOTH
