skin and form blemlshes.
Blackheads, large pores and
acne are all caused by faulty
elimination. Sometimes poor
circulation is unavoidable and
chronic for period of time
as with the adolescent boy or
girl or an i'll person-but in
most cases where the skin is
blemished and the muscles are
flabby and Sagging, you can
chalk it up against indifference
or laZineSS.
If more women would invest
in a course of corrective ex-
ercises and a scientific skin
patter, there would be fewer
skin problems. For nothing is
more essential to facial beauty
than proper exercising of the
body and local exercising of
the skin.
Those of you whose jobs are
sedentary should use a skin pat.
ter every day. It is invalu-
able when you are caring for
your skin at home. The toning
effect will do much to over
come the i'll effects caused by
a sluggish, choked circulation.
A very splendid face patter-
one that has been used very
successfully for some time in a
prominent Fifth Avenue beauty
salon-has just been put on the
market. Up to this time it has
been used exclusively in spe-
cial salon treatments for sal
low and blemished compilations.
This patter is really sanitary.
It is made entirely of the finest
surgical steel and is remarkably
resilient and flexible. The
smooth side of the disk is for
patting in creams or for gen.
eral skin exercise; the hollow
side, which you fill with cotton
saturated by your favorite ton

deeply into your skin to arouse
lazy pores.
After the treatment, you re-
move the soft cotton cushion
and thoroughly cleanse the pat
ter. You may sterilize it by
boiling.
The benefit your skin receives
by using this scientific skin
exerciser is worth many times
the price you pay for it.

Clothes
StiIIHoId
Spot
By BEAU McALLIsTER

It looks as though we just
can't get away from sports
clothes-but then everybody
wears them almost every
where, excepting, of course,
to formal evening parties,
dinners and such.
This so-called return Of
elegance hasn't changed the
average yen for sports
clothes one bit-and they are
worn to cocktail parties in
Washington as much as ever.
Of course, this cannot be ap-
piled to other cities as it can
to the Capital. But here the
majority of women have al
ways dressed independently
and they always will. Usually
the result is very good-but
sometimes it is bad.
Mrs. Dion Kerr is DeGring
smart rough tUeed topcoat

long along SDdgger lines. Her
hat is bro1Dn felt and the scarf
at her throat is sometimes
pinned Uith the most tGScin1t-
ing pin. 1t is studded with
brilliGntS.
Liz Harris, otherwise Mrs.
Bucky Harris, is wearing
brown tweed topcoat with a
leather belt. With this she
wears hat made of brown silk,
turned up in the back and down
in front. Liz has a suit which
is stunning. The skirt is dark
brown and the jacket brown
and white tweed, trimmed with
beaver fur. With this she wears
a smart off-the-face hat, with an
attractively rolled brim which
is stitched in fine rows.

Ammonia Bleach

Dear Miss Shelby:
Can you tell me the proper
proportion of ammonia to be
used in making a bleach for
superfluous hair? Will it per-
manently Danish the growth?
What type of ammonia is to be
used? Sincerely, M. L.
Dear n. L.:
Peroxide and ammonia make
a splendid bleach. However,
you must never apply it too
close to the eyes, and you should
stuff your nostrils with cotton
so that the fumes will not be
inhaled.
The proportions are 6 drops Of
household ammonia to three
tablespoonfuls of peroxide. If
the hair is very dark, add q
little more peroxide. Allow 1t
to dry on the facial hair and
then pat in a drop or two Of
pure olive oil.
This bleach will tend to dis
courage the growth Of the hair
on TIE face. but I do not believe
any superfluouS hair can be 1er-
manently banished by any
method other than electrolysis.

A step of far-reaChing Importance IN
The development OF the Priest Rapids
Irrigation district has been taken by
The decision Of the board OF directors
TO retain Professor James G., WOODBURY.
OF Pullman Washington, to make a
complete and comprehensive survey OF
the districts properties and Of all the
lands lying under the ditch.
The findings OF this survey will re-
veal the future trend of all improve

provide q definite plan TO which all
further development will conform thus
eliminating guess work and wasted eX-
penditures Of money and labor. 1t VIII
also put to an end many small prob
lens which confront the directors.
Mr.. WOODBURY. is now engaged In the
study of old maps and records OF the
Hartford Irrigation and Power company
in connection with a survey OF the
distribution system. He will also study
the seepage and loss Of water in the
distribution canal and will check the
efficiency of the pumps at the Coyote
pumping plant.
Mr.. WOODBURY. is head of the by
draulics department of the State Col
lege of Washington and has been very
highly recommended for this type OF
project, possessing a practical knowl-
edge of hydraulics as we'll as being a
technician of high quality. His ser

directors through the efforts of E. F.

Professor WOODBURY. to be released
from his college duties while the sur

engineer will be brought In by the
district to make a classification of all
the lands in the valley With this
classification the district will be able
to determine what lands are suitable
for irrigation

According to w. j. Kincaid chair
man of the board of directors, some
of the laterals are now in poor shape
and will have to be replaced in the
near future BY following the engineers
recommendations the board will be
able TO determine the best means of
making this repair work and at the
same time will be able to incorporate
them into their plans for future devel-
opment.
Mr. WOODBURY. was in the valley

Committee Drafts
Late Potato Code

In order to correct many wrong M
pressions concerning the early potato
code, 3. K. Gage, manager of the code
committee, has sent statement to all
interested in the potato industry, IN
which he states that there has been
no recent change in code regulations
and no release of price control.
At the present time, says Mr.. Gage,
there is no control price and tags do
not have to be affixed on potatoes to
be shipped out of the state. The mini
mum on Cobblers within the state is
10 cents per cwt. The minimum price
on Melted Gems, U. S. No. l, is 90
cents cWt. The minimum on Netted
Gems, us. No. 2, is 60 cents per cWt.
All of the above prices are fob.
shipping point and transportation
charges must be added Local grown
round whites and all varieties other
than Gems must sell for at least the
Cobbler minimum regardless of where
grown.
There has been some confusion IN
policing regulations on the Sound ana
tributary to Spokane on account VI
heavier supplies of home grown po-
tatoes. There has been some misunder-
standing about the code affecting these
local grown potatoes All potatoes
grown in the state, asserts Mr.. Gage
come under the code.
In order to protect those who are
shipping at greater distances, the codt
committee is putting on additional
men to police the requirements OF int

ton of the Early Potato Code com
mittee to continue to function for
least another ten days. In order Il
render better service to the Wapato
Toppenish district, the committees OIL
flee was moved Tuesday to Yakima.
A late potato code is in the max
ing, says Mr.. Gage. There is to be
meeting of the organization COMMITTEE
this week to go over the details OF tn
code. The present plans are to reVam
the present marketing agreement SO a
to establish a minimum price to TN
grower rather than price fob. car

COUPLE OVERCOME
BY HEAT, THIRST

Mr.. and Mrs Guy Smith OF Wlnona,
Minnesota, are now at the home OF
Charles Kent recovering from a most
narrowing experience. Mr.. and Mrs.
Smith started out to make their way
from Winona to White Bluffs. From
Deer Lodge, Montana, they rode
straight through on freight to 9th
clio 1t was there that their Difficult
ties began.
Upon making Inquiries, Mr. Smith
was informed that it wasn't far to the
river, just a few miles; to take the new
road; and, that there was lots OF traf-
fic, they would be certain to get a
ride. And so, early one morning OF the
day it was 1913 in the shade, he and
Mrs. Smith started out.
Matt Wiehl, on his way to the garden,
met a man with frothing lips and a
swollen tongue Recognizing from his
condition that the wanderer was al
most perisi1ing from heat and thirst,
he helped him into the yard and
drenched him with cold water, With
holding as long as possible the drink
for which he begged. When the man
had recovered sufficiently, he said that
his wife had given out someplace along
the road, SO they took a car and went
in search Of Mrs. Smith, finding her In
the sagebrush about eight miles from
the river, Frustrated by the heat ano
long hike In addition to the long tref
long hike.
In addition to the long trek from
Othello, Smith had added an extra
eight miles when he saw what NJ
though to be water hole in the dis
lance. Both he and Mrs. Smith re.
covered rapidly, and after supper a
the Wiehl home were taken to tfei
destination on this side OF the river
