A RE you well aware of a very
~ definite skin trouble, and yet
n in q quandary as to what to
4 \ do about it? II so, you are
one of a vast throng Of girls and
women who hesitate to spend money
on large, expensive jars of cosmetics
with which they are unfamiliar; be-
cause bitter experience has taught
them that although the product in
itself may be excellent, it Is not what
they themselves needed.
This situation has been realized by
one beautician, and as a result all of
her corrective skin products have
been made available for trial at
minimum price. There are six differ
ent treatments which are put up In
individual cartons, each containing
explicit directions as to their use. at
81 each. Let us see Just what they
will do for you.
An important treatment Is the one
indicated for acne. This contains
paste to open the pores and cleanse
them Of blackheads, q circulation
stimulant to aid the skin in doing its
own work. together with suitable
cream and lotion and a small box of
face powder that Is safe To use under
these conditions. Here you have
everything that you require to give
yourself q short course Of treatments
for acne and get it well started toward
q hasty retreat. When you find that
you are deriving definite benefit, you
will probably want to get full-sized
jars of these preparations and con-
tinue the good work.
Then there is the treatment for
"crepy' throat, which is coupled with
suggestions for the eyes. This con-
tains an astringent jelly for the flabby
muscles. an anti-wrinkle cream, eye
lid lotion and oily skin tonic. Each
treatment contains Q box of face
powder.
Other treatments relate to dry skin
and extremely sensitive dry skin, oily
skin, and large pores and blackheads.
All simplified and accompanied by
instructions that leave nothing to
chance, these corrective preparations
will be welcomed by hosts Of women
who will discover how valuable an
individual treatment may be when
properly used.

rn girl is better-looking than her
grandmother was because she not only
has all that Nature gave her. but also
knows a thousand tricks of beautiflca-
ton of which her grandmother never
dreamed. She is better educated and
hence more entertaining, amusing and
interesting than grandmother was.
She is better dressed. She is better
dancer. She plays better game Of
cards. She is better at all sorts of
indoor and outdoor sports than
grandma was. Yet, in spite of pos
sessing all of this varied line of come
ons, she does not receive the atten-
tions from men that grandmother
did. and she finds it far more difficult
to get married.
In grandmother's day every pretty
girl had dates to burn. Boys flocked
around her like bees around honey
pot. Any maiden who did not receive
three or four bona fide proposals of
marriage before she was out of her
teens hung her head in shame and
thought seriously of embracing a re-
ligious life and entering convent.

The inference behind that situation
has been plain since the Internal Rev.
enue Bureau started out to break up
the Long political machine with in
come tax prosecutions. It Is that If
you want to stay out of Federal tax
troubles you apparently stand better
chance on the New Deal side.
Political Master Mind.
Those on the rim of the inner circle
here credit Internal Revenue Commits
sioner Helvering for the wave of tax
prosecutions against political oppo-
nents. The reason is obvious. His ex-
perience has been more political than
fiscal. He was chairman of the State
Democratic Committee in Kansas when
appointed to control Of Federal tax
matters.
However, those within the circle
know that the real credit in most cases
should 60 to General Counsel Oliphant
of the Treasury Department. His ex-
perience was confined to law professor
ships at Marion College, Chicago, Co
lumbia and Johns Hopkins. As brain
truster he has modestly managed to
conceal the fact that he has lately de-
veloped into shrewd political master
mind.
It was Mr.. Oliphant who did the
master-ninding on the Raskob-Du
Pont case.
The Treasury neglected to include in
the recent list of persons earning
more than $4,000 year the name of
Charles Nicholson, publicity man of
the Democratic National Committee.
He gets $400 a week, and earns it.

"OR six long years John J. Ras-
- kob's 1929 income tax stood ap-
proved by the Internal Revenue
L Bureau. 1t suddenly developed
spontaneous symptoms of fraudulent
plot in the early part of this January,
1896.
Mr.. Raskob said he thought the time
of discovery had something to do with
the coming dinner of his and Mr.. du
Points American Liberty League. Mi.
Raskob may have his dinners mixed
What he may not know is that the
bureau charge against him was filed
in public record on January 6, two days
before the Jackson day dinner. The
bureau apparently was not very proud
of it. At least the record lay around
four days until an alert newsman, with
a sharper eye than his colleagues, dug
it out and published it two days after
the dinner
Hint of Suit in Note.
If Mr.. Raskob will scrape his mem-
ory he may recall another thing that
happened just before the Jackson day
dinner; say. for instance, certain
communication he made to Postmaster
General Farley. He may recollect that
it was something to the effect that he
wanted that S25, 900 which Mr.. Farley's
Democratic National Committee still
owes him. Also something about SUING
Mr.. Farley for the money if the SIS 900
was not paid from all those thousands
of dollars collected for the s50-a-plate
