HELPFUL ADVICE TO
ACNE SUFFERERS

For acne pimples affecting the
outer or surface layer of the skin,
here is advice that will help i'm
prove your complexion.
Every night at bedtime, wash
your face thoroughly with Resinol
Soap and hot water. Do not rub.
Follow with a dash of cold water
and dry thoroughly but gently.
Then apply Resinol Ointment to
the affected skin and leave it on all
night. Do this every night, and
watch the improvement.
Local treatment is advised as
helpful aid in acne cases, and for
more than 40 years the ingredients
of Resinol have been found ef-
fective.
Resinol benefits by treating the
frritated oil ducts, where most sur
face pimples start. In this way it
aids healing of such pimples and
also tends to check their recurrence.
Buy Resinol Ointment and Soap
in any drug store. For free SAM

LIQUOR BOARD
FACES ROW

Spirited opposition over the pro
posal of the District Alcoholic
Beverage Control Board for an
amendment to the liquor law to
prohibit transfer of licenses and
for an amendment to limit the
number of on-sale retail liquor
establishments is expected when
the District Commissioners fix
date for a hearing on the recon-
mendations.
A year ago when the city heads
conducted a hearing and later
adopted a limit of 400 for pack
aGe liquor stores, the liquor in.
dustry turned out enmasse to air
its views.
In seeking Congressional
amendment to the liquor laws 70
abolish transfers, the board in
formed the commissioners that
such a change was very neces-
sary, as it will do away with the
racket which has developed in
sale of liquor licenses" 1t was
reported at the hearing a year ago
that in some cases licenses were
sold for as high as $4,000.
The limit on the retail on-sale
stores of 300 for stores selling all
types of liquor and 400 for places
selling beer and wine was urged to
relieve the economic stress of too
much competition, which encOur-
ages the licensees Ito chisel."
