THE TACOMA TIMES.
LOUISIANA DIDN'T WANT HER FACE
WASHED—BUT SHE FEELS
BETTER NOW
Anybody can lead a dirty
faced liltle boy up to a bowl of
water, a cake of soap and a wash
rag, but only a determined moth
er can wash his face.
About the largest job of the
sort yet accomplished was pui
over by Doc Dowling of Shreve
port, La.
He washed Louisiana's face!
Something like two years ago
the doctor was made chief healln
officer down in that sunny, moist
state.
"If the people won't come to
the health department for obser
vation," the doctor observed, "the
health department will go to the
people."
That was how the "gospel of
healili train" got started. Jesting
citizens called it the "bug train"
or the "microbe cars.' It traveled
over 7,000 miles and visited 236
towns and cities. It was prac
tically the entire state health de
partment, including the chief, be
sides a moving picture outfit and
THE LAW ON LOAN SHARKS
The slat.- law proliihitH ANYBODY from charging ANT
BOOT more than TWELVE I'ER C'K.N T a year mi any kind of
a loan!
If Tolnian, or Drake, or the "State Security Co.** or any
other loan shark hns attempted to Colled MORE THAN (>\l
I'KK CENT A MONTH from yon. aiuli-r any pretext whatever,
come to the Times office and state your ease.
You need not pity one cent of interest if such an attempt
at extortion has been made.
No matter what the sharks tell you; if they try to annoy
yon at your home or place of business swear out a warrant
for them.
Uut above all, REFUSE TO I'AY Till-: INTEREST IF IT
IS MORK THAN TWELVE l'Klt CENT A YKAIt.
THAI'S THK LAW!
a ton or so of health literature.
At each stopping place Dr.
Dowling delivered health lectures,
telling the people that It wasn't
necessary that each should "eat
a peck of dirt, anyhow," and
that if they ate only half a peek
they would live longer and bet
ter.
After the lecture the moving
picture machine was started and
the folks saw just what relation
"dirt" is to disease. Then the
doctor and bis assistants made
tlie rounds of slaughter houses,
hotels, restaurants, barber shops,
dairies, stores, butcher shops and
DR. OSCAU DOWUXO, WHO
SCKCHUED THE STATE'S FACE
even home kitchens.
Colored housekepers were
frightened into cleaning up;
business men were clubbed Into
doiii}; Ilio same thing by the doc
tor* potent ultimatum: "CLEAN
UP OR SUIT UP!"
Finally he came to beard the
lion of "profitable uncleanliness"
in Xi>\v Orleans. Here big busi
ness Interests, politicians, law
yers, all the powers that made
New Orleans dirty, combined to
fight the doctor, but he took ad
vantage of the sanitation code,
and when they refused to clean
up he closed their doors with an
injunction key.
The whole state. New Orleans
included, i 8 now like the dirty
taced little boy who was scrubbed
—it feels belter and vows that It
will keep clean hereafter.

AT THE TACOMA
"Officer 666" is the busiest
policeman In the world—and the
funniest. The famous sleuth who
answers the roll call when these
numerals are pronounced, will be
here when Cohan and Harris pre
sent "Officer 666" at the Tacoma
theater, Friday evening. This
farce is, by long odds, the best
entertainment that has b«'n of
fered metropolitan audiences in
many seasons, a fact proved by its
run Of a year in New York and
six months in Chicago.
One of the authors of "A But
terfly On the Wheel," the play
which is based on the subject of
divorce, Is at present a member
of tho Uritißh parliament. He
was formerly an actor on the
American Btage. Then he went
to England and took up playwrlt

Butterfly On the Wheel" will be
the attraction at the Tacoma
Sunday and Monday.

You Should Have
Seen the Pimples
Hut Xow Her Face Is the Fairest
ol the Fair, Due to Htuart's
C'uic'luni Wafers.
Those dimples are like pearls'
in a ruby cluster when Stuart's
Calcium Wafers clear the face of
every pimple, spot and blemish.
And even if you haven't dimples,
ihe clear, transparent skin of a
In althy. Calcium Wafer complex
inn is more radiant than the d»-ft
toucb of an artist to the most ex
(luisile water color.
Stuart's Calcium Wafers act dl
rectly upon the iweat glands of
the skin, since their mission is to
■tlmulata tho excretory ducts.
They do not create perspiration,
hut cause tho skin to breathe out
vigorously, thus transforming
perspiration into ■ gaseous vapor.
The calcium sulphide of which,
these wafers are coin posed, con
sumes the germ poisons in the
sweat gland! and pores, hence
the blood makes a new, smooth
skin in a surprisingly short tlmo.
You will never be ashamed tc
look at yourself In a mirror, one(
you use Stuart's Calcium Wafers,
Nor will your friends give yoy
that hinting look, as much as to
say — for good&MI sake get rid of
thus.' pimples.
There is no longer any excuse
for anyone to have a face disfig
ured with skin eruptions, when It
is bo ensy to get rid of them.
Simply get a box of Stuart's Cal
cium Wafers at any drug store
and take them according to direc
tions. After a few days you will
hardly recognize yourpelf In the
mirror. The change will delight
you Immensely. All blemishes
will disappear.
All druggists (tell Stuart's Cal
cium Wafers at Mi cents a box.
