Health and Beauty Answers
BY MRS. MAE MARTYN
Violet: By all means let face powder
alone. If you want a beautiful com- I
plexion. Powder clogs up the skin I
pore?, causing enlarged pores, wrinkles
and rough, discolored complexions. The I
only safe and satisfactory complexion 1
beautifler I know of is ntade by dis- I
solving four ounces of spurmax In a
half pint h->t water, then adding two
teaspoonfuli glycerine. This lotion j
will take away that shiny, sallow.)
greasy look and make your skin J
smooth, soft and velvety. It does not I
rub off so easily as powder does, and
gives that much-desired, delicate, re?
fined tone to the skin without an arti?
ficial, powdered look.
A R. r : Stop worrying over such a
trivial thing and get an ounce of dela
ton". Mix enough with water to cover
their hairs not wanted, and after two
or three minutes rub off. then wash lh?
skin- You Will find delatone the most
satisfactory thing to use for removing
superfluous hairs; and even if it does
cost a dollar an ounce, it Is worth sev
er.il times Its price to have a smooth,
hairless skin.
Rena: Your sallow, muddy, pimply
complexion is due to Impurities in the
blood. To rid your system of these
marks of 111 health, you can find noth?
ing better than this old-fashioned.
v.ome-made tonic: Dissolve a half cup
Fiisar and one ounce kardene in ;t half
pint alcohol, then add hot water to
make a full quart. Take ,1 tablespoon
fnl before each meal, and you will be
surprised at the. wonderful h?alth-re
atoring qualities of this tonic. It will
give, you energy, a good appetite and
bring back the glow of perfect health
to your cheeks.
Ellen: For your weak, tired, dull
eyes, you need a good strengthening
tonic. If you will get from your drug?
gist an ounce of cryst03 and dissolve
1t. In a pint of water, then put n few
drops In each eye once or twice a day,
your eves will soon be clear of all In?
flammation, feel strong, and be bright
and sparkling This tonic is splendid
for granulated eyelids and will be
found very soothing. The use of this
?Imple tonic, has enabled many to di?
pense with wearing glasses.
J. S.: You are only one of the mil?
lions who have wasted manv dollars
on nicely perfumed hair tonics which
did no good except to enrich the man
ufacturer. For your damdruff-laden.
itchy scalp, and thin, falling hair, get
n half pint alcohol and one ounce of
quinzoln at any drug store; mix these
together, then add a half pint cold
water. Two applications of this tonic
a week to the scalp will d,o more good
than all the "sure-cure remedies" on
the market It will put your hair and
scalp in a healthy condition and you
will then he praising this simple, inex?
pensive tonic to your friends.
Marjorle: To reduce your weight
rjuickly and at small cost, without re?
sorting to a restricted diet and fatiguing
exercise, dissolve four ounces of"~f>ar- '
notis in a pint and a half of hot water .
and take a tablespoonful before each ^
meal I find this simple, harmless;
remedy generally takes off fat rapidly,
and those who have tried lt tell me lt j
is a marvelous fat-reducer, as it leaves |
the skin smooth and unwrinkled. You;
can get parnotls at any drug store.
Nora: To have beautiful hair and aj
healthy scalp, you must keep your i
scalp clean. All the hair-tonics under
the sun will not keep your hair and |
scalp In a healthy condition unless you j
shampoo frequently and thoroughly. |
When washing your hair, never use i
soap in any form, as the aikall In It !
streaks and dulls the hair, causing it i
to split and become brittle. No sham- ]
poo preparation I have ever seen gives i
the hnlr such a clean, fluffy and healthy j
appearance as a teaspoonfttl of con- |
throx dissolved In a cup of hot water.
This makes the finest shampoo Imag- ?
inable. and is inexpensive. It removes
all dirt and dandruff. rln?es. easily,
dries quickly, and adds a beautiful
lustre to the hair that you can't fret
with anv other shampoo. I consider
It the only perfect shampoo.
P. T. W.: You can get rid of those

AMELIE RIVES
now the Princess Troubetzkoy. has written a new novel for Lippincott's Maga
zine which bids fair to overtop the reputation of her first great work, "The
Quick or the Dead." As in her first story, the scene is laid in Virginia, her
beloved Southland. The plot is one of the most remarkable and absorbing that
has ever appeared between covers.
Don't delay in getting the October number of Lippincott's. in which Amelie
Rives' great story appears. The number containing "The Quick or the Dead"
was sold out in a flash. There will be an even bigger demand for her new story.
Don't miss the October number of Lippincott's.

Second Week of Practice.
The squad entered to-day Upon 11?
second week of practice with great
earnestness. A scarcity of assistant
coaches on Lambeth field has caused
an extra burden to be placed on thu
shoulders of Coach Yancey, who. with
only "Speed" Elliott, Captain Bowen
and Trainer Lannlgan to help, and
with sixty men to manage, id thought
to be considerably handicapped. tit
forts are now being made to Induce
alumni who were prominent un ths

in the work.
"Billy" Gloth, who was around Xoi
several days soon after college opened,
is expected to return shortly. As he is
not booked to coach this Xall. he Is
expected to give considerable aid to
Yancey In the work of developing ma?

Besides Geyer, several other mem?
bers of the 1910 varsity will coach at
other institutions this year. "Jimmy"
