Health and Beauty Hints
_By MRS. MAE MARTYN
' Maude S.. A ?'made" complexion
in vor'looks real; and if you continue
isllig cosmetics the skin will grow
!?'?>-- and unsightly. Try spurmax lo
? , und I'm sure you will be delighted
With rtiiulti. ritir two teaspoonf ul.s
ffly. ? rir.e in one-half pint hot water,
then add lour ounces spurmax. When
? apply sparingly to face, neck and
ni un'l rub lightly until it dries
The spurmax lotion Is soothing and
l?? .lir,g. cleanses the- skin of all Im?
purities; and banishes the oily, sallow
Use this lotion and you will have
complexion rivaling any mode by ar?
tificial means
Mrs. Gco.. It Is dangerous to disre?
gard the laws of nature, and unless
yon employ a systcm-tonlc you may
' u tv:n of sickness, I would sug
gust .'nuking up the following old-time
Ulood cleanser and taking a table
uoi ..ful three times daily: In a half
plnt alcohol dissolve one-half cupful
> Igor, then add one ounce kardene and
li ii water lo make a quart. This tonic
?will expel Impurities from the body,
impair waste tissues and restore lost
appetite us well as give you renewed
strength and vigor.
M. O.: The. only quick and sure way
I ?move fuzz from the cheek is to
apply a dc-latone paste. t,ct It remain
two or three minutes, then rub off.
v ? the Skin and t'ho hairs are gone.
Only In rare Instances is it necessary
to use the second application. Dela
,-ostb a dollar for an original
ounce package, but It Is worth it to
Hi the skin of superfluous hair.
Mrs. O.: Glasses at your age. I pre
lime, are quite necessary. However,
if you will got an ounce of crystos and
lissolve It In a pint Of cold water and
two or three drops in each eye
'cry day, you can overcome the sore
md redness. Keep up this simple
treatment, und before long your eyes
rill take on a youth.Vtl sparkle and
brilliancy, and you will no longer be
troubled with weak eyes.
Hope: Oon't wreck your nervous
stem by dieting, because by taking
ordinary parnotis. found in all drug
? lores, you can reduce your weight to
(where you want 11 and not suffer any
inconvenience or 111 after-effects. Four
ounces purnotls .shoulj be dissolved in
h pint anil a hall hot water, and when
It cools, take a tablespoonful bofore
each meal. Thlr nnrnoti* treatment
yon will find reduces weight rapidly
without leaving the skin flabby or
wrinkled or marring the form's sym?
metrica] 71'nes.
Miss X.: No. canthrox will not in?
jure the most sensitive scalp. It con?
tain- no "free"! alkali, and makes a
white, thick lather that soothes and
heals a tender scalp. Rinsing removes
every bit of dust, dandruff and excess
oil. and promotes a healthy condition.
After a canthrox shampoo the hair
dries quickly| evenly, and is soft and
glossy. Any druggist can supply cun
throx in an original package, and a
teaspoonful dissolved In hot water Is
ample for a first-class shampoo.
Rose B.: (1) I never advise .is.ng
powders or cosmetics, because of their
tendency to clog the skin's pores and
cause roughness; of the skin, pimples,
blackheads and other complexion up
sets, (2) Von will lind a plain almo
zoln cream-jelly splendid for reducing
large pores and cleansing the skin of
impurities a? well as imparting a de?
lightful softness and freshness to any
complexion. To mike tills greasolcsa
cream-Jelly, stir two teaspoonfuls gly?
cerine !n one-half pint cold water, then
add one ounce ulmozoln. Lei stund
several hours before using, then apply
generously and massage In well. No
matter how unlovely the complexion
may be. this slrr.ple almozoin crrnm
Jellv will make It radiantly beautiful.
Anxious. Baldness among women Is
nothing short of a calamity, and really
suggests carelessness or Indifference In
care of the hair. You can restore the
natural color and sllklness to your
hair and make it grow thick and beau?
tiful, if yejl make and use this simple
tonic: Into o half-pint alcohol pour
a half-pint water, then add one ounce
quinzoln. I"re<|uent massaging a lit?
tle of this at a tlmo Into the scalp
overcomes dandruff and Itchtnoss, and
so Invigorates the h.ilr-folllcles that
an abundance of fine glossy hair re?
sults.

impllcatcd by revenue othcers. Thlc
grown daughter often nad pleaded

but he persisted. At the time of the
lair he was running a still, und the
daughter was In constant dread of
the trouble and disgrace that would 1
come If the head of the family were
haled Into court and possibly sent to
prison. She- encouraged a plan fori
the entire family to go to Carthage
for the county fair, and then at tho
last minute Insisted that there were

when he returned that It was the work
of revenue ofttcers, and he Is even
