Pure Rich Blood
Pallor indicates weakness while a rosy color sig
nifies strength. The ruddy glow of health is but
the reflection of pure, rich blood showing through
the skin.
All of the face creams, lotions, etc., cannot give
you a clear, healthy complexion and soft, velvety
skin if your blood is impure or impoverished.

vigor to every organ of the body and with this new
vigor will come the surface signal of health in the

Great care must be exercised at this
time to safeguard our forests. There
have ibeen six fires in the last ten
days. At a fire on the head of Clover
Creek about 15 farmers in that dis
trict quit their work and loyally as
sisted Warden Williamson to ex
tinguish tho fire. This required three
days very hard hot work and the fire
was caused by the carelessness, of
eome one.
Campers are especially warned not
to build camp fires by a log or a
stump. Build your camp nr wnere it
can't spread and be sure and water it
out completely before you leave it.
Especially are people asked and
warned not to burn slashings or
stumps without a fire permit. A
smoke anywhere in the woods is seen
and reported by the Mt. Emily Look
out and the fire wardens are caused to
make long expensive trips and fre
quently find someone, burning stumps
or slashings. All possible care must
be taken to safeguard the forests of
the county, which is one of our great
est assets. -
