TODAY'S BEAUTY AIDS To clear up and whiten the skin and secure that charm of pink and white youthful freshness so much desired by all women you will find it far safer to rely upon a good face lotion rather than powder. To get rid of that shiny and muddy appearance in your com plexion, dissolve four ounces of spur- mai in one-half pint hot water, and add two teaspoonfuls glycerin. Apply this to your face, neck and arms, rub- lng gently until dry. This lotion does not show or rub off like powder and is much better. It is splendid for re moving tan, freckles, pimples and sa4 lowness. ' You can make a delightful shampoo for a very trifling cost if you get from your .druggist a package of canthrox and dissolve a teaspoonful in a cup of hot water. Pour a little at a time on the scalp and rub briskly. This creates an abundance of thick, white lather that thoroughly dissolves and removes all dandruff, excess oil and dirt. After rinsing, the. hair dries quickly, with a fiuffiness that makes it seem heavier than it is, and takes on a rich luster and a softness that makes arranging It pleasure. Adv. Allen's Foot-Ease for the Troops. Over 100,000 packages of Allen's Foot Ease, the antiseptic powder to Shake into your Shoes or dissolve in the foot bath, are being used by the German and Allied troops at the front. It rests the feet, prevents friction of the shoe and makes walking easy. Sold every where, 25c. Sample sent FREE. . Ad dress, Allen S. Olmsted, Le Roy. N. V. MS TTAVANA!
