Through a fortunate meeting with an English lady, noted for her dazzling complexion, I recently learned the full meaning of that, old adage, "Beauty is but skin deep." She taught me how to remove my muddy, old skin, reveal ing the young find beautiful skin under nenth. The process is so simple, harm less and inexpensive, I'm sure you'll be glad to know about it. Just get an ounce of ordinary mercolized wax at any drugstore and apply nightly, like cold cream, for a week or so. Every morning in wanking off the wax, tiny particles of worn-out cuticule como off, too. The action is so gentle and grad ual, there's no discomfort. It's a won derful treatment, as it not only peels off the faded or discolored skin, but all of its defects, as chaps, roughness, freckles, pimples, blotches, blackheads. I am indebted to the same lady for a remarkable wrinklo-removin-g formula. One ounce powdered saxolite is dis solved in a half pint witch hazel, t'sod as a face bath, this is so effective that just one application causes the finer lines to disappear, and soon even the deeper ones go. CHURCHILL ENTHUSIASTIC OVER CHILDREN'S CONGBESS Superintendent of Public Instruction Churchill announced yesterday that he wim urging a boys' and girls' indus trial congress as one of the features of the Panama-Pacific exposition. Mr. Churchill has arranged to send ten winners of prizes in the children's in dustrial department of the state fair to the exposition, and he, will urge other states which have industrial clubs to do likewise, the winners from the various states to be delegates' to the congress. Mr. Churchill thinks the plan would be of benefit in stimulating Interest in the work. 'Such a congress," said Mr, Churchill, "would furnish each mem ber an opportunity for an exchange of Ideas and a wider acquaintance with the industrial work.' SENATOR BACON IMPROVING.

OMITED PRESS LEASED WIRE. Los Angeles, Cal., Feb. 13. Jimm;' Clabby, Indiana middleweight, defeated Sailor Ed. Petroskey yesterday after noon in 20 rounds of fighting at Ver non arena. It was Clabby 's second vic tory over the ex-bluejacket, and he went into the ring a big favorite, but bis chances were no more than even by the time the 12th round was reached. He could not stop the Bailor, and stand off and box as he desired, and Petroskey, landing an occasional smash or swing, badly damaged Clabby 's month and eyes. Clabby regained the lead after the 12th, and seemed to have the sailor a trifle distressed in the 20th. Both men fought viciously, and fre quently lost adl thought of science or defense to clinch snd whang away at each other. Clabby at the beginning re moved his front teeth, to Bave a golden dental bridge from damage, and went into battle with his lower lip close up under his nose. Petroskey bore a few of the scarB of battle out of the ring, but the decision went against him purely on points scored by his cleverer opponent. Small Crowd Drawn. v Even tho lure of a perfect California winter day failed to draw a fair crowd Tho higher priced scats were well fillod but the gallery birds' attendance was slim. Only the shady side of the bleach crs was filled. A hot Bun blistered tho canvas in the arena and coats were, doffed generally throughout the house. Stove Dalton and Ben Hart, light weights, were tho first preliminary boys to appear. Hart was a joke and went out early in tho second round from right to tho jaw. Jimmy Lastro then took a four round decision from Fighting Lee. They are bantams. Harry Atwood and Babe Sherman featherweights, then tried to cntortuin the crowd. Betting Quickly Lengthens, (Hubby's admirers offered to ba their judgment to such an extent that the' betting at ringsido quickly length enod to 10 to 4. A fan Francisco dolO' gntion snapped up practically all that was offered at that figure. It was announced before the fight that Promoter McCarey would give Clabby, if ho won, a belt emblematic of the world's middleweight championship, condition being attached that the holder must defend it against all corn ers at 148 pounds ringside. If Petroskey wins, said McCarey, the belt will be withheld, said McCarey holding that the sailor is not a real middleweight, and thorcforo cannot hold tho title.

CRITICISES THE CRITICS, Editor Capital Journal: In the "Daily Oregon Journal" of January 23, there appeared an editorial, in which it was stated that the estimated cost of present Oregon roads was twenty-four thousand dollars per mile. I wonder where such editor secured hig information, and if such statistical estimates can be secured by the general public f Any person who would make such an estimate is a, fit subject for Attno liinntiA oavlllm. nf "ftnart" either a lunatic asylum or "onery membership in an Ananias club; and, any editor, who would considor such an absurd estimate worthy of favorable editorial mention, belongs to the Bame class. , Oregon seems to be afflicted with a bunch of disgruntled, road-knockers, miscalled road-boosters, who apparently aro Ignoramuses, individually endowed with some mental vacuum that develops periodical brain storm fits, during the rainy season, makiug them mentally Incapable of grasping any roal concep tion of past road conditions, circum stances, expenditures, efforts and re sults; or they are unprincipled mon, endeavoring to carry out their selfish aims and policies through docoptlon, misrepresentation and hypocritical ills honorablonoss. For illustration, lot us analyze the estimate tat the roads of Oregon cost twenyt-four thousand dollars per mile. According to estimates socured from tho office of State Highway Engineer Bowlby, there are about thirty-six thousand miles of roads in Oregon, Taking the sum of twenty-four thousand dollars and multiplying it by thirty-six thousand, tho result Is the Btnpendooui sum of eight hundred and sixty-four million dollars. The principal of such a sum would provide a fund of twenty one million six hundred thousand dol lars, annually for forty yoarB; or it would provido a fund of two million five hundred thousand dollars annually which is thij approximate amount ex pended upon Oregon roads during the year 1010, for ovor three hundred and forty five years. I wonder if the edi tor of the "Oregon Journal" Intonded to convoy any such Idens or did ho presume that his readers were Buch numbskulls, that they would accopt such Aiiaunis dope, through dull, ig norant, blind-faith t In tho "Sunday Oregonian" of Jan uary 25, thoro appeared a spociul report of a road meeting held nt Independence, to consider bonds In Polk county for road improvement, and in such rcprt Thomas McCusker is quoted as follows: "It is estimated, that tho roads of Oregon cost twenty-four thousand dol- With Oar New Equipment Marlie lars per mile. Eighteen million dollars has been spent npon Oregon roads, and of this amount seventeen million dol lars has been wasted." A more absurd misstatement of act ual past affairs and results could hard ly be made. For proof let us analyze these figures. Taking eighteen million dollars as the total estimated expendi ture, and dividing it by twenty-four thousand, the estimated cost per mile, we secure the sum of seven hundred and fifty, to represent the total road mileage of the state. Did Mr, McCusker nrpRiiniA that. thA nnnnlA at TndanAnri- ence pok co such numb. I . skulls, that they could not analyze such figures, or were mentally too in dolent to do sot Without donying that Oregon needs better roads, and refraining from pub licly taking sidos In regard to issuing road bonds, I sny most emphatically, that our state has more pressing need, of a better type of citizenship, that does not stoop to deception, misrepre sentation snd hypocritical dishonorable- nesB, In ordor to promote, develop and carry to completion, private or public aims and policies. Paved roads are not worth the price of pursuing such a course of unprin cipled manhood; and men of such char acter or typo, should be publicly re buked, evon though it should prove necessary to travel over mud roads for generations to come, in order to ef fectively administer such a rebuke. All good citizens should stand ever roady to denounce unprincipled men, who Intentionally distrot public facts, conditions, expenditures and results, in an effort to docoive and mislead the general public, regardloss of their politi cal faith, or thoir support or opposition to any public policy; for it is only through 'higher character development that our civilization can advance, a no wheuover tho time comes that commer cialized thought, continuously predomin ates in the minds of the masses, over higher character thought, then our civ ilization will bo doomed to follow that of Home and Orceco. The value of roads Is not comparable to that of char acter. GKOKGE C. M1TTY. THREE OF QUINTUPLETS LIVE IN KENTUCKY UNITED PHESS LEASED WII1B. Taylorville Ky., Fob. 13.
