-------------------------- -------- - ATTAGK MADE ON COSMETIC CRAZE Dermatologist Says Millions Are Spent Each Year to Ruin Skins Columbus, O., April 25.--In their unguided seareh far youth and school girl complexions, Ameri- ean women today are spending more than $120,000,000 anpually for the privilege 'of ruining their skins, according to Dr. L. K. Me- Cafferty, New York dermatologist In an address to the Columbus Academy of Medicine, Mr. MeCaf- ferty said the "'cosmetic craze" Is @ grave problem. Good soap and water are the only worth while external aids to beauty, he said, but the average woman is deeply offended when ad- vised to use it. Many stubborn skin diseases, he mS -- C-- said, are caused by the application of powders, rouge and dyes com- taining orris root and analine dyes. Experience is Cited It has been his experienge, he declared, that more facial erup- tions are caused by eye brow pen- cils than by poor digestions. it is not only women, however, whe ruin their appearance with cosmetics, according to the skin specialist. Bald headed men, who go through a daily ritual with a bot- tle of hair restorer, not only insure themselves of being permanently hairless in many cases, but bring on premature wrinkles and facial blotches, he declared. One difficulty in treating a wo- man with a skin disorder, he said, is to persuade her to confess she has been using cosmetics. When confronted with proof, he declar- ed, they insist their colored cheeks and lips are naturally so. Enlarged pores are practically incurable, he said; and are only aggravated by use of astringents. A genuine case of eczema is rare, according to Dr. McCafferty, des- pite the number of skin eruptions labeled with the mame. Psoriasis, he said, is the only skin disease comsidered incurable. The need of diagnosis and de- sirability of regional anaesthetics were stressed by Dr. Oswald I. Lowsly, also of New York, in dis- cussing urologic surgery. He denied cancer in humans can be cured and warmed against too much faith in promises of enthusi- astic cancer workers. He sald, however, that cancer can be transplanted and cured in plants and predicted that the same will be true of humans. Stones: in the kidneys or blad- der must be crushed or removed by surgery, he said, warning that attempts to dissolve them may re- sult in injury to the body tissue.

BRONX BANDITS HOLD UP GROCER In Excitement Robbed Mer- chant's Wife Falls Out of Window New York, April 25.--Peace and quiet in the neighborhood of Brook avenue and 134tn street, the Bronx, was upset when two young bandits held up a grocer in his stare and caused the grocer's wife to fall from a window as she at- tempted to call for the police. The bandits escaped with about $185 and the grocer's wife suffered a gash on the head. Entering the store of Joseph Kirchbauer, the two bandits order- ed the grocer and Samuel Loch- linstein, a milk driver, to hold up their hands. The two were then led to a rear room in the Kirch- bauer apartment. There, to the surprise of Mrs. Kirchbauer, who was in the room, they were search- ed; $160 being taken from the milk driver and thirty cents from the grocer, : The two men were then barri- caded in a closet, and warning Mrs. Kirchbauer to remain quiet, the bandits dashed out of the store and escaped in an automo- bile. As they reached the street, Mrs. Kirchbauer released her husband and the milk driver and ran to the window overlooking an areaway to call the police. In her excitement she leaned too far out of the win- Jdow and losing her balance fell to tha ground. The two men car- ried her back to the apartment and a doctor was called. STEWART TALKS ON CANADIAN MINES Says Development Has Made Amazing Strides in U.S. Speech Washington, April 25.--Mining development in Canada, has made amazing strides in the last few years, declared Hon. Charles Stew- art, Minister of the Interior, in ad- dressing the National Press Club at luncheon here. Mr. Stewart was the guest of honor at the club with, Hon. vin-} cent Massey, Canadian Minister to the United States. Formal welcome on behalf of the United States was made by Hon, W, N, Jardine, Sec- retary of Agriculture, Americans had $500,000,000 in- vested ifn Canadian mines, the Min- ister sald and Canada hoped they would invest as much more in the near future. He sald research led to the bhellef that the Laurentian yield was not confined to central Canada, but probably extended from the Atlantic to the Pacitie Oceans, Mr. Stewart said he believed that extension of the railway to the Hudson Bay in Western Can- ada would open up another new mining field hitherto unexplored. Surveys during the past winter gave reason to hope that the Hud- son Bay route through Fort Churchill would not be closed to navigation more than four months of the year, and Canadians conse- quently had a growing faith in the Hudson Bay Railway as a prac- tical outlet to the sea for products of Western Canada, CANADA STEAMSHIPS LAUNCH NEW VESSEL Quebec, April 25.--The new S.8.
