The contpast between . the freckles and the ar skin usually is so great that no bleach can be more than par- tinlly successful in obliterating the disfigurements. Ordinary mereolized wax is far better; it literally peels off the freckles. Get an 'ounce of it at the nemrest drugstore and to-night spread on enough to completely cover your face; remove in the morning with warm water. Repeat daily until every freckle has disappeared. Rough, blotehy, pimipled skin, also common at this season, may be entirely gotten .nid of hy this same method, without discomfort or inconvenience The effort is decidedly worth while, the new: domplexion obtained being so clear, smooth and youthful. If bothered with wrinkles, bathe the face in a lotion made by dissolving an ounce of powdered saxolite in a half pint of witch hazel. This is the most effective and quickest-acting wrinkle treatment known.

NELSON'S SURPRISE, Once upon a time several of boys stopped on their way home from school to play marbles, They dug two or three holes in the side- walk and had been playing only a few minutes when they heard some- one say: "Boys, don't play here. You are spoiling the sidewalk and I don't like to have holes made in it." When they looked up there was Mr. Nelson the owner of the house standing beside them, "We can't play marbles unless we do dig holes, said one of the boys, but still Mr. Nelson said they must stop so they put their marbles in their pockets and went down thé street, thinking all sorts of mean things about Mr. Nelson. A day or so after this Mr. Nelson called to some of the boys when they were passing and asked them to all stop at his house on the way home from school a8 he wanted to talk to them. They promised to do so but talked among themselves that prob- ably he was only going to lecture them again for making the holes in his sidewalk. the That night, after school, 'the boys went to' the Nelson house and rang the bell. Mr. Nelson was waiting for them and invited them all into the dining room where he had a big pitcher of lemonade and a lot of wonderful cake for them to eg made the boys feel a little asha Then Mr. Nelson said: "Boys, 1! stopped your playing marbles on my sidewalk because } was afraid some- | one might step in one of the holes! and hurt themselves and I weuld be responsible. That is why I asked you not to make the holes. Now come with me out into the yard and I will show you where you ean play | marbles all you want to." { The boys followed him out to the! vard and there, in one corner, were several holes all made and fixed up £0 nice that it made the boys, as one expressed it, 'feel like playing all the time." { The boys looked at each other and | i then off came their hats and they gave a lusty cheer for Mr. Nelson | who had proved to be their friend | when they thought he was simply a Cross man. | "Low Cost of Living" Menu Menu for Thursday BREAKFAST Bapanax and Cream Broiled Tripe Por oe Chips Huckwheat Griddles Coffee LUNCHEON Egg Salad, Bolled Dressing Bread and Butter Apple Sauce Cocon DINNER Pen Soup Broiled Steak Potatoes nnd Theene Huttered Beets Lima Bean Ssuiad Orange Shorteake \-- BREAKFAST Ruckwheat Griddles -- cups of buckwheat flout cups each of milk, two teaspoons each of sugar and baking powder, Bake in small cakes on a well greas- ed griddle.
