White- heads, as you likely know, are clogged | pores just the same as blackheads, only | being under the outer layer of skin they remain white, They are usually most numerous around the eyes, and if not removed Gry up into horny specks | greatly resembling warts. The correct way to treat these blemishes is to prick them open with a sterlized needle (be | sure it is sterlized), press out the white matter inside and then use an anti- septic wash. The following makss a good lotion to apply: Two ounces rose- water, 60 grains sulphate of sinc, ounce oil of sweet almonds. Mix well and massage into the skin untll it dries. Finish the treatment by applying a little toilet water to close the pores. However, since one doctor has diag- nosed your trouble as warts it might be wise for you to see another before trying any home remedies on these blemishes, It is often dangerous to tamper with a wart and if a thoroughly | reliable skin specialist calls them that. it would be best for you 1o leave the treatment to him.

LOIS LEEDS, attempted assassination of Secretary of | State Seward three nights ago have been arrested during the last 24 hours. Four men, dressed in female attire, | were arrested in Georgetown and are | confined today in the Old Capitol Prison Mere. Investigations by the civil and mili- tary authorities are still in progress, and the testimony of a large number of witnesses has already been taken. These investigations are proceeding quietly. | however, as it is deemed best for the ends of justice that no publicity should be given at present to the facts elicited. ‘The preparations for laying the body of President Lincoln in state were com- | pleted this evening. An opportunity | will be afforded the public tomorrow to | view the features of the dead President | for the last time. No one will be per- mitted to linger in the White House through curiosity tomorrow, but all per- sons will be required to pass out of the bullding as soon as they have viewed the body. The body of the President has been placed in a magnificent mahogany cof- | fin, lined with lead and covered with the finest black cloth. The exterior is festooned with massive silver tacks, | representing drapery, in each fold of which is & silver st All the other exterior decorations he coffin are in silver. Purther developments all serve to | confirm_reports that the plot to assas- sinate President Lincoln was planned some time ago, and that the conspira- | tors were only waiting a favorable op~ portunity to carry out their designs | The conduct of Booth for several days before he shot Mr. Lincoln was unusual, according to persons who saw him and who have since made statements to the authorities. In fact, it was recalled that on March 4 during the ceremonies for the second inauguration of Mr. Lin- coln, Booth was at the Capitol and seemed to be in a very nervous state. Some persons say they saw him on the north embankment, where the President must necessarily pass, and that he acted as if he did not wish to be noticed. Persons who now recall having seen him loitering around the National Hotel, the Kirkwood House and on Pennsyl- | vania avenue for several days prior to April 14 say he had a “gloomy” air.

It is absurd to-think that, be- | cause some expert tells you that card | | catalogues are the best means for keep- ing recipes, you should try to keep your recipes in this way, if you do not find it most convenient. There is often the difficulty, in using a card-index box for recipes, that the cards may be taken out for use and no | replaced.” If you find this true in your case, then give up this system and try | some other.

In this, new reci pes may be added anywhers you wish, but they are usually not taken out when used and hence do not become readily mislaid. Some housewives find the most help- ful system of all to be that of using a tandard cookbook and nothing else This should, of course, be one of the complete and comprehensive books of recent date. You will find almost every recipe you wish in such a book and you will usually find it convenient to jot down suggestions and additions on the margin of the book. Then at the end of each chapter you may find room to write down suggestions for other food combinations that may be worked out tn the aid of the recipes in the book. - As the result of the remarrying of 111,000 pensioned widows of army offi- cers, Britain’s pension payments have tween this and the card system is the | been reduced by $40.050.000. hardly tell what color it was in case you Giving me a ideer, and I sed, Well hay, I got a ideer, lets start o clean . and when the man eomes out and gees the diffrents he'll be so glad he'll give us a dime or something.

Many of those years it had been in storage. Helen said that she simply could not part from it. It would be like snubbing an old friend or discharging an old, faithful servant without cause. I Her sentiment may have been admir- | able in some respects, but we thought reflection on her part might make her see another side of it. . | What she paid for sentiment might go farther in charity. It might be the | means of bringing cheer into a home or two.

You can, if you will feed your plants with Loma, just as the florist does. In fact, until you have actually used Loma, you will find it hard to believe that anything could make such an astonish- ing difference. L Last season, for example, Mr. Werner Lieb of New Rochelle, N. Y., and Chair- man of the Awards Committee of the New York Florists’ Club, fed Ldma to a Coleus plant, leaving one on either side unfed. “At the end of the sixth week, after feed- ing,” says Mr. Lieb, “the Loma-fed plant was almost a yard wide—32 inches, to be exact. And the leaves of this plant were far richer in the depths of their greens and crimsons, and were far more vigorous than those of the unfed plants. I was amazed at the difference made by a single feeding!” at once. Apply it to your lawn, and you will have thicker, greener, sturdier grass in a week or ten days. Same way when you use it on plants and vegetables. The flowers come into heavier and earlier bloom, with healthy, husky stalks.

Results come quick—with L.oma Try Loma. If you like, just apply it to a small area of your lawn at first, or to just a few plants.
