By Easy Method Stnart’s Calchim Wafers Have Re- markable Action in the Skin to Cléear It of Pimples, Black- heads and Other Such Beauty Spoilers, With all the wonderfully pretty things to wear many a girl is dis- tracted because her complexion is a fright. But here’s the way to banish those pimples. Ask any druggist for a4 60 cént box of Stuart's Calcium ‘Waters and follow directions. Their first action is to remeve the sour fermentations that are apt to poison the blood and thus disfig- yre the skin. The effect is visibly noticeable to those troubled with a pimply skin or one that is muddy or red or blotchy, scaly and rough and coarse. The Calcium Wafers induce a reaction to healthier tendencies and soon the pinkish complexion be- gins to assert itself, the blemishes fade away, the dimples seem ani- mated and the entire appearance is one of vivacious beauty instead of unsightliness.

Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to kéep her locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women and men who value that even color, that beau- tiful dark shade of hair which is so attractive, use only this old-time reeipe. Nowadays we get this famous mix- ture Improved by the addition of other ingredients by asking at any drug store for a bottle of “Wyeth's and Sulphur .

You just dampen & sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morn- ing the gray hair disappears; but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sagé and Sulphur Compound is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, it alse brings back the gloes and lustre and gives ft an appearance of abundance, sage | which | oy -rw- additlons! puplis coming inte the Burees’ Lraining schoel Mrs. George Kimball, whe is the ehalrman of our aurses’ commiiies, reported that during the year The nurses themselves and farried ot Ihely enteriainment The funds ¢ vigg these o8 tertalaments were ralsed by & bLridge | party armnged by Mrs George Kim- ball and her commitice.

No annauncement of his intentions has been made, but it is knewn that | Mr, Ford recently called to Detroit the heads of four of the | inde- pendent oil companies, known to ha lurge surplus of gaseline on hand, None of these officials uld sdmit | yesterday that he had talked business with Mr, Ford, It is reported that the plan under consideration by Mr. Ford and the Ford Motor company officials would | be to purchase the excess supplies of |independent companies, probably | through a subsidlary to be erganized, and to ship this surplus to concentra- tion points, from which it would be doled out to Ford dealers to be retail- ed fro established agencies. That Mr, 1ford is looking at conditions un- | der which the fuel which operates au- tomoblles is sold was indicated when it became known that he was having three test oll wells drilled by A, J. Dalton of Huntington, W. Va, in the | Pond Creek, Plke county, Y., fleld. Is Not Ratisfied. It is known that Mr. Ford thinks he present system of distribution of gasoline to be Inefficient, and that there Is too great a spread between the cost of production and the cost of the fluld to the consumer, The Oil Trade Journal, in ity issue of yester- day, sald: “If Henry Ford makes the retalling of gasolind and motor oll a part of his Ford service In the United States we may expect to see profit margins in the marketing business consider- ably narrowed.” The Journal adds: “Once in the retail marketing busi- ness, it 1s hard to tell how far Mr, IFord would go if he devoted his in- genvity to working out more efficient and economical methods of handling gasoline and motor oil. It is quite certain that he would force all other marketers to meet his prices. This would cut deeply into the profits of the big Standard Oil marketing or- ganization, as well as the lafge and small independents.” Plan Called Logical Certain well informed men, who watch Ford movements closely, un- derstand the flivver maker is nego- [tiating for ofl properties, planning to produce crude oil in huge quantities, refine it into gasoline and sell to Ford car drivers only at 16 cents a gallon. The plan, Wall street financlers point out, is logical and economically sound, According to current financial dis- trict information gasoline now retail- ing in New York district at 22 cents a gallon is manufactured at around 10 cents. Assuming this to be true, Henry Ford, with his own oll “wells, could sell gasoline for 16 cents at a substantial profit. To Only Ford Owners Announcement of 16-cent gasoline to Ford owners exclusively would create unprecedented demands for Ford cars. Ford gas stations would take away much of the trade of sta- tions now operating at a profit. Crude ofl and refined oil prices, Wall street thinks, would necessarily tumble to meet Ford prices. This would bring a price cutting war and f [reduction of prices all along the line. T'he entire industry would have to be reorganized to meet the new condition and independent ofl companies in that cvent might join with Standard Oil to fight the invader, GOULD LO:!
