To remove hair, make a stiff paste with a little pow- dered delatone and water. Spread this on the hairy surface and in about 2 minutes rub off, wash the skin and the hairs are gone.

FRONTIER LIFE IS FULL OF HARDSHIPS Oliver Beckwith Writes of Poor Food and Excessive Heat. A letter received from Oliver Beck- vith, one of the East Lyme boys who is serving in Co.

He says: We are located [ and one-half miles from the - and my company gets its_turn duty every ten days. We all ht time as where we e river there is a pumping station which tne Mexicans ave tried to put out of commission and three have been killed trying to swim the river carrying aynamite for this purpo: lso the bushes are full of snipers. It is very lonely at night and the food is poor and very ligtle of it. This morning all 2ot was one spoonful half-cooked rice and the coffee tasted like burning rags. This noon at mess all we got was burnt beans and a very few of them, with hard tack, not the kind you bu. t the store, but more like dog biscuit. xt week, Company @, my company, will g0 on a scouting trip to the north to search a Mexican town for rifles and weapons of any kind. The heat here is intense, 118 to 125 in the shade of the tent, and the rain here is fierce; our tents get flooded. Then it is a case of taking a wash basin and bailing out the water and mud. Tt makes us wish for home sweet heme. The march we have next week us desert where we to carry our own water.

The best thing to use is just plain mulsified_cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or anything else all to pieces. You can gét this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich. creamy lather, cleanses thoroughl and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and even ly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Be- sides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dandruff. —_— for commission, National Guard. detailed the in tne Connecticut The general has following officers__ for this duty: Lieutenant-Colonel Sher- man Miles, Major John S.
