Nothing else takes out sore- ness, lameness and stiffness so quickly. You simply rub it on your back and out comes the pain. It is harmless and doesn't burn the skin. Limber up! Don't suffer!

Those who have tried a simple spurmax face lotion find it much better, as it removes skin discolorations, such as freckles and tan, and makes the skin smooth, white and velvety, This lotion is made by dissolving four ounces of spurmax in one-half pint hot water, then adding two teaspoonfuls gly- cerin. This complexion beautifier does not rub off or show like powder, and gives a more refined appearance. It removes both shininess and sallow- ness, rapidly giving the skin a per- manent healthy, youthful appear- .ncAel; espaclally fine shampoo for this weather can be had at trifling ex- pense by dissolving a teaspoonful of santhrox in a cup of hot water. Pour slowly on scalp and massage briskly. ) | This creates a soothing, cooling lath- who furnished the evidence was| Foley | BY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION MADISON, Neb., Nov. 15—(Special.)— Dr. E.

Faceon It Many a man jauntily takes his cup or two of coffee at a meal and declares that coffee doesn’t hurt him! But wait until the poisonous drug, caffeine, in the coffee begins to show its cumulative effects, and puts a different face | on the proposition, It's a fact anyone can verify, that caffeine hardens the ar- teries, brings on premature old age, and sallows and wrinkles the skin Some of the signs are headache, irritability, billous- ness, heart flutter, sleeplessness, dizziness, “‘fag,” and so on. The way out is to quit coffee, and for a pleasant, healthfu] beverage use INSTANT POSTUM —the pure food.drink. | This delightful beverage is made from finest wheat, roasted with a bit of wholesome molasses.

How Russia Censors The Literary Diges There is a striking example of the methods of the Russian press censorship shown in THE LITERARY: DIGEST for November 13th. The article is illustrated by ‘‘before’’ and ‘‘after’’ pic- tures and the American reader is enabled to judge for himself how the great Russian Empire of 175,000,000 people is protected from the ‘‘Digest’s’’ fell influence. It also gives examples of some of the whims of the British press censorship. The article is not, by any means, the most interest- ing feature in this number of THE LITERARY DIGEST—for there are also these: " BOTH SIDES ENCOURAGED BY THE SUFFRAGE DEFEAT Showing the Consolation That the Suffragists and Anti-Suffragists Take Out of the Election Results Machine Victories in New York and A Ohallenge to Our Ship-Registry Philadelphia The Aliens’ Right to Work California Clings to Her Political Parties The Chances of Early Peace Victory Is Glimpsed by the German Press The Freedom of the Seas German-American Views on the Cavell Case Personal Armor Coming in Again The Shower-Bath Method of Painting Furniture Mouths in the Bark of Trees Fake War Movies French Praise of German Fairness A Rap for the Inventions Board How Bombs Have Wrecked Venetian Art The War and Non-Christian Peoples Prussianizing America Putting Out the Red Lights The Panama Religious Congress MAPS, PHOTOS, CARTOONS Week by week this famous American news-magazine is presenting the best chronicle of the war. A digest of all the real news from all sides as printed in the world’s press, is given without any attempt to discolor or show partizan bias. The selection of Maps, Photographs, and Cartoons with which each number of the ‘‘Digest” is illustrated, is a feature that has won great popularity. While the above-named partial list of the articles in the issue of November 13th gives an idea of the general character of this particular number, it should be remembered that all the striking news in the fields of Secience, Polities, Invention, Sport, Art, Literature, Religion, Education, Industry, Music, and the Drama is presented each week. 3 Because of its educational and human interest value THE LITERARY DIGEST is today being used very widely in the teaching of current events and eurrent history in the High Schools through- out the country.
