Pimply Pretty
Faces
May Bo Made Clean and Clear By
Using Stuart's' Calcium Wafers
Trial Package Sent Free
Pretty faces are dally seen about
us marred and marked -with pimples,
blotches and eruptions.
There is absolutely no necessity
for this condition being so exceed
ingly prevalent. Pimples and skin
troubles show that the blood is im
pure, and is forcing its impurities
into the cells and glands of the skin
there festering and breaking out at
last into many eruptive disorders.
Don't Mar Your Beauty by Neglect.
Stuart's Calcium Wafers Sent
. Free for Trial.
Calcium Sulphide is one of the
greatest blood purifiers known to
science, and is so powerful that In a
few days dreadful conditions of skin
disease are overcome, and pimples
and ordinary skin troubles have been
removed in a few days.
Stuart's Calcium Wafers contain
this great purifier and preserve its
fullest strength in the peculiar pro
cess called Stuart's. Combined with
the Calcium Sulphide are three other
great blood, inyigorators, each doing
a special WQrjk intended for rapid
and complete nastery over blood im
purities and skA diseases.
By using Stuart's Calcium Wafers
in a few days one notices the good
effects, and in a short time the blood
responds quickly and purges itself of
its irritating and impure parts.
These wafers are not experimental,
they do their great work so fast and
are .so uniformly successful that they
are known in every hamlet and by
every druggist. Physicians will tell
you of Calcium Sulphide, and how
hard it is to prepare it to hold its
full strength. Stuart has solved the
question with Stuart's Calcium Waf
ers. They sell at all druggists for
$50c, or send us your name and ad
dress and we will send you a trial
package by mail free. Address F.

Congress met in special session
March 16. The tariff will be the
special subject under consideration,
although Representative Crumpacker
of Indiana says he will re-introduce
the census bill which Mr. Roosevelt
vetoed.
Oyster Bay dispatches say that
Mrs. Roosevelt and children with the

A Boston dispatch carried by the
Associated Press says: "In connec
tion with a movement to establish an
old age pension system, former
United States Senator C. W. Hinds
of Mississippi was in this city. Mr.
Hinds has embodied his views in a
bill which, together with a strong
petition bearing the names of citi
zens in all parts of the country, he
proposes to present to the coming
extra session of congress. The bill
provides for the creation of an 'old
age inquiry pension commission,' to
be composed of five persons to be ap
pointed by the. president of the
United States, with the advice and
consent of the senate. This commis
sion would be instructed to make a
comprehensive investigation of the
condition of all persons over the age
of sixty years in the United States
and report to congress."

Congress met in special session
March 15. In spite of the fact that
a number of republicans rebelled
against the re-adoption of the Can
non rules, Joseph G. Cannon was re
elected speaker. As soon as Speaker
Cannon took the chair Dalzell (rep.)
of Pennsylvania moved to adopt the
old rules. The democrats, under the
leadership of Champ Clark and sup
ported by a number of insurgent re
publicans, voted against Dalzell's
motion and it was defeated amid
great cheering by democrats and
their allies. After a heated debate
Fitzgerald of New York proposed
what he called an amendment to the
old rule. Practically the Fitzgerald
amendment provides no relief from
"Cannonism." Fitzgerald and sev
eral other democrats, together with
several insurgent republicans, voted
with Cannon republicans for the
Fitzgerald amendment and it pre
vailed. Champ Clark's proposition
to have the house itself appoint a
committee of fifteen on rules was
defeated. So in spite of all that has
been said Cannon and "Cannonism"
prevails.
I
TRADE IN YOUR
INFERIOR SEPARATORS
15,000 American users of poor or worn-out separators
traded them in last year on account of now
DE LAVAL CREAM SEPARATORS
and there are doubtless many more owners of such ma
chines who will bo glad to know that whilo such old ma
chines have no actual value the DE LAVAL Company con
tinues to make liberal "trade" allowances for them becauso
of the opportunity such exchanges afford for the most prac
tical illustration possible of the difference between good
and poor separators and putting a stop to the sale of others
like them in the same neighborhood. Nobody is injured
through the re-sale of these old machines as they are simply
broken-up and "scrapped" for their old metal value.
Then there are many thousands ol DE LAVAL users who
should know that they may exchange their out-of-date ma
chines of from 10 to 25 years ago for the much improved,
closer skimming, easier running and larger capacity ma
chines of today.
Write in a description of your old machine name, size
and serial number or seo your DE LAVAL agent.

Two Men Make $10,000 Net in One
Year From Onions
Two men came to Mission a year ago with two teams and a
few hundred dollars in money, rented 43 acres of-irrigated land,
paying therefor $20 per acre rent, and planted Bermuda onions.
Notwithstanding it was a year when the markets were unfav
orable, these two men received net from each acre of onions
the sum of $358.01. The men are "W. P. Stites and "W. E.
Nicholson, whose address is Mission, Hidalgo County, Texas,
and they will gladly verify these statements. Their 43 acres
produced 34 car loads of onions, containing 17,061 crates, net
ting the growers $15,394.64, the commission men $1,320.00, the
crate men $2,900.37 and the railroads $8,291.79. Off of these
43 acres of onions, Messrs, Stites and Nicholson paid their
total living expenses, labor bills, rent, cost of crates, freight
and all other incidental expenses, amounting to a little over
$5,000 and for their one year's work, they put in bank some
thing over $10,000. These men have now made enough to pur
chase their own lands on the LaLomita ranch at Mission, and
are enthusiastic over the conditions and outlook for progres
sive farming at Mission.
The LaLomita lands at Mission are in the delta of the Kio
Grande, and are rich sediment lands, with an abundance of
river water for irrigation; in climate, fertility and products
these lands are the equal of the Nile delta in Egypt. In truck
growing this land produces earlier vegetables and fruits than
any other part of the United States. Even as early as the first
of January the Mission truck growers ship to northern markets
carloads of cauliflower, cabbage, string beans and peas.
Onions grown at Mission net from $200 to $500 per acre. Table
grapes ripen two months earlier than in California, are shipped
to northern markets early in June, and are also 1,000 miles
nearer these markets than the California raised grapes.
