GOOD NEWS FOR v
MOTHERS AND DAUGHTERS.
How often do we see a naturally beau
tiful face marred by wrinkles, black
leads, blotches and pimples, caused in
the majority of cases by inactivity of the
pores of the skin? These minute open
ings fail or are unable to perform their
natural functions, hence the skin is
disfigured.
We are pleased to say that the new
remedy l'aracamph makes the skin soft,
smooth and healthy, by creating a natural
activity in the pores.
When applied, Paracamph. opens the
pores, stimulates circulation, removes
congestion and any inflammation by in
ducing perspiration. It draws out the
impurities and removes Black-heads,
Pimples, Blotches, etc., in a perfectly
safe and sure manner. o
. If applied freely to the face twice a day,
morning and niirht, ami rubbed in weil,
then covered with a hot towel for two or
three minutes, it will not only cool and
soothe but remove the troubles and im
Irt a healthy peach .bloom glow to the
skin that will please even the most par
ticular woman.
Paracainph positively docs not contain
anything that will injure even the most
delicate skin. It is a clean, safe, cooling,
soothing, application that every mother
nd daughter can tise every day in the
year with pleasing and satisfactory results.
A trial will convince you. So get a
bottle of Paracamph to-day from your
druggist, if It fails to do what we claim,

Mayor Gorder Gets Settlement.
Last Saturday, in response to a let
ter from C. B. Dempster, of the Demp

Mayor F. H. Gorder went over to Be
atrice to try and effect a settlement of
the differences which have existed be
tween the Dempster people and the
city over the purchase of the water
works engine and pump last fall.
After goiiikr over the details of the
deal and talking it over, the Demp
ster people refunded the mayor the
sum of $192.50, which he accepted in
full settlement. This makes quite a
material reduction in the cost of the
water plant and is a fair price for the
equipment bought. Mayor Gorder is
entitled to the hearty thanks of the
people of this community for the in
terest he has taken in this affair, as it
was almost by his unaided efforts that
a settlement was effected and the re
fund made. As to whether or not any
outside parties had a share in the
rake-off, it is impossible m) say, but it
is enough to know that the deal has
been fixed up and that everything is
now satisfactory. Weeping Water Re
