Flood at Presidio Two
Feet Deep Over Settlement
Presidio, Tex., Sept. 24. Tempor
ary dikes erected to protect the bus
iness district of this town from flood
waters in the Rio Grande broke early
today and water is two feet deep
over the entire settlement. It is re
ported that unusually high water in
the Conchos river, which empties into
the Rio Grande near here, and whi.h
is aggravating the situation, is caused
by breaking of a big dam at Labo
'quilla. Soldiers and civilians are working
in relays to rescue settlers i.i the sox
lands near here, marooned by the
from stores here. Every available
man has been pressed into service.
Cavalrymen stationed here worked all
night rescuing marooned families.
Efforts to rebuild the broken ikes
are- being made. The flood, which old
residents in the Big Bend country
say-is the worst within their memory,
has caused no loss of life so far as is
known. Property loss will be heavy.

Derma ologi t Gives '
Complexion Secret
The great secret of keeping the face young
is to keep off the dead cuticle," say Dr. J.
Mortimer Mitchell. "It is well known that
the surface skin is constantly dying, falling
off in imperceptible particles, except in some
diseased conditions, when the same appear
like dandruff. But the particles do not all
drop off immediately they die, being held for
a while by the live skin. '
"To have the dermatoldgical surgeon peel
off the entire outer skin at one time is a
.painful and expensive operation. The same
result is obtained by app!ying ordinary mer
colised wax, as you would cold cream, allow
ing this to remain on over night, then tak
ing it off with warm water. One ounce usu
ally suffices. The process is , both painless
and inexpensive. The wax, which is procur
able at your drug store, hastens the natural
shedding, process. It gradually absorbs the
Head and halfn'ead skin, revealing the new,
bi'ilthy. youthful-looking 'skin underneath.

WAR-AID STAMPS
SCON TO BE SOLD
Secretary McAdoo Has Plan
That Will Permit Persons.of
Small Income to Da
Their Bit.
t Washington, Sept. 24. Every town
and city in the country will have on
sale soon a share of the $2,000,000,000
worth of war savings certificates iust
authorized by congress. Secretary
McAdoo announced tonight th.it the
certificates, in denominations as large
as $5, bearing 4 per cent interest and
maturing in five years, will be issued
in blocks from time to time, beginning
as quickly as plans can be completed.
The treasury sub-treasurt.-s. In
ternal revenue, customs, and other
agencies will be designated to make
sales.
"It is proposed," said Mr. McAdoo
tonight, "to develop the plans in such
a way that savings mav he made
through the purchase of stamps of
small denominations, which can e
carried in books issued for the pur
pose and accumulated until a sufficient
amount has been saved to purchase a
war savings certificate. This will Rive
every man, woman and child, in Amer
ica, no matter how small his means,
the opportunity to do something to
help the government."
Eat Fewer Sweets, Says
Hoover; Give French Chance
Washington, Sept. 24. Food Ad
ministrator Hoover appealed to the

months entirely without sugar.

the French government," Mr. Hoover
First Sammie Captured to
Interview Croicn Prince
Geneva, Switzerland, Sept. 23.
Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria,
commander of the German army on
the northern end of the western
front, according to a dispatch from
Munich, has issued an order that
the first American officer captured
on his front shall be taken immedi
ately to his headquarters.
Reports that the German military
authorities had offered a reward to
the first German capturing an
American soldier were denied Sep-
Ltmber 20 in a statement from the
Wolff bureau, the official German
news agency. The diary of a Prus
sian sergeant captured previous to
September IS mentioned that a
German general on the western
front had offered for the first
American, dead or alive, 400 marks,
two weeks' leave and the iron cross
of the first class as. a reward for his
captor.
said, "that we allow them to export
from the United States 100,00 tons of
sugar during the next month, and
probably more at a later period.
"Our fiwn situation is that we have
just sufficient sugar to maintain our
normal consumption until the first of
January, when the new West India
crop becomes available to all.
"Sugar is a human necessity. If
our people will reduce by one-third
their purchases and consumption of
candy and of sugar for other uses
than preserving fruit, which we do not
wish to interfere with, we can save
the French situation.
"In the interest of the French peo
ple and in the interest of the loyalty
we owe them, I ask the American peo
ple to do this. It is unthinkable that
we refuse their request."

CUT THIS OUT
OLD ENGLISH RECIPE FOR CATARRH,
CATARRHAL DEAFNESS AND
HEAD NOISES.
If yon Vnow of soma one who Is troubled
with Catarrhal Deafness, head noises or ordi
nary catarrh cut out this formula and hand
it to them and you may hove been the means
of saving some poor sufferer perhaps from
total deafness. In England scientists for
long time past have recognised that catarrh
is a constitutional disease and necessarily re
quires constitutional treatment
Sprays, Inhalers and nos douches are
liable to Irritate the delicate air passages
and force the disease into the middle ear
which frequently means total deafness or
else the disease may be driven down the air
passages towards the lungs, which is equally
as dangerous. The following formula which
is used extensively In the damp English
climate is a constitutional treatment and
should prove especially efficacious to suf
ferers here who live under more favorable
climate conditions.
Secure from your Druggist t nunc ot
Parmint (Double Strength). TaVe this home
and add to it '1 pint of hot water and 4
ounces of granulated sugar; str until dis
solved. Take one tablesptHinful four times a
day. This will often bring quick relief from
distressing head poises. Clogged nostrils
should open, breathing become easy and
hearing Improve aa the Inflammation in the
eustachian tubes la reduced. Parmint used
in this way acts directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system and has
slight ton io action that fncilitiates obtaining
the desired results. Tha preparation la easy
to make, costs little and is pleasant to take.
Every person who has catarrh should give
this treatment trial. Advertisement
