Simplified Gasoline Engine Is Hired Girl of Country This 'miniature motor is the house wife's faithful laundress, churner, etc. It can be operated with as much suc cess by a child as by an adult. One turn of the light flywheel and the en gine starts off. By simply turning the thumbscrew over the main bearing, its speed is adjusted. The cylinder of the motor is invert ed. This allows the gasoline to flow from its tank directly into contact with the electric spark caused by the spark coil of the ignition system. The result is that some gas will imme diately explode and the engine can be quickly started even in the coldest weather. The inversion of the cylin der, moreover, makes it a simple mat ter to enclose its hot end in an iron housing, out of the way of the chil dren's fingers. Popular Science Monthly for November.

WITH a few cents in money, and a few minutes of trouble, any woman may bring about a very remarkable change in her personal appearance. I know of many cases where a remarkable transformation occurred literally over night Any woman can try this simple wrinkle formula, nrkking it up at home herself. Beaides. it is more economical than any of the creams you can buy at the stores. Get from your druggist two ounces of eptol for about fifty cents, and mix it with two tablespoonf uls of glycer ine in half a pint of water. This eream should be used liberally much depends on that, and it should De used every aay. n. i exceedingly effective on crow's feet, sag ging flesh and deep lines in the face. DESIROUS Inside of a week you should notice a decided difference in the length of V w. A An iiniiaii. 1 (yln.mintxQ and yuur nan, ouu - vigor by using my formula, 'as follows: Mix one ounce of beta-quinol with one pint of bay rum, or else a half pint of each of water and alcohol it preferred. It is not oily. Rub into the hair every day with the fingers. I can aasure you of splendid results. Yes, it i, true I am known as the only woman on the American stage who does not need to use hair mnkesh'fts of any kind. I am par . . . n.i nii .i ....:.: A ticulariy proua oi ine weann nu cuuumuu of my hair, and I know any woman can obtain the same result if she will merely make up her mind to do it, and do it. You will have no occasion for complain ng about the masses of hair com'ng out on your comb, of poor, sick hair and thin spots. Use this formula and you will very quickly see the enormous difference. MRS. R. B. T. A face powder more "flighty" than a puff ball and Invisible, this is the extraordinary face powder that has bene produced after my own formula to do away with all chalkiness. It excels any im ported powder, yet it is sold for only fifty cents, in flesh, white or bsunette. at any drug store, and is called "Valeska Suratt Face Powder." Try It. , . . MRS. M. M. A teaspoonful of eggol in half a cup of water makes the most unusual, delightful and thorough shampoo and head wash you can get. All fatty accumulations on the scalp dissolve away immediately, and it helps hair to row. W ELIZABETH B. Be sure to try this for bust de velopment. It is very effective in many cases, though results in every instance cannot he insur ed. Take two tea nfl. after meals and at bed time of a mix-' ture of two ounces of ruetone and half a cup of sugar in a pint of water. The ruetone can be obtained at any drug store. BADLY You will never realize how mar velously easy it is to remove superfluous hair until you moisten the hairs with a little sulfo solution and see how they just crinkle up and dissolve away almost to the roots. It is just as though you were to ap ply a dolightful face cream to the skin and then wipe it off no danger, no spotting, with skin left clear and smooth. It is really the only way. The sulfo solution at any drug store will cost one dollar, and is cer. tainly worth a great deal more. MRS. B. F. S. It is rarely you find a drug store that hasn't the intone for the complexion or the ben-ou!nol for the hair, but if 't should happen strain that you can't get it, send the price, which is fifty cents for either of them, to my secretary. "Secre tary to ValeiKa suran. inomiwuu uunu ing. Chicago," and it will be aent to you by mail at once. PEPPERY I told one of my friends the other day she could get rid of those black heads in five minutes. She could hardly be lieve it. But at my suggestion she obtained some powdered neroxin from her druggist for fifty cents, sprinkled some on a wet cloth and rubbed the blackheads with it. They all vanished. You can do the same. TRYING To see how this formula drives away all skin spots is certainly wonderful. You will be able to make your complexion remarkably clear in a very, very ehort while by using it freely every day without fail. It is delightful, too. Get from your druggist one ounce of sintone, and simply mix with two tablespoonfuls of glycerine and a pint of water. You can get the xintone at an drug store. Advertisement
