sociation and were hospitably intro

rible devils chased them. After finally
escaping from the awful place they
were escorted to the Presbyterian
church, where they were presented
with such delightful souvenirs as dead
rats, cats, snakes and the hands of
dead men. The Congregational church
offered all sorts of wierd surprises as
the pedestrians made their way over
the rocky road, which wound from
basement to attic. At the Baptist
church they opened the tombs, that
all might see and converse with the
dead and learn of their fate and the
punishment that awaits the evil doer.

experiences the weary travelers were
rewarded by a sumptuous feast at
the Young Women's Christian asso
ciation. The members of the R. E. M. club

To Help Nature Shed
a Bad Complexion
Beauty devotees are enthusiastic over the
beautifying qualities of mercolised wax.
Nothing discovered within recent years ac
complishes so much, so quickly, without
harm, at such small expense. The principal
reason for its wonderful merit is that it
works th harmony with physiological laws.
Instead of hiding complexion defects, it re
moves them. It actually takes off tha aged,
faded, sallow, freckled or blotchy surface
skin gently,- gradually, causing no incon
venience. It Is Nature's way of renewing
complexions. ....
When the natural process is retarded be
cause of deficient circulation or nerv tone,
mercolised wax comes to the rescue and
hastens the skin shedding. The new com
plexion which appears is a natural one,
youthful, healthy, exquisitely beautiful. It
you've never tried mercolized wax, get an
ounea of it at the drug store, use at night
like cold cream, washing it off in the morning.-

A Powerful Secret Not Generally Known
is Civen by the Screen Star,
Valeska Suratt.
BY VALESKA SURATT
IT is certainly a pity that more women
have not known the wonders that can
be accomplished by the application, once
a day, of the following oilless exquisite hair
"forcer." It takes but a few moments to
use, and it does not Interfere with hair
dressing in the least. Get from your drug
gist one ounce of beta-quinol, and mix it
with a pint of bay rum, or one-half pint
each of water and alcohol. Short, thin hair
will grow out with wonderful profusion and
vigor, and thin spots will quickly fill out
It will not fail.
a a
MISS G. H. K. Blackheads can be re
moved in a few moments, even while you
are engaged in your toilet. And to think
you have been years trying to get rid of
these embarrassing blackheads I On a hot wet
cloth sprinkle some powdered neroxin, which
you can get at any drug store for fifty
cents, and rub this over the affected skin.
You will find the blackheads will ba en
tirely gone in a few moments.
a a a
DEE DEE Talk about shampoos I Jusf
dissolve a teaspoonful of eggol in half a
cuo of -water, and use as a head-wash. Yon
will be surprised at the remarkable cleanli
ness of your scalp and the glossiness of
your hair, as a result. For twenty-five cents
you can get at the drug store enough eggol
to last for many weeks.

DESPERATE You need no longer dread
the taking off of superfluous hairs. It can
now be done as easily as bathing the face.
It is wonderful to see every superfluous hair .
just shrivel up and come right off by mois I
tening the hairs with sulfo solution. It !
leaves the skin smooth, clear and clean, as i
though there had been no superfluous hsirs i
at all. This is the war it is done by those :
who know. It's all done so quickly, and it
can be used with perfect safety, no matter
how thick the hair growth or how delicate
the skin. Use it in armpits, on face, should
ders. etc., and you will at last rid yourself
of that pest of superfluous hair. The sulfo
solution can be secured for one dollar at
any drug store. . j
a a
MILDRED S. The following wrinkle
formula is worth a fortune to any woman
You can make it at home in a few moments,
and it-costs less than any wrinkle treat
ment you can get at the stores already pre
pared. Ask your druggist for a two-ounce
package of eptol, and mix this wth two
tablespoonfuls of glycerine in half a pint
of water. The skin will grow mora plump,
and deep lines, crow's feet and other large
and small wrinkles will gradually fill out
and vanish. If you never do anything else ,
in your life, use this formula, and you will
never regret it.
a .a I
EUNICE Y. You certainly should have
been able to get at the drug store the bets
quinol for the hair, and the eptol for
wrinkles. However, if you will send fifty
cents, which is the price of either one, ad
dressing "Secretary to Valesk S"r.i"
Thompson Building, Chicago," It will be
sent to you at once by mail.
MISS. B. L. R. Yes, most face powders
are chalky. It's just the reason why I have
my own face powder made after my own
formula. It is almost invisible giving a
natural bloom to the skin you never ex
perienced before. It is now sold in drug
stores as "Valeska Suratt Face Powder," in
white, flesh and brunette, at fifty cents a
box.
CORA B. Y. That is something can't
promise. However, if anything in this world
can develop the bust, this formula eertainly
will do it Mix two onces of ruetont and
half a cup of sugar in a pint of water. Take
two .toaspoonfuls after each meal and on re
tiring. This formula has done marvels for
a good many. Advertiiemant
