tepid water and a mild soap, then apply
the lotion made as follows: In a pint of hot

very soothing and healing and will do won

B. X. says: "Your formula for removing
hairy growths is just grand. Mine are en

good vanishing cream for a dry, scaly skin."
Here is the way to make a fine vanishing
cream: Dissolve 2 ounces of cerol in a
scant pint of hot water.'then heat well for a
few minutes as you stir it. When cool, your
cream is ready. This makes nearly a full
pound for BOc and is about four times as
much as you would get for that price if you
bought it ready prepared. Use this cream
night and morning for a while and it will
soon correct the troubles you mention. This

softness to the skin.

some of the best talent of Central
High, where Volney is a freshman.
The cast included live boys and four
girls. Patriotic and popular songs
were featured throughout the two acts
and Vic Eisler's (as near Eriu Kreis
ler as possible) violin moaned, wept,
wailed, laughed and sang during the
evening, lending itself to the mu
sician's moods.
Costumes were designed by Vnlncy
Hampton and Miss 1'cnclopc Hamil
ton. Invitations read:
"The Webster street hunch (that
awful mob of kids1) have decided (our !
