SURE WAY TO GET
RID OF BLACKHEADS
There is one simple, safe and sure way
that never fails to get rid of blackheads
and that is to dissolve them.
To do this get two ounces of calonite
powder from any drug store sprinkle a
little on a hot, wet sponge rub over the
blackheads briskly wash the parts and
you will be surprised how the blackheads,
have disappeared. Big blackheads,
little blackheads, no matter where they
are, simply dissolve and disappear, leav
ing the parts without any mark whatever.
Blackheads are simply a mixture .of dust
and. dirt and secretions from the body
that form in the pores of the skin pinch
ing and squeezing only cause irritation,
make large pores, and do not get them
out after they become hard. The calonite
powder and water simply dissolve the
blackheads so they wash right out, leav
ing the pores free and elean and in their
natural condition. Anybody troubled with
these unsightly blemishes should cer
tainly try this simple method.

LACK OF MONEY
MAY BE RELIEVED
BY CONTRACTORS
May Take Over portion of City
Bonds Issued to Cover Cost
of Street and Sewer
Work.
The present stalemate in regard
to work on $400,000 worth of sewer
and street improvements may be re
lieved through contractors taking
over a portion of the city bonds
issued to cover cost of the work.
City Commissioner Roy N. Towl
said yesterday.
He and Finance Commissioner
Ure have been conferring with con
tractors on this plan, he said, and
have received assurances from some
of the contractors who express a
willingness to take the bonds in or
der to prevent further delay in
starting work.
Finance Commissioner Ure has
been unable to find a market for this
year s $100,000 street intersection
bond issue, the $200,000 sewer bond
issue, and $100,000 worth of city jail
bonds. The financial market at pres
ent, he finds, offers opportunities
which most investors consider more
attractive than the S per cent mu
nicipal bonds.
Meanwhile, ' the contracts for
$200,000 worth of street paving and
$200,000 worth of sewer construction
are pigeonholed in Commissioner
Ure's office. Under a ruling of the
city legal department, he is not au
thorized to approve the contracts
as in effect until funds are actually
available to cover cost of all work
performed under them.
If contractors prove unwilling to
tske over a sufficient portion of the
bonds to relieve the present delay,
an appeal may be made to interest
small investors, it was stated today.
Commissioner Towl is preparing
to advertise next Friday for bids of
approximately $40,000 worth of ad
ditional street improvement work.
Work is being nushed on the new
city jail with $100,000 already avail
able in the city treasury. When
that amount is exhausted construc
tion will have to stop, unless mean
while a market can be found for the
$100,000 worth of jail bonds.
Bon'ar Law Says England

WILL REPRESENT U. S. AT SUFFRAGE CONVENTION AT
GENEVA For the first time in ita history the International Woman
Suffrage alliance, which is to hold its eighth congress in Geneva,
Switzerland, June 6 to 12, will be attended by an official representa
tive of the United States government. President Wilson has appointed
Mrs. Josephus Daniels, wife of the secretary of the navy, to represent
the United States in an official capacity. At former meetings of the
alliance only countries wherein women have full suffrage have had
official representatives. The fact that the United States is to have
its official representatives indicates the depth of conviction among
suffragists that this country will be in the full suffrage list next June.

Seek to Keep Teuton
Artists on Own Soil
London, April 14. The supreme
Council may extend the right hand
of fellowship and the loan of a
"fiver" to the late enemy, but not
so the Variety Artists' federation.
Efforts have been made to book
German music hall artists for
"turns" in this country. The Inter
nationale Articten-Logo of Berlin
is so anxious "to get German artists
onto British stages that it has pro
posed that if fifteen German per
formers are admitted to England
eighty-five English artists may book
in Germany.
The variety artists point to a 1916
resolution forbidding booking Ger
mans for three years after peace is
declared, and to another passed in
1919 directed against employment of
Germans in any capacity at any
time. i
The Germans aje attempting to
"undersell" the British, Danish and
Scandinavian markets by offering
engagements at prices far under
