Leave1 this on for 2 or min utes, then rub off. wash the skin and the hairs have vanished. No pain or Inconvenience attends this treatment, bat results will be certain If you be sure to ret real delatone.

A recent critic of the modern woman proclaims that her increased years of beauty are at the sacrifice of all coquetry in ber private life, and pictures her sleep- ing with face smeared with oily creams, chin strapped up with rubber bands and adhesive plasters ornamenting her brow. If women went to bed wearing a 1 1 the nostrums and beauty devices offered the spectacle would certainly be ridicu 1. lous, but it Is not at all necessary or wise that they should do so.

My personal opinion is that facial exercises are more efficacious than mechanical devices for correcting falling muscles, and to lie down to sleep with the muscles toned up and the expression composed by fifteen minutes' facial work will make the face far more beautiful and attractive during sleep. Wrlakle Plaster. Bits of adhesive plaster, wrinkle plasters they are usually called, are well-known correctors for frowning lines. In some cases these are useful in correcting bad habits of frowning, but it is doubtful if they should ever be left on for so considerable a period as a night's sleep. Frowning generally occurs when one is reading, sewing or engaged at some mental work.

Often wearing one of these plasters at such a time will correct this habit, but to leave the plaster on any length of time might draw and harm the skin or cause wrinkles to form in some other part.

Secretary, of the Crop Im provement Committee of the Council or Grain Exchanges of America, addressed the Chamber of Commerce yesterday aft ernoon on the subject ef the Importance of commercial organizations encouraging ag riculture. Mr. Bell declared that the need of education along scientific lines among farmers was exceedingly great. He pointed out that fully one half of the tillable land of the United States was not being used for agricultural purposes. and that the portion which was being used was only about one fourth efficient.

He quoted figures to show what the an nual sale of farm products amounted to. and what It would amount to If all the farm lands of the. country were worked up to their full efficiency. Millions of dollars are lying underground, he as serted, waiting to be turned up by the plowshare, the spade and the hoe. SEABS'S F0BTUNE LABGE.

THE ENQUIRER CINCINNATI 30, 1914 VOICES 1 Western Voters Of Raised Against Taxation Plans of President. Republicans Expect To Regain Lost Power. Internal Struggle On in Michigan Democracy. Progressives Have Dwindled 1 Until G. 0.

P. Has Pracr tically Clear Field, Politicians Say. grSCJAi, DISPATCH TO TBS SSOC1BBS. Chicago, September 29. Advices from Washington to the effect that the Demo crats are considering a taxation commis sion does not serve to soften the temper of the Middle Western people, who are heartily sick of the program of taxing everything In sight to cover up the deficits; caused by recent legislation.

The program, as It is viewed in the West, is to try out all sorts of vagaries and; theories, regardless of their cost in millions, and to pile on fresh taxes to support these theories. With the formation of a taxation com mission fat jobs would be provided for several of the faithful, and ail sugges- tione of fresh plans for prying the farmer and other workmen loose from their earnings would be cheerfully accepted. The West voiced very little objection to the income tax. although it was an ad mission that the tariff policies of the Administration had proved a wretched failure and the people would be expected to dig up the millions formerly paid by foreigners who had 'something to sclKto Americans. i i Exemption Is Opposed.

The exemption of all politicians' and funds controlled by them did not sit well in the West, but the country was willing to give the Administration a chance, even If the experiment was costly. Then came the proposition to slap on the war tax to make up the deficit left by the tariff fallacies, and this is jravslng deep resentment. Th tar.ff policy of the Administration, the Vott holds, is a failure, It was pronounced a failure before any talk of war in Europe was beard. If the entire worll was at peace. It is held, it would be een more marked as a failure than it now Is.

so the title of "war tax" does not sit well on the stomachs of the men who have to pay it. Taxpayers feel that once th burden Is fastened upon them, it will not be lifted until the Republicans are returned to power. They also feel certain that it will be followed by additional taxing schemes to pay for the mistakes of the men now in power at Washington. However, Republicans see Indication that the country will speedily restore their party to control of national affairs. With the exception of the First Congres sional District, where Frank Doremus appears to be especially strong, the Republicans of Michigan claim they will elect every congressional candidate.

1 Internal Struggle Is On. The Democracy of Michigan is engaged in internal strife that is tearing it badly. while the Bull Moose vote is constantly dwindling, so that the Republicans have practically a clear field. Two years ago it was tbfc Republicans who were quarreling among themselves, and the united Democrats, assisted by the Moose, man aged to slip In and secure the offices. In practically every "Democratic county convention the Insurgents attempted to name the delegates to the state convention, but were unsuccessful, except in a few instances.

This has not tended to soften their animosity toward the Democratic machine. The insurgents numter in tneir ranks some able leaders who are capable of creating a great disturbance. The or ganization heads are determined to crush the Insurgents once for all, and this in creases the otherwise glowing chances for Republican success. Republicans should find much comfort from the primary vote in Michigan. Total vote was 202,175, or nearly 30.000 over the Republican primary vote of 1812.

The Democratic primary vote was but 31.299, a decrease of nearly 10,000 from the vote of 1912. while the Moose polled but 6.908, against 10,000 two years ago. This ex plains the anguished yell of distress which is expected to bring Roosevelt into the state to try and revive his following. Loud Victory Is Surprise. 1 One of the big surprises of the primary 'campaign was the nomination of Colonel George Loud, of Bay City.

In the Tenth District. Colonel Loud had served several terms in Congress, and when he was defeated two years ago by- Roy O. Wood ruff, the Moose candidate, it was claimed by Democrats and Moo sera that he was through. Colonel Loud is one of the standpat-ters-the type of national legislators who did things under which the entire coun try prospered and the people would like to see him back in the harness along with "Uncle Joe" Cannon, William Mc Kinley and men of that type. The Bull Moose strength in the Tenth District la decidedly on the wane, and Colonel Loud will probably be elected.

There la also much in the Kansas situa tion that is encouraging to the Repub licans. Leaders in that state confidently expect to gain three members in the House of Representatives In the fall elec tion. At present the Republicans have two Congressmen Anthony, in the- First District, and Campbell, in the Third. They will undoubtedly re-elected, and in addition it Is expected to elect Calderhead in the Fifth, Dykes In the Sixth and Martlndale in the Fourth. Calderhead is facing a hard fight against Guy Halverlng, Both live in MarysviUe, and both are popular.

Calder-head's "come-back," after four years of retirement. following the election of, Judge Rollin R. Rees. is remarkable In many respects. At first he declined make the race, and his1 friends then brought out Judge 6am Kimble, ot Manhattan.

After Kimble had entered the raos Calderhead satisfied himself the Manhattan man could not win, and entered the contest. 4 Calderhead Wins Bace. With" his friends tied to Kimble. Calderhead entered the three-cornered fight, and won the nomination. Judge Kimble and all his following will rally to the support of Calderhead.

When in Congress before Calderhead was a member of the Ways and Means Committee, and was in a position to do much for his, district- He is a splendid campaigner, and Is already tightening up his battle lines. Nebraska also looks very promising for the Republicans, although it Is felt that there is an element in the party that desires the defeat of Robert B. Howell for Governor. This opposition dates back to the Republican National Convention i In Chicago, when Mr. Howell, as Republican National Committeeman, fought the nomination of President Taft and favored Roosevelt He went no farther than this, however, declining all pressure to get htm to quit the Republican party and follow the Mopaers.

Inasmuch as forces bitterly hostile to tbe national premier are in charge of the Democratic machinery in Nebraska, and will conduct the campaign this fall, it is felt that any hostility to Mr. Howell In Republican ranks sriU be more than offset by Democratic family quarrels. i The retirement to private life of the two Moose rs who sprang Into office, on the Roosevelt wave two years ago shows the trend of political events in the state of Washington. J. A.

of Everett, and J. W. Bryan having been swept into Congress, they aspired to senatorial honors. Bryan listened to the pleadings of friends and became a candidate for the Lower House, but was repudiated by his own party, while Falconer was defeated for the nomination by Ole Hanson. It is significant that the three Republican Con gressmen were renominated by sweeping majorities.

Their campaign has been more or less featured by alleged dissension with in the ranks. A so-called Insurgent fac tion has notified the State Committee would enter several contests before the Committee on Credentials, and an attempt Is under way to force Edmund C.

Shields, of Lansing, from the Chairmanship of the fitate -Central Committee. The faction known as the "organisation clement" announced to-night, how ever, that all difficulties would be Ironed out before the eonrenaion gets under way. and that Mr, Shield re-election Is probable.

It mas drmcd to he necessary at that time to call out the state troops to preserve order.

Colonel Theodore Roosevelt will be the principal speaker. i PARTY PLATF0B1IS Adopted By Democrats, Republicans and Progressives of New Jersey. Trenton. X. September 2.

Repre sentatives of the Republican. Democratic and Progressive parties met In state con ventions here to-day and adopted party platforms. The conventions were made up of hold-over State Senators, candidates for the State and Assembly and State Committeemen, as provided for In the Oeran election law. Governor Fielder presided over the Democratic convention. The Democratic platform included a warm Indorsement of President Wilson's Administration beginning with these words.

"We tender our tribute of whole-hearted praise and felicitation to tlie great New Jersey Democrat. Woodruw Wilson, who Is now the leader of lite nation at Washington." An effort to have the resolutions committee Include In Its draft of a platform an Indorsement of President WHson for re-election; in lul was defeated at tbe Instance of State Chairman Grosscup, who sajd he was expressing the President's own wishes in the matter. The Republican platform was a strongly protective tariff one and criticised the Democratic national and state administrations. The Progressives reiterated their platform of two years ago and defeated a proposed plank In favor of government ownership of public utilities. ISN'T HE THE DEAB! Congressman Kann Latest Recruit To Suffrage Cause.

rSCIAb PISPATCSf TO TSg BSQCIBBB. Chicago, September SS. Congressman James R. Mann, Republican minority leader, is the latest recruit to the ranks of Federal legislators favoring "votes for women." Congressman Mann's surrender to feminine entreaties is the cause of great rejoicing in suffrage circle. Tbe woman organisers now are bent on continuing their campaign until it is possible to have an amendment to the Federal Constitution passed.

i Minority Leader Mann in a brief letter to Mrs. Grace Wilbur Trout, President ot the Illinois Equal Suffrage Association, denied that he was a convert, but claimed that he had always been a proponent of suffrage. The National Woman's Suffrage Association had "blacklisted" Congressman Mann for his views on suffrage. WILSON'S ADMINISTRATION Is Indorsed at New Hampshire Democratic Platform Contention.

"I thought her an ordinary school girl, and yet every once in a while she makes what you billiard players call a professional shot. What matter? So Ion as they do not shut the door in my face.

I ask nothing more. But do you want my opinion? 1 feel it In my bones that Something will go wrong to-morrow." "Good Lord, are you losing your nerve?" cried Brslne Impatiently. "The secret service has the warning: they will find the green stuff, and Jones Ci. will mog off to the police station. And there'll be a week of red tape before they are turned loose again.

Effective, Economical Complexion Renewer One reason merceltsed wax Is so strongly recommended is that it really takes the flace of several different cosmetics, sav-ng ttme, patience and expense. It is better than any cleansing cream, better than any massage cream, and better than any rouge; for accomplishing the results for which such articles are used. As the wax actually absorbs an old. faded or discolored cuticle, a little each day, the underlying skin, which gradually appears, is clearer, softer, healthler-hued and more youthful than any cosmetic-made complexion. Spreading on a thin Coat of this wax at night, washing It off mornings, in a week or so produces a marvelous transformation.

Just one ounce of mercollsed wax, obtainable at any drugstore, will do the work. There's-nothing better to remove freckles, moth patches, liver spots, saUowness. blotches, pimples or blackheads. Fer wrinkles and loose, saggy skin, a face bath made by dissolving 1 os. powdered saxolite In Vi PL.
