YOU'LL GET RID OF BLACKHEADS SURE There is one simple, safe and sure way that never falls to get rid of blackheads and that Is to dissolve them. To do this Ret about two ounces of plain powdered neroxin from any drug store —sprinkle a little on a hot, wet sponge—rub over the blackheads brisk ly—wash the parts anil you will be sur prised how the blackheads have disap peared. Big blackheads, little black heads, 110 matter where they are, simply dissolve hnd disappear, leaving the narts without any mark whatever. Rlackhends are simply a mixture of dust and dirt and secretions from the liodv that form in the pores of the skin. Pinching and squeezing only cause irritation, make large pores, and do not get the blackheads out after tliev become hard. The powdered neroxin and the water simply dissolve the blackheads so they wash right out, leaving the pores free and clean and In I their natural condition. Anyone troubled with these unsightly blemishes should certainly try this simple method.

One da ya butler who had been in the royal service for many years had the misfortune to smash one of the pre cious cups, and in an agony of fear he went to Queen Emma and told her what he had done. "Never mind!" said her majesty. "Stick the cup together with cement ■ and leave the rest to me." This was accordingly done, and ! when the royal family sat down to tea j the next day the mended cup was| placed close to Queen Emma on the J table. Suddenly her majesty turned hasti ly round to speak to the King, and as she did so she swept the cup on to the floor with her arm. As it crashed j into a dozen pieces she pretended to I be deeply upset, and said timidly to | the King: "There, see what an awk- ' ward servant I am! You will have to J dismiss me from your service. Seeing how grieved she was, the | King buried his chagrin and made!
