"While frost killed many, of the j pecah buds in the central and north | ern counties, all indications point to a bumper crop in the big peach growing localities," says a State of i ficial. "The reports on the condition I of peach buds show an average of SO per cent, as compared with a I normal yield and last year at this ' time the percentage was for only about 60 per cent, of a normal yield. "The apple prospects indicate a j crop of about 93 per cent, of normal and the figure for pears is the same, i Plums show a mark of 92 per cent. ; of a normal yield and cherries 91 per j cent. In some sections the cherries have been affected by the cold I weather and it is likely that the ! crop will be somewhat lower than the percentage figure would indicate |at the present time. It promises to ! bo a splendid fruit year with the fruit , growers being especially fortunate i in helping along in tho movement for larger crops which is forcing agri i culture of all lines to its very limit."

The thin veil of stilling half-dead cuticle is an en cumbrance and should be removed to give the fresh. Vigorous, young skin underneath a chance to show itself and to breathe. There's a simple, old fashioned remedy which will always do tho work. Get an ounce of pure mereolized wax from your druggist and apply it at night like cold cream, washing it off in the morning. The wax will gently absorb all the llfe -1 less skin and leave a healthy and beautiful complexion, as fresh as a child's. Naturally it takes with it all such facial blemishes as freckles, moth patches, sallowness, liver spots, pimples.' It is pleasant to use, and economical. The face so treated soon looks years younger. To keep the skin free from wrinkles and furrows there's nothing quite so good as the old reliable saxolite lo tion. It is only necessary to dissolve an ounce of powdered saxolite in a half pint of witch hazel and bathe the face in this as required. The result is instantaneous and wonderful, and there is no harmful effect whatever,— Advertisement.
