Opportunity Calls
If you do not think training is necessary for a position, just try to get one. You
will hear: "If you knew bookkeeping and stenography, we could use you.
It is always the least valuable employe who goes first when it is necessary to econ
omize. And the least valuable one is he who has had no special training for his work.
Businessmen do not have time to teach—they want to employ young people who
can go ahead without much supervision—and that is what a course with us does. It
fits the boy or girl in a very short time to hold a good position satisfactorily.

How to Lose Your Ton,
Freckles or Wrinftles
A day's motoring, an afternoon on
the tennis ground or golf links, a sun
bath on the beach or exposure on a
lake trip, often brings on a deep tan
or vivid crimson or, more perplexing
still, a vigorous crop of freckles. A
very necessary thing then is mercol
ized wax, which removes tan, redness
or freckles quite easily. It literally
peels off the affected skin—just a lit
tle at a time, so there s no hurt or in
jury As the skin conrts off In almost
invisible flaky particles, no trace of
the treatment Is shown. Get an ounce
of mercolized wax at your druggist s
and use this nightly as you would cold
cream, washing it oft mornings. In
a week or so you will have an entirely
new skin, beautifully clear, transpar
ent and of a most delicate whiteness.
Wrinkleß. so apt to form at this sea
