Don't Paint Cheeks
Girls —Have Beautiful
Complexion—No Rouge
Don't use rouge, girls. It never
looks natural. It is conspicuous.
Everyone Knows you have it on.
If you lack natural color and
your complexion is pale, sallow or
faded, here Is a simple home recipe
that will give you a soft, velvety
peach-like complexion in just a
few minutes without hurting your
skin and in a perfectly natural
way. You need never use a bit
of "make up" again.
Get 4 oz. of Witch Hazel and
I oz. of Borated Mazba from
Kennedy Cut Hate Store or any
good druggist and put in a clean
pint bottle. Then till up with
boiled water. This makes a full
pint of the very best cijmplex- ,
ion beautitier you will, ever find.
No rubbing or massage is needed.
Just apply to face with a bit of
sponge or absorbent cotton. Do I
this each morning or whenever
you are going out and you will
be astonished at the absolutely i
natural and refined beauty it
gives your skin in loss than five
minutes and better still, it never t
injures the skin like rouge.

—have decided to quit the manufacturing business on
account of war conditions which have affected them
in no small way.
Materials are scarce and high in price—so they have
closed out their stock.

VERY MUCH LOWER PRICES THAN GOOD

cost approximately $4,500,000.
Announcement of the order was
made at Washington during the day.
Officials of the company would make
no comment on it, neither denying
or confirming the fact that this addi
tional work for the government was

NEED MERGERS
FOR RAILROADS
Samuel Rea, President of the
Pennsy, Points Out
Conditions
Washington, Oct. 18.—That govern
mental control of railroads in its
broadest sense is necessary; that
there should be more effective Fed
eral valuation of the systems; that
all restrictions against railway merg
ers xhould be wiped out and the 2,.185
separate railroad corporations might
be consolidated into only eighty-five
great units anil that systems of ac
counting should be simplified, were
some of the striking points brought
out by Samuel Rea, president of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, in a speech
last night.
Mr. Rea was addressing the Na
tional Association of Railroad Com
missioners at their banquet, and his
advanced views caused considerable
discussion. Mr. Rea said in part:
What Knllroitda Are Doing
"We are expediting traffic; carry
ing more tons to a car and to a
train; moving freight cars and en
gines more miles per day; eliminat
ing unnecessary train service; con
solidating passenger trains; secur
ing prompter unloading, and in many
ways releasing men, trackage and
equipment to care for the movement
of troops, military supplies, food, fuel
and other necessities. We are mak
ing priority shipments under man
date of the Federal law. By our
own agreement we are moving empty
cars about the country so as to put
them promptly where they are most
urgently needed, and are arranging
the routing of traffic according to the
best physical conditions, and without
reference to benefiting individual
roads.
Other Example*
These are but part of the response
of the railroads to the needs of the
national defense. Other examples of
subordination of the competitive ac
tivities of individual railroads to the
general welfare are supplied by the
efforts made in expediting coal'ship
ments; in furnishing material for the
cantonments: In providing facilities
for new shipyards, industries and
mines; in handling the movement of
more than 700,000 troops to camp and
to seaports for transportation abroad
and in other ways.
"The day is here for the consoli
dation and unification of railroad
systems. No less than 2,385 separate
railroad corporations report' to the
Interstate Commerce Commission, and
I hazard the guess that at least 2,300
of them could be merged into ?ie
bigger systems with vast benefit to
the public and every one else con
cerned.
"There are still, in the Pennsyl
vania Railroad System, about 115 ac
tive transportation companies, all
necessary, as matters now stand, for
the conduct of the service. I think
we will all agree that this is just 114
too many.
"I wish here to say, most unequivo
cally, that, in my Judgment, the pool
ing of traffic by the railroads is es
sential for the public service and
should be affirmatively legalized, not
only for the period of the war, but
for all times. And I desire to add
my belief that the restrictions of the
Sherman law should not apply to the
railroads, and that mergers and com
binations intended to increase effi
ciency, simplify accounting and elim
inate the wastes of competition
should not only be countenanced, but
encouraged, under public supervision
and control."
Another Appeal Made
For Freight Increases
Washington, Oct. 18.—Another
appeal for a horizontal increase of
fifteen per cent, in freight rates was
informally made by the railroads of
the country to the Interstate Com
merce Commission yesterday.
The hearing was requested by the
railroads mainly to ascertain what
procedure they should follow in ma
king a formal application, and it de
veloped a willingness on their part
to postpone any operation of the in
crease for sixty days.
The chief argument was made by
George S. Patterson-, of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad, and other officials of
this road were present at the hearing.

Joseph Vance, who was arrested
by Philadelphia detectives in this
city on Tuesday morning, charged
with the Tarcenv of several Bell Tele
phone coin boxes, admitted his guilt
in police court yesterday afternoon.
Detective exhibited the crew
drivers and plyers used by Vance in
cutting the wires attached to the
boxes, and the young man promptly
informed Alderman Landis that he
would plead guilty before the Dau
phin county court.
F. S. Marshall, colored, a druggist
at liOas and Cowdon streets was or
dered by Fire Chief Kindler to ap
pear in police court yesterday as
the result of a collision between the
car driven by Marshall and the Royal
tire truck.
On Tuesday evening the car driven
by Marshall was struck by the fire
truck at Fifteenth and' Walnut
streets. This is the testimony of
Marshall, supported bv a witness
Peter Shickley, driver of the rtre ap
paratus: William Bowers, of Brook
wood and Melrose streets, and Pa
trolman William Dutton. who were
on the lire truck, claimed that
Marshall was proceeding down the
street at thirty miles an hour, and
crashed into the flre-fightlng outfit.
Because of the conflicting testi
mony, Alderman fined Mar
shall $5 for exceeding the speed
limit. •
William Bowers, who was standing
on the truck when the accident oc
curred. was thrown from the truck
and was cut about the face.
All parties concerned in the mix
up seem dissatisfied with the alder
man's decision. Marshall, through
his attorney, W. Justin Carter, may
appeal from the court's decision. Of
ficials of the fire company consider
bringing a civil suit for damages.
E. P. Shaner, 1938 Derry street,
was arrested on the charge that he
had given liquor to a soldier, and
was given a hearing in p<fliee court
yesterday. Shaner and the soldier
were seen at the rear of the Majes
tic theater with two bottles of beer.
Witnesses failed to prove that the
accused man had furnished the
liquor, and he was allowed to go with
a $5 fine for being Intoxicated.

merry until the wee sma' hours of
the morning—particularly in Straw

to get up from your downy bed to

pened to Joseph Jones, 130 South

He was stricken with terror when

complained of fearful pains in his
