Embarrassing Hairs
Can Be Quickly Removed
(Beauty Culture)
Hairs can be easily banished from
the skin by this quick, painless
method: Mix into a stiff paste some
powdered delatone and water,
spread on hairy surface and in 2
or 3 minutes rub off, wash the skin
and it will be free from hair or
blemish. Excepting in very stub
born growths, one application is
sufficient. To avoid disappoint
ment, buy the. delatone in an origi
nal package.

Coal Prices to Make
Additional Advances
We say it frankly that coal j
prices are going to experience:
additional advances. The next
of which will occur September
1 when a 20c increase goes into j
effect. From our analysis of \
coal conditions cheaper coal is ]
impossible until there is a read- !
justment of the wages paid the !
miners—and the present wage j
scale is certain to be maintained
for an indefinite time.
If you wait till Winter to buy
your coal two things are cer- ;
tain—you will pay more and not
get all you need.

WEDNESDAY EVENING,
PROPOSED TRIAL
WORRIES KAISER
Displays Irritation After He
Reads Clause in Peace
Treaty
AmcronSen, July 9.—The former
German Emperor displayed marked
Irritation after reading the clause of
the Peace Treaty In which the Allies
announced their intention of put
ting him on trial on charges of vio
lation of international morality and
01 the sanctity ot treaties. For sev
eral hours- alter he had read the
eluuse no one at the castle of
Amerougen had the courage to ap
proach hint. Hp sat in a chair be
tore the main entrance to the castle.
Entyely alone and apparently in
deep thought while the lormer Em
press, Auguste Victoria, and the
members of his suite walked in the
grounds occasionally glancing in his
direction.
Next day he seemed to be in a
state of nervous agitation, for he
frequently ceased his sawing and
walked away leaving those who as
sist him to continue the work alone.
Eater, however, he resumed with in
creased energy, so much so that one
of his assistants was forced to take
to his bed for some days in order
to recover from a chill caught while
perspiring at the other end of the
saw.
Subsequently the dull life at the
castle resumed Its ordinal.' dullness
and since the first display of annoy
ance Count Hohenzollern has shown
few signs of being much affected
by the conditions of the Peace
Treaty.
The former Emperor has sawn his
4.000 th log and it is asserted by
some of his retainers that he intends
to bring the number up to 10,000.
The logs which now form a large
heap are placed in piles to dry in
preparation for use as fuel in the
castle next winter.

SEE SUCCESS OF
"IRISH REPUBLIC"
1 Only Army Can Keep It Down,
Declares Edward F.
Dunne
By Associated Press.
Now York, July 9.—Only a "gi
gantic military machine, equipped
with machine guns and armored
cars" and "imprisonment of their
trusted leaders" can prevent the
"full operation of a Republican gov
ernment In Ireland," Edward F.
' Dunne, former governor of Illinois,
i and one of three American dele
-1 gates sent abroad by the Irish So-
I cieties of America to intercede in |
I behalf of Ireland at the Peace Con-
I ference. declared upon his arrival !
here yesterday on the steamer La i
| Savoic. With Mr. Dunne came 1
' Frank P. Walsh, another of the ;
I delegates, who also issued- a state- j
I ment predicting early success of the !
j "Irish Republic" cause.
The two delegates were given an •
. enthusiastic reception by a crowd of !
j several hundred persons, when they
: debarked. They drove immediate
i ly to the hotel where Eamon De
| Valera. "President of the Irish Re
! public" is stopping.
"We are satisfied that our mis
' sion accomplished most, if not all,
that we set out to achieve," Mr.
j Dunne said.
"The case of Ireland before the
| World's Peace Conference was being
1 deliberately ignored prior to our ar
rival in Paris, and was being treat
-1 ed by England with her usual un
; concern and contempt.
I "We went to Ireland and thus
i were able to give to President Wil
j son, the American commission, and
! to the world, a true unvarnished
j story of English atrocities and mili
! tary misrule in Ireland. We eom
; pelled the castle authorities in Dub-
I lin and finally the whole English and !
' Irish press to take up and discuss I
j openly the scandal of military occu- I
pation and oppression."

SALES FORCE TO
GO TO FRANCE
l Will Sell American Army
Equipment in That
Country
Washington, July 9.—The FYench
government having offered only
; $300,000,000 for American Army
j equipment in France costing $1,500,-
; 000,000, the War Department has
ordered a sales organization for d s
; posal of the property be formed in
! France, Director of Sales Hare told
a special House committee investi
i gating War Department expendi
tures aboard.
Director Hare said the French
ofTer was made to Chairman Parker,
of the United States Liquidation
Commission. The offer, he said, in
cluded all materials, including ship
docks, railroad works and equip
ment, automobile trucks and tex
tiles.
Mr. Hare, with a small party of
industrial experts, will sail for
Europe on Saturday to begin their
I work abroad. Sales offices and or
i ganizations will bo organized and
| maintained at various places
throughout Europe, the director
said, and much of the material may
be returned to the United States.
Members of the subcommittee in
their discussion with Mr. Hare,
made it plain that they favored re
turning all possible supplies to this
country "to break the high prices"
as Chairman Johnson, of South Da
kota, said.
Mr. Hare outlined his sales policy
I as not to preserve high prices for
i benefit of manufacturers, but to
! prevent unnecessary industrial dis
j turbance and sacrifice in price that
J would result from "dumping all
| surplus goods on the market." Re
i ferring to the meat packers and
I vegetable canners, he said:
"We have told them we don't in
. tend to save them, but to play the
] game for the best of all."
Ships for return of goods from
j abroad are expected to be available
i about September 1, the director
] said.
Old Army Cars Bring
Big Prices in England
I/ondon—American army motor
| transport in England has not cost
I the United States Government any
l thing for machines, aocording to
; figures prepared at army headquar-
I ters here. Astonishing prices have
j been paid here for machines the
army has placed on auction, tour
j ing cars in scores of instances bring
| ing more than the original cost.
: even though they have seen rather
i hard usage for months.
The army purchased a number oi
cars of a light popular type for ,*4sf
; each, and these have sold for v.-
; high as SI,OOO after being used eigh
! months. Another machine, th
average purchasing price for whir
was $1,085, has brought as much a
I $'1,890 at the auction sales. Thi
prices bid for touring cars hav
been absolutely amazing. Major J
C*. Weller. head of the motor trans
port work in the quartermaster de
partment here, told the Associated
Press, a great deal higher than we l
would have dared asked on straight j
| sales.
■ Altogether, the army had 592
touring cars, trucks, ambulances"
motorcycles and bicycles for its work
of transporting about 1,000,000 men
through England. Only a dozen of
these have been reserved to be used
in the final clearing out of head
quarters in London. Good prices
have been obtained for the trucks
and ambulances, exceptionally good
prices when compared with what
second-hand motors bring j n the
United States, but the greatest de
mand has been for the touring cars
motorcycles and bicycles.
Some observers place this demand
In the same category with the In
satiable desire of women for the
finest of finery at unprecedented
prices which even then the shops
cannot supply, or other luxurious
demands of people who would hard
ly have thought of such things be
fore the war.

a
of more than 450 In Cass county Is be
ing prepared for preservation as an
exhibit of the natural history of the
state.
This herd of doer which recently
came Into prominence by "moving In"
on farmers In the vicinity and de
stroying enormous quantities of corn
and other grain, Is possessed of a uni
que history, according to E. R. Har-
Lan, curator of the state historical
department.
In the early days. befor< prohibi
tion struck the state, there lived and
prospered In Cass county a farmer,
wlfo conducted a thriving business In
horse stealing as a side line. In
his pastures were three tamo deer
which he maintained as pets.
One day the other farmers of the
JUT.Y 9, 1919.
countj- held nn indignation meeting,
organized themselves Into vigilance
committee, descended upon the Ille
gitimate trader In equlnea, and from
the limb of a convenient tree the
committee hanged him by the neck
until he was dead. ,
All of which was quite In keeping
with the law and Justice of the pe
riod, but which left the three deer
without a guardian.
Under the protection of rigid gam*
laws, they lived and multiplied In a
system of pyramided progeny until
the present herd of 450 cams Into
being.
Anyway, the state of lowa has
nine of the critters to show for all
its trouble.—Ues Moines Register.
