NEW COSTUME
FOR MEN READY
Designed to Meet Require
ments of the Wage-
Earners in France
Koubaix, France, Nov. 15.—The
new "national costume" for men is
ready to be placed on the market.
The first lot is composed of 25,000
suits.
The price has been fixed at 11*
francs, as compared with 400 to 500
l'rancs now charged by tailors. The
profit of the tailor on the new "na
tional costume" Is fixed at 10 francs
a suit. The cloth is of cotton warp
with woolen filling and will range in
color from navy blue to light gray,
black, olive drab, dark and light
green. Although perhaps not adapt
ed to the needs of the professional
boulevardicr, the new costume is
expected to meet the requirements
of the wage earners and salaried
men.
Andre de Fouquieres, recognized
far several years as the French ar
biter of fashion, announced that he

How to remove them
You'd give a lot to get rid of those
distressing pimples, wouldn't you?
For you know how troublesome they
are—how tliey spoil your beauty
how often they prove embarrassing.
Klearskin —a soothing cream, pre
pared by the physicians of the Kiois
ter Laboratories, proves effective in
the treatment of pimples, blotches
and other unsightly facial eruptions.
This cream contains a medicament
of wonderful value so wonderful
that even a two-weeks' treatment
will demonstrate its merit. Klear
skin is harmless, greasless and of
flesh color does not show on the
skin and will not promote hair
growth on the face.
Pave the way for better looks. Send
$1 for a large size jar of Klearskin
and Dr. Russell's treatise —"Facial
blemishes and their removal." If
you will send your druggist's name
and address, we will include a trial
package of Intes-tone.

differ quite as much, in character and
comfort and atmosphere, as homes do. The
man who builds, and furnishes, and decorates,
and equips a hotel, selects, by the way he does
those things, his public.
The public for which Hotel Pennsylvania was built and is
operated is made up of those discriminating travelers who want
the best there is when they go to New York.
Hotel Pennsylvania is the New York home of thousands of
just such people.
This largest hotel in the world (2200 rooms, 2200 baths) has
many special features which emphasize its thoughtfulness for
your comfort. The unique "Butterfly Room" (a glass-enclosed
sun-toom on the roof) is one of them; the two complete Turkish
Bath establishments (one exclusively for women), each having its
own swimming pool, are others; the equipment of every bedroom
with the "Servidor" (an ingenious device which eliminates con
tact with servants at your bedroom door) is another. And there
are many others which you will quickly appreciate.
In Pennsylvania Station give your bag to a
Red-Cap and take elevator to Lobby of Hotel
Pennsylvania—without going out-of-doors.

would purchase one of the suits as
soon as they were placed on sale
and that he would wear it.
Much of the cloth has been manu
factured in Roubaix and Tourcoing.
In producing it the government au
thorities undertook a difficult task,
as many French manufacturers had
been stripped of their machinery by
the German invaders, money was
scarce, cotton and wool trebled or
quadrupled in price and those em
ployed in the manufacture demand
ed for a day's work wages they
would have been glad to accept as
a week's pay before the war.
Kill Strike Leaders,
Then Troubles in
Russia Always End
London, Nov. I*s.—The Commun
ist government at Petrograd has a
rather primitive but exceedingly
effective method of settling strikes
within its confines, Paul I>ukes, a j
| British secret agent, told The Asso- |
| ciated Press. They kill the leader I
I and without leaders probably no
workman in tlio world is so helpless
as the Russian.
"Labor leaders involved in a strike
have employed many ingenious
methods to hide their identity but a
largo number of them have failed
and have been seen no more," Mr.
Dukes said. "When a strike is
called the Communist government
tries to find the hidden leader. In
most cases he finally is ferretted
out and some morning the strikers
awake to find their leader gone.
Without their organization they are
ineffective and generally go back to
work under worse conditions than
when they left."
Says Forests Should
Yield More Timber
New York, Nov. 15.—American
forests are capable of yielding five
times as much timber under proper
cultivation as in their natural state,
according to Dr. Hugh P. Baker,
dean of the New York State College
of Forestry at Syracuse, in an ad
dress here before the convention of
the American Paper and Pulp As
sociation. To accomplish this re
sult in New York, he said, the State
should bond itself, if necessary, to
protect and encourage its forest in
dustries, as has been done for better
highways and a great barge canal.
HUNS FEAR FOR
TRADE SECRETS
Fear That Dye Industry Will
Become Known to the
Entente
Cobleiu, Nov. 15.—German busi
ness man liuve been worrying more
than usual recently for fear their
trade secrets will become known to
the Allies through "the gap in the
west," as the occupied area is called.
According to information reaching
the headjquarters of the American
forces in Germany, there is a feel
ing of uneasiness among the German
business men that numerous trade
secrets, including the dye industry,
which Germany has alwuys carefully
guarded, may become available to
foreign concerns through the visits
paid to German factories by Entente
economic missions.
Recent instructions published by
the Interallied Rliineland High Com
mission provide that no obstacles
shall be placed in the way of com
mercial and other missions authori
sed by the Allied and associated
governments entering German fac
tories "with the owners' consent."
These instructions confirm the
rights provided by the armistice to
search" German factories for mate
rial taken during the war from the
invaded regions of France and Bel
gium and for the supervision of
factories by the economic sections of
the armies if there should be reason
to believe that war materials are
being produced.
Bricklayer Claims
to Be Heir to Rich
Scottish Estate
Edinburgh. Scotland. Nov. 15.
John Kackstraw, a bricklayer, claim
ing to be heir to a rich Scottish es
tate, has began an effort to obtain
possession of ten square miles of
land with an annual rent roll of
$150,000. The estates concerned are
now the property of the Lennox
family of Dumbarton. The claimant
alleges that he can trace his ances
try to 15S1 and that his great-great
grandmother was a deuecdant of
Douglas, sixth Duke of Hamilton,
and a nephew of Mary Queen of
Scots.
EAJIRIBBURG TELEGRAPH
GERMANS HAVE
MORE MONEY
Circulation of Paper Currency
Shows Increase, Berlin
Bank Reports
Berlin, Nov. IB. —The Dresdener
Bunk of Berlin states that circula
tion of paper currency in Germany
amounted to 40.12 5,000,000 marks
on September 23 last, as compared
to 2,200,000,000 marks in peace
times.
The bank estimates that 15,000,-
000,000 marks of German paper
money is held abroud and that about
25,000,000,000 remains in Germany.
German industry, according to
the bank, has been held in check by
the revolution, political unrest,
strikes and unwillingness to work.
Many firms and industries .are said
to have been able to keep going only
by using their reserve funds.
The unfavorable status of the
mark in the world exchanges is at
tributed to the flood of German
money that has gone abroad to pay
for imports estimated at 1,000,000,-
000 marks since the revolution. . At
present the bank sees a tendency
toward a decrease in the number of
strikes and toward an increase in
coal production.
Droughts Are Big
Problems in Brazil
Itio tie Janeiro, Nov. 15.—One of
the most serious internal problems
with which the Brazilian govern
ment has to deal is that of relieving
the population of three states in
northeastern Brazil from the effects
l of periodic droughts. These states
—Ceara, Parahyba and Rio Grande
de Norte- —have a combined area of
91,250 square miles and a popula
tion of approximately 2,000,000. It
is officially estimated that, since
1877, more than 1,000,000 persons
and an untold number of livestock
have died from hunger and disease
as a result of these droughts.
In a message to the Brazilian con
gress, President Pessoax has called
attention to the situation. He asked
authorization for the government to
arrange loans, either domestic or
foreign, amounting to about $lO,-
000,000 a year for a period of not
more than five years, for the pur
pose of constructing reservoirs and
irrigation canals in affected region,
and for supplementary projects.
Railroading in Siberia
Is a Different Task
Omsk, Nov. 15.—John P. Stevens,
of Chicago, administrator of the
Trans-Siberian railway, has experi
enced difficulty in his efforts, with
the aid of an interallied committee,
to convert the Trans-Siberian rail
road into an efficient railway system.
Seven months have now elapsed
since he became its administrator.
One of the most serious obstacles
he encountered was the unsur
mountable objection to modern
methods of railroading, on the part
of Russians in places of authority.
The system of car distribution has
proved a stumbling block which
precluded any marked improvement
in carrying capacity. If it were pos
sible to conceive one of America's
great transcontinental systems with
local committees in each State tra
versed, committees of politicians in
no manner identified with the actual
railway management, vested with
authority to distribute freight cars
as they choose without any control'
by the railway management, one
might find a parallel with the actual
situation in Siberia.

The Little Shepherd of Kingdom
come, now playing at one of New
forks largest theaters for an indefi
nite run, is slated to come to Harris

It has also been adopted to motion
ptctures and will be the next release

the public.
DEMAND CENSOR'S APOLOGY
Because patrons of an East Orange
Theater were severely censored by a
councilman of that town because he
deemed the movies were indecent,
they have demanded a written apol
ogy from him. They also ask that he
retract his statement throuh the
newspapers, according to a storv
contained in this week's Issue of a
trade paper.
WANT MOVIE THEATER
Residents of Ware. Mass., are suf
fering from the cold weather. They
fiiave presented a petition to council
signed by about 500 people asking for
a permit to have the "movies" opened
there on Sunday so they can have a
place to keep warm. The petition is
now being considered.

the motion picture devotees of Broad
way, was opened recently. The
Capitol Is the most expensive, the
handsomest and the largest theater
in the world. It has a seating ca
pacity of 5,300. Not only have the
owner and financiers of this massive

theater In the World, but the most I
comfortablet. The mezzanine prom-1
enadc alone is several hundred feet:
long and is faced on ail sides with
large heavy cushioned seats. The
management of this new creation de-I
cided the old style orchestra was no
longer in vogue for a motion picture 1
theater, so Arthur Prior was engaged,
to conduct his famous symphony
band for the shows.
