A New, Harmless Way to Banish Hairy Growths (Beauty Topics) By following this suggestion any woman can, in the privacy of her own home, remove every trace of hair or fuzz from her face: With powdered dela tone and water mix enough paste to cover the not wanted hairs; apply and in 2 or 3 minutes rub off and wash the skin. This method is unfailing, harm less and quick in results, but care should be employed to get the genuine dela tone. —Adv. I The Daily Fashion Hint. I,' ' J&k.

C., March 26. During the summer of 1914 the Dc- j partment of Commerce, through the Bureau of Fisheries, conducted an ex- j ploration of certain libiierv grounds , off the counts of Oregon and Washing- j ion to determine, particularly, if hali- \ but were present in sufficient quan- | tjties to support a fishery. The fishery j steamer Albatross was used for this survey. The survey covered, as well as j time permitted, the area inshore of the J 10-0-fathoni curve, from .just north ot'j <!rays Harbor, Wash., nearly to Oape ! Blanco, Ore. A halibut ground of some value was | found off Newport, Ore., covering an area of approximately 2£o square miles. The run of fish on this bank reaches its maximum in August and j September, but apparently l is of com mercial importance as early as June, \ and probably some halibut could be taken in the latter part of April. As nu immediate result of the Albatross j findings, fishermen made 21. tri |»s to j the ground, taking about 850,000 ; pounds of halibut, valued at about i 324,000. Trips yielding 40,000 pounds ! were made in four days or less. Irre- j speetive of the abundance of fish, j weather conditions and the lack of harbors will inhibit fishing excepting ] from April to October. Several small- i er are:us oil' Grays Harbor and Coos i bay may be expected to produce hali but in limited numbers; and the en- I tire coast of Oregon was found to 1 abound in flounders, soles, rock cod 1 and black cod—a valuable food sup- 1 ply when market conditions warrant its exploitation. / The report on the with charts, will soon be issued and i may be obtained on application to the I Bureau of Fisheries.

Watts, local manager of the j Bell Telephone Company of Penusylva- ! uia, delivered an illustrated lecture' last ' evening before the Men's Business As sociation of Newport, his subject being "The Growth of a Great -Modem Util ity." Mr. Watts delivered a lecture several weeks ago on "The Telephone Girl" before this ,ame organization and they were so well pleased »hat they request- ! ed a return engagement. The audience, which taxed the capacity of the hall,' demonstrated the popularity of these f lectures on the science of telephony. I Mr. Watts dealt principally with the ! history of the telephone from the date I of invention down to the present time, with its modern appliances which make I possible a conversation from ocean to I ocean. Kxcellent slides were shown of the Harrisburg exchange, outside eon-1 Btruction in the Harrisburg district and i Various scenes in connection with the j ihstallation of telephones and the estab- Mshment of service. A brief history j was given of the men who have been ■ responsible in a great measure for-the j rapid growth of this modern utility, all J Of whom are living to-day. That which was especially interest- ' ing to the- audience was to learn the | manner in which repairs are made to ; lines on which trouble has occurred, i The use of motor trucks has greatly fa cilitated these repairs, which are made promptly, regardless of weather condi tions and the distance trouble may be from an exchange.

The best thing for steady use is j j j just drdiuary inulsified cocoanut oil |i (which is pure and greaseless), is 1 ; cheaper and better than soap or anV II thing else you can use. j | One or two teaspoonfuls will \ 11 cleanse the hair and scalp thorough ly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an j abundance of rich, creamy lather, ! which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves the scalp soft, and the hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at any pharmacy, and a few > ounces will supply every member of the family for months.

FIRM SOLD 500 AUTO TRUCKS International Company's Sales In crease So Much That New Depart ment Is Opened in This District More than five hundred Interna tional motor trucks are used in the Harrisburg general agency district aud the increasing demand for these trucks, together with models "M" and "E" added, necessitated the es tablishment of the new department known as the International motor truck department at 619 Walnut stroot, in charge of C. J. Stevens. Business firms now recognize the fact that without now trade thoir business will decline and horse drawn delivery will limit a firm to a restrict ed territory, while a motor truck per mits a large expansion of trude, and the International are constantly plac ing motor trucks with progressive firms who are serving customers throughout the cities and suburban towns, which trade would bo other wise lost. The smaller firms formerly held to the idea that the motor truck was only practical for the larger concerns, but t-hcy liiave now broadened their views, lost that business timidity, and are purchasing as a matter of economy and expansion of trade. The responsibility of the manufac turer, the service facilities of the sell ing department and the figures on which are based the claims for econ omy are regarded to-day as the most vital considerations by" the purchas ers. Many owners of International mo tor trucks report their experience in penetrating extreme conditions of roads such as deep mud, heavy snow drifts, such as are considered" almost impassible for horse service. Instances of this nature only remind tho pros pective buyer of the fact that the International motor trucks are thor oughly reliable for twelve months service each year, regardless of weath er or road conditions.

This was shown by the de mand for seats and it is a certainty that the charming comedy will be un folded by Miss Adams aud the mem bers of lier company before an audi ence that will fill the house. Some plays will never grow old!, threadbare and worn and "Quality Street" seems to belong to their number. Barrio is purely a sentimentalist with a well de- ( veloped sense of humor in this play and as sontimenfr-can never depart from tho world and humor will always be en joyed he gave to his work ingredients that will always keep it fresh and fas cinating. Another thing that tends to pormit the play holding its popularity is the fact that in it Miss Adams has one of the most charming and diverting roles that has ever been given her. It is a quaint, lovable, eerie little lady that she presents as Phoebo Throssell, trim and just as Puritanical as the little vil lage in which she lived in the long ago. But Phoebo had a heart and she lost it to Valentine Brown. Barrie pictures their love as a garden. In the first act he shows one glimpse of the garden; in the second one sees how the garden grew; in the third a woed attacks the garden and in the fourth it is shown how the flowers drove the weed' from the garden. Of course, Miss Adafns will be seen as Phoebe Throssell.

This season, as in former seasons, it has been the aim of the management to wind up the vaudeville term in a very excellent manner, mak ing the last shows the best shows, so that vaudeville appetite will be kept in splendid tone all during the heated term. This year accordingly is no ex ception to the rule. The ideal works out beautifully in the current offering, which vaudeville patrons on every hand are declaring to be one of the sea son's choicest. Next week we are to see the fa mous actress, Henrietta Crosman, star ring in a wonderful drama entitled "Thou Shalt Not Kill." Miss Cros man will be supported by a noteworthy array of big Keith names. For tho next couple weeks lieadliners, just as interesting, are promised. So the slo gan to vaudeville fans to-day, is get in line and see this week's show at the Or pheuin, and don't miss any nf the last few that are to follow. For the man agement promises these last few weeks to be the cream of tho season. It will be interesting to note that the Eight Royal Dragoons, that Ralph Dunbar presents this week as the headline at traction, also sent the Nine Royal Hus sars to the Orpheum last year as the ! headliner of the season's last bill. There is a striking similarity between ' these two acts and' last year the Ilus- Isars were widely discussed as being tho ; best headline attraction of the season.
