My mother was rich and ambi tious. She went with me to search the world for the greatest beauty helps in existence. They cost us a fortune and many years of time. , But they made me a famous beauty. ' I became the rage. And now, at the age of 62, they keep me a beau ty still. 1 I have seen those same beauty I I helps bring to many plain girls mul- [ < tiplied attractions. To some they br<ught careers of beauty. I have seen them bring countless women - decades of added youth. So now I have placed these matchless helps at every woman’s call. And I am do’ ing my best to urge women to em ploy them. • You Need But Four. I found 32 beauty helps. But French experts combined them in four preparations. So these re sults came very easy to me. One is a super-clay. Not like the ciude and muddy clays you read about today. This clay is white, re fined'and dainty.- It has been per fected by 20 years of scientific study. I cal] it my White Youth Clay. Before I found it, 1 ireverf knew one-tenth what clay could ! do. Clay is a beauty essential. It purges the skin of all that clogs or J mars it. It creates a rosy glow 7 firms the skin,>combats al! li' and wrinkles, reduces enlai (•.<-! pores. Jt has brought to millions new trim ‘ plexions. But my Whit- i. nth Clay vastly excels the old type ■. The cast js 50 cents and sl. My Youth Cream My Youth Cream -ombir.es both lemon and strawberry.

One of the most enjoyable events of Hallowe'en night .was ths parly at which Josephine Howard was hostess at her lovely country home an the bee street road Throughout the house’ dimly lighted Jack-olantarns and orange shifted lights were used. Every thing suggestive of Hallowe’en was to be seen. Autumn leaves, yellow flowers and novelties of all sorts were used in decoration, making the house indeed a place enchant ment. / Late in the evening marshmal lows and wein.trs were roasted by a'large camp-fire in the back yard, ;nd delicious cake and candies were served. The hostess was assisted in in tertwining by Mrs. Charles Smith am’. Mrs. Find’ey. The guest list included Julia Westbrook, Virginia Legg, Mary Charlotte Tyson, Mildred Cowart, Jessie Cursey, Frances Reed, Lou ise Cox, Irma Cox, James McDaniel, Edwin Smith, Percy Hudson and Mac Howard. EAST CHURCH AND PRINCE SEWING CIRCLE TO MEET The members of the East Church and Prince Street Sewing circle are requested’to meet Wednesday aft ernoon at 3 o’clock at the home of Mrs. J. F. Monohan on Church street. - Every member is urgently requested to be present. ♦* ¥ \ MRS. SMITHWICK HOSTESS AT LUNCHEON FOR VISITOR. Mrs. IL W. Smithwick was host ess at, an informal luncheon Mon day at the Tea Room, honoring Mrs. Henry A. Priest, of Orange, Mass., who is visiting her sister, Mrs. H. E. Allen, on Lee street. The center of the table was traced by a crystal basket filled with bright yellow cosmos, and at firms the skin, combats all lines and I use it after the clay. Also as a night cream, also daytimes as a powder base. I am 'never without it, to whiten, soften, feed and sinooth the skin. I have never known another cold cream to bring comparable results. My Youth Cream costs 60 cents. My Facial Yorith is a liquid clean ser which does what nothing else' can do. The greatest beauty ex perts now' employ this formula, but they charge for it a price which few can pay. Facial Youth contains no animal, no vegetable fat. The skin' cannot absorb it. It simply cleans to the depths, then departs. All the re fuse, grjme and dirt go with it. No other method cleans the skin like Facial Youth. The cost is 75c. My Wonderful Hair Millions of women envy my hair. 1 It is tl- : ’ ilky and luxuriant. I have had dandruff or falling hair, never a touch of gray. The reason lies jn my Hair Youth. I apply it daily with an eye dropper directly to the scalp. It removes the hardened-oil and dandruff which Tstifle the hair roots. It stimulates I and fertilizes. You will be amaz ed to se e how hair thrives when the scalp is kept in shape. My Hail- Youth costs 50 cents and $! with eye-dropper. The results com- quickly. I hope you will learn what it means to your hair. To those four products I owe my beauty and my youth. Now' all druggists and toilet counters sup ply them to all who want like re mits. For the sake of ail you prize most, go learn what they can do. Edna Wallace Hopper.
