Aside from the favorable attraction, commercially, by those wearing diamonds, they form an investment that is sec ond to few, indeed. They have successfully weathered every depression without a single break in price. The constant in crease in value has been remarkable. Ten years ago you could have bought them for half, or less, of what they cost today. Where it is not the desire of our customers to pay all cash, we are glad to extend our partial payment plan, where by yotii' purchase can be paid for with the least inconvenience.

The constant use of rouge and pow der Invites a coarsened, roughened condition of the skin, eruptions, en larged pores and wrinkles, if you're learned this from experience, suppose you quit cosmetics and try what I rec ommend. Ask your druggist, for an ounce of or dinary’ mercoiized wax and begin using this tonight. Apply like cold cream, washing it off in the morning. Keep this up for a week or two. The wax will literally absorb the coarse, color less or blemished top skin, but so grad ually as not to discommode, you at all. Just as gradually the clear, velvety, naturally-tinted underskin comes to the surface. And mercoiized wax be comes your everlasting friend. For those wrinkles and large pores, make a face bath by dissolving an ounce of powdered saxolite in a half pint witch hazel. This has remarkable astringent and tonic properties, and beneficial results come quickly. t Special Values in Sterling Candlesticks These candle sticks ate 8 3-4 inches high, Colo j nlal in design, heavy and hand some.
