Hairs Quickly Vanish
After This Treatment
(Helps to Beauty)
, Science has aided in simplifying the
banishing of hairy growths from the
face, and according to a beauty spe
cialist, the most effective treatment
yet devised consists of applying a
rielatone paste to the hairy surface
for 2 or 3 minutes. The paste is made
by mixing some water with a little
powdered delatone. When this paste
is removed and the skin washed every
trace of hair has vanished Be sure to
get real delatone.—Advertisement.

Operations In Poland have been
relegated to secondary importance as
both ih*« Russians and the Germans
have withdrawn all their available

hosts in the Carpathians.
Having taken .Smolnik, the Russian

Fighting in tjie Carpathians Is be
ing < arried on under tremendous dif
ficulties The spell of favorable
weather mentioned in official dis
patches lias given way to snow and
co| ( j fogs, which render artillery op
erations extremely difficult. Despite
the natural handicap, however, the
I Russians are continually increasing
i their pressure. The Russians have
j the advantage of more trooiw than
: tip enemy, consequently the Austrian
■ soldiers are on the verge of complete
exhaustion from the constant fighting
! which has been carried on by day and
night.

On the border ’of Ress-Arahia and

"As Chicago is one of the great
est centers of German culture in

popular, hie defeat gives proof of
the indignation caused in America

WASHINGTON, April Villa is
winning against Obregon. This is the
significant news wired to the State
Department by Special Agent Caroth-
ers from Iraapuato under date of
April 7 and made public to-day by
the .State Department. The northern
chieftain, leading a force of 15,000
men, has driven back 20,000 Carran-
zistas. Carothers reports a short
skirmish, after which Obregon’s
forces retreated, and he thought it
probable that they would make a
stand at Queretaro. Reports brought
to Villa headquarters on Wednesday
indicated that the Carranzistas also
had withdrawn the force which they
sent recently against Guadalajara.
The American troops at Laredo are
to-day on guard against possible vio
lations of neutrality in the fighting
between the Carranzistas and the
Vllllstas for possession of Neuvo La
redo In case the Villistas are forced
to be.^iege that town.
Both Factions Warned.
Both factions have been warned
against firing into American territory
and the Carranzista leaders have
promised that thev would meet the
enemy several miles from town and
give battle there.

Washington for the repeal of the j

the general feeling In the North and I
East with 'reference to the measure I
was that it should by all means be I
allowed to remain on the statute j
books at least during*the strained j
condition of the financial condition of
the country coincident to the war, so
as to permit those who have been
forced out of business a chance to
dispose of their assets and make a
fresh start.
The Senator was given a rising vote
of thanks by the convention at the

and the powerful Influence which the
Government has Brought to bear on
the national banks in supporting the
newly devised Government agency
and attacked those who he declared
were against the establishment of the
reserve banks in the critical period
which faced the United States at the
outbreak of the war.
"We went ahead and put through the
reserve bank system,' he declared,
‘‘and that it was for the good of the
people already has been shown in the
development of the system. The re
serve banks we created to save the
people from possible financial panic,
and there was no politics in it. We
now have a gold balance of nearly
$300,000,000 in the Federal reserve
bank. We have this gold against
whi<*h we can issue $800,000,000 paper
under the reserve bank system.
Profits of System.
"The profits of the Federal reserve
banks are, of course, taken for the
benefit of the Government directly
from the national banks. We forced
them to enter into the reserve bank
chain; we forced their profits for the
reserve banks, and in turn these prof
its are turned back to the people. The
reserve bank system undoubtedly
helps the member banks and It is a
system of the greatest financial ben
efit to the whole majority of the peo
ple that has ever been devised. It
saved the country in the recent crisis,
I know.
"The United States is fast removing
its financial debt with the European
powers, and now’ instead of our send
ing gold from the banking centers
abroad they are sending it to us.”
President Wilson, his Cabinet., and
members of both branches of the na
tional assembly, the Senator declared,
have passed through one of the most
constructive sessions of Congress In
its history. The obstacles which so
handicapped the nation last August,
he continued, have been removed.
Touching on the ship purchase bill,
the »Senator said he was very anxious
to see the passage of the bill author
izing the creation of a $40,000,000 cor
poration for the purchase of vessels
with which to transport the products
of the country to the nations abroad.
Voted for U. S. Commerce.
"It was to back up our international
commerce and I voted for it,” he said.
"I voted in its favor because it was
fbr the benefit of the people and par
ticularly of the South and Georgia."
Following the close of his speech.
Senator Smith was asked by Lee Wy
lie, of Savannah, former State presi
dent of the Travelers’ Protective As
sociation, to lend his influence in
