of re-oiganization that would take th’i
Kansas ity. M xico and Orient rail-
lead out of eight ye:u's of receivership
is ready for submission to federal court
at Topeka says the Kansas City Times
today.

receiver for the Client property Clif-
ford His ted lawyer and winning bid-
der at the sale of the road last spring

Thi . plan for reorganization has bser
crutinized by members of the inter-

Unit'd States treasury whose interests
lie in an indebtedness of the Ori -nt to
the government of approximately $2-
500.000 the Times says. The plan is

Yesterday’s Answer j
Clears
Complexion
“Oh ! how clear and beautiful your
complexion is today my dear!”
THERE is a certain joy—a certain
pride—in knowing you are ad-
mired whether it be from father
brother husband or sweetheart! And !
back of that joy is the satisfaction i
of knowing all is well.
Men are fascinated by the charms
of beauty. Women gaze with envy
secretly jealous. perhaps wondering
—hoping—praying for that attrac-
tiveness which is not theirs. But why
the wondering — the hoping — the
praying for that craved for attrac-
tiveness—that clear skin—that beau-
ty. A clear skin—is the barometer
of one’s condition. A healthy skin
radiates beauty. Pure clean blood
means a clear skin.
S.S.S. is waiting to help you. It
will rid your blood of its impuri-
ties and give you that clear com-
plexion. Since 1826 S.S.S. has been
ridding people of blood impurities
from pimples fi’om blackheads boils
eczema and from rheumatism too.
Because S.S.S. is made from fresh
herbs and barks it may be taken with
perfect safety. Try it yourself. You
will not only look better but you will i
feel better too.
S.S.S. is sold at aT! good drug |
stores in two sizes. The larger size ;
it more economical.
