At the cost of a small jar of
ordinary cold cream one can pre-
pare a full quarter pint of the
most wonderful lemon skin soft-
ener and complexion heautifier,
by squeezing the juice of two
frdsh lemons into a bottle con-
taining three ounces of orchard
white. Calc should be taken to
strain the juice through a fine
cloth so no lemon pulp gets in,
then this lotion will keep fresh
for months. Every woman kqows
that lemon juice is used to bleach
and remove such blemishes as
freckles, sallowness and tan and
is the ideal skin softener, whiten-
er and beautifier.
Just try it! Get three ounces
of orchard white at any drug
store and two lemons from the
grocer and make up a quarter
pint of this sweetly fragrant
lemon lotion and massage it daily
into the face, neck, arms and
hands. It is marvelous to
smoothen rough, red hands No2

The Alabama aggregation of color-
ed minstrels reached Beaumont yes-
terday, traveling in two special cars,
from ^successful tour through East
Texas, and opened an engagement
under ihcir own canvas last night at
the Frisco fair grounds, on Fannin
street.
The Alabama is the first genuine
negro minstrel of the old school to
visit Beaumont in a long time, and
that the performance put up last
night in the way of songs and danc-
ing was appreciated was shown by
the fact that the management had
to turn large crowds away. Such a
decided success was scored, in fact,
that the management cancelled its
date at Port Arthur for today and
will again show here tonight with an
entirely new biflfe—Beaumont Enter-

FEEL LIKE GIVING UP?
Many Medford People on
Verge of Collapse
A bad back makes you miser-
able all the time—
Lame every morning; sere all
day.
It hurts to stoop—:it hurts to
straighten.
What with headaehe, dizzy
spells, urinary weakness.
No wonder people are discour-
aged,
Who do not know the kidneys
may be the cause of it all
Give tlie weakened kidneys
needful help.
Use a tested and proven kid-
ney remedy
None endorsed like Doan’s
Kidney Pills.
II C McConnell, Cherokee Ave,
Medford, says: “My kidneys
were weak and inflamed and
when I went to bed, I often had
to get up again to pass the kid-
ney secretions, which were scanty
and burning iin passage. This,
and the pains in my back kept
me as miserable as I could he.
Ait times my back became so sore
and stiff that I feared to stoop
over, for it was mighty painful
for me to straighten up again. I
was advised to take Doan’s Kid-
ney Pills and I bought some at
the Neal Drag Co. They certain-
ly did me a world of good, for
the pains disappeared and my
kidneys began to get twuik to
their normal condition.. I only
took one box of Doan’s Kidney
Pills when the symptoms left me.
I was cured permanently and
have not been troubled in that
way for over a year.’’
Price 60c at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—
get Doan’s Kidney Pill*—the
same that cured Mr McConnell.

CALOMEL SALIVATES
AND MAKES YOU SICK
Acts like dynalmite on a sluggish
liver and you lose a
day’s work
There’s no reason why a person
riiould take sickening, salivating
calomel when 50 cents buys a
large bottle of Dodson’s Liver
Tone—a perfect substitute for
calomel.
It is a pleasant, vegetable li-
quid which will start your Uvct
just as surely as calomel, but it
doesn’t make you sick and can
not salivate.
Children and grown folks can
take Dodson’s Liver Tone, be-
cause it is perfectly harmless.
Calomel is a dangerous drug.
It is mercury and attacks your
bone*. Take a dose of nasty •
omel today and you will feel
weak, sick -and nauseated tomor-
row. Don’t lose a day’s work.
Take a spoonful of Dodson’s Liv
ver tone instead and you wil
wake up feeling great. No more
biliousness, constipation, sluggish
ness, headaches, coated tongue or
sour stomach. Your druggist
says if you don’t find Dodson’s
Liver Tone acts better than hor-
rible calomel your money is wait-
ing for you. 3
Tells How to Loosen a Tender
Corn or Callus so it Lifts
Out Without Pain
You rockless men and women
who are pestered with corns and
who have at least once a week
invited an awful death from lock-
jaw or blood poison are now told
by a Cincinnati authority to use
a drug called freezone, which
the moanerut a few drops are ap-
plied to any corn or callus the
soreness is relieved and soon the
entire corn or callus, root and
all, lifts off with the fingers.
Freezone dries the moment it1
is applied, and simply shrivels
the corn or callus without in-
flaming or even irritating tha
surrounding tissue or skin. A
small bottle of freezone will cost
very little at any of the drug
stores but will positively rid one’s
feet of every hard or soft corn
or hardened callus. If your drug
gist hasn’t any freezone he can
get it at any wholesale drug
house for you. No 1
