By United Press NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 17.

Tonight the Krewe of Comus will parade through the city, their route being lighted by hundreds Puts New Life Into Dull, Tired, Faded Skin Just a little Calonite powder sprinkled on a wet cloth and rubbed gently over the face before retiring will clear the pordS of all dirt and dust and oily accumulation, preventing blackheads. It puts new life into dull, tired skini so you will enjoy a good night’s rest. —Advertisement.
