for wrinkles and other imperfections Of
the complexion, but none had yet sue
cceded until the Misses Bell, the now fam
Gus Complexion Specialists, of Is Fifth
Avenue, New York City, offered the pub
lie their wonderful Complexion Tonic.
The reason so many failed to make this
discovery before is plain, because they have
not followed the right principle. Bolms,
Creams, Lotions, etc, never have tonic
effect upon the skin, hence the failures.
The Misses Bells Complexion Tonic has
most exhilarating effect upon the cuticle,
absorbing and carrying off all impurities
which the blood by its natural action is
constantly forcing to the surface of the
skin. 1t is to the skin what vitalizing
tonic is to the blood and nerves, kind of
new life that Immediately exhilarates and
strengthens wherever applied. Its tonic
effect is felt almost Immediately, and it
speedily banishcs forever from the skin
freckles, pimples, blackhcads, moth
patches, wrinkles, liver spots, roughness,
oiliness, eruptions, and discolorations of
any kind.

Beginning with Monday of this week
the northern Atlantic coast has had a
touch of winter. With snow on Monday
and light blizzard on Tuesday outdoor life

attempted but was cold sport and on We'd
nesday the warm sun at midday melted in
the roads, though many are yet sleighing.
In some places the roads are banked yet
making travel difficult. Still ours is bet
ter lot than that of many in other localities.
ParaIyzed and frozen, the city of Boston
lay for eight hours helpless on the rack Of
the terrors of the worst New England storm

and their crews are drifting to the sands as
silent corpses. one by one. Throughout
the interior of New England slowly come
stories of the horrors of Monday nights and

thing terrible is just beginning to be known.
