How to Safely
Peel Your Face
(From Beauty Culture.)

II you have a muddy. sallow, or
blotchy complexion. the most sensible
thing to do Is to remove it-rather than
to patch 1t over or doctor II with any
cosmetic, rouge, or lotion. The only
way to really remove the complexion
aside from resorting to an expensive
and painful surgical operation-is by
means Of ordinary mercoiized wax.
Spread the wax over the face, as you
would cold cream, washing II of In the
morning. This gradually absorbs the
lifeless and the half-dead outer skin.
in minute, almost invisible PARTICLES
and gradually the fresh young skin be-
meath beams forth. Then you have a
clear, smooth, velvety, healthy-hued
complexion, such as no unnatural meth
cd can possibly produce.
Surface defects due to weather. Ill
health, or the ravages OF time, OF
course disappear with the discarded
skin Ask the druggist for an OUNCE
Of pure mercolized wax. This 10 usually
sufficient. -

SERVED WITH THE UNION ARMY
Had Been in Feeble Health Since He
Left the Soldiers Home Several
Years Ago and Weakness May Have
Caused Fatal Fall.

Peter Amen, aged 81 years, a resi-
dent of Kenosha off and on for more
than fifty years, was instantly killed
at the home of his daughter just before
twelve o'clock Friday when he fell down
"a flight of stairs breaking his neck,
The old man had been in very feeble
health for several days, but short
time before the accident he had talked
with his daughter, Mrs. B. Schroeder,
and seemed to be in better health than
he had been for some time. The ac-
cident came just as the other members
of the family were in the kitchen of
the house preparing the noon day meal
Mr.. Amen had shown signs Of mental
weakness this morning and his daughter
had taken him and put him to bed in
his bedroom. Later he had requested
that some matches be sent to him and
his granddaughter, Gertrude Schroeder,
took the matches to him. There was no
one in the room with him when he took
his fatal plunge into the stairway.
Mrs. Schroeder and the other members
of the family were in room
on the ground floor of the building
when he fell and although they hurried
to his assistance and called physicians
nothing could be done as the old man
had died instantly. The remains were
removed to the Mischler and Stanton
morgue and a jury will be called to
investigate the case later in the day.
The deceased was widely known
among the older German residents of
the city. He was born in Germany,
April l, 1917. During his young man
hood he served for three years as a
soldier in the German army. In 1850
he came to this country and settled in
Chicago and for seven years worked as
a carpenter. In 1857 he came to this
city and for years worked as car
penter contractor. With the break
ing out Of the civil war he entered the
army as a member of Company G of the
Ninth Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry
and he served to the close of the war.
In 1886 he went to the Soldiers Home
in Milwaukee, where he remained for
more than twenty years About a year
ago ne came to Kenosha to make his
home with his daughter Since that
time he had been in failing health.
He is survived by four daughters,
Mrs. B. Schroeder Of Kenosha, Mrs.
Henry Christnian, Mrs. Frank Miller,
both of Chicago, and-Mrs. A. Bruckner
of Forest Park, III. The deceased was
a member of the Fred S. Lowell Post
of the Grand Army Of the Republic
and had taken an active interest in
the work Of the veterans, of the war
in former years.

SEEK MISSING NEGRO.
May be Able to Give Some Facts in
Regar to Burglaries.

The police Of the city are following
an unusual cleW in connection with the
search for the burglars who entered
the home of Charles Turnock on Mon
day night and every effort is now be-
ing made to find an unknown negro who
dropped into the lime light when he fell
out of the hay loft of the barn Of John
Mulligan on Tuesday night. The own
err of the barn had no idea that the
negro had been sleeping in the barn
until he rolled out of the open door of
she loft and fell to the ground below.
1t was fall of some seven feet, but
evidently the negro was not injured as
he jumped up and took to his heels
and since that time no one has been
able to find him. The police think it
possible that the negro had committed
the burglary and had hidden in the hay
loft awaiting a chance to better make
his escape.

WOMEN START MOVEMENT.
Catholic Women Will Provide Places
Where Women Can Spend Vacations.

Several Catholic women and teachers
OF Chicago have inaugurated an inter
esting movement in the Catholic Wom-
an S Vacation club. The organization
was started only last May and already
has down Office in Chicago and va
cation club house iii South Haven, Mich
The enterprise is certainly praise
worthy and should be supported
Many of our young women run great
risks during the vacation period while
at summer resorts, Others remain at
home because of the difficulty in finding
suitable boarding places. Tt is encour-
aging to note that the organization of
which Miss Anna Fitzgerald of Chica-
go is president, has been successful
from the start and likewise that foun-
dation plan to build and operate their
own club house at a no distant date,
has been started. It might not be amiss
for the Catholic ladies of our own CITY
to inquire as to the methods of these
pioneer vacationists and found an af-
filiated or independent vacation home
for themselves.

Smooth Swindlers swindle
Luigi Ceseri Out of $3.50
By Unusual Plan
GIVES SAVINGS FOR OLD PAPER
(From fridays Daily

AOAAA L A1Ntesy Ao4AJ u
Luigi Ceseri an Italian residing at
lis Rowland avenue was film falned
out OF $26g in good hard American
money by Two smooth fellow country
men this morning and they managed to
get away and the police are still eager
ly seeking them.
Ceseri is employed at the plant of
the Simmons Manufacturing company
and by hard work he had laid aside
the $500 which proved such an easy
bait for the swindlers. Ceseri was 60
ing to work just after seven O'Clock
this morning when he met two wei
addressed him in his mother tongue
and asked him if they could direct him
to his own home. The men claimed
that they had been sent to him by a
priest in western city and that the
priest had advised them that he was
a man of affairs and man who would
be willing to aid them. The men then
made arrangements for Ceseri to stay
away from work during the day and
then went to his home and completed
the arrangements to get his money.
The two men explained to Ceseri that
they had $4,000 i'll Italian money which
had been sent to them by express from
San Francisco, but that they were I'M
able to get 1t changed into American
money at any of the banks of Keno
sha. The men declared that they
would be willing to turn over to Ceseri
the sum of thousand dollars for $500.
He took the bait and declared that
he did not have this money, but con-
sulting his bank book he found that he
had the $3.50 and he decided that he
would give this amount for the thous-
and. The men took it and then they
sent Ceseri to the bank to get the
money and when he returned they sent
him to the express office to get the
package containing the $4,000. The
men remained at the home of Ceseri
and as soon as their victim had start
ed for the express office they fed.
Ceseri went the express office but
failed to find any package awaiting
him and he went directly to the police
Office and complained that he had been
swindled.
AS means Of Identification the two
men had given Ceseri package which
he was to give to the man in charge
of the express office. When this pack
age was opened at the police office it
was found to contain pile of old news
papers. Ceseri could not give the
names Of the two men, but he gave the
police fair description of them. From
their methods of work it is declared
that the men are old time workers and
it is thought that there will be little
chance for the police to get hold Of
them. While Ceseri was on. his way to
the police station and the express office
a half dozen trains went out of
Kenosha and the men might have
caught any one of these trains and
made good their escape.
The police believe that they had
some confederate in Kenosha who was
aware of the fact that the Kenosha
Italian had the money in the bank and
that this confederate pointed out Ce-
seri to the men before they approach
ed him.
Officers in other cities have been
asked to make an effort to locate the
two men, but the police have little hope
that they will be captured.
