Face Peelir1g
At Home
(From Ladies Fayorite Magazine,

ANY woman nowadays may quickly
rejuvenate her complexion at home by
a safe and painless process of gentle
absorption. The days of expensive
and dangerous Operations are pa
and each woman can be her own
beauty doctor. 1t has been discov-
cred that ordinary mercolized wax
applied like cold cream at night, will
cause the thin veil of life1ess, saIlow
or blotchy cuticle to gently flake off
in invisible. flour-like particles, re-
Y ing the fresh, vigorous and beau
tiiul young skin underneath. The wax
absorbs only the unhealthy and I'M
slightly outer film and does not affect
the healthy tissue at all.
The process defies detection and
unveils a lasting and beautiful COM
plexion which is. of course. a per-
fectly natural one. For this purpose
thousands of women are now using
mercolized wax which may be OBJ
tanned at any drug store. Naturally
the process also removes all such sur
face blemishes as freckles, brooches,
pimples. tan, liver spots, etc. 1t
makes the face look years younger
and prettier and renders the use of
face creams unnecessary.

From all that developed Saturday it
is probable that someone became pre-

whole lot of excitement over the be-

this does not alter the fact that the
congregation was thrown into a panic
and as thoroughly frightened as was

TWomey has no revolver, and any
that he may have discarded between
the time of his exit from the church
and his arrest has not been found.
