Successful Complexion
 Renewing Treatment
Journal of Hygiene)

treatment for sallow, muddy or blotchy eomplexions that is always successful is the mighty application of plain mercolized wax for from one to two weeks. This method is sure to succeed for the simple reason that it literally takes off and discards the old complexion. The mercolide in the wax possesses the peculiar property of absorbing the wornout faded or dis colored surface skin, with all it's inn perfect1onS- This is done so gradual ", the skin coming off a little each
 day in fine, almost invisible particles.
 that no inconvenience or discomfort Is experienced-and the most careful
 observer cannot detect the use of this
 treatment.
 The mercoliZed wax which can be
 had at any drug store, is applied the
 same as cold cream, but not rubbed
 in, and washed off in the morning

THE RIGHT TO DISCIPLINE.

Two of the constant menaces to au- tcraobile plea surfing is the fool dog and the needless. unattended children.
 A New London automobilist was driving his car slowly through Bank street the other day when a swear old boy, who was hanging on the tail- board of feed wagon. dropped off there and brought up right in front of the automobile. Only great skill saved the boy from being killed on the spot.
 'sNursie'' in letter to The Bulle- ttn's Social Corner, last week, com plained because nurses were not per n1itted to discipline their infantile charges and make them mind; and she very properly asked what a nurse could do if in charge of an infant and discbedient child, if the larger child ran into the street where she would De in danger of being crippled or killed by automobiles.
 This is a predicament confronted in almost every place; and one which surely could be prevented by proper discipline.
 The Hartford Courant, in comment Ing upon the New London case, says:
 We are waiting to see if there is a driver Of wagon or automobile who has the sand to do his duty when such conditions next develop. It's plain what he should do. He ought to get right put og his vehicle, whatever it may be, catch the boy, and give him a sound licking That done, the little fellow would never catch behind on a. wagon again. Other boys hearing what was done to him, would be afraid, too, and one great source of death would be removed.
 That is the theory. and it is sound as far as 1t goes, but that is not it's full length. What would happen to the wise punisher? Why, in all probability the angry parent of the boy would have him arrested for assault and bat tery, bring him before the court, and, likely enough, get him fined, if not inn prisoned. It has to be confessed that the drivers course would be taking the law into his own hands, which everybody denounces, but it would do a heap of sood.'
 Automobilists and those who have the street care of small children without authority to discipline them, will most cordially commend The Courant's ideas; and The Bulletin is not sure 3. rational justice would not apprQVe.

THE BULLETINS DAILY STORY
IT'S A BOON

, that he'll end his days in a padded cell, and then, when it's too late, per haps the supreme court will pass l law defining the powers of agents and sending them all to prison.
 Poor Mrs. Sparks was here last evening and she cried as though her heart would break when she told me Of her husbands troubles. It used 10 be that he would buy things from agents only about once a month, but his character has been undermined by his SufIerlngs, and Pm afraid his mind is unsettled-which is no wonder, for everything he buys either explodes or poisons somebody. The other day Mrs. Sparks complained that there were annoyance to careful housewife, which I have reason to know, ants having ruined some of the best pies l
 ever made. Well, after making her more about it, that being the way with women, as they have so much to oc- cupy their minds, but a day or two Ia ter MT Sparks came into the house fairly beaming with happiness, bring ing 8 tin box of powder that he had bought of an agent, and the box looked just like the one you have in your hand now.
 Mrs. Sparks had her doubts, as she knows what agents are like. with their professors. but she thought there could be no harm in trying the powder, which was warranted to expe1 all in sectivorous parasites. to use the Ian eUage on the box. She followed direc- tons and poured the powder around
 the house, and To and behold. all the ants and bugs and grasshoppers with in a hundred miles made a beeiine for
 the Sparks home, and fairly drove the family outdoors. There was something in that powder that was irresistible to insects of all kinds and MT. Sparks had to burn a barrel of brimstone be-
 fore he could get them out of the house
 and hes been practically a raging
 ma niac ever since.
 "Now I see the minister coming, and
 I'll ask you to disperse at once, for I don't want him to hear me using Ian
 guage unbecoming a lady. which I'm apt to do if you bother me any longer"

If you consult the ninth volume of the Universal encyclopaedia," said the melancholy stranger at the door, you will see Professor Blitzendorfer de- scribed as the greatest scientist of his age Why is the professor thus de- sCribed? Because, madam, he invent ed the most marvellous powder that was ever offered to the public in hand some tin boxes, at only 25 cents a box
 .'Other savants have invented now ders. and some of them were excellent, but it remained for Professor Blitzen- oorfer to perfect a. powder of universal use. Do your feet ache? You sprinkle some of this powder in your shoes and relief is instantaneous. Is your silver ware tarnished? This powder will your teeth discolored? This powder applied with an ordinary brush, will make them like polished ivory. Are YOU troubled with ants or cockrOacheS in the house? This powder is sure death to them. Is your horse run down and poor? Mix some of this powder with his feed--''
 "Oh. bother you and your powder ' interrupted Mrs. Curfew. T think you have your nerve, coming to the front door this way.
