HAIR R[MOVERS ARE DANGEROUS
Physicians Say Don't Use Poisonous
 DepiIatories."

Tuy SiCldnS Sdy 6OnC use POISONOUS
 DepiIatories."
 The extravagant claims recently
 made by interruptions manufacturers
 of hair removers in sensational adver- tisements unquestionably justify phy- sicians in cautioning the public against
 the use of this class of depilatories.
 How many people have been enticed into using these dangerous prepara- tions, with consequent injury to them selves, cannot be estimated, but only guessed at.
 The preparations above referred to are invariably in the form of creamy paStes, which are to be spread upon the skin to remain until they dry. These contain Sulphide of Barium, an insoluble chemical, which cannot be dissolved; therefore cannot be ab- sorbed by the skin. The very fact that you are told to leave these pasty compounds on the skin until they dry and cake and then lift off with a knife is proof positive that they are not ab- sorbed. If they are, why do they still remain on the skin? The most they can possibly do is to remove the sur face hair, which in consequence will reappear stronger and thicker after eacl. removal
 There is only one logical and scien- tific way to remove hair, and that is by means of a liquid containing soau- ble ingredients which can be absorb ed by the skin. DeMiracle, known all the World over as the only real superduous hair remover, is just such a preparation. It is easily and quick it you will note there is nothing left on the skin. It leaves the skin free from irritation, and what is more tD the point it is absolutely non-poison- ous; therefore, it will not produce ec- zema or blood poisoning. Remember, oiso1,~ the contrary, no poisonous, pasty com pound or so-called liquid cure" ever lid or ever will kill a single hair root, and we can prove it.
 Beware of the fake free advertise CTS and others who by wording of their Advertisements, try to give the inn pression that newspapers and other reputable publications endorse their worthless preparations. Don't be de- ceIved by them. DeMiracle is the only preparation which is so endorsed. DeMiracle is sold at all good stores including Porteous & Mitchell CO | No honest dealer will offer you a substitute on which he makes more l profit.
 1 We will send you a 52-page booklet l containing full informat tion concerning this remarkable treatment, as well as | testimonials of prominent physicians surgeons, dermatoligists.m medical jour nals and the principal ma gazines and newspa pers. You should read this | booklet before you try anything Write to the DeMiracle Chemical Co. Dept. K 6, 1905 Park Ave, New York simply saying you want this booklet and it will be mailed, sealed, at once l Note-Ali readers of this paper whe are afflicted with supsrfiuous haiI growths are strongly advised to write for Information concerning this won derfui method, which is endorsed ths World over by eminent authorities
 who have made lifelong study o1 this subject.

There was some informal talk at the moDthty meeting of the town council relative to ridding the town Of even the occasional presence of the men who tramp from place to place, E travel on freight rather than pas 3euxer trains. Several suggestions were made. among them the uncharit- eb1e one of not permitting the unfor- tunate fellows to take a nap at night on the floor of the vacant store room of the police station. in the basement Or the town hall. Here there is no Gtenm heat. not even elevated plank beds. nothing inviting to the tourists. nothing fitted for the convenience of human life, and the unfortunate men apply Tor shelter there. not from choice, but from necessity, as that Is She best the town affords Even this fs boGrudged by some of the town fath- ca who declared that 1t was about time to convince those unwelcome fravesers that Westerly was no soft spot for them.
 The nd-hearted police officers have given thcse fellows shelter in the un- inviting room. but now some of the men hlxher up suggest that the police exercise care in granting applications for lodgings. housing only those whom they consider deserving and let the other fellows meander out on the high ways and byzways and seek shelter and rest on the lee side of a stone wall.
 Naturally those human failures. whether sheltered in the cellar of the town haii or by the side of a stone wall. are hungry after a night of un- rest Should they happen to make a back door visit and ask for bread. it WAS ~uE<ested that they be stoned away and forced to go their way. One of the council members favored heroic mensures to rid Westerly of the vis- -1tafion of these fellows. and he consid- cred these methods acts of charity.
 Another suggestion was that the po- lice he instructed to order all persons whs applied for police station lodging across the bridge out of the state. in the village of Pawcatuck. Conn. It was xugKested that OfYicer Casey might be rhe man on the bridge and would pre- vent any such plan becoming effective.
 Then ft was suggested that there vas a mission wood yard in Pawca- tuck and that all who applied for lodgings be directed there, where they would be lodged and welcomed by the management and pay for the same by labor in the wood yard: and all under she g-,fse of charity.
 No definite action was taken by the councimen. and no specific orders were issued to the police to guide them i'm their future attempts in deal ing with homeless men who may visit Westerly
