Reviewing the circumstances sur rounding the death of three-year-old Filomena Saccone, who was run over and killed by a trolley car last Sum- day near her home at Grand and Main street, Coroner Clifford B.

POLO PLAYERS ARE NOT EASILY SHELVED
John Roberts in Game Quarter
 of a Century

Apropos of the benefit polo game that is to be given in New Bedford for John Roberts the former Teddy Bear, who was seriously injured a time ago, the "Brockton Enterprise prints a story regarding the length os service that some of the veterans oe the game have seen before they re- tired The story follows:-
 Tt is possible that John Roberts Of New Bedford, the rink poloist who is to have a benefit at New Bedford because he was injured and knocked out of a game the other night, may be closing his career as a poloist. The fact leads to the thought that at last time is making serious inroads upon tie hardest bunch of athletes that ever happened in modern times.
 ..When the near nliddle-aged reader was a lad or lassie in school. rink p>lo was just getting under way, and some great men of the game were just starting to play. John Roberts was one of them. He was Q polo rusher the hardest work on the floor-away bsck in the early eighties. He was a pcfo rusher when he was hurt. still flying speedily over the floor, still true of eye keen of vision, swift and pow erful.
 --Off the floor he looks a prosperous nlsddie-aged and rather fleshy citi- zen, whom you would expect to see usA a car for even a short trip. On the floor he still was able till a few days ago to whirl around lie an ath- ietic youth of Is.

MIR. HIGGINBOTHAM ON
 THREE WEEKS ABROAD

i John U. Higginbotham, author, ora
 tor, traveller, lecturer and businessman ] believed that three weeks on the otn- l CT side" is long enough for the aver l age man to stay abroad at any one 1 time. Allowing two weeks to go and
 come and twenty-one days on land, MT. Higginbotham has shown in pre- vtous books how to get first class glimpse of Europe in three weeks ana also how to thoroughly explore Hol- land and Belgium in the same length
 of time.
 His latest book is Three Weeks in
 the British Isles, and by the way MT.
 Higginbotham used the words Three Weeks" in connection. with his books
 long before Eleanor Glynn made Three Weeks another story. He
 travels with seeing eye, a hearing
 ear and a retentfve mind, and when he ! takes his pen in hand to record the incidents of his trip the result is most entertaining. As Wilbur D. Nesbit has
 seen fit to remark, "Mr. Baedecker would do we'll to engage MT. Higgin- botham to inject some human interest into his volumes
 MT. Higginbotham puts it this way. Tt is the fashion to smile at the idea of seeing anything in a foreign coun- try in a shorter time than three months. As a matter of fact. more can be seen abroad in three weeks LlldIl CdIl De seen dL nOIll6 m c1l 6ilLlI . summer. Distances are shorter be- tween noteworthy objects The unusu- al grips the attention at every turn. Trains. hotels and guides are all ar
 ranged to give you the most in the shortest time.''
 Upon this theory the author is build ing a series of travel books that are unique, being alike valuable to those who contemplate a trip abroad and those who stay at home. There are 32 chapters and 52 photographic pic lures in Three Weeks in the British Isles. The pictures, like the text, are original in their production, as MT. Higginbotham travels with a camera. In this way his books are illustrated with something beside the usual trav- eler's proofs
 But the real test of '"Three Weeks in the British Isles'' is the very read
 able, chatty style of the author. He allows you to see just what he has seen, and without attempting the work of a guide he does show you how to go and see it for yourself. There is
 always a funny side to travel and MT. Higginbotham sense of humor, to-
 gether with his ability to twist the Queens English into American quips and wheezes, enables him to inter- sperse his story with at least a hun- dred laughs.

You might just as well shave as use a

removes the surface hair; therefore he
effect is the same as shaving. only the
razor is more convenient and takes il
off cleaner. OF course, il does not mat
ter which way you do il: you only re-
move the surface hair. which will re-
turn stronger after each removal. The
same applies to other worthless com
pounds and so-called liquid cures. "
