Poor Mary Ann was positively
sick of it. From morning till
night her mistress bullied her,
accusing her of wilful extrava-
gance and other domestic crimes.
For weeks M. A. bore the ac-

breaking point came eventually,
when she didn't care a hang what
happened. In this spirit she ap-
preached her mistress, and sol
emily reported that the coal eel

People of 6ozrah Complain That Autos and Carriages Have to Roll Down Trap Rock.

A Bozrah correspondent raises the plaint that the people of that town are indignant at the way Highway Com missioner Mcdonald is negIecting the highway between Fitchell and Yantic. At one time there was an excellent ma cadam road between these two vil- lages but since the highway commits sioner ordered several load of gravel dumped on the road to fill in depres- sions several months ago, the road has been in a worse condition than a coun- try cross road. Some months ago Deputy Highway Commissioner Dono- van of Norwich made the announce ment in newspaper and also informed a local seleetman that he was going to put in new road right away. but very few if any had any faith in this promise, as it had been made too often before A carload of trap rock ar rived at the station several months ago and the deputy commissioner or dered the Bozrah selectmen to put it on the road, which he did. There was no lip dressing or roller put on, it be- ing left to autos and carriages to roll it down.

To HaUe Perfect Skin
 Throughout the Summer
(From The Guide to Beauty

These days the face neck, arms and hands need special care and attention. Flying dust and dirt, the beating sun, are severe on any skin. Their despoil ing effects are best overcome by the application of pure mercolized wax. This keeps skin and pores in a clean ly condition, the complexion beauti fully white and spotless. Tan, freck- les, blotches and rOughened cuticle are actually absorbed by it. One ounce of mercolized wax, obtainable at any drug store, is sufficient to completely renovate soiled complexion. It is used like cold cream, allowed to re- main on over night, and washed off in the morning.
 AS the skin tends to expand in warm weather, cheeks and chin to sag and wrinkles to form, good astringent lotion should be used. Dissolve one ounce powdered saxolite in one-half pint witch hazel. Bathe the face in this mornings or before going out for theatre or social affair, It is re- markable skin tightener and wrinkle eraser.
