Young Ladies Write
 Dr. Hartman

if I should say that one-half of the young ladies of this country suffer from constipation.
 Now l wish to say that Peruna will regulate the bowels. If VIII stimulate the excretory organs. Peruna will clear the complexion simply because it takes away the offending poisonous materials which cause plrnples. blotches. spots on the skin. roughness of the skin, warts, moles and the Ike. l make no apology and have no hesi- tation in saying 10 the public that Peruna taken according to directions on the bottle will do more towards beautifying the complexions Of our young ladies than all the applications that can be made 10 the skin. All the facial massage and treatments that have ever been invented never will do these cases so much good as Peruna, except some other medicine which is made on similar lines.
 I do not claim that Peruna Is the only medicine that will prevent ao- sorption of poisons from the 0Owels- But I do claim that it is one of ths medicines that will do this-a reliabls one-an old and trusted one-one that has stood the test of years-One that is lauded by thOusandt of people Whs have tried it.
 So then, young ladies. if you want clear skins, free from pimples. take Peruna- This is the advice of an old. experienced physician who admirst young ladies in a fatherly way. whO i8 acquainted with scores of them. What l am telling you in this article ] hays told my own family. my own children and grandchildren many times. and the numerous acquaintancss wff1 whom I daily associate.

Best Treatment for
 All Complexion Ills
(From woman's Tribune)

(From Womans Tribune.D
 I'll tell you my panacea for all conn plexion troubles. If the skin be color less, sallow, muddy, over-red, fl it be rough, blotchy or pimply. there's noth- ing that will so surely overcome the condition as ordinary mercollzed wax. The wax literally takes off a bad com plexion-absorbs the dead and near dead particles of surface skin, SO gent ly, gradually, you experience no incon- venience at all. A new complexion is then in evidence, one SO clear, spot less. delicately soft and beautiful, you look many years younger. One ounce of this wax, procurable at any drug store, will rejuvenate even the worst complexion. It is smeared on like cold cream before retiring and removed mornings with warm water. The mer- colized wax habit is a healthier and more economical one than the cosmetic habit.
 If the skin be wrinkled or habby, bathe it daily in a solution made by dissolving an ounce of powdered saxo- lite in a half pint witch hazel. Thif acts immediately. affecting even ths deepest wrinkles.-Elsie Desmond.

Fred NJ. Watrous of this city was named as correspondent in a divorce suit instituted by Firth Rawson against May Spencer Rawson Attor- hey Thomas J. Kelley appeared for the petitioner and turned over to Judge William L. Bennett of the su- perior court a bundle of sixty-two let ters written by Mrs. Rawson to Fred M.

 Attorney P: J. Danahey appeared for the wife of the petitioner, but no de- fense was entered. Firth Rawson, the petitioner, was the first witness called. He testified that he bad lived in Wtllimantic eight years and mar ried May Spencer June 19, 1907. They started housekeeping at 120 Spring street. On May 16. 1909, he heard that Fred M. Watrous was calling on his wife. He investigated and found it to be so. People had seen Watrous go to his house frequently. He had not spoken to his wife about the matter until later and then she denied it. In August, 1912, Fred M. Watrous prom ised witness that he would help him out if he (Rawson) would not bother him (Watrous). Watrous then gave Rawson the sixty two letters written by May Rawson to Fred M Watrous. Rawson testified that he had not lived with his wife since then. He said his wife finally admitted that what was said in the letters was true and that she had been unduly intimate with Watrous.
 Mrs. Olive B. Walker of 120 Spring street said that Rawson and his wife were tenants In her he. .lse Watrnus called on Mrs. Rawson very often. He was there on an average of from two
