How English Beauties
Peel Their Faces
Iron society worldl

while abroad recently could not
help observing that the average Eng
lishmoman's complexion is far more
beautiful than that of the average wo-
man Of our country" says Mrs. Scott,
secretary OF the National Health-Cul-
ture Society. Making inquiries, sew
eral intimate friends in London con-
fided to me that they regularly used
on their faces what is commercially
known as mercolized wax. / do not
know whether the habit is general
there, but | do know that this wax
has wonderful rejuvenating properties.
I've tried it myself
If you will get an ounce Of this mer-
colized wax at your drugstore and ap-
ply it like cold cream. you will soon
behold in your glowing cheeks their
first resemblance TO the remarkable
transparent beauty Of the Englishwo-
mans complexion. This wax gradu-
ally peels off the lifeless scarf skin in
tiny. almost imperceptible flakes. re-
vealing the fresh new skin underneath,
pinky white. with the bloom Of youth
and health"

KEEP POLICE OUT
OF TICKET SALES
Commission Does Not ThiRk
it Wise to Aid in This
Charity

The Police Commission yesterday
afternoon refused a request from G..
=. Monck, representing the auxiliary
of the Delaware Anti-Tuberculosis So
ciety, to allow the police to sell tickets
for a benefit performance TO be held at
the Garrick Theatre in May
The society has leased the theatre
for the second week in May. and viii
present "Pinafore.' Mr.. Monck in
formed the members of the board in
his communication that it was pro-
posed to have,a gala performance each
evening Of that week, and there was
to be a police night He requested
the commissioners to suspend the rule
which prohibits the police from sell
ing tickets for the performance on that
night.
While admitting that this rule Is
suspended once a year, when the po-
lice hold their annual field sports for
the benefit of the Police Pension Fund,
and the cause of the eAnti-Tuberculosis
Society was a deserving one, the board
did not think it wise to go further. It
would open the way for similar app.i-
cations from other charitable and
philanthropic organizations, the board
thought. Sergeant Shell, clerk to
Chief of Police Black. was instructed
in replying to Mr. Monck to express
the sympathy of the board with The
work being undertaken by the so
ciety.

A test made of the riot call boN III
the Office OF Chief of Police Black fol-
towing the weekly meeting of the Po-

resulted in considerable excitement
and tn people were agitated for sew

the many and varied rrumors that
were current. - .Ao
Citv Hau hell and a like number on
fhe bells at the various fire houses OF
the citv. but there was jumble OF
sounds instead, and in nearly every
oneine house the indicators showed
differont numbers. Few, il any reg
istered the twelve strokes properly
. II was the first time In many years
that a riot call was sent in from the
box and it was for the joint purpose
of testing the box and to learn whetn-
er the men were read up In the man
ual that the test was made. The box
was found to be out Of order but the
men, from the way they began 10
flock into the police station evidently
remembered what a riot call was IN
tended for. The call is supposed 10
bring every officer TO the Clty man
and shortly after it was sent in street
sergeants with details of men swung
into the police station, and others
came in twos and threes until the
police station was filled with blue
coats.
The widest kind of rumors were
circulated following the call. One was
that a big bank robbery had occurred
Others heard that there was riot
at Third and King streets In which
two policemen and others had been
shot and killed, and still others
thought a fire was in progress, and
that the e-tire police force was re-
quired at the scene.
The FIRE engine houses had been no
titled by telephone before the call
was sent in so that the apparatus
would not leave. their quarters, and
whether any of the police heard OF
the call coming in from this course
is not known. Anyway the most Of
them made their. way to the City Hal
soon after the alarm was struck

THIN FOLKS MADE PLUMP
SamoSe Ideal Flesh Builder Says
Miller Drug Co.

Thin people are simply suffering
from want of nourishmenti
If you are thin. it is because the
food you eat is not assimilated and
passes through the system without
building up the flesh and tissue as it
should.
You can readily get plump and rosy
by using Samose, tissue forming
food, which when taken with the
meals. Immediately becomes a flesh
building and life giving element in the
blood
Samose builds up the system, puts
flesh on the bones. brings back the
glow of health to the pallid cheek and
removes the tired and languid feeling
which is the result of exhaustion and
low vitality.
Miller Drug Co is introducing
Samose TO their customers and recon-
mends it highly, and gives the best
proof of their belief that Samose Will
do all that is claimed for it by Offer
ing to refund the money II it fails to
increase the weight and restore good
health.
