For Freckled, Rough
 or Spotty Compilations
(From The Dermatologlstl

The freckling, discoloring or rough ening to which delicate skins are sub ject after exposure to wind or sun, often appearing in spring, may read fly be gotten rid of. Mercolized WAX, spread lightly over the face before retiring and removed in the morning with soap and water, completely pesls off the disf1gured skin. Get an ounce of the wax at any druggists. There's no more effective way of banIshirg freckles or other cutaneous defects. Little skin particles come if each day, so the process doesn't oven temper arily mar the complexion, and one soon acquires 8. brand new, sp9tless, girlish- ly beautiful face.
 Wrinkles caused by weather, worry or illness are best treated by a simple .solutiOn of powdered saxolite, one ounce, dissolved in a half pint witch hazel. Bathing the face in this pro- duces a truly marvellous transforma- tion.

The bronze tablet pIRcsd by Phebe Greene Ward chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution, upon the front of a dilapidated story and half wooden structure in Main street three years ago as a marker for the Old ln- Gfan Trail was taken down Wednes- day. It Is now in 8 more conspicuous and fully as appropriate position. The tablet has been placed on the Iron &enca of the Broad street bridge over 4he PaWcatuck river near the terminal uf the Groton-Stoningto trolley road and diagonally opposite the tablet on the Connecticut end of the bridge and h1onGE1de the one on the Rhode Island end that tells of the building of the Axfdgs and gives the names of the a1emh CTS of the Westerly town council and .e selectmen of Stonington who RapaFYlsSo the building of the bridge. &6e Daughters tablet bears this in epription in raised letters:
 Near This Spot was the Ford of Indian Trail, Used Until the Building q the First Bridge Over the Pawca- tuck River, About 1712. Erected by phebe Greene, Daughters American Revolution. 1909"
 The tablet also bears the seal of the Daughters Of the American Revolution. The local chapter received permission Grom the town council t0 place the tablet on the bridge three years ago, but the chapter subsequently, decided that the old building in Main street was nearest the location of the old 1odian trail or ford. Although this znay be fact, the tablet would be in practical obscurity at that place, hence Ghe removal to more appropriate sur roundings and still within keeping of Sbs purpose oe the tablet

Look for Negro All sunday.

CUMBERLAND, Md. Nov 2i.-The usual
qu let and peacefulness Of Sunday morn
ing in Hampshire county. West Virginia,
was broken to-day by the warlike ap,
pearance OF armed gangs Of farmers
searching for Anjie Hardy. who killed
Lee lnskeep at his farm near Romney
Yesterday and attacked his wife and
hired woman.
Instead of attending church the people
went hunting for Hardy to-day.
Several times during the day Hardy
was seen. but each time eacaped from the
mob. His boldness in showing himself
has astonished the farmers.
This afternoon he was seen by Joe
Higgins, a young boy in the schoolhouse
at Frankfort. Higgins saw smoke COM
ing from the chimney Of the schoolhouse
and investigated He saw the negro
lying asleep on a bench and spurred his
horse away to summon help. Quickly
gathering up rope and their guns, farmers
hurried to the schoohouse, but Hardy
left just before they arrived.
He was chased toward North Branch,
where he is believed TO have boarded a
freight. The conductor Of freight re-
ported that Hardy had jumped from his
train near Green Spring. and mob hur-
ried TO that place in the hope of intercept
ing him.

Hold Three Prisoners.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 24.--Magistrat te
James r. German, recently appointed
by Mayor Blankenburg tn preside over
the hearing at Central Station, caused
sensation to-day by discharging three
men who had been charged with selling
opium and declaring there was no law
on the statute books of Pennsylvania
which made the traffic in opium a
crime.
Il cannot hold these men," he said,
because the state lawmakers in maxi
ing the prohibitive law neglected to
write in It the word opium There
fore 1t Is not crime for a person to
sell. buy or use opium In this State
Magistrate German declared the city
and county OF Philadelphia were liable
for heavy damages, owing to the fines
and jail sentences pronounced here
tofore upon prisoners who had been
arrested for dealing in opium.
"If you men We're brought before me
for selling cocaine or morphine" said
Magistrate German, addressing the
prisoners, ~ could hold you for court
or could sentence you. but you have
just as much right to sell opium as
you have to sell cigars and tobacco
As result of the discovery by Mags-
trate German bill will be introduced
into the next Legislature prohibiting
the sale OF opium.
