MAY BECOME A NATION
OF BEARDED WOMEN
If You Value Your Face Beware of So-Called
Hair RemoverS.
They Cause a Soft Fuzz to Come Back Stiff
Bristly Beard.

1t is the opinion of eminent authori-
ties that if women continue to, remove
superauous hair with worthless, pois
onous depilatories. 1t will be only a
question of time before we will have
nation of bearded women, because
even when a downy growth is removed
by these compounds and concoctionS. it
is sure to grow out again coarser and
heavier after each removal and event
ually it will become stiff, bristly
beard. Then 1t will be necessary to re-
sort to the use of the razor, because no
preparation will be strong enough to
remove it without running the skin
1t can be safely said that eczema will
most likely become national disease
if women continue to use so-called
depilatories. Nothing has done more
to produce serious skin troubles and
eczem" than the use of these prepara-
tions. While the harm caused by them
is not always noticeable with the first
few applica tions, the real injury plainly
manifests itself after frequent and con-
tinued use
For years we have been cautioning
women against the use of poisonous
pastes, powders. fake beauty article
recipes" and so-called LIQUID cures, .
but it seems that some are always
willing to be humbugged. because as
soon as one faker has gotten all he
can out of confiding women another
takes his place, and so 1t will continue
as long as women will permit them
selves to be victims of such impostors
If you don't mind taking the risk Of
disagreement. why pay twenty Ave
cents to one dollar or more for such
worthless prepara tions. when you can
procure from any drug store for five or
ten cents a sufficient quantity of the
ingredients to last year?
It must be borne in mind that after
the growth of hair is stimulated by the
use of so-called depilatories 1t will ne
cessitate much longer and more per-
sistent treatment with DeMiracle than
it would have otherwise required
Therefore, isn't It safer to stop expert
menting and use the world famous De
Miracle which is acknowledged by en-
inent authorities everywhere as tine
standard depilatory-the one perfected.
non poisonous safe and harmless prep
aration that dissolves hair. thereby
taking the vitality out of 1t. conse-
quently retarding and preventing an
increased growth?
The best and most convincing proof
that DeMiracle is the only absolutely
reliable and trustworthy hair remover
Atlanta Georgian., 1912-07-03

is that it has stood the test of time. It
was the largest selling depilatory ten
years ago and more of it has been sold
each year since than the combined
sales of the nostrums. The mere fact
that fake dangerous preparations are
short lived sheuld alone be sufficient
warning to avoid the use of any depil-
atory but that of proven merit
Don't be deceived or deuded by al
Turing and impossible claims of i'm
posters, who usually resort to publish
ing testimonials procured for a money
consideration from one or two physi
clans of questionable standing. or from
some unknown woman, who is dubbed
as great society leader" More than
likely the preparations were never used
by the writer's of the so-called testi-
monials. Tell any one of them that
DeMiracle Chemical Company will for
felt Five Thousand Dollars if it can be
proven that their so-called superfluous
hair cures" ever eradicated one single
growth of superf1uous hair.
Insist on proof when takers say such
preparations are Endorsed by the med
ical profession To substantiate our
claim that DeMiracle is the only de-
pilatory that has ever been indorsed by
reputable physicians, surgeons, derma-
tologists, medical journals, prominent
magazines and newspapers. we will
send copies of the testimonials on re-
quest. And mind you, every one is
genuine If they were not. we could be
compelled by law to discontinue pub

All reliable dealers sell and recon

best and safest depilatory Some un-
principled ones will tell you they can
not procure 1t SO that they may more
easily influence you to purchase their

MCMichaeI Says He viii Seek
Cooperation of Offenders in
Abating Nuisance.

City Smoke Inspector Paul McMich-
ael today outlined the duties of his
new Office to The Georgian He de-
clared that conditions would be inn
proved as rapidly as possible. but that
campaign of education must be un-
dertaken first. He said
my duties will be largely educa
tional The manufacturers railroads
and other large consumers of soft coal
in Atlanta are not emitting smoke ma
hciously. They are more than willing
to abate the nuisance if shown how.
particularly if. as some have already
learned, it can be done with no in
crease in operating expense. In order
to get results quickly we must have
the cooperation Of the large coal con
sumers. We can not compel the rigid
enforcement Of the new smoke ordi =
nance in all its terms Immediately
Such policy would work great hard :
ships upon manufacturers already To-
Gated here and would have the effect,
for time at least. Of keeping away
from Atlanta other plants which our
various commercial organiza tions are
trying to bring here.
The smoke nuisance can be abated
by properly directed efforts. In which
we expecte the assistance of the man
ufacturers, but 1t can not be entirely
abolished until all sntiquated steam
plans have been worn out and replaced
by more modern equipment Each
stack presents its own individual prob
lem to be solved and this will take
time It is unreasonable t expect that
an evil which has been accumulating
for 30 years shall be done away with
in day. We hope for the indulgence
and patience of Atlanta while we are
working out the solution of this prob
lem and promise that conditions will
be improved as rapidly as our best ef-
forts can get results"

Childress had thrown considera Bile
alarm into the two policemen ard they
reached the Ashby street neighborhood
with their fingers on the triggers But
they hunted an hour in the darkness
without finding anybody who appeared

Then Miss Barrett spoke to them
out of her bed room window and told
them that if they were burglars she
was going to f1ll them up with lead.
They explained they were policemen
and Miss Barrett told about the burglar

the shot that Childress nearly got was
