A New Face Without
Surgical Skin PeellnG

81 do not approve OF the surgical
operation of face peeling," says Julia
Orn. Its too radical too often dan
gerous. There's a better way Of re-
moving offensive compilations and one
that is entirely safe aud rational.
Ordinary mercolized wax causes the
devitalized scarf skin TO come off. but
gradually and gently. Unlike the sur
gical process. the skin is not forclbly
taken off in big pieces all at once, but
almost invisible fiaky particles are
absorbed by the wax, and from ten
days 10 two weeks are required TO
complete the transformation. There's
no pain. no discomfort
Nature renews compilations the
same way, shedding tiny cutaneous
scales day by day. But deficient cir
culation, or other abnormal condi-
ton, may interfere with the shedding
Ia bad complexion results. Then
mercolized wax assists Nature by
Fastening the removed OF the aged,
faded or discolored top skin Thus
only the lively. young. healthy-hued
skin is in evidence. as in robust girl
hood. This is why mercolized wax
produces the indescribahle beauty Of
ever-renewing youth. The wax is put
on at night like cold cream, and wash
ed off in the morning. You can pro-
cure It al any druggists; an ounce
is sufficient

MR.. CHAYTOR
AGAIN SPEAKS
FOR The CHARTER

The proposed city charter was ex-
planned to the members of the Demo-

d. Chaytor. Jr., and William f. Kurtz
two of the charter commissioners It
had been arranged to have Former
City Solicitor Robert G. Harman
champion the present charter. while
Mr. Chaytor was to defend the new
instrument Mr. Harman did not ap-
pear. but Mr.. Kurtz and Mr. Chaytor
both spoke on the proposed charter.
Mr.. Chaytor said that as a Democrat
he favored the new measure and in
reply to a question by George c. Nor
ton. Mr.. Chaytor said that under the
new charter public official who did
not give satisfaction could be re-
moved at once and at the latest with
in three years
Another god feature of the new
charter. Mr.. Chaytor said, was that
all of the appointive offices would be
filled by the power given to the Of
ficials elected by the people. except
that of the Judge of the municipal
courts and his clerk. The municipal
Judge is appointed by the governor
and he appoints his own clerk.
W. f. Kurtz also gave a short talk
upon the new set of city laws, and
declared his belief that they we're not
only a great improvement over the
complicated laws of today. but would
be a great saving to the city.

REGRET
NJ. c. Robbins.

Tonight my heart-strings throb with |
agony and pain,
For all alone ] sit among the shad- !
ows deep;
If l could only live my life again,
Tonight | would not sit alone and
weep.
But I have never heard a soft young
voice
Say mamma-or a soft hand smooth /
my face;
Longing for that which never can be
mine
Has made these lines of anguish
you can trace.
The snow-drifts in my hair are made
because
My nights are sleepless-full of
deep regret;
The chambers of my heart so empty
are.
And bitter tears each night my pill
low wet.
II I had only known the value then
OF love-and cared not for the gold,
l might have been a wife and mother
true,
But no for mammon then myself l
sold
Tonight l see the sheen the moon
beams made.
AS meath magnolia's waxen flow
ers we stood,
even smell the perfume of those
flowers,
If l could but recall those hours I
would
But no. / never can live Ger again,
Those hours Of rapture that to me
were given,
For only once it comes to mortals
here,
To feel the thrill of ecstacy that
speaks of heaven.
I have about me all that wealth can
give,
The glittering gold is scattered at
my feet,
But I would cast it all unto the winds
If could live once more those days
so sweet.
Take back your gold my heart in an
guish cries.
Each golden coin wrings blood
drops from my heart;
| want it not-I want my htart's true
love;
Why did 1 ever coldly from him
part?
The night winds sough among the
leafless trees:
The stars look coldly down upon my
woe.
But l must walk within the paths I
chose,
And when stern duty calls there I
must go.
/ I'll bear as best l can these chains I
forged:
know twas by my hand the links
were riven;
'Tis only dreams that make me happy
now;
Dreams of the time when we shall
meet in Heaven.
