Renewing Compilations
by Absorption

II your complexion Is marred with
blotches. sallowness. moth patches,
pimples, blackheads or freckles, it's
useless to nntter with powders and
paints. jellies, creams and things. I'm
less you have some ability as an artist
you'll mar your appearance still more.
The new and rational way is to take
off the complexion itself. with all its
offensive marks. Just get an ounce of
pure mercolized wax at the druggists
and use at night same as cold cream
Remove next morning with water and
soap. The mercolized wax absorbs the
half dead scarf skin in flaky particles.
SO gradually no one guesses you're
treating your face-unless it be by the
result, which is truly wonderful.
There's nothing like 1t for restoring
natural. healthy and beautiful COM
plexion.-Aunt Sally.

ABOUT WATCH BUYING
When You Buy a Watch Buy it Of
Dealer Who You Can Place Con.
fidence ln-Ons Who Will Give You
a Square Deal.

The business Of selling watches Is
largely matter of confidence between
customer and dealer. Technical terms
such as bridge models" double roll
err steel escape Wheels mean much
to a dealer but they are nothing but
names to the customer.
The mechanical structure of a watch
is such a difficult matter for the av-
erage person to understand that often
the more they are told about it the
more confused they become.
In this store our method Of selling
watches is SO simple and so fair to
the customer that the least expert
enced person can buy here with the
assurance Of getting full value for ev-
cry dollar spent.
If you are considering the purchase
Of watch we should be glad to show
you.

Into A Stone CuIvert With
An Automobile
Paul Sawvel And Party Have
Exciting Experience
Automobile Wrecked And
CuIVert Badly Damaged

While running at a lively rate Of
speed on the Granville road south of
the city Saturday evening, an auto
mobile belonging TO Mr.. Paul Sawvel
Of this city, occupied by Mr.. Sawvel
and three other young men, crashed
into stone culvert and was com
pleteiy wrecked. The occupants OF
the automobile were hurled from
their seats to the ground and, by a
remarkable chance, escaped uninjur-
ed.
Mr.. Sawvel was driving the ma.
chine bound for the city after a short
ride and was making spurt when
he suddenly lost control Of the steer
ing wheel and 1t slipped from his
hands. At the moment when the
wheel was released the machine took
sudden swerve to the side of the
road and struck a stone culvert. The
occupants of the front seat were
thrown through the wind shield by
the sudden stopping OF the car and
alighted on the ground several feet
in advance of the crushed hood.
Those i'm the rear we're fortunately in
such n position when the shock came
that they were able to keep from be-
ing thrown against the back of the
front seat.
The fact that all escaped uninjured
is little short of miraculous consider
ing the shock that the car must have
sustained when it came In contact
with the culvert. The damage done
the machine will probably reach an
amount in excess of $500.
The culvert, which was built Of
cement, was badly damaged.
