"A skin Of blended snow. cream and

describes her newly acquired complex

colized wax in place of cosmetics, mas

who have tried this marvellous wax re-
port that its effects are quite different
from those of any other treatment. 1t

upright from a jumping board and
then circled the stage in whirl-
wind ride, making you laugh while
marveling at his antics, that's VIII

Then there's Edith Golden, who will
sing all the latest hits. She's going to
ask all of the boys to join in the chorus

remember that you are guests and Keep

ton THE MICHIGAN HOTEL is the ideal place for
weekend automobile party. The roads leading
TO New London from all points are excellent.
But most important is the fact that this hotel
within little more than two hours distance of New
York. can furnish an attractive home at prices which
many people of refined tastes afford to pay but
who cannot afford similar uxureS in the city of
New York, or any other large city. One not only
gets these luxuries and comforts in New London,
and gets them at from one-half to one-third the
price, but gets of health in the simple life
of that town and its fresh, invgoratng sea breezes
that New York and Boston cannot furnish.
Moreover, the prices at which you can secure
good home at THE MICHIGAN HOTEL are much
less than it would cost you to produce equal COM
forts and equal luxures and an equal grade of living
in an individual home of your own.
