To Overcome " inter
Complexion Troubles
fTrnm Womanis TrIbune. )


If the chill, air. causes your skin to dry
and scale or become unduly red or spot
ted, before you go to bed spread q thin
layer of ordinary mercolized wax over
your entire face. Remove next morning
with warm water. This is the ideal COM
plexion treatment for the winter girl. The
wax gently absorbs the dead particles of
surface skin. so gradually there's no dis
comfort. This gives the underlying skin
a chance to breathe and to show itself.
In week or so the new and younger
skin is wholly in evidence and you have a
really matchless complexion. Naturally
all its defects disappear with the dis
earded cuticle as chaps, roughness,
blotches, pimples. freckles, blackheads,
saliowness. Usually an ounce of mer-
coiized wax. procurable at any drug store,
Is enough to renovate even the worst
complexion.
Wrinkles need bother you no more IL
you'll use this simple face wash: Pow
dered saxolite, or, dissolved in witch
hazel. * pit Just one application will
Affect even the deepest lines and soon
~ skin will be smooth as qfehild's

BURGLARS GET INTO CHURCH
 AND LIBRARY

New Britain, Conn.,, Aug. 2-St- Mar ta's church and parish house and the New Britain public library were bur glarized last night. An attempt wae made to blow open the safe in the par ieh house, but the crooks were unsuc- cessful. Entrance to this building was gained through a window which was raised from the outside A number of burned matches were found on the floor.
 At the library two windows were broken from the outside and another from the inside Those broken from the outside were evidently smashed with a, stone, but a dfligent search by the police failed to locate the stone, thus leading the officers to the belief that the thieves secreted themselves in the building before it was closed for the night. A small amount of money was taken from a box It was mostly in pennies taken for the collection of fines for books kept out over time. An other box nearby, containing a larger sum collected in the same manner, was not touched.

MacDonald, manager of the San Patriotic Mining Company which was made several days ago by soldiers Of General Pascua1 0rozco at Santa Rosa1ia, was because they declined to accede to the demand of Orozco for a commission of. five per cent on the value of the bullion they intended to move from the Parral district.
 Orozco is said to have offered the miners safe conduct to the border for a considerable Bfssen and Mac Donald have, it is said, made affidavit to President Huerta, setting forth Or ozco's demand.

NICHOLS DID
 SAY HE'D VOTE
 FOR WHITCOMB
Confirmation ! of Farmer Story By Civil War Vet eran-Favors Whitcomb But Will Support the Demoeratic Nominee.

TT did say that I was for Senator Joseph H. Whitcomb for mayor and said it in the registrars office when asked to have my name changed to the Democratic primary list" de- elared Frederick H. Nichols to a Farm CT reporter this morning
 MT. Nichols is a veteran of the Civil War and for many years has been a. Republican The Farmer published the story last evening of Mr. Nichols visit to the Registrars of Voters to have his name taken rom the Repub- Hcan primary list and placed on the Democratic list. Since then the regis trars have denied that MT. Nichols made any statement in regard to Sen ator Whitcomb.
 When seen this morning, however, MT. Nichols insisted that he had made the statement and that he made it in leaving the room. He said:s
 ''I did not say that I was changing
 my politics so that I could vote for Senator Whitcomb for mayor but did say that I hoped to have an ep- portunfty to vote for MT. Whitcornb. In fact intend to vote for the Demo cratic candidate whoever he is. I am disgusted with the treatment I have received from the. Republican party.
 t'I am a veteran of the Civil War and have lived in Bridgeport, a long time. I have also voted the Repub1i- can ticket and worked for the party. When I was out of work went to see Superintendent oN Streets Bodine and he turned me down cold. He put at work other men who have not lived here as long as I have.
 Then I saw Mayor Wilson without any better success. The fact that I have been a life long Republican and that I fought in the Civil War did not seem to cdund with them: So I determined to quit the party. am not looking for anything from the Democrats, that is not why I chang ed, but I am tired of being associated with a party which treats it's old vet erans so shabbi1y."

Weight"
 Case Decision By Judge Wilder
Original Package Two Pounds Shy But No
 Conviction

Charles Brinkerhof, a salesman of New Haven, charged with selling short weight and attempting to defraud clls- toners under the Net Container law, tried several weeks ago in the city court has been discharged from GUS 2ody under a decision handed down 1his morning by Judge Prank P. Will der.
 Brinkerhom who was arrested at the Village Store when bacon sold by him ufas found to weigh two pounds less than the gross weight charged, the difference being in ths paper wrap ping. has been out upon bail while a test case was brought to prevent the sale of bacon and paper together.
 The decision today will permit the sale of original wrappers upon such fucdstufTs as they are held to be pro- tectfon to the food rather than wrap pings about parcels or other commodi- ties.
 Judge WfIder's memorandum holds ErinkerhoH was in manner party to deception as he does not consider the wrapping upon the bacon to come under implied meaning of the word s.package'' in Section 1 of Chapter 134 of the laws of 1911. In support of his decision Judge Wilder quotes a Su- prerne Court decision in the case of Steele vs- Swift, holding that bacon ifs never sold in fixed quantities and therefore cannot be considered a pack age.
 SeaIer Dennis Kelly refused to dis cuss the situation in detail or outline his plans for similar future prosecu- lions

 Chairman O'Rourke said this after noon: We are convinced that Senator MeNei1 has no bona fide residence in the Seventh District, but that he lives with his father in the beautiful home of the latter in the Fifth District. The evidence which convinces us has been recently found, and we shall ask the registrars to consider 1t. The Demo- crats of the Seventh believe that those who vote in the Seventh ought ac- tua11y to live there. Many of us more over are dissatisfied with Senator Me NefPs manner of representing the Democratic party, and if the law is on our side, as we believe it is, we do not desire to run the risk of again having a senator who does not belong among us, who does not believe as we do, and who is not in sympathy with what Democrats in the Seventh Dis trict want
 eff a rich young man can establish a room where he p1eases, and by keep ing two establishments, create legal residence over night in any district he chooses to enter, the prospect of poorer men holding important offices will be considerably diminishaE."
