Disappears Like Magic
New Wonder Makes 1t Unnecessary to
Use Dangerous, Disfigurlng Elec-
tric Needle or burning Pastes,
Powders or LiquOds

Every woman in this vicinity who
suffers the deep humiliation and en-
barrassment of superfiuous hair and

less advertised depilatories in frantic
search for lasting relief, will rejoice to

been found which quickly and painless
ly eradicates all signs or ugly repulsive
hair growths and. produces positive,
complete and certain results in every
instance. This remarkable MASTER

terprise of q well-known woman who
succeeded in permanently removing
every trace of her own hairy growths
after all else had failed. In her honor
1t Is called MRS. Osgood's Wonder. It
is the only effective eradicator that
never fails to remove all signs of super
fiuous hair smoothly and painlessly
and without injury to the skin or COM
plexion. In surprisingly large num-
ber of cases 1t has succeeded in killing
the hair roots, source of all growth. so

Mrs. Osgood's Wonder. A signed guar
antee comes with every package but
do not forget that while there is no
danger of applying this amazing dis
covery to even the most sensitive skin,
1t should not be used except where total
destruction of the hair wherever ap-
piled is desired.-Advertisem

a B. M. A. JOY RIDE.

AS an expedient for keeping up the interest during the vacation season, the Torrington Business Mems Associa- tion are arranging for a summer outing and excursion, by automobile, to Savin Rock. The Winsted Association set the pattern, in that sort of thing, and went last year to Stockbridge, in about hundred autos-at least that number of livewire joy riders saluted The News office on the way through Ga naan, that day. It's 8 fine idea, this summer junket of the B. M. A., and shows the Association to be as much alive at other times as they are at some times. It is not at all likely that the members of the Canaan Business Mems Association would get seasick from the motion, if they were to organize an ex- petition of the sort.

COL. OSBORN WON'T.

In delightful letter to the Journal Courier, written by Col. Osborn while "half-seas over" on the steamship Olympic, the Colonel tells of the con- yentionality of the first-class cabin passengers-of which he is one-and rebels against it. His independent soul revolts. He writes:
 '"To the comforts of home have been added the discomforts of convention. People dress for breakfast, for lunch, for afternoon tea and for dinner. I am bewildered by it all., Sometimes I wonder if my obstinancy in quietly refusing to play part for which I am not adapted has made me conspicuous. I have been expecting to be told to go below and have the ocean hay seed brushed from my clothing. But I am on strike. positively decline to make myself miserable by doing at sea what I never should think of doing at home. At times I have leaned over the rail and looked down upon the rollicking second cabin passengers and yearned to be among them. We. upstairs have nothing on those below. They are at least free. If you, gentle reader, exhort me to conduct myself as the Romans do, while I am in Rome, reply: Scot l! I'm no Roman, I vote in the Eighth ward, New Haven. :"
