Gains New Complexion
BY Peeling Her Skin

Keep still. sad heart. and cease re-
pining: behind the clouds is the sun
still shining" I was forcibly remind
ed of these lines when. after months
of fretting over my ugly complexion, L
found how easy it was to romove the
cloudy, muddy skin and bring forth a
bright, new complexion. I got an
ounce of ordinary mercolized wax at
my druggists and used this like cold
cream every night for two weeks,
washing it off mornings. Lo and be-
hold! That old skin had all peeled of!
The healthy young skin underneath
gave me a complexion as pure. white
and soft as a young girls. L ex-
perienced no discomfort. the skin came
of so gradually and gently. Several
friends have been similarly benefited.
I'm sure anyone whose skin is soiled,
tanned. withered. blotchy. pimply or
freckled, can acquire the loveliest
complexion imaginable by using this
remarkable treatment.
Another treatment that brought
more sunshine was one to remove
wrinkles. A face bath mad by dis
solving / OF. powdered saxolite in =

line. It's wonderful.-Julia Orff in

Monday, Tuesday n Wednesday OF
next week. as the first in a series of
feature photoplays. Recognizing. the
growing demand among moving picture
admirers in Harrisburg for the master
pieces that are being shown in Broad

the Colonial has decided to try. the ex-
pertinent of booking some of these big
features and playing them at nominal
charges in conjunction with their regu-
lar Vaudeville and picture shows at the
Busy Corner Theater.
Within the past year, many Of the
larger dramatic producing
have taken up film production, but the
best of these have never been shown In
Harrisburg, owing to their great cost.
BY reason of its great seating capacity,
the Colonial is able to present these
pictures by adding FIVE cents to the
regular ten cent admission fee. and SO
many reouests nave been made of the
to give this a trial that
this firm has been prevailed upon to at
least test the public's desire FOR the
better pictures.

PEARCE SAYS PENAL

Anniston, June 14.--tSpecial) Penal service in the state of Alabama is no longer a living he'll" said Dr. John E. Pearce. alleged feudist and convicted as principal in one of the most famous conspiracy cases ever tried in Alabama, on a visit to this city Friday to attend to some land matters involving the estate over which the final battle of the Pearce- Kennedy feud was fought near the Calhoun Etowah border line a few years ago.
 When I was first sent to the mines" said pr. Pearce, T found men chained like dogs, eating, sleeping and work ing with the shackles around the ankles. You never see such a sight as this today, for I do not know of a single chained convict in any of the miis.S or camps of the state. and if any man is roughly treated in the states penal service today he brings it upon himself. Believing me to be a pretty dangerous man, I myself was pretty roughly treated by the guards at first; but I proved my trustworthi- ness and now I am trusted. In the pen, as elsewhere in life, men, as a rule, get what's coming to theim- their just deserts"

FIFTY-DAY SESSION OF GEORGIA LEGISLATURE TO START NEXT WEEK
Probably Will Be Fights for New
 Counties and May Create New Judicial Circuits
Fly ROBERT MORAN

Atlanta, June 14.-One week from next Wednesday the Georgia legislature will open it's 5O-day session. and the political pot will boil and sputter at great rate under the dome of the capitol.
 Many people thought last session would witness an end practically Q the fights for new counties, it belAg the opinion that new county advocates would wait until new legislature is elected before start ing the nall rolling again.
 But not so. There will be half dozen or more live new county propositions here to urge and work and iigiit. Amons these will be Hardeman, with Alma as the county seat; Barrow, with Commerce as the county seat; Candler, with Metter as the courthouse center; Tate in North Georgia and possibly others.
 That these communities named will have advocates on the ground during the session is now assured. Some of them, perhaps all of them, will open head quarters in the Kimban. Hardeman county people propose to bring a train load of folk here on the day the bill creating that county comes up.
 It Is hard to predict now what the people will have along this line, but in- dications now are that two or three new counties at least will stand a mighty good chance for success. Barrow, Cand- Ter, Hardeman and Tate advocates are all hopeful.
 It also seems probably that efforts will be made to create three or four judicial circuits this session. Macon will prob- ably try to get separate circuit for Bibb, and there are several other prop ostions advanced or incubating. It is said that the business in some circuits has grown so large that new circuits are necessity.
 A strong effort will be made also to pass an adequate vital statistics bill It is rather queer condition which finds the state board of health fighting this idea when the physicians all advocate it. It is possible an effort will be made to repeal the new tax equalization law, but it will hardly succeed. There will be much other legislation urged during the session.

Protecting Girl Travellers

fTOm l4eSlle S
 A movement has been started in favor of requiring all railroads to employ ma irons to travel on passenger trains to advise young women who may be travel ing alone and need assistance. All the leading railroads have at their principal stations matrons to look after the welfare of women and in many of the leading cities churches employ representatives. including deaconesses of the Methodist church, to guide and protect women, and especially young girls, who may be travelling alone. For years the transat- lantic lines have employed matrons to look after single women and young girls travelling alone and it is the general rule of all leading companies to berth such pa ssengers in sections of the ship by themselves to assure them of privacy. Special attention is also paid to young girls who come with the immigrant class. It hardly seems necessary to involve either the steamship or railroad lines, therefore, in additional expense for mat ters which have been so carefully safe guarded.

SENATORIAL RACE
 IN GEORGIA SHOWING
 CONSIDERABLE "PEP"
By ROBERT MORAN

Atlanta, June 14.-(Special )-The unex- pired senatorial tearm race is showing considerable ginger these days.
 Affairs were apparently drifting along calmly without many rpples on the sur face. Then Governor slaton began cast ing dornics into the pond and something started up right away.
 They began firing at him from all angles which, by the way, Slaton's friends say offers conclusive proof of the fact and the belief in other candidates minds that he is the strongest man in the race
 Mir Fielder takes a few scholarly and well chosen shots at the executive. Gov ernor Slaton charges a political firm of Hardwick & Fielder, and both gentlemen enter swift disclaimers, and rather insin- uate that they wouldn't be guilty of tying up in any such way.
 Governor Slaton further stirs things up by peting Congressman Hardwick with specific charges, wbereupon the doughty Sandersville man retorts to the extent of a colomn so, and puts some questions to the governor.
 In the meanwhile Mir Fielder had the state agape by coming out for state pro- hibition in a conference down in Griffin with a minister. That did stir the folks up, sure enough. Especially in the light of MT. Felder's legislative career, where he had consistently and openly fought on the other side.
 And John Randolph Cooper stands off and lambasts all with fair impartiality. When Slaton and Fielder refused Hard wick's challenge to joint debate, Cooper promptly took it up and said he was the boy Mr. HardWick was looking for But Hardwick declined this invitation himself Rufe Hutchens is going it his own way He does some commenting on other candi- dates, but isn't quite as caustio as some of the others.
