An Unfailing Way
to Danish Hairs
(Beauty Notes)

Ugly hairy growths can be removed
in the privacy of your own home If
you get small original package of
delatone and mix into paste enough
of the powder and water to cover the
hairy surface. This should be left on
the skin about 2 minutes, then removed
and the skin washed and every trace
of hair will have vanished. No harm
or Inconvenience can result from this
treatment, but be sure you buy real
delatone ne.=AdYertiSemenf

that the next era Of great building ac-
tivity in Brooklyn would take place in
its southern extremity. A journey to-
day along the Sea Beach subway line
discloses the interesting fact that Il
score or more Of builders are busy as
bees erecting stores, apartment and
private dwellings, mostly within q
dozen blocks Of the various subway
station sites.
The Sea Beach lire is the most inn
portant spur Of the Fourth ay. subway,
piercing the heart Of southern Brook-
lyn. This is the line OF which Chairman
Mccall Of the Public Service Commits
sion recently said: This spur is OK
pected to do more toward relieving the
conditions of congestion now attendant
upon travelling from Manhattan to
Brooklyn than any transit improvement
has accomplished since the opening OF
the Brooklyn Bridge, on May "a, 1883"
Many erroneous statements nave
been published concerning this Sea
Beach line. II will not, as has been
stated, be an elevated road, but an
open cut. depressed four-track subway
system. The Brooklyn Rapid Transit
Company is anxious to see this ling
completed by next spring, as it is 'iC-
pending upon this road to do wonders
