Youthful, Beautiful
Skin Easy to Have

You may be as healthy as bird in
the air and still have poor complexion.
Changing seasons and temperatures,
winds, dust and dirt, are apt to injure any
skin, even though the general health be
good. When these external influences
spoil the complexion, the natural thing
is TO remove the spoil by external means.
Ordinary mercolized wax will do this.
1t will actually absorb the weather
beaten film-skin, a little each day. In a
week or two you'll have brand new
complexion, new skin. The exquisitely
beautiful and youthful complexion thus
acquired, comes so easily, without harm
or discomfort, there's no reason why any
woman should not adopt this simple
treatment. Get an ounce of mercolized
wax at any drug store, apply nightly
like cold cream, washing it of mornings.
This will not fail in any case.
To quickly remove wrinkles, signs of
care and age, battle the face occasionally
In a solution of powdered saxolite. l or,
dissolved in Y pit. witch hazel. The re-
suits will surprise Observation-Disclosures,

DOUBT ASSAULT
STORY OF GIRL

Helen Snedeker, twenty-five years
old, was found unconscious on the
floor of the parlor of her home. at
129 Watson avenue. by her parents
last night. Beside her on the floor
a ar-old baby, which had been left

to itself as though nothing had hap
pened. They were the only persons
in the house, while the girls par
ents had been out for a short time.
Or. David A. Stern, who lives at 70
Watson avenue, was summoned. but
the girl revived before he reached
the house and told wierd story Of
a short, stout man entering the
place, throwing the baby to the floor
and breaking her own arm.
DIR. Stern found that the girls arm
was not broken, but that two liga-
ments were badly strained, as they
might have been by a fall AS the
baby was unframed the girls story
seemed incredible.
The police were notified. however,
and Captain Samuel Brown, OF the
Sixth precinct, assigned Plainclothes-
men Riley, Thomas and Heller to the
case. They say they learned that
the girl is subject to hysteria, has fire.
quented motion picture houses with
lurid offerings and has told stories of
incredible adventures before.
1t is their belief that she Is afraid
when left alone, and. being of
highly nervous temperament, con-
jures up visions of all sorts of strange
creatures whenever she looks into
a shadow or hears O noise.
They think that she was in such
a state of mind last night when she
heard her parents opening the outer
door and tainted from fear that some
intruder was about to break In en-
her. They are not sure whether she
really imagined she saw the short,
stout man she declared struck her
or was ashamed to have tainted and
invented the story.
