Furious with jealousy toward the

FOSTER BOASTS
He INTENDS To
HAVE CIR"

PEMBERTON. N. j., Jan 2i-"I
intend to have that girl. This mat
ter is no joke I will lay low until /
get her There is no power in The
world that can keep us separated"
In these words Joel NJ. Foster the
millionaire poultry farmer. blazed
forth his love for Delilah Bradley, the
1S-year old girl with whom ne eloped
to Mobile, Ala. This statement was
made to a friend of Fosters just after
he had telephoned to another friend
In the Washington Hotel, Mount Hol-
~, from drug store at Browns Mills
in the Pines.
Foster seemed to mean what he
said, and he didn't appear to care
who heard him. His reputation as
the "nerviest man in the Pine Belt
was carried out. His declaration shat
tiers all rumors that he is seeking a
reconciliation with his wife.
While the personal advertisement
to "Cutey" is still running in a Phil
adelphia newspaper. Foster Is at his
house in the Pines, six miles from
the girls home.
Hopes to kidnap Girl.
According to friends, he will re-
main there until an opportunity to
kidnap his clipping partner presents
itself. The girl, who is still pris-
oner in the home of her parents, re-
iterated in the most emphatic terms
to- day her intention of joining Fos-
ter as soon as possible.
Foster drove to his home in mo-
tor car. Some of Fosters clothing
was packed into a trunk and carried
away in the machine by the chauf-
feur, but Foster himself remained at
Browns Mills, where he is genera
manager Of the International Poultry
Sales Company.
Clad only in her nightie, l1imono and
a pair of slippers, Delilah told de-
tective employed to guard her that
her love for Foster increased every
day.
Her Love Increases.
"T love him better than l ever did. -
she said, land there is nothing in the
world that can keep us separated. It
is only a question of time before
must escape, and then my troubles
will be over.
81 am now awaiting a message from
Smoky and as soon as | receive It I
will positively get out of this house.
The only way In which you can keep
me in II is to tie me up or chain me
to a wall"
The threats that were made against
Foster haven't been carried out, and
there doesn't seem to be much chance
of the makers INJECTING any injury
upon him.
Disreeards Death Threats.
Foster has let 1t be known in
general way that any violence will be
met with violence. He has absolute
ly disregarded the death threats which
were made against him.
Delilah is said to be still on a
hunger strike. Hardly a morsel Of
food has passed her lips since she was
forcihly brought back to her home
here.
The family OF the girl is said to be
making preparations to move from
Pemberton because of the publicity
that has been given to Delilah's elope-
ment.

FRECKLES or WRINKLES
HOW TO LOSE YOUR TAN,

A days motoring, an afternoon on
the tennis ground or golf links, a
sunbath on the beach or exposure
on a sea trip, often brings on deeD
tan or vivid crimson or, more per
picking still, a vigorous crop Of freck-
les. A very necessary thing then is
mercolzed wax, which removes tan,
redness or freckles quite easily. 1t
literally pee!s off the affected skin
just a little at time, so there's
no hurt or injury. AS the skin comes
off in almost invisible flaky PARTICLES.
no trace OF the treatment is shown.
Get an ounce of mereodzed wax at
your druggists and use this nightly
as You would cold cream, washing It
off mornings. In a week or so you
viii have an entirely new skin, beau
tifully clear, transparent and of a
most delicate Wilderness.
Wrinkles, so apt to form at this
season, may be easily and quickly re-
moved by bathing the face in solu-
lion of powdered saxolite, j o.. dis
solved in witch hazel, l-2 pt This
is not only a valuable astringent. but
