How She Acquierd
 Feminine Charm"

nicely dressed woman sat beside me in the train. Everybody stared at her. It was not her beauty of feature that held our eyes, nor her costume. But there was something about her face and expressionI risked it and asked: Would you mind telling me how you keep your complexion so dag zlingly pure? Don't think me imper- tinent, but you seem over 50, yet haven't a line in your face, and your cheeks are quite peach-like. How do you do it?'
 Laughing, she said: That's easy; 1 remove my skin. Sounds shocking, doesn't 1t? But listen. Instead Of cos metics, I use only pure mercol1zed wax procurable at any druggists. I apply this nightly, like cold cream, washing 1t off mornings, This gently absorbs the soiled. weatherbeaten f1lm-skin, without pain or discomfort, thus re- veal1ng the fresh, clear underskin.

BYRNE BROTHERS IN
 IAN AERIAL HONEYMOON
John Els New Play We'll Received in
 Providence.

In a new play, which he has writ ten and called An Aerial Honeymoon John F. Byrne and the famous Byrne Brothers. opened the season last week at a Providence theatre.
 Of the opening performance the Providence Tribune said:
 There is plenty of life to the per formance and the continuous applause was evidence of the approval of the audience. The scenery is one of the featurues of the play, and as the cur tain rose on the second act, applause greeted the scenery. which pictured huge aeroplane in mid air surrounded by clouds.
 The aeroplane stunts of James A. Byrne and Frank Wagner were amus- ing and the deceptive trunks and fit tjngs through which they tumbled held the close attention of the audience The show is a typical Byrne Brothers production and is probably their best effort
 The comedy girls who formed the chorus are well selected for their mu- sical ability as well as their appear ance, and the music is catchy. The singing of Eddie Akin and c. A. Figg is of the best, and their work receives the applause they merit. Another speciality is the shadow drawings by John F. Byrne with singing accom- paniment. and this number was also an applause producer.
 The work of Miss Frances Folsom as the bride is in keeping with the rest of the show, while John F. Byrne as the groom plays has part with a finish that is delightful

PEARL OF GREAT PRICE !
 WAS SPEAkER'S TOPIC. Rev. H. J. Wyckoff Made Address at Y. M. c. A. Meeting.

There was a good sized gathering at the Y. M c. A open air service held Sunday afternoon at 4.45 o'clock on the Buckingham Memorial grounds. Gen eral Secretary Edwin Hill led the ser vice, which was opened with the sing ing of All Hail the Power of Jesus Name, Bringing in the Sheaves and Love to Tell the Story. Prayer was offered by Secretary Hill and the sing ing of the hymns Rock of Ages, and There is Fountain Filled With Blood followed.
 Rev. Herbert J. Wyckoff, pastor of the Second Congregational church, made the address, taking for his topic The Pearl of Great Price. He hkened the kingdom of God to a merchant one pearl of greater value than any of the others, so that he sold all he had that he might possess it. The true value of a pearl lies not in it's size nor shape. but in the light which seems to shine from within. The true value of the Christians life lies in the. light that shines from within.
 It costs something to possess a great pearl, but if it was the one supreme thing that we desired in this world we would sacrifice many things that we might possess. it. The kingdom of God, the one great thing for us, the pearl that God is offering us, must be purchased at the cost of sacrifice.
 The congregation listened with much interest to the message which was pre- scented in a straightforward and ear- nest manner by Rev. MT. Wycloff The service closed with the singing of Follow On.
 Secretary Hill announced during the service that provided it is not too cold there will be two more open air ser. vices at Buckingham Memorial grounds, before the season closes and the speakers will be announced later. Roy Phillips presided at the portable organ.

CHARGES AGAINST CAPTAIN
 OF STEAMER NORTH LAND
She Went Ashore Last June Near
 6artIett's Reef -Liahtship.

A charge of unskillfulness has been preferred against Capt. Alfred John which went ashore at Bartlett Reef on June last. by United States In spectors Withey and Stewart. Cap-. tain Johnson has been directed to ap- pear before the inspectors to show cause why his license should not be the conclusion of the investigation conducted by the inspectors. which was made public Saturday.
 The North Land was stranded at l1.2i D.: m., during thick fog. The North Land. owned. at Boston. is ship of s,2S2 gross tons She was bound from New York, sailing at 5.06 p. m., on June 4, for Portland. Me. carrying 15 passengers and a cargo of merchandise.
 It was said at the time that the pilot had mistaken the fog signal of Bartlett Reef light vessel for the sig nal at Little Gull Island. This is sub- stantially the reason for the accident as shown by the investigation.
 The passengers on the North Land ferred to New London. Conn, by the wrecking steamer Tasco. and left there at to.2O a. m. on June 9th on a special train for Portland. Me.
 The North Land was t1oated at about S p. m on the same day. proceeding to
 
 New York. N. T.. under her own steam and arriving at the latter port at 6.52 a. m. on June 9th. Upon examination in drydock after she reached New York, the North Land was found to have sustained damages estimated at s20,000.
 In their finding the inspectors state that they are of the opinion that from the time Captain Johnson stopped the North Land. namely at 10.54 D. m., because of his uncertainty as to whether or not the fog signal which he was then hearing was that on Lit tie Gull Island light station, he should have taken the precaution of sounding at frequent intervals so long as any doubt remained in his mind as to the exact position of his ship and we con- slider that Captain Johnson was negli . gent and displayed inexcusably inac- | curate judgment in turning the North Land around twice while uncertain as to her true position without doing SO, as we are satisfied that frequent soundings would have indicated to him that the North Land was then for to the northward of her true course between Cornfie'd Point light vessel and Little Gull Island light.
