To Absorb Freckles
And Other Blemishes

Every spring numerous inquiries
are made by girls seeking some re-
liable recipe for removing frecklea.
Last year very favorable reports
were received from many who had
used mercolized wax during the
freekiinR season. The wax seems to
possess unusual propeN tes which
completely absorb the freckies, with
no harmful effect. Tho complexion

soft as n rose petal. and as delicate

PACIFIC BANDIT
Believed Robbery Was Com
mitted by One of Robbers
Who Held Up Stage in
Park.

Officials both federal and state in
southern Idaho are camping on the
trail of the bandit who held up the
Union Pacific train after it left Green
River last week. The theory now ad-
vanced by them is to the effect that the
robber is the same bandit who held up
the stage coaches in the Yellowstone
National park last summer. His de-
scription answers that of the park
highwayman according to James w.
MeIrose, special United States agent
for the government bureau of investi-
cation.

tween the towns OF Green River and
Rock Springs, the bandit climbing the

Posses were sent from both towns
Following an all-day fruitless search
for the highwayman, they returned and
expressed the conviction that the rob-
Der had received outside assistance.
Automobile tracks we're found near
the place where the bandit left the
train. few miles west OF Rock
Springs. 1t is generally believed that
he fled over the automobile road that
begins a. Rock Springs and leads to
Yellowstone park.
A reward of $1,000 for his capture
has been offered by Union Pacific Off
Gals at Cheyenne.
In the Yellowstone park stage hold
up last summer, 125 passengers were
robbed of $4,000 Among them were 100
school teacers from New York.
