Safe Home Treatment
For Objectionable Hairs
(Boudoir Secrets }

The electric needle is not required
for the removal of hair or fuzz, for
with the use of plain delatone the
most stubborn growth can be quickly
banished. A paste is made with water
and little of the powder, then spread
over the hairy surface. In about 2
minutes it is rubbed off and the skin
washed. This simple treatment not
only removes the hair, but leaves the
skin free from blemish. Be sure you
get genuine delatone.

he asserted, 55,800,620 tons were

DR.. Eldredge ID. Atwood, shot and prob
ably fatally wounded Dr. Wilfred E, Har.

have an important bearing on the mo-

wood, who told the police that the young
woman intimated to him the night be-
fore her death that she could not marry
him because she had been compromised
by Harris. Atwood was arraigned in

$4,000 bonds was committed to jail for

Physicians at the hospital reported

shooting took place yesterday afternoon
in Back Bay hotel where Harris had
an Office.
Mr., Atwood an osteopath, of l3 Law
renee street, Woburn, walked into the
Hotel Westminster yesterday afternoon,
rang the bell at the Office of DIR. Harris,
president of the Massachusetts College
OF Osteopathy, was admitted by DR.. Har
ris himself and fired five shots at his for
mer teacher. All concerned are osteo-
paths. The autopsy will probably be
held late to-day.
Both DR.. Atwood and his iancee studied

college. The friendship which began he
tween the students in the class room six
years ago ripened into love. Atwood
told the police last night they had
planned to be married soon although
much opposition had developed on the
part of the girls parents, and also by
DR.. Harris. The girls parents objected
on account of a disparity in ages, as
Miss Adams was 2T years of age, while
DR.. Atwood is only %. DR.. Harris is
43.
On Monday, according to DR.. Atwood's |
alleged statement, his sweetheart con
fided to him that the real reason Why she |
could not marry him concerned DR.. Har- |
ris, and, after a quarrel, he left her as |
the Park street subway. At that time, !
he said, she did not feel we'll
DR.. Atwood took his arrest coolly. He |
was taken to the City hospital, where |
DR.. Harris was lying in a semi-conscious
condition Only after the police captain
having Atwood in custody had repeated

In low tone, he identified DIR. Atwood
as the man who had shot him. The
Young osteopath, according to Captain
Joode, his custodian, broke into the
questioning with an oath directed at DIR.
Harris, and said:
Eyes, | shot you, and wish l had
Silled you"
Upon being taken to the police sta
ion, DR.. Atwood was closely questioned
or two hours. He admitted everything,
according to the police and showed alb
formal calmness. He marched to his cell
popular airs softly under his
,reath and submitted affably to an in
erview with reporters
