Golum- Fbian comnandery, No. f, K. T., also held their annual ball in Breed hall Bthe same week.
 Extracts from the files of The Bul- letin of that week are as follows: Monday, Jan. r. 1S70-Ezra Rob bins, a resident of Preston and an lemploye of the Norwich and Worces- ter Railroad company, was called up about 10 o'clock Saturday night to attend to a case of sickness in his family.

A Smooth, White Skin
 That Defes Weather

During the months of biting winds and intense cold you who would keep your skins smooth, white and Yelyety, should turn your attention to Herco- lized wax. Nothing else will so eff fectively remove chapped, reughened or dtscolored surface. By gradually absorbing the weather beaten cuticle, the complexion is kept in perfect con dition, and even the beauty of exPFes- sion appears more pronounced.
 If your skin is bi0tehy, pimpiy, coarse, over-rea or sallow, why not shed it? One ounce Of ordinary meF- coliEed wax. te be had at any drug or department store, will completely transform the most unsightly com plexipn in less than a fortnight Use the wax nightly, like you use cold cream, washing it off mornings.
