Eye troubles of many descriptions may be wonderfully benefited by following the simple rules

Simple Home Remedy
 for Wrinkled Faces

Thousands of the fair sex are spend- ing fortunes in frantic efforts to re- move the signs of premature age from their faces. Such women willingly pay almost any eamount of money for worthless wrinkle 'removers, of which there are many.
 If they only knew it. the most ef- fecti]e remedy imaginable is a simple, harmless lotion which can be made up at home in less than a minute They have only to get an ounce of pure powdered saxolite and half a pint of witch hazel at the drug store and mix the two. Apply this daily for a while as a refreshing face wash. The effect is almost magical Even after the first treatment a marked improvement ks noticed and the face has a smug. frm feeling that is most PaeaSkng-

recently called for bids for work in the towns of Columbia. Killingly and Brook lyn. The three contracts Were figured by the department at about five-shun- dred thousand dollars. When the bids of the contractors were opened it was found that their prices were from twen- ty to thirty per cent higher than the estimated cost of the work. As a result. Commissioner Bennett rejected all the bids, as the state would have been heavy loser if the work had been under taken at these prices.
 Commissioner Bennett Is quoted as saying, Conditions are getting so bad that it looks as though we will have no more new work done on the state high ways. The heavy cost of labor and ma terials is such that it is practically im- possible to have any work done for a legitimate amount of money. and in all probability the department will not call for further bids for new highways. There will be no let up. however. on re- pair work. This work will cost the state more this year than in any other one year in the history of the depart ment

LOCKS UP GEM SHOP,
MAN AND CUSTOMER
The Bandit Then Escapes With
$4,000 in Loot.

Philadelphia, Feb. 7.-Entering the
Emerson jewelry shop, 614 Market
street, bandit drove the proprietor
and a customer into a back room,
locked them in, spent fifteen minutes
ransacking the shop and then escaped
with jewelry valued, the owner says,
at more than $4,000, and the contents
of the safe.
Albert Cohen, proprietor Of the
store, was alone when the bandit
pointed pistol at his head and start
ed to drive him toward the rear of
the store.
Before Cohen reached the doorway
of small room in the rear, HUFFMAN
lngham, petty officer in the navy,
entered the shop. He failed to see
Cohen and the bandit until the bandit
quietly called to him TO "come back"
Ingham, walking toward the rear Of
the shop, suddenly found himself con-
fronted by the bandits pistol. Men
aced by the pistol, the sailor was fore
ed to stand alongside Cohen; and then
the thug slowly drove both men into
the small anteroom and boiled the
door from the outside.
Fox fully fifteen minutes the two i'm
prisoned men waited while the robber
took his time rummaging through the
safe, opening the cash register and Sc
lecting an expensive assortment of
jewels from the counters in the store.
Then the door 70 the little room was
opened, and the bandit, still grasping
his pistol, peered within.
Just minute more" he said calm
ly."
Before Cohen and Ingham could
reach the door the bandit had swung
it shut again and bolted it. A minute
later the men heard the bandit leave
the store.
After first vainly shouting for help,
the imprisoned men started to batter
at the door. Before hey succeeded

had disappeared,

COAST Liner
FAST ON REEF
Princess Anne is Ashore Near
ROCkdWay Point.
GALE PREVENTS RESCUE
Coast Guard Life Savers Are Endea-
Voring to Land 1914 Persons on
Stranded Steamer.

New York, Feb. 7.-Washed by
towering waves driven in from the
Atlantic by northeasterly gale,
leaking and her wireless all but use
less, the Old Dominion line passenger
steamship Princess Anne is a victim
Of the storm, lying on a sand reef
near RockaWay Point.
On board are thirty-two passengers
who left Norfolk for New York and a
crew of seventy-two. Half a dozen
ocean-going tugs, supplemented by
coast guard life savers, were endea-
vOring to effect their rescue in the
face of a storm which observers de-
clare is the worst seen on this coast in
many years.
The Princess Anne wireless sent out
calls, and as soon as crews could be
summoned, two navy tugboatS and a
coast guard cutter put out to its as
sistance.
The life guards at Rockaway Point
attempted to send surf boat to its
assistance, but high seas, pounding the
beach in waves twenty feet high, made
succor from that source impossible.
LifebOats were then placed on board
larger vessels and a detOur was made
around Rockaway Point to a position
where efforts to reach the ship gave
more promise of success. \ change in
the direction Of the wind resulting in
a somewhat caImer sea, indicated that
rescue Of passengers and crew might
be effected soon. The steamship, ac-
cording to wireless reports, is so badly
damaged that it may be lost if the
pounding continues for another TWEEN
ty-four hours.
Six men from the coast guard sta
ton near the end Of Rockaway Point
had a trying experience IN taking a
lifeboat two miles along the beach to-
ward the reef where the steamship
was grounded. With four army mules
pulling the boat carriage, the trip
took more than nine hours.
Half way the mules became played
out after struggling through the heavy
slush and ice. The men then took the
boat from the wheels, and hauling it
themselves, skidded it over the ice.
Joseph Often, a surfman, who was
left in charge of the mules, succeeded
only with greatest difficulty in pre-
venting the tired animals from lying
down to die from exposure. He was
injured by one animal falling on him,
and reached the station suffering Sc
-~@-ly from cold.

SEEK THIEF TO HOLD VICTIM
He Was Illegally Transporting Whisky
Which Was Stolen,

Pittsburgh, Pa, Feb. 7.-George Sar-
key, of Springdale, is in bad way,
as he terms it.
Held up and robbed, he faces prose
cution if the robbers are apprehended.
AS a consequence, Sankey's descrip-
ton Of the robbers, according to the
police, was livery inaccurate"
Sarkey reported to the state police
in New Kensington that he had been
held up by three negroes ON the Pitts
burgh road near Harmonville and rob
bed Of 5000, his watch and suitcase
containing six quarts of whisky.
Asked what he was doing with the
liquor, he stated it was for medicinal
purposes" Informed that it was
against the law to carry liquor, his
anxiety for the capture of the high
waymen 1essened perceptibly. The po-
lice say that if the robbers are arrest
ed and the whisky is recovered Sarkey
will also be arrested for Transporting
AQuor contrary to the law.

Bile winter in the mountains" he says,
land the existing food supply is entire
ly inadequate for the great number of
refugees without resources of any
kind.
by a recent agreement between the
premiers Of the republics Of Armenia,
Azerbaidjan and Georgia to cease hos
tilities and settle all differences by
arbitration one obstacle to relief work
in the Caucasus has been removed and
makes accessible a great number of
destitute people who otherwise would
perish this winter.
1.-TWO hundred thousand destitute
Armenians and Tartars can now be
reached in the districts of Karabagh,
Shusha and Nakhichevan, in the south
east section of the Trans-Caucasus, and
we are planning to extend our work
there. The economic situation is so
desperate and food supplies so scanty
that the Georgians have ordered 10O,-
600 persons, mainly Russian refugees
without employment, to leave the city
Of Tifiis. About $4,000 workers in the
oil fields of Baku have been ordered by
the Azerbaidjahese to leave the city
because there is no work for them and
food Is scarce.
Around every station along the rail-
way are gathered groups of hundreds
of homeless people lying huddled to-
gether on the ground, the majority Of
them too weak even to try to help
themselves. From time to time the
stronger ones climb on freight cars and
move elsewhere, always seeking better
conditions, which do not exist. Two
hundred and sixty-three thousand
homeless refugees from Turkish Arme-
mia thus are constantly milling about
throughout Russian Armenia, max
Ing the relief work conducted by the
Americans a problem requiring infinite
patience and organizing ability.
"ThiS is especially true in view of
the existence of 24S,000 destitute in
habitants of Russian Armenia who pos
sess homes, but no food, as well as
100000 Greeks, Russians, Persians,
Syrians and Yezidis who have been
driven out of parts of Transcaucasia.
zone hundred and forty thousand
Moslems, whose villages were destroy
