How to Make a Real
Wrinkle Removet
In these days of cleverly advertised
"beautlflera" of 67 rarleties and more,
it is hard for a woman to believe she
can make a simple home remedy for
those hateful marks of age, worry and
Illness, which will do her more good
and cost her much less than the aver
age made preparation. There's noth
ing In the world so effective for re
moving or preventing wrinkles, crow's
feet and creases as a solution made by
dissolving an ounce of pure powdered
saxollte in a half pint of witch hazel.
Every druggist has the ingredients.
Use.this harmless mixture dally as a
refreshing lotion, bathing the face in
it two or three minutes at a time. The
quick and satisfactory results will sur
prize you. Even the first application
produces wonderful Improvement. The
wrinkles are less In evidence and the
face has a firm, "solid.'* comfortable
feeling.
How to Eradicate
All Superfluous Hair
Advice by a .Skin Specialist
As soon as women of to-day learn
that permanent removal of ugly, re
pulsive hair growths can only be gain
ed by reaching the hair root and not
by using common, worthless depila
tories such as burning pastes, powders,
evil-smelling liquids, etc., the better
It will be for their happiness and
safety. Nor can the electric needle be
depended upon to give satisfactory
results without danger of horrible
scars of facial paralysis. The best
means I have ever found that never
fails to remove all signs of disfigur
ing growths of hair on the face, neck,
arms or hands is a simple, inexpensive
preparation called Mrs. Osgood's Won
der. It Is absolutely harmless, cannot
Injure the skin or complexion and In a
surprisingly lnrg« number of cases has
succeeded In killing the hair down to
the very roots, source of all growth.
When the roots are killed no more hair
can grow. You can get Mrs. Osgood's
Wonder from Kennedy's Drug Store or
any up-to-date druggist or department
store. Signed Money-Back guarantee
with every package. Let me caution
you however, not to apply this treat
ment except where total destruction of
hair is desired.
WHAT DYSPEPTICS
SHOULD EAT
A PHYSICIAN'S ADVICE
"Indigestion and practically all forms
of stomach trouble are, nine times out
of ten, due to acidity; therefore stom
ach sufferers should, whenever pos
sible, a%-oid eating food that is acid
In its nature, or which by chemical
action in the stomach develops acidity.
Unfortunately, such a rule eliminates
most foods which are pleasant to the
taste as well as those which are rich
In blood, flesh and nerve building prop
erties. This is the reason why dys
peptics and stomach sufferers are
usually so thin, emaciated and lacking
in that vital energy which can only
came from a well fod body. For the |
benefit of those sufferers who have i
been obliged to exclude from their diet
all starchy, sweet or fatty food, and
are trying to keep up a miserable ex
istence on gluten products, I would
suggest that you should try a meal of
any food or foods which you may like,
in moderate amount, taking immediate
ly afterwards a teaspoonful of bls
urated magnesia in a little hot or cold
water. This will neutralize any acid
which may be present, or which mav
be formed, and instead of the usual
feeling of uneasiness and fullness, you
will find that your food agrees with
you perfectly. Bisurated magnesia Is
doubtless the best food corrective and
antacid known. It has no direct action
on the stomach; but bv neutralizing
the acidity of the food' contents, and
thus removing the source of the acid
Irritation which inflames the delicate
stomach lining. It does more than
could possibly be donp by any drug or
medicine. As a physician, I believe In
the use' of medicine whenever neces
sary, but I must admit that I cannot see
the sense of dosing an inflamed and Ir
ritated stomach with drugs instead of
getting rid of the add—the cause of
all the trouble. Get a little bisurated
magnesia from your druggist, eat what
you want at your next meal take soma
of the bisurated magnesia as directed
above, and see if I'm not right."—Ad

ing marriages that are bound by their
unsuitability to bring disaster upon
them, yet who beat upon their breasts,
and ask us to sympathize with them
when they are called upon to suffer
the misfortunes they Invoke on their
own heads.
It is absolutely true that ninety-nine
per cent, of the domestic miseries in
the world could be avoided if people
would remember that results follow
causes just as relentlessly in matri
mony as they do everywhere else in
nature.
An honest man does not go into
business with a notorious thief. lie
does not buy a house without having
a lawyer look into its title. He does
not purchase a horse without examin
ing its pedigree. He does not under
take to run a store without having
enough capital to finance the enter
prise.
But he will marry a woman who is
a silly little fool, and expect her to be
a wise and Intelligent helpmate. He
will marry a woman without knowing
what sort of a family she comes from,
and have his heart broken when his
children come into the world neurotic,
diseased little creatures, with a tainted
heredity,
A woman will marry a drunkard and
expect everybody to mingle their tears
with hers because she has a sot for a

Bill was sent back to his cell am
Montgomery followed him.
"Why did you do it. Bill?" asked the
young man. "Why did you do it?
The penalty is fifteen marks for every
month of yotir minimum sentence.
That means 2,700 marks against you,
and there Is an added day of sentence
for every three marks."
Bill had calmly taken 000 days, near
ly two and a half years, added time,
to help his companion. But he had no
time to talk over the matter now. He
addressed Montgomery brusquely. The
minutes were precious.
"The suit's gone," he said. "You've
got to beat it for the Hackensack
meadows by freight over on the other
shore. Leave the freight at Home
stead and make for the marsh grass.
It is sis feet and more high. They
can't track you through it You'll find j

if you can. Be careful about quick- '
sands. There's two quicksand holes
northwest of Homestead. Go in the j
other direction."
The old burglar talked rapidly and
without moving his lips. The words
came in a whispered streak to the
ears of Montgomery. Third term men
became ventriloqulul, and the rule of
silence falls beneath their skill.
He reached under Montgomery's mat
tress and pulled out a left hat "Slip
this under your blouse," he said.
He flipped over bis own mattress
and his quick fingers tore open the
under sheet of ticking. He found five
ten dollar bills sewed together as one.
"Put this in your kick," he told Mont
gomery. "You will need it Don't ask
any questions. There ain't time. I
had it slipped in from the outside."
In two minutes more they would say
goodby to each other if the escape was
successfully managed.
"Don't forget the old man. kid." Bill
said solemnly. "1 don't know how
much it coipits. but you might think of
me at night when you say your pray
ers. If you make out all right get a
personal in the Herald and sign it
'Kid.' 'The Butcher' is on bis good be
havior and gets the paper regular.
He'll watch for it and let me know.
Any kind of code you make up we
can dope out in here."
The bell sounded for mess formation.
Bill held out his hand, and Mont
gomery took it in both of his.

The open head of the oblong box In
tlje mnchine shop lay between the legs
of the table at which convict No. 00,-
108 made his record of machinery re
ceived and machinery shipped from
the prison. Apparently It was ready
to be taken from the prison.
Four men were staggering out of the
shop with a crated machine when the I
convict at the desk asked how many j
more pieces their wagon could take.
"One more." replied one of the men.
"Can you handle this long box to |
finish the load?"
"It's just right to finish up with for
the night"
"All right Take it out when yon
return. 1 may be out of the shop. It
is time to turn in. I will put it down
on my list as having been sent"
Montgomery was alone in tbe room
and at his desk. Outside he heard the

a lurid past, and bemoan herself be
cause he Is not faithful to her. She
will marry a moody, ill-tempered,
grouchy man, who is hard to get along
with and keep placated even In the
days of courtship, and she spends the
balance of her life complaining that
she's got a sore-headed bear for a
husband.
Of course, there are certain acci
dents that may occur on the matri
monial journey, and against which no
prudence can insure one. One la bound
to take some risk. A may lose
his health or his money. Occasionally
there is a man who waits until he Is
forty ears 'old to sow his wild oat
crop. Very rarely there is a woman
who develops a yellow streak in her
afler marriage. Sometimes a healthy
girl becomes a nervous, shrewish
virago of a wife.
These catastrophies of matrimony
do not happen often. As a general
tblng, the man and woman, after mar
rying, go on being exactly the same
kind of people they were before mar
riage, only a little more so, for there
Is something in marriage that brings
out what is best, or worst, whichever
is the stronger in the individual.
Does it take any prophet to foretell
the outcome of such a marriage? Is
there anything before the girl but mis
ery and regret? Does It not really
seem that anyone is a fit candidate
for a padded cell who would make
such a marriage expecting to be happy
in It ?
Yet this gfH is no sillier than the
thousands of other girls, and thou
sands of other men, who marry for
one thing and expect another, and
who deliberately go into conditions of
living that they know are bound to
bring misery, yet who consider them

men approaching. He bowed over his
desk for a moment and then disap
peared. A gray form wriggled feet
first into the box, and the end under
the desk suddenly closed with a slight
click.
The truckmen entered, shouldered
tbe cofliullke case and, finding it light
er than they had expected, hastened
their steps that they might quickly
finish with their job for the night
They passed out of tbe shop to the
quadrangle, heaved the box to the rear
of tbe loaded truck and roped it on.
It was nearly 11 o'clock, and the
stars were obscured by clouds. Arc
lights made tbe quadrangle as bright
as day and illumined the high walls
and every nook and corner. Sentries
in their little octagonal boxes stood
with their rifles in band, keeping a
sharp lookout
A team of powerful horses tugged
at the burden, and the load of machin
ery was started out At the gate the
head truckman told the guard that
his job was done for the night and
gave him a slip containing the list of
pieces intrusted to him to deliver at
the Osslning freight station.
In another half minute convict No.
60,108 was outside of the wall of Sing
Sing. He braced himself with his
knees and elbows when the truck jolt
ed over rough places in the road.
Bill had told him that he wrfuld find
a path down the cliff a half mile north
of the prison. It would lead to the
railroad tracks. He was to find it and
get away from main roads.
Montgomery counted on one hour be
fore his tier guard would demand an
explanation of his absence at tbe ma
chine shop and then give tbe alarm.
He estimated tbe distance by the
sperfd of the horses and at the proper
moment released the end of the box.
He drew himself forth and tumbled,
with a sldewlse twist to the soft, earth
road. On hands and knees be scram
bled Into the shadow of some bushes
and took his bearings.
The road was deserted and the
houses all dark. The only sound was
the creaking of the load of machinery,
which rapidly became fainter and
fainter. 110 plunged down tbe path
and at the bottom of the cliff turned
and ran to the south through the little
tunnel under tbe prison.
There were six miles to cover to Tar
rytown, then three and a half miles
across the Hudson to Nyack and then
a mile and a half westward to the
West Shore railroad, which would take
him to the meadows of Newark bay.
Bill's Inside lnformaton was that at
West Nyack he would get an express
freight at four In the morning. It
would not stop until Homestead was
reached. There some of the cars would
be shunted to tbe Erie tracks, and be
would be able to slip into the tall
marsh grass just as day was breaking.
Montgomery had five hours in which
to make the schedule outlined for him
by his burglar friend. He took the cin
der path between the tracks, brought
bis clinched hands to his chest and
started to run in a swinging stride,
bis mouth closed and bis head thrown
back.
It was not easy going, for the prison
brogans are made of heavy, stiff leath

to his task below the sea. His heels
and toes were badly blistered by the

end of his second mile, and he was
compelled to stop and rest- He did not
dare lie down for fear that fatigue
might close his eyes In sleep.
When his feet had cooled and his
breathing had become normal again he
climbed to the top of a great rock and
looked toward Ossining. In the velvet
distance he could see the prison lights
high on tiie cliff above the village sta
tion. Below the cliff he saw tiny lights
twinkling, and at first he thought thein
fireflies. His years within prison walls
had destroyed his sense of perspective.
He studied these will-o'-the-wisp lights
and soon realized that they were from
lanterns swinging in the hands of men
hunting him.
The fugitive turned, threw hack his
hend and began to run. He increased
his speed gradually until he struck a
gait he thought he could hold for an
hour without rupturing a blood vessel.
The torn skin on his heels fell away
under the chafing of the heavy leather
and exposed the quick of his flesh.
Blood began to fill his shoes, but as he
ran he kept telling himself that he
could well afford to suffer ten times
the torture if he reached bis goal—bis
liberty.
He felt as if he, had discarded his
number and was once again James
Montgomery, a human being, out in
the open, the ground beneath him and
the river running beside him. It was
early summer, and the cool night air
was sweet with the fragrance of
breathing flowers and fields.
Ahead of him showed the northern
boundary lights of Tarrytown. Once
he looked over his shoulder as he ran,
but he could not see the lanterns of
the hunters. He was beginning to
gather stronger hope of ultimate es
cape when the will-o'-the-wisp lights
showed ahead of him. He stopped
short in his tracks.
It was evident that the Sing Sing of
ficials had telephoned the police of sur
rounding villages. To his left was the
open country, but with villages every
three or four miles and from each vil
} lage perhaps a squad of men- with
lanterns, forming a circle to close in
on hitn.
To his right were the river and the
country beyond, a country he knew as
only one could know who roamed it in
boyhood. He lost no time in deciding.
Montgomery ran to the river's edge
and stripped off the heavy prison
shoes. He peeled off the blood soaked
socks and from one of them took the
money Bill had given him. This he
tied in an end of bis shirt under the
blouse. Then he hid the shoes and
socks under a pile of rubbish and wad
| ed out into the river.
The clouds still covered the stars
overhead, and the river was black as
a river of ink. As the water reached
his armpits he threw himself forward
and began to swim with a quiet, un
derhand stroke for the other shore.
The tide was flowing out, and he be
gan to cross diagonally to get the full
advantage of the current. He figured
that, with a steady stroke, he would
land Just south of Nyack nnd in the
great, friendly shadow of Grand View.
Reaching the middle of the river, he
cbmged his stroke. Until now he had
kept his shoulders under water, swim
ming underhanded. Now he used the
fast and powerful overhand swing of
the arms, resting himself from time to
time by rolling on either side and us
ing the easier side stroke. i
