How She Discarded
Unsightly Complexion
V
(Mona Morrow in Town Tattler.)
i How often I exclaimed as 1* beheld
Imy ugly complexion in the mirror. "If
) 1 only could tear off this old skin!"
And, do you know, I've learned how
to do that very thing? Not to actually
1 remove the entire skin all of a sudden;
that would be too heroic a method and
painful, too. I Imagine. The worn-out
cuticle comes off in such tiny particles,
and so gradually—requiring about ten
days to complete the transformation
it doesn't hurt a bit. Day by day the
beautiful complexion underneath conies
forth. Marvelous! No matter hpw
muddy, rough, blotchy or aged vour
complexion, you can surely discard it
by this simple process. Just get an
ounce of ordinary mercolized wax at
your druggist's, apply nightlv like cold
cream, washing it off mornings.
My wrinkles I got rid of by an equal
ly simple method. By dissolving an
ounce of powdered saxolitu in a tialf
pint witch hazel and bathing mv face
in the solution, every line completely
disappeared. First the finer lines, final
ly even the deeper crow's feet, vanish
entirely.
SURE WAY TO
END RHEUMATISM
Ease Stiff, Sore Joints and Mus
cles. Makes Pains and Back
ache Promptly Vanish.
It is needless to suffer any longer
with rheumatism, and be all crippled
| up, and bent out of shape with its
| heart-wrenching pains, when you can
surely avoid it.
Rheumatism comes from weak, in
active kidneys, that fail to filter from
i the blood, the poisonous waste matter
and uric acid; and it is useless to rulj
,on liniments or take ordinary reme
dies to relieve the pain. This only
prolongs the misery and can't poa
, sibly cure you.
"I he only way to cure rheumatism
is to remove the cause. The new dis
covery. Croxone. does this because it
neutralizes and dissolves all the pois
onous substances and uric acid that
lodge in the joints and muscles, to
scratch and irritate and cause rheuma
tism. and cleans out and strengthens
jthe stopped-up, inactive kidneys, so
they can filter all the poisons from
the blood and drive It on and out of
the system.
Croxone is the most wonderful
medklne ever made for curing chronic
rheumatism, kidney troubles, and
bladder disorders. You will find it
different from all other remedies.
There is nothing else on earth like it.
It matters not how old you are, or how
long you have suffered, it is practical
ly impossible to take it into the hu
man system without results. You will
find relief from the first few doses,
and you will be surprised how quickly
all your misery and suffering will end.
An original package of Croxone
costs but a trifle at any flrst-clajßs drug
store. All druggists are authorized
ito sell it on a positive money-back
; guarantee. Three doses a day for a
few days is often all that is ever need
| ed to cure the worst backache or over
| come urinary disorders.—Advcrtise-
STHID CLUSTERS
TO SET Mil PIM
OF PEIISV STATU
Pennsy Authorities Have Data on
Subject of Modern Lighting
System
The Pennsylvania Railroad Station
plaza will be lighted in the near future,
it is expected, by cluster standards of
the same type now in service in the
city's business district.
Plans for the installation have been
: submitted to the Pennsy authorities
by the Harrisburg Light, and Power
j Company.
A series of seven five-globe stand
l ards, to he placed around the circle,
!is the scheme contemplated. Lights
; are to be stationed at each side of
I the entrances from Fourth and from
' Market streets, another on the far
| eastern side of the concourse and the
I other two at the proper distances be
i tween to insure an equal distribution
; of the light.
Should the scheme be adopted as
' proposed, the ornamental lighting sys
: tem that has given so much satisfac
! tlon in the commercial district will
be extended to include the station
square. For years the old overhead
arcs have afforded the only light; of
! late years, however, electric signs on
; nearby buildings have helped some.
While the Pennsylvania Railroad
; authorities are considering the project
1 of continuing the clusters into the
! station plaza a plan for placing the
■ same kind of standards on the eastern
side of Third street from North to
i Walnut streets is also being consid
i ered, it is said, by S. B. Rambo, State
Superintendent of Public Grounds and
i Buildings.
Whether the State authorities will
take any definite steps toward placing
cluster standards on the park side of
Third street before the extension of
the Capitol Park zone is completed is
a question. It is possible that the
scheme may be carried out before the
park is extended. Sixteen of the clus
ters would be stationed between Wal
nut and North streets and it is be
lieved that if the State adopts the
scheme the city authorities will follow
i suit on the western side of Third
j street. Locust street from Second to
Third will be included.
Data for the placing of the flve
j globe clusters at the intersections of
Sixth and Maclay. Third and Verbeke,
| Derry and Thirteenth and Market and
Thirteenth streets is now in the hands
l of Commissioner H. F. Bowman, su
. perlntendent of public safety, and it is
I expected that an ordinance providing
1 for the extensions will be offered in
| the near future.
Work Is Progressing
on Wilson's Commerce
and Anti-trust Bills
Washington, D. C., Feb. 20.—Work
on the administration's anti-trust and
commerce regulation bills went for
ward on the House side of the Capitol
to-day.
A conference of the House judiciary
subcommittee on trusts, comprising
Representatives Clayton, Carlin and
Floyd, was arranged to put the finish
ing touches on the bill proposing to
prohibit holding companies from own
ing competing concerns.
Chairman Covington, of the' House
inter-state commerce subcommittee on
the inter-state trade commission bill,
was prepared to-day to go ahead wltlr
the executive conferences to frame the
measure in the light of hearings and
within the limitations of President
Wilsoa' suggestion to avoid any pro
visions that might impair the effi
ciency of the Sherman law. The indi
cations to-day were that the bills re
lating to holding companies, trade re
lations, interlocking directorates and
defining trade restraints would be pre
sented finally to the House as a single
plan to strengthen the anti-trust law.
