It's Easy to Peel Off Your Tan or Freckles This Is what you should do to shed a spoiled complexion: Spread evenly over the face, covering every Inch of skin, a thin layer of ordinary mercollzed wax. Let this stay on over night: wash it off next morning. Repeat dally until your complexion is as clear, soft and beau ful as a young girl's. This result is inevitable, no matter how soiled or dis colored the complexion. The wax liter ally peels off the filmy surface skin, ex posing tlio lovely young skin beneath. The process is entirely harmless, so lit tle of the old skin coming ofT at a time, mercolized wax Is obtainable at any Drug store: one ounce usually suffices. It's a veritable wonderworker for rough, tanned, reddened, blotchy, pimpled or freckled skin. Pure powdered saxolite Is excellent for a wrinkled skin. An ounce of it dissolved in a half pint witch hazel makes a refreshing wash-lotion. This renders the skin quite firm and smooth: Indeed, the very first applica tion erases the finer lines; the deeper ones soen follow.—Advertisement.

A year ago a bulletin was Issued giv ing Information on abandoned or Idlo farms and this work is to be extended by obtaining data on farms which can bo bought. Secretary of Agriculture N. B. Critchfield has asked the newspapers of the State to assist and' in a cir cular letter says: "As a means of re ducing the cost of living by increasing production, this department is anxious to get farm lands Into possession of actual farmers who will place lands now lying idle under proper culti vation, and we are collecting, prepara tory to publishing in bulletin form, a list of farms in Pennsylvania that are for sale. Many such farms are in pos session of men too old to cultivate them, while younger men, frequently of foreign nativity, are anxious to buy such farms as they feel able to pa;' for " This activity Is In line with the sta tistical work and suggestions for in creasing the raising of beef cattle that ha* been undertaken in the last few years by the department. PASSES EXAMINATION Mlfflintown, Pa., Sept. 2. —Word was received here that J. Graybill Craw ford, son of Dr. and Mrs. D. M. Craw ford of this place had successfully passed the examination to the Naval Academy at Annapolis. For Acid Stomachs Use Magnesia The almost universal use of magnesia by physicians and specialists in the treatment of stomach troubles, is due to the fact that it stops food fermenta tion and neutralizes the acid—the direct cause of nearly all stomach troubles. Of the many forms of magnesia such as oxldies, citrates, carbonates, sulphates, etc., the most suitable and efficient, and the one prescribed by leading special ists is blsurated magnesia, a teaspoon* ful of which in a little warm water im mediately after eating will instantly neutralize the acid, stop fermentation, and thus ensure painless normal diges tion. Care should be taken to get blsurated magnesia, as Its action is in finitely more effective. It Is also, by the way, usually stocked by druggists In convenient compressed tablets as well as in the ordinary powder form. Stomach sufferers and dyspetics who follow this plan and avoid the use of pepsin, charcoal, soda mints, drugs ami medicines are invariably astonished to find that the stomach,trelieved of the irritating acid and gas. soon regains its normal tone, and can do its work alone without the doubtful aid of arti ficial digestants.—Advertisement.

MAJESTIC VAUDEVILLE It was an all-new, all-star bill of Keith vaudeville that the eager first audience of variety fans witnessed at the Ma.iestic this afternoon. The nice taftte of vaudeville that was handed out there as an opening bill is indeed improved upon by the present offering anrl this seemed to be the consensus of opinion of the big audience that 'was in attendance this afternoon. The bill starts in lively fashion by a spirited song and dance turn offered by the Three English Girls, who live up to their reputation of being "madcap dancers." . Walter Brower has some thing very novel and entertaining In the way of a comedy monologue and the Wharry Lewis Four, three young women and a man. offering a beautiful vocal and instrumental turn. It is beautifully staged and the talent of the artists Is far above the average. The fun of the bill, and in fact it's enough for a whole show, Is the screeching bit of tomfoolery in which Cantor and Lee appear. Cummins and Seham, vaudeville's best-known com edy tumblers, caused a riot of laugh ter. their every move and foolish feat of daring causing unrestrained laugh ter New and interesting feature films are also Included.—Advertisement. PAXTANG VAUDEVILLE Probably no singing act that has played the Paxtang Park theater has made a bigger hit with those who enjoy high-class singing than the Mllani Opera Troupe. The five young men who make up the act are excel lent vocal artists and their selections from the operas always bring forth a demand for several encores. The I other acts on the park bill are all of such quality as to make the closing showing of the park season one of the best entertainments of the sum mer. On Monday the Tyrone Band, with forty-five pieces, will give two free concerts at the park theater. This band has the reputation of being one of the best concert organizations in the state. A special holiday program has been arranged and special vocal soloists will be introduced in con junction with the concert.—Advertise ment. "JIM, THE PENMAN," AT THE RE (•ENT TODAV "Jim, the Penman," Sir Charles L Young's greatest dramatic, success, starring John Mason and appearing on the Paramount program, will be shown for the last time to-day at the Regent. Mr. Mason portrays with great force and dramatic discretion the title char acter, the man whose clever pen works so much harm even to his most dearly loved, and which finally writes with his hearts blood Ills own punishment. This notable play, created a veritable sensation at the time of its production on the stage. O. the screen It loses none of its force, and gains tremend ously in pictorial and scenic, value. To-day and to-morrow will he shown Paramount Travel Series. To-morrow and Friday Another Paramount film plav wil be shown, in which Lois Meredith and Owen Moore are featured. "Help Wanted" handles In a striking way the startling fact that many emnloyers, who would prob ably be on their best behavior in a girl's home, for some reason regard her as fair 'irey when she enters an office as an ei lploye. It is a drama of the. humiliations that lie in wait for any body's sister.—Advertisement.

Lady Katherine, the Earl's daughter, dresses up as a highwayman, meets the later holds up the King's messenger. She receives a sword wound in the shoulder, but se cures the warrant and burns it.

( \ TRAVELETTE By NIKSAH INDIO V— * Those trains that go to California by the southern route pause for a moment at a station half way across the great desert beyond the Colorado river and the passengers read the name. Indio. If it is winter the tem perature here is comparable with that In New York on a summer day, and If It is summer the heat is in sufferable. The thermometer regis ters 120 In the shade and the dust is so terrific that it is hard to decide whether the car windows shall be up or down. This Is the hottest place in the United States. Indio is below sea level and in the midst of a shifting sand waste that reaches for hundreds of miles In every direction. One rides for half a day on a fast train across this waste. There is but the continuous sea of sand stretch ing as far as the eye can reach. Be hind the two rails reach away into In finity until they seem to merge and are lost, in that mirage of the desert which presents to the traveler the ap parent vision of cooling waters. The only break is the Salton Sea where the glitter of sand gives way to the more blinding glitter of fields of white crystal salt as far as the eye can reach. The sands move hither! and thither and obliterate today the track that man made yesterday. The seasons pass and the track that man' made yesterday. The seasons pass and the region knows no rain, no veg etation, no visitation of man except in his fleeting by on the steel rails that have slashed across the waste. And Indio was planted in the midst of this. There a deep well was sunk and intersected some vagrant water current that rock formations had forced beneath this waste. A little stream gushed forth and created an oasis In the great American desert. At this moment of pause in the land of desolation the traveler glimp ses the green of trees that have here taken root. There is the reliable Cot tonwood, the date palm that has trav eled here from Egypt, the umbrella trees of China, a bed of scarlet flow ers, vegetables growing in a garden. The railroad maintains an eating house here, wooden and squat. There is a section house, a water tank. A i handful of people, blond, Anglo- Saxon, railroad folk, make their home in the oasis and seem not to know that their surroundings are unusual.

These years of labor: the amount of money required to introduce its merits to the public; the investment in its manufacture, including the most modern machinery, mean a vast amount of invested capital. It follows that the greatest care is exercised in the selection of each ingredient, and the greatest attention is paid to every detail of its preparation. The result is the practically perfect preparation in the finished product; Fletoher's Castoria. Herein lies the guarantee of the absolute safety in the use of Fletcher's Castoria for the baby, and the warning against irresponsible makers of imitations and counterfeits. The signature of Chas. H. Fletcher that is printed in black on the wrapper and red on the bottle is the mother's safeguard. For B Extracts from Letters by Grateful _ ' Parents to Chas. H. Fletcher. Mrs. John W. Derrick, of Lexington, S. C., Bays: "My children cry for Castoria, I could not do without it." Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Gaines, of Ripley, Tenn., say: "We enclose our baby's picture hoping it will induce some poor tired mothers to give your Castoria a trial. We have used it since baby was two weeks old." Mrs. J. G. Parman, of Nashville, Tenn., says : "The perfect health of my baby is due to your Castoria—the'flret and only medicine he has taken. He is never satisfied with one dose, he always cries for more." Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Johnson, of Stevens Point, Wis., aay : "When our baby was two weeks old he cried so much we did everything for him, then got some Castoria and he is now strong and fat. We would not be without it, and are very thankful to you." GENUINE CASTORIA ALWAYS BEARS Exact Copy of Wrapper.
