| This Leaves the Skin
j Free From Hairy Growths
(Toilet Talks')
A simple method for completely re
moving every trace of hair or fuzz is
here given. This is painless and usually
a single treatment will banish even
stubborn growths. To remove hairs,
make a thick .paste with some powdered
delatone and water, spread on hairy
surface and after about 2 minutes rub
off, wash the skin and the hairs are
gone. This method will not mar the
skin, but to avoid disappointment, be
certain you get delatone.—Adv.

at the request of citizens of the upper
end town to secure evidence in the il
legal liquor traffic, was the principal
tanget for the attorneys representing
the men against whom various £harges
were brought, while Constable Thomas
Kane, of the county, was either direct
ly or by intimation, charged with be
ing a "farmer of costs" and bring the
cases 6»lely for what he might receive.
TO FIGHT TOWN"EXTENSION
Dissatisfied Minority Plan to Attack
Council and Its Legislation in
Court Proceedings
f '
Waynesboro, May 12.—Although
those who favored the extension of the
'borough limits are in the majority and
despite the fact that the town Council
is planning to give the former suburbs
the same improvements and conveni
ences as are now being enjoyed in the
town proper, it is stated authoritative
ly here to-day that court proceedings
are to be 'begun to prevent the an
nexation of the new districts.
Charles Walter, au attorney, it is
said, has been engaged by the dissatis
fied ones, who number about a hundred,
and will attack the borough legislation
under which the borough limits were ex
tended. The plan, as reported here to
day, is to bring a suit in equity and
have the Court issue a preliminary in
junction directed to the borough Coun
cil restraining that body from carrying
out its improvement and extension
plans. The suit is to be lodge,! shortly,
it is said.

New York, M>ay 12. —Day in and

Julia Sanderson's Secrets
Julia Sanderson, who appears to
night at the Majestic, says:
'' There is nothing so lovely in tho
world as just a girl. Leave the so
called 'beauty-restorers' to people who
are no longer young and who must fight
to keep their youth. Be girlish and
simple.
"The most noticeable thing about
the young girl of to-day is her hair.
Why will pretty girls make scarecrows
of themselves with the most extreme
and ridiculous headdresses they can af
fect!
"Oftentimes a very young girl adds
ten years to her age simply by the way
she arranges her hair, and it does seem
such a pity!
"The round-face girl should always
wear hats with brims, while the girl
with a long face may wear turbans.
Hats should be simple in shape, the
little tri-corner hats are adorable for
girls—they seem to exude youth—and
are becoming to the most hard to
please.
"Above all things else, though, have
very little trimming on your hats; over
trimmed hats are impossible, particu
larly for the young.
"Notice that in these days many of
the older peoplo are wearing simple
hats, while the young girls are all over
dressed and top-heavy." Adv.*

That the Victoria is fast coming into

Rivals Jonah." This great laugh pro
voking comedy is in two parts and fea

famous comedian, Charlie Chaplin.
"The Kite," a strong two-part K. B.
production, and "The Movie Fans"
round out an exceptionally attractive
bill. To-morrow wo present "The

screen favorite, Carlyle Blackwell,
plays the stellar role. Adv.*
Edith Taliaferro at the Regent
In the Paramount production of
"Young Romance," presented by Jesse
L. Lasky at the Regent theatre to-dav
and to-morrow, there is a dual interest.
Edith Taliaferro, whose wonderfful
work in "Polly of the Circus" made
hor an international star, plays the prin
cipal role in the successful play by Wil
liam C. DeMille. Her ability is well
known to Harrisburgers, and supported
as she is by an able company of stars,
nothing but success has ever come of
"Young Romance.' But Edith Talia
ferro is not the only person in the play
who interests Harrisburgers. The other
star is Mrs. Lewis McCord, widow of
the late vaudeville actor, whose home
was in this city, and brother-in-law of
the late George Wanbaugh, who was
one of the best-known newspapermen
in this city. Mr. McCord's real name
was Landis Wanbaugh, but when he
went on the stage he assumed the name
under which his widow now travels.
When Mr. and Mrs. McCord appeared
here in a vaudeville house they present
ed a sketch, "Welly Jones' Scoop,"
