A New Face W ithout Surgical Skin Peeling

The surgical operation of face peeling is too radical, too often dangerous. There's a better way of removing offensive complexions and one that is entirely safe and rational. Ordinary mercolized wax causes the devitalized scarf skin to come off, but gradually and gently. Unlike the surgical process, the skin is not forcibly taken off in big pieces all at once, but almost Invisible flakv particles are absorbed by the wax, and'about two weeks are required to complete the transformation. There's no pain, no discomfort.

Nature renews complexions the same way shedding tiny cutaneous scales dav'by day. But deficient circulation, or "other abnormal condition, may interfere with the shedding—a "bad complexion" results. Then mercolized wax assists Nature by hastening the removal of the aged, faded or discolored too skin Thus only the lively, young, hpalth-hued skin is in evidence as fn robust girlhood. This is why mercolwax produces the indescribable beautv ot ever-renewing youth. The wax Is put on at night like cold cream, washed off In the morning. You can procure it at any druggist's an jounce 1b sufficient

Zack Compton, living at Tweety-fifth street and Ashland avenue, and who were later arrested, is given by the police as the cause for an accident about 9:30 o'clock Tuesday night on the West Terre Haute grade, which resulted in the aged mother of Mrs. "W. O. Morris, living at Marshall, 111., being painfully injured, and the buggy they were driving being slightly damaged.

The accident occurred near the crematory, west of the river bridge, and was caused when the team driven by Mrs. Morris, who was coming east to the city, became frightened at the approaching gravel train. The team bolted, but two men who gave their names as Thomas Meredith and Frank Evefett, who were sitting on the bridge, caught the frightened horses. Just as the two men caught the reins the old lady fell out as the buggy began to tip over.

She was severely shaken up and sustained a few cuts and bruises. She is 72 years old. Mrs. Morris told the police, when they were taken to headquarters in the police auto, that if the car was stopped when she called a warning to the crew that the accident would not have happened.

She said the car crew was coming west from the bridge as she nearer] the approach. She knew, she said, the team would become frightened and screamed to the conductor to Btop, but Instead he gave a signal with his lantern to go ahead. The signal was obeyed by the motorman, she said, and the team bolted.

The car men were operating a gravel train and were pushing three gravel cars ahead of the car which was being operated by the motorman. The conductor was on the head car.

The conductor- and motorman were

Samuels said he believed if the car had been stopped when Mrs. Horris gave the signal, the accident would not have occurred.

Zack Compton, the motorman, said when they came off the bridge, the conductor gave him a "highball" to proceed which was followed almost immediately by a stop signal. He said he stopped his train and came back and helped get the horses on their feet and straighten out the ouss-y.

Manager T. F. Grover said: "These men should not have been arrested. If a person goes along carrying a lantern and something scares at it, is it right to put the fellow with the lantern in jail? I know that at no time was the car closer than fifteen feet to the verlcle. How can they be charged with assault and battery? That's what I would like to know." *c

both arrested following the statement of Mrs. Morris and later released on bond, signed at the jail. They were charged wlith assault and battery and through their attorney, Harry Wallace, pleaded not guilty in City Court Wednesday morning. On account of the absence of Mrs. Morris and her mother, the cases were continued until Friday afternoon.

The two men who stopped the team knew nothing of the accident until they heard the women scream. They told tho police they were too busy stopping the horses to give any heed to the lantern signals given by the conductor. They however, said the cars proceeded I on their journey, instead of stopping. I Charles Ward and Andrew Samuels, of St. Mary's, were behind the buggy and were coming to Tefre Kaute.

"Mr. Bingle's Melodrama," the film burlesque which will be shown at the Grand today and Thursday along with the sixth installment of "The Million Dollar Mystery." comes almost direct from the Vitagraph theater in New York, the home of high class film features. James Lackaye plays the part of a fat man who is so impressed by a melodrama which he witnesses that he decides to put on a similar show and play the hero. He makes the production, tries it out in a one night stand and has troubles a plenty. "Mr. Bingle's Melodrama" lasted four weeks at the fashionable Vitagraph theater on Broadway, where the prices of admission range from 25 cents to a dollar. One of the New York critics in a three quarter of a column review of this film insisted it was the funniest show on Broadway. In the cast are some of the best comic actors in filmdom. Flora Finch nlnvs the part of Flossy Hamm. a leading lady: Josie Sadler is Pearl Panknrci. a soubrette: Rose Tanley is a rival to Flossy: Kate Price is Mrs. ""•"Hover, a theatrical agent William Humphrey is the author Husrhie Mack is the bold bad villian William Shea plays half a dozen parts and Harry Northrup, Charles Eldridge and Jack Harvey are all well provided for. The film is in three reels. George D. Baker, one of the best of film directors, is the producer.

"Brewster's Millions," which, as a no\el, was one of the best sellers of its yep.r, and as a drama enjoyed wide 'popularity, wilh Edward Abeles as the star, comes to the Grand Friday and Saturday In film form. Mr. Abdlqs la
