r_____.'— DANIELSON There was revealed in the town court [wursday afternoen, in the arraignment ¥ Walter H. Showers and Edward J. Say, both of Elmville, a highway rob- bery scheme that unfolds a story as pretty as:a movie scenario, And like every good silent drama, the robbers are esught in the act and brought before a eonrt of Jastiee. , Showers and Gay were charged with attempting to commit robbery on Guy Zyeo of Putriim, owner and operator of a pubMe service automobile. The palr pleaded gutty. Judge W. Fenner Wood- ward' decided that the seriousness of the erfme called for a sentence heavier tham his court was permitted under the wtatwies to pronounce therefore ordered the defendants held for the next term of the superfor court having _criminal jurisdiction and fixed bonds in_each case at $1,500. Unable to obtain shrety, Gay and Showers were taken to Brooklyn jail. The two made their first attempt at | ‘obbery Tuesday night. One of them walled up Putnam and asked for a ma- *hine, requesting that either Guy Zyto | w Carl Anderson, be sent down to the Timville trolley station with car. Ar. Zyto went and Gay entered the ma- *hine alone. He asked to be driven up | 1 his | » Fast Killingly.

HOT SUMMER SUN TRYING 3 ON THE COMPLEXION fROTECT YOUR SKIN AND BRING ROSES TO YOUR CHEEKS Y Y A Free Oatmeal Prescription Does Its Work Over Night—Yeu Can Pre- Pare It at Home. New York.—Exposure to sun, dust and wind has a very bad effect upon the skin | and complexion. There is a way to over. come this. “It is my own discovery and takes just one might to get such mar- velous results.” says Mae Edna Wilder when her friends ask her about her won- derful complexion and the improved ap- pearance of her hands and arms. “You can do_the same thing if vou follow my advice.” she says. “I feei it my duty to tell eve irl 'and woman what this wonderful prescription did for me. Just think of it. All this change in a single night. I never tire of telling others just | what brought ahout such remarkable re- sults. Here is the identical formula that removed every defect from my face, neck. hands and arms. Until you try it vou torm no idea of the marvelous change it will make in just one application. The prescription, which you can prepare at your own home, is as follows: “Go to any grocery store and get ten cents’ worth of ordinary oatmeal, and from any department or drug store a bottle of Derwillo. I’repare the oatmeal | as directed in every package of Derwillo. Before avplying Derwillo, cleanse the skin thoroughly wit ha good cleansing cream. (Liska cold cream I have found to be the best) The first application will astonish vou. It makes the skin appear transparent. smooth and velvety. 1 es- pecially recommend. this method for dark, sallow skin, shiny nose. freckles, ruddi- ness. wrinkies, and, in fact, evéry blem- ish-the face, hands and arms are heir to. 1f vour neck or chest is discolored from exposure, apply this combination there and the objectionable defezt will disap- pear as if by magic. It is absolutely harmless and will not produce or stimu- late a growth of hair. Since short sleeves are in vogue it is necessary to |tion will work a wonderful transforma- 1921 have beautiful hands and arms and no matter how rough and ungainly the! hands and arms, or what abuses they | have had through hard work and ex- posure to sun and wind, this combina- tion. Thousands who aie using it report the same results I have had.” Miss O. C. says: “My complexion was poor and my skin rough. My neck. chest, hands and arms were dark from ex sure. The very first application of this wonderful Derwillo-oatmeal combination convinced me that my poor complexion and skin blemishes would soon be a thing of the past. In a few weeks all; these unsightly defects had entirely dis- appeared and I shall always use it to keep my complexion at its best ail the time. T have recommended it to my girl friends and they are just as enthusiastic over it as T am. We all use it before going to the theatre, damces or parties and it's wonderful what a difference it makes in our appearance.” Mrs. G. V. writes: “Oatmeal and Der- willo have worked miracles with my complexion. I had many despised wrin- kles and a sallow, rough skin. My hands and arms were covercd with freckles. After eight weeks' use of Mae Edna Wilder's wonderful complexion prescrip- tion these objectionable devects have enm- tirely vanished. I look 10 years young- e every girl and woman to y and feel confident after one or two applications they will use it continualiy and be just as favorably impressed with | it as T am. 1 recommend it to all of my friends.” i NOTE—To get the best effect be sure to follow the comnicte _diractions contained in erery pack- age o, Derwillo, and it is 0 simple that any- one can use it and so Inexpensive that any girl or weman can fford it.
