To Keep Skin White,
 Velvety, Wrinkle-Free

c. NJ. W. says: 'T perspire so exces- sively that powder makes my face streaky these days and creams make 1t greasy and shiny. What can I do?" Try the treatment recommended to "Anise"
 A. F. G. writes: My skin seems so loose and wrinkly in hot weather. What will help it?" Use a wash lo- ton made by dissolving 1 OF. powdered saxoiite in # pt. witch hazel. This is immediately effective in any wrinkled or flabby condition. Use daily for awhile and results will astonish you.
 Anise: A simple way to keep your skin smooth. soft and white is to ap- ply ordinary mercolized wax before This keeps the face free from the part icles of lifeless cuticle which con- stantly appear. The wax absorbs these worn-out particles, so the younger, fresher, healthier skin Is always in view. An ounce of mercolized wax may be had at small cost at any drug store. Use like cold cream.-Aunt Sally in Woman's Realm.

NORWICH TOWN
c. E. Society, at Lawn Meeting, Hears About Turkey = Memorial Service for Mrs. Edward GIancey-Birthday Celebration.

The bi-monthly missionary meeting of the Christian Endeavor society was held at six o'clock Sunday evening on the lawn outside the chapel. Miss Susan c. Hyde gave very interesting talks illustrated by her experiences, in Turkey. Miss Hyde gave three general reasons why people should be interest," ed in Turkey: First, the universal interest in the elevation of womannooo. Second, Turkey is more open now than ever before. Third, Turkey is a very difficult field in which to work and people are interested in doing difficult things.
 The four routes by which one might reach Turkey were described. The first is for those who do not desire an expensive trip and who enjoy long ocean voyage. Upon reaching Naples, a steamer is taken up the Mediterran- can to Constantinople. The second, a very expensive trip is to take a fast steamer to Liverpool and then cross from England to Paris, going from there direct to Constantinople. In talk ing the third route described, one has a chance to visit the chief places IT interest in Europe. The last, and least expensive route is to go from London direct to Marseilles by train and from there to Constaptinople by boat.
 There are many places of interest in Constantinople, especially those con- nected with the American Board, the most important being the Bible House which is the center of all religious work in Turkey. Within one half mile of the GalataL Bridge, one of the chief centers of interest in Constantinople. twenty dierent languag ges are spoken.
 Turkey is divided into three sta- tions, the Western, Eastern, and Gen. tral.
 The Western station is the one in which Mis- Hyde's work was located. At Aintab in the Central station IS the largest Bible school in Turkey, the membership nupmbering three thous- and. In the Eastern station is Van. nthe work of which place Norwich Town people are so interested.

part to the good offices OF the diplomatic
representatives OF the French and Ger
man Governments at Mexico city were
called to the Presidents attention. MIR.
Wilson had no information that such was
the case, but he let IL be known that 1t
would be pleasure for him to learn that
these good offices had been extended.
Later 1t was learned on official
authority that the O'Shaughnessy report
included the statement that friends OF
Huerta" had used their influence on him
to assent to the American demands.
OShaughnessy attributed considerable
weight to these influences.
This information from O'Shaughnessy
was viewed as confirmation of the report
that the German and French Ministers
did urge the recall of Huertas refusal
Although he evidently viewed the in
formation as having post-mortem impor-
lance the President personally confirmed
the statement that he contemplated APP
pealing to Congress for authorization in
the event that an act OF war became
necessary. He expressed the belief and
hope that no discussion on the part OF
Congress would be required
The President let II be known that he
deemed IL a welt recognized principle that
the Chief Executive has the unquestloned
right to take the immediate steps in pre-
cipitatng war. but he recognized that the
fact that the Congress IL now In session
would make the exercise OF this right
unnecessary. The President expressed the
belief that a so-called powerful blockade
does not constitute an act of war. but ne
pointed out that many difficulties were
involved in this course owing to the ques-
tons which could be raised as to the
treatment OF foreign vessels.
