How to Look Years
Less Than Your Age

The most aged face will look years
younger after the use of ordinary mer-
colized wax for from ten days to two
weeks. This remarkable substance, be-
cause of its peculiar absorptive power
actually removes the thin veil of faded
or withered outer cuticle, a little at a
time. Gradually the fresher. more youth
full skin underneath is revealed. This
absorption process being a purely ny
gienic one, an entirely natural complex
ion is acquired-quite different from the
artificial complexion, which appears any
thing but girlish though often bearing
painful evidence of childishness. An
ounce of mercoliZed wax, obtainabie at
any drug store, is sufficient to reiuvenate
any complexion 1t is put on like cold
cream at bedtime land removed morn

CHURCHILL COMPELS
BRITISH HOUSE OF
COMMONS TO LISTEN

Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
London, Friday March 2o-William
Ewart Gladstone was the last British
statesman who could make popular read
ing with a speech expounding the an
nual budget of government appropria-
tons. Winston Spencer Churchill has
done the same thing for the naval esti-
mates. The young first lord of the Ad-
miralty compelled the House of Com
mons to listen for two and half hours
while he gave a review of the latest
achievements in naval science so inter-
esting that even the little navy men
kept their seats to the end.
Battle between great modern iron clads
the first lord described as more like a
battle between two egg shells striking
each other with hammers than two men
in armor striking at each other with
heavy swords.
"The offensive power of modern bat
tleships is out of proportion to their de-
fensive power. Never was the dispropor-
ton so marked. In the light of that
illustration the awful Importance of good
gunnery must come home to us-the i'm
portance of hitting first and hitting hard
and keeping on hitting, and the necessity
of spending money in arriving at the
highest possible efficiency"
Mr.. Churchill believes that the British
navy leads the world in flying. The ad-
miralty now possesses Is airships. 10 of
which are large vessels OF over As miles
an hour speed with 81 sea planes and Al
ordinary aeroplanes.

made has been remarkable. and he
