A NEVER FAILING WAY
 TO BANISH UGLY HAIRS
(Aids to Beauty)

No woman is immune to superflu- ous growths, and because these are likely to appear at any time, it is advisable to always have some dela- tone powder handy to use when the occasion arises. A paste is made with some of the powder and water and spread upon the hairy surface; in about ? minutes this is. carefully re moved and the skin washed. You will then find that your skin is en- tirely free from hair or fuzz. Re sure however, to get real delatone.

lshii Doctrine
Prevailing Over
Flounderi'g China

PICKING, Dec. 27.-Will the Ishii
doctrine prevail in the Far East?
This question is er-shadowing all
others now in the Chinese press. The
efforts of Japan to delay the monarch
zeal movement in China, following i'm
mediately upon Baron Ishii's taking
over the foreign office in Toxic, has
moved the Chinese press 10 christen
Japans assumption of the direction of
Far Eastern affairs the Ishii doc
trine.
This policy of Japan, now some
what formally recognized by England,
Russia and France is discussed by
the Chinese press as comparable to
the Monroe doctrine.
Chinese resent very bitterly the
attitude of Japan. Vernacular papers
talk resistance with arms, and demand
that China shall not grant Japan's po-
sition, and the bitterness of last
spring towards the Japanese govern
I1ent has been revived.
So far China has not announced any
marked concession to the Japanese.
The press is unanimous in resenting
the crystalizaticn of Japan's policy of
.ssun.ing the direction of Far Eastern
affairs. This resentment has become
all the keener since the marked i'm
pTovement in Japans Industrial and
commercial conditions, and the an
nouncement that Japan has accum-
ulated specie reserve of fifty million
pounds. China formerly believed that
Japan was too poor to measure
strength with nations which resist her
leadership in the Far East. This be-
lief has now vanished, and the recog-
milton which Japan's allies have given
her in the Far East has led the Chin
csc to believe that the balance of DOW
er which formerly protected them in
their weakness has permanently dis
appeared.

JAPANESE BANKERS
PREPARING FOR
EXTENSIVE LOAN

Leading Japanese bankers have de-
cided that new domestic loan should
be raised to redeem foreign loans.
This decision is a result of the fact
that Japan has about $300,000,000 in
foreign loans which mature in ten
years. The idea is that upon the con-
clusion of the European war the
monetary circulation Of the world will
become stringent owing to the financ-
ial readjustments of the powers con-
cerned. How Japan should deal with
the situation forms difficult question.
The bankers think it advisable to raise
a domestic loan with a view to redeem
ing foreign loans while the money
market is now in a slack condition.
They think that the flotation of a do
nestle loan at this momene would not
only help adjust foreign loans but
would also moderate the monetary cir
culation at home.
Acting on this conclusion, the bank
ers will probably make representations
to the government In view of the
satisfactory result of the railway bond
issued some time ago, it is proposed to
issue the domestic loan at a price Of
IS IL yen, with interest OF per cent
redeemable in twenty years.
Mr.. Taketomi, minister of finance
announces that 100000 yen (s15,-
0o0,OO0) of the specie reserve will be
appropriated to redeem the railway
loans raised in England and which
will fall due in February next. An
other 100000 yen will be. employed
to pay off foreign bonds. He points
out that the specie reserve which al
ready amounts about 100000, OOC
yen will steadily increase
