NOTABLE TITLES
 BECOME EXTINCT Due to Death in Trenches
 of Sole Legal Heir CHANGES IN TERRACE Bring Into Prominence Complications and Anomalies of Laws of Suc- cessi0n-TO Attempt to
 Straighten Out Kinks

London August 20.-(Corresp pondence
 of The Associated Press )-The casu- olty lists of the British army have al- ready, after little more than year Of war. brought hundreds of changes in the British pccrage. Many heirs of great titles have fallen, and in numer- oIs cases the next heir ia now in the trenches. Several notable titles will become extinct as the result of the death of the sole legal heir Tho changes wrought in the peeraGe iy the death roll call into prominence the complications and anomalies of the laws of succession. and 1t Is possible that legislative action may be taken to straighten out some of the kinks which cause them to pass to some ob- scure relative without the shadow of a just claim to ennoblement. | As the law stands, succession is linn tied to direct male descendants, who may be as far removed from the last
 ! holder of title as a grandson of paternal uncle. Daughters have no
 claim whatever except by special act Of the King. as in the case of Lord Roberts.

It's Easy to Peel Off
 Your Tan or Freckles

This is what you should do to shed spoiled complexion: Spread evenly over the face, covering every inch of skin, thin layer of ordinary mercolized wax. Let this stay on over night; wash it off next morning. Repeat daily until your complexion is as clear, soft and beauti- evitable. no matter how soiled or dis colored the complexion. The wax liter ally peels off the filmy surface skin, ex- posing the lovely young skin beneath. The. process is entirely harmless, so lit- tie of the old skin coming off at a time. Mercolized wax is obtainable at any drug store. one ounce uSuafly suffices. It's veritable wonder worker for rough, tanned, reddened, blotchy, pim- pied or freckled skin.
 Pure powdered saxolite is excellent for a wrinkled skin. An ounce of it dis solved in a half pint witch hazel makes the skin quite firm and smooth: indeed. the very first application erases the finer lines; the deeper ones soon follow.
