Business at the court house prac-

To Overcome Redness,
Tan. Freckles, Wrinkles

If your skin is unduly redeemed,
freckled or tanned dab a little pure
mercolized wax on the face and allow
it to remain over night. When you
wash off the wax in the morning, fine
flaky, almost invisible particles of
cuticle come with it. Repeating this
daily, the entire outer skin is absorb
ed, but so gradually, there's not the
slightest hurt or inconvenience. Even
the stubbornest freckles are affected
The underlying skin which forms the
new complexion is so fresh and youth
full looking, you'll marvel at the trans
formation. It's the only thing known
to actually discard an aged, faded,
muddy or blotchy complexion. One
ounce of mercoiiZed wax, procurable
at any drugstore, is sufficient in most
cases.
If sun and wind make you squirt
and frown, you're bound to cultivate
wrinkles and crows feet. To over
come these quickly, battle the face in
solution made by dissolving an
ounce of powdered saxolite in a half
pint of witch hazel-Adv.

AMERICA WILL
[continued From Page one.l

England prevented neutral trade with
Germany and proclaimed a war of
starvation. Our faint hope that Amer
lea, at the head of the neutrals, would
check English illegality was vain and
the attempt we made by an honorably
intended peace offer to avoid the last
extremity failed.
Then Germany had to choose this
last measure as a counter measure of
self-defense. Now also it must carry
1t through for the purpose of shorten
ing the war. The submarine war is
accomplishing all and more than all it
is expected to.
"FatherIand No Service"
False reports which found their way
in the press as a result of the secret
session of the Reichstag evoked for a
time a certain feeling of disappoiht-
ment which ended at particular time.
They did the fatherland no service.
Il declare, in fact, that the sub
marine war accomplishes- in the de,
struction Of enemy tonnage what 1t
should. 1t impairs England's eco

unprecedented in the worlds history.
Our thoughts also turn to our true

Surrounds Granting
of Victoria Cross To Officer
In Anti-Submarine Service

The official notice of the honor to
Sanders says merely: I'm recognition
of conspicuous gallantry, consummate
GOODNESS and skill In command of one
OF His Majesty's ships in action"
Commander Campbell was actually
decorated by the king before the
award was published in the Oficial
Gazette and he received also the Dis
tinguished service or medal under
similar circumstances a short time
earlier and was given special promo
ton over the heads OF about 700 Off
GERS. Current rumors ascribed his re-
markable preferments to work against
submarines.
Promotion Is Remarkable
The advancement of Sanders has
been even more remarkable. He was
a commander in the naval~reserve as
q sub-lieutenant year ago. The rule
is that an officer shall serve as lieu
tenant before getting further advance
ment but he has risen by special dis
pensation from sub-lieutenant to lieu
tenant commander in less than a year
Sanders is a native of New Zealand
and is 80 years old. He was an officer
on sailing ships from the age of 49,,
and came to England early in 1915
with the idea of entering the navy
obtaining commission after slight
delay.
'He is one of the most capable
youngsters we have picked up since
the war began" said an officer at a
naval base the other day. "Of course
we all know why he got the V. c., but
it is of such peculiar nature that
nothing could possibly be published.
You may properly say, however, that
it was one of the most brilliant minor
engagements of the war;
