AMERONGEN, Holland, Dec. 10 (By

siderably. Instead OF the ruddy COM
plexion he wore, his face has become
ashen, his hair and mustache gray and
his features deeply lined Since he has
lain abed with his Illness his face has
remained unshaven and the 70 hours
growth OF beard seems to have added
ten years to his age.
