Real Wonder-Worker
for WrinkIed Faces

Those who have tried all sorts of social
ed ''wrinkle-removers" in a vain effort to
lose those unwelcome traces Of age, illness
or worry, can scarcely find words to ex-
press their delight with the wonderful
saxolite formula, once they have given it
trial. The success of this method is due
not alone to its marvellous effectiveness
upon the deepest lines and crowsfeet, as
well upon ths very fine ones-but also
to its surprisingly quick action and its en-
tire harmlessness. Its simplicity and its
inexpensiveness are other commendable fea-
lures. for need only dissolve an ounce
of powdered saxolite in a half pint witch
hazel and bathe the face in this solution.
At once a remarkable transformation is be.
held.
It is not only the effect on wrinkles and
creases that is so noticea BILE. but facial
contour is remarkably improved and the
face looks much younger. One should be
sure to ask the druggist for the powdered
saxohte. The lotion, being so refreshing,
is very grateful to tired, perspiry faces

Essentially Democratic.

The moment he emerges from the
princely atmosphere he becomes
boy. On one occasion an American
woman induced a Canadian official to
introduce her. He forgot for the mo-
ment that he was a prince and they
had a lively little talk. At one step,
too, he danced with a very pretty
young woman. He had been self-con-
scious and nervous previously, but
laughed and chatted in the most in
formal manner with this girl. These
incidents were frowned on by the
suite, however. 1t was understood
that he was to give no interviews to
the press and he was hedged off from
| intimate talks with individuals. Yet
the essentially democratic character
| of his tour remained.
No such scene has been recorded in
| the recent history of British royalty,
! for example, as that at Halifax. when
he held a reception open to all a t the
residence of the governor general.
| Halifax officia1dom had planned re-
| ception by invitation at the arsto-
! cratic Waegwoltic Club, but that was
| called off. Instead a policeman stood
at the gate of the. governors resi-
dence and urged the townspeople to
go in and meet the prince.
Go on in and shake hands with
him." said the policeman, over and

Very Long Stage Wait.

foot to another, his eyes roam ed

himself There was an appalling
stage wait and then the feminine
members of the audience began to
giggle a bit. There was nothing loud
or obtrusive. 1t is doubtful if his
royal highness detected the fact. But
it is certain that a little nervous rus
tie of suppressed laughter went
through the room. 1t was not un-
friendly. Several ladies near me said
to each other: Poor little boy!
But it was laughter. The case was
made worse by the very friendliness
of the audience. After the prince
made his first response to the address
of greeting the audience applauded
him. The tide of applause swelled. 1t

Over in Washington some of our
most sterling democrats are begin
ming to worry about red carpets.
There is an affinity, they believe. be-
tween red carpets and princes. Ihey
see visions of miles of red carpets
siphoning out to the street from many
public buildings, and on those carpets
they see walking the Prince OF wales.
And behind the Prince OF wales are
many sterling democrats. AND out
in the street the proletariat will press
it's noses between the palings--
Only, this isn't that sort of prince
If he sees too much in the papers
about red carpets he is apt not to go
to Washington at all. That notice has
already been served on Newport

the Prince of Wales would visit the
Dominion every social leader in New

There is a suggestion that the mort

very definite statement that If the
American graspers did not stop try

Wales as a pawn in their social game,

has been trimmed down to visit to
Washington and another to New York
And there will not be many red car
pets at either place.
Times have changed since the late
King Edward visited Canada and the
United States. The prince and his
immediate party seem to realize this
better than the outsiders. At st. Johns
the lawn was covered on one occasion
with sturdy dowagers trying to crook
the pregnant hinges of the knee in an

He was friendly and courteous, but

In passing through a hospital at
Halifax he found the same difficulty
in saying something cheering and en-

The difference between the prince

that he seemed to mean what he said.
