When I wipe it off. all that (dogs the skin comes with it. The skin is absolutely clean. Facial Youth also carries factors to whiten and firm the skin. There

Stockholders. o Favors Leavin Europe (Continued from page one) Anglo-French friendship, blit in the , end he is firm in his purpose. The reception of tjie British note is now a foregone conclusion, and France will reply within a week from now that site intends proceeding against GePmany in the future exactly as in th past. Two Courses Open Britain has two alternative courses before her. First, she can submit to the Fr< neb decision which will make her recent action with its loud press talk of retaking the lead in Europe, l once more lock rather ridiculous and humiliating. Second, she can definitely break with France and conclude what must finally end in an economic alliance with Germany against a former ally. This last proposition has only to be stated nakedly for all men to see how impossible it would look to British public opinion—at least for many years to come. If then these were the only alternative courses, the . British foreign policy would seem to be in a bad i way- in fjet practically bankrupt. I 1 .however, believe there is a third, and wiser plan open to British states-, men whereby we need not quarrel

with nor be subservient to France nor yet ally ourselves with Germany. 1 “Clear Out of Europe" It is to clear out of Europe, and wh'le taking what we can get from European markets, devote our surplus energies to the peaceful devel-| opmcnt of the British empire. This we shall never be able to do as long 1 as our national attention is concentrated in Paris or Berlin and the national pocketbook is drained by insuring safety with armaments against some European war into which we, shall be dragged inevitably unless we cut completely clear of the tangle France thinks she can successfully settie her account with Germany by h*r own methods. Let her see to it., Britain should not quarrel with her on this account nor yet uphold her. j, Britain, without ignoring her commerce, should turn to developing her, own markets within the empire and overseas. This was the essence of Bonar Law’s foreign policy and I do not believe his successors in Dowing street can improve on it. because it was founded on the same rock of faith and hard reality as the world in which we live.
