How to Look Yean Less Than Your Age
The most aged face will look years younger after the use of ordinary mercollzed wax for from ten days to two weeks. This remarkatle substance, because of its peculiar absorptive power, actually removes the thin veil of faded or withered outer cuticle, a little at a time. Gradually the fresher, more youthful skin underneath is revealed. This absorption process being a purely hygienic one, an entirely natural complexion is acquired—quite different from the artificial complexion, which appears anything but girlish, though often bearing painful evidence of childishness. An ounce of. mercolized wax, obtainable at any drug store, is sufficient to rejuvenate any complexion. It is put on like cold Cream at bedtime, and removed mornlngs with warm water.
To eradicate euch age marks as wrinkles and furrows, make a wash lotion by dissolving 1 oz. powdered gaxollte in pt. witch hazel. This has wonderful astringent and tonic properties. It quickly effaces all kinds of wrinkles, no matter
young looking.

CHICAGO. April 22.—While preparedness advocates paraded Chicago with a model dodo bird tonight in opposition to the dinosaur—"all armor and no brains"—parade of the pacifists, the heart of the central states pulsed with a new spirit Of militarism. On all hands new regiments were being organized. It seemed that the dodo bird paraders, who placarded the streets with pictures of this ancient bird, termed by them the first pacifist, who couldn't fly, couldn't run, and made a noise like a goslin," had the best of it. The moving picture thea tres displayed on their screens signs that read like this: "Your country heeds you enlist today in Uncle Sam's army."
Hand bills on street corners urged enlistment, the shooting galleries'were crowded, and the recruiting stations jammed. Business men, college graduates and the society men of the north shore clubs formed new militia companies. A complete cavalry regiment, the second in the state, was ready to turn its services over to the president.

Without referring to the GermanAmerican crisis, the pontiff made the Eastertide the occasion for an appeal to all nations now neutral to refrain from entering the world war. He urged anew that the nations at war lay down their arms.

Colony Fears Break.
It is quite possible that Monday will see the arrival in Berlin of a large number of Americans from interior cities of Germany, in the belief that a break is imminent. Consular officials and many Americans have applied in advance for transportation to neutral countries, should a break come.
Consul General Lay cabled Washington this afternoon after a conference with Ambassador Gerard that some arrangements should be made at once to care for Americans who may be stranded in Germany without funds if diplomatic relations are severed. Of about 1,000 Americans in Germany, Lay estimated that at least half are without sufficient funds to carry them to neutral countries in the event of a break.
WASHINGTON HOPEFUL.
Advices From Berlin Indicate Way Out May Be Found. WASHINGTON, April 22.—American evidence having convinced the German embassy that a German torpedo struck the Sussex, the administration tonight hoped to know In a few days whether President Wilson's message to Berlin has convinced Germany such attacks must cease. There is no indication that the German foreign office shares the embassy's conviction that the submarine case, so far as the Sussex is concerned, is conclusive. Embassy officials withheld comment tonight.
Word received in Washington today both from official and unofficial sources tended to arouse hope for a satisfac tory outcome of the gravest issue that has arisen between this counry and Germany. Ambassador Gerard, at Berlin, in communicating to Secretary Lansing word that he had received and delivered the president's note, and that prompt attention to the document has been assured by the Berlin foreign office, is understood to have sent some interesting information oh how the communication was received in Berlin. Following the receipt of advices from Gerard the administration was hopeful, but the situation is still admitted to be grave.

Crabb testified that he conducted a "blind tiger" and gambling room in the Central block, which was owned by Mayor Bunch, Tim Littlefield and himself, and that the three divided the profits equally. The witness asserted that Luther Flatter, a supposed drug

store owner, conducted a -blind- tiger and acted as collector in the operation of slot machines in the drinking places. He declared that he himself collected part of the fund assessed against blind tiger keepers for the "wet" campaign two years ago.
Crabb said when he was indicted some time ago for conducting a blind .tiger, that Dr. Fred Bunch advised him to leave town for a time.'
Graft on Beer Agents.
Mayor Bunch assessed brewery agents in Muncie fifty cems on each barrel of beer sold, according to Crabb, who said the money was divided equally in the mayor's office each Monday morning among Mayor Bunch, Deputy Prosecutor Williams and Flatter, who acted as collector. Out of the revenue from gambling devices, Crabb said Flatter was instruorted to give Dr. Bunch $40 a week.
Crabb also related an attempt to "fix" the grand jury which later indicted a number of public officials and asserted that blind tigar operators and gambling house proprietors we:e assessed $5 each for the purpose, but that tle plan failed.

of the move, but it was regarded as incidental' to the recent Parral trouble, and the subsequent warning—by whose authority It is yet to be determined— for American soldiers not to move a "foot further south" than they then were. Secretary of War Baker expected a report from Chief of Staff Scott at San Antonio before morning. Upon this may devolve important developments. Thus far, the administration has determined upon no new step.
Wait Scott's Report.
As the situation now 3tands, there is no immediate intention of withdrawal, but if facts in Scott's report take a certain trend, withdrawal will be the answer.
Removal of forces, however, will only occur if the administration is convinced that breaking up Villa's bands is accomplished, it was said tonight. If facts take a darker hue than they have recently, considerable reinforcement of the columns may have to be considered, but the general idea here is that Scott's mission will mean withdrawal within a comparatively briev' period.
Movements of Carranrista troopi from Chihuahua and out of Pulpit Pass, Sonora, cbnstitutes a "touchy" situation, authorities admit. Reports of Felix Diaz's activities in Mexico so disturbed Mexican Ambassador Arredondo today that he asked the department if it would give him facts about the revolutionists' actions. The department could not, except in a general way.
No news messages reached the Var department all day except the report of the 24th infantry movement. The state department had virtually no messages of a positive character.
EL PASO, Texas, April 22.—Bread riots in which women were crushed to death, an ti -American demonstrations and Carranzista negotiations with bandits looking toward peace, were disclosed by the arrival of a train from Mexico here today. The glimpse behind the Cirranza censorship was afforded by an American citizen who came from Durango City and Torreon.
