For Freckled, Rough or Muddy Complexion The freckling, discoloring or roughening to which delicate skins are subject after exposure to wind or sun, often appearing in early spring, may readily be gotten rid of. Ordinary mercolized wax. spread lightly over the face before retiring and removed in the morning with soap and water, completely peels off the disfigured skin. Get an ounce of the wax at any drug store or toilet counter. There's no more effective way of banishing freckles, liver spots, moth pi tches, pimples, or otiier cutaneous defects. Little skin particles come off each day. so ihe process doesn't even temporarily mar the complexion, and one soon acquires a brand new, spotless, girlishly beautful face. The mercoiized wax method is appreciated particularly by those who prefer “natural beauty'' to that which is obviously otherwise.—Advertisement.

BRITISH TROOPS AGAIN PATROL DUBLIN STREETS London Rumor Persists That De Valera Has Been Deposed. LONDON, April 10.— British troops made their appearance in Dublin today for the first time since they were withdrawn at the setting up of the Irish provisional government. They are patrolling certain districts of the city. It was explained at the colonial office that the British soldiers In Dublin are under orders to take only such steps as are necessary for their own protection. It is understood the troops are only guarding the British barracks and are not interfering with the movement of Irish Free State troops. There is as yet no confirmation of the report from Dublin that leaders of the mutinous faction of the Irish republican army at a secret meeting in Ireland, deposed Eamonn De Valera as chief leader of the Irish republican movement. Advices from Dublin say the rumor persists.
