Bar Rooms Possess Little Charm For Bluejackets Abroad BASE AMERICAN FLOTILLAS IN BRITISH WATERS, Aug. 3. Black coffee is the popular drink with the men over here in Uncle Sam's teetotal navy. Steaming hot coffee is always cn tap on board the destroyers when they are out looking for submarines. The men say it not only keeps them awake but serves also as a stimulant and protector against the rigorous climatic conditions under which they labor. They have not yet carried on board ship the afternoon tea habit which they have formed ashore and found such a satisfactory substitute for the use of alcoholic drinks. The vast majority of the men say they do not miss the absence of intoxicating drink on board their ships. Those who want it can get it ashore from mid-day until eight in the evening but for the vast majority the liquor saloons have very little charm. The record of the men as a whole in this respect, say their officers, has been one of the gratifying features of their ptay here. The patrols, therefore, have very little to do but walk up and down the main street of the village in search of trouble that seldom come?.

Ship Search-Light Breaks up Radicals Meeting In Anthens VOLQ. Greece, Aug. 3. A searchlight of a British cruiser recently disrupted a street meeting of the supporters of King Constantine who were loudly declaiming protests against the rule of the Entente Allies. "Down with the dogs of Allies," shouted one royalist afferent. "Curse Venizelos," "Long live King Constantine," were among the cries of the speakers. The meeting had reached the zenith of enthusiasm when suddenly every Royalist started as if he had been shot. Through the sultry blackness of the June night had struck a brilliant beam of illuminaion. It came from a searchlight of the English ship and it had fallen and rested full upon them. It never wavered. It seemed to be looking into the face of every man of them a3 if to see who would speak next. The words died away on their lips. The search-light simply stared them into silence. They figeted and whispered to each other for a few minutes and then slipped away into the grateful obscurity of the surrounding darkness. After that the searchlight was master of the situation.

MEXICO, CITY, Aug. 3 A clash between Heinrich Von Eckhardt. the German Minister to Mexico and Mexican newspaper photographers in which it is declared that the German diplomat came to blows with the newspaper men, enlivened the recent session of the Mexican National Commercial Congress held here. Herr Von Eckhardt is the man who was directed by Dr. Alfred Zimmerman, then German Foreign Minister, to make arrangements to bring Mexico with Japan into war with the United States. He, with other members of the diplomatic corps, and President Carranza attended the opening session of the Congress.

I Newspaper photographers sent to

snap the president set up their cameras in the aisle close to the German minister who was seated at the end of the row of seats to keep him as far distant as possible from the representatives of the Entente allies who occupied the same row. Von Eckhardt protested, in what the photographers described as a rough and caustic manner, that he did not intend to be annoyed by photographers, but the camera men paid little attention and photographed President Carranza and the diplomatic corps from the most available spot which was directly behind Von Eskhardt When the flashlight charge exploded, say the photographers, Von Eckhardt remonstrated not only with words but with blows. El Excelsio, in commenting on the incident the next morning declared that a diplomat of Von Eskhardt's experience should have learned before this how to conduct himself toward the press.

The freckling, discoloring or roughening to which most skins are subject at this season, may readily be gotten rid of. 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 druggist's. There's no more effective way of banishing tan, freckles or other cutaneous defects. Little skin particles come off each day, so the process itself doesn't even temporarily mar the complexion, and one soon acquires a brand new, spotless, girlishly beautiful face. Wrinkles caused by weather, worry or illness, are best treated by a simple solution of powdered saxolite, on ounce, dissolved in one-half pint witch hazel. Bathing the face in this produces a truly marvelous transformation. Adv.
