King George in France to Visit Headquarters Special to The Telegraph London, Dec. I.—The Official Press Bureau announced that King George has gone to France to visit the gen eral headquarters of the British expe ditionary force. The King was accompanied by -his How to Shed a Rough, Ckapped or Blothcy Skin This is what you should do to shed a bad complexion: Spread evenly over the face, covering every Inch of skin, a thin layer of ordinary mercollzed wax. Let this stay on over night, washing it off next morning. Repeat daily until your complexion is as dear, soft and beauti ful as a young girl's. This result is in evitable, no matter how soiled or with ered the complexion. The wax literally absorbs the filmy surface skin, expos ing the lovely young skin beneath. The process Is entirely harmless, so little of the old skin coming ofT at a time. Mer collzed wax is obtainable at any drug store: one ounce usually suffices. It's a veritable v.-onder-worker for rough, chapped, reddened, blotchy, pimpled, freckled or sallow skin. Pure powdered saxolite is excellent for a wrinkled skin. An ounce of it dissolved in a half-pint witch hazel makt-s a refreshing wash-lotion. This renders the skin quite firm and smooth; Indeed, the very first application erases the finer lines: the deeper ones soon follow.—Advertisement. CUT THIS OUT oi.n engmsh recipe for CATARRH\I. DEAFNESS AMD HEAD NOISES If you know someone who is troubled with catarrhal deafness or head noises, cut out this formula and hand It to them and you will have been the means of saving some poor sufferer perhaps from total deafness. Experi ments conducted in England some time ago seem to prove conclusively that ca tarrhal deafness, head noises, etc., were directly caused by constitutional trouble. It was further brought out that salves, sprays, inhalers, etc., merely temporize with the complaint, and seldom, if ever, effect a permanent cure. This being so, much time and money were spent in perfecting a pure, gentle, yet effective tonic that would quickly dispel all traces of the catarrhal poison from the system. The prescrip tion which was eventually formulated and which has aroused the belief that catarrhal deafness and head noises will soon be extinct is given below in un derstandable form so that anyone can treat themselves in their own 1 ome at little expense. Secure from your druggist 1 oz. Par mint (Double Strength), about 75c worth. Take this home and add to it >i pint of hot water and -1 pz. of granu lated sugar; stir until dissolved.

Every person who has catarrh in any form should give this recipe a trial and free themselves from this destructive disease.

Petrojrrad Correspondent Tells of Mas terly Retreat in Poland By Associated Press London, Dec. 1, 3.17 A. M.—The Petrograd corersDondent of the Dally Mail in a dispatch to his paper testifies to the extreme skill and courage with which the Germans are conducting their retreat. He says: "Refusing to consider surrender aa a possibility and closing their eyes to inevitable enormous losses, the Ger man officers ordered their forces to break their way out. "The Russians were not in sufficient strength to close up immediately any breach in the surrounding forces ana at the point where the Germans con centrated their attacks in order to join up with the other forces in the neigh borhood of Strykow the Russians were unable to pile up sufficient troops to hurl back the desperate onset which the Germans made with the equally desperate knowledge that their food and ammunition could not last long." GERMANS CUT IN THREE Paris, Dec. 1, 5.2 5 A. M.—The pres ent situation in Poland, according to Ludovic Xaudeau, the special repre sentative of the Journal de Paris, who is at the Russian headquarters in the fle'.l. fs as 'ollows: "General Mackenzin's eighth Ger man army is separated into three groups. The first, between Gombin to the north and Brzeziny to the south, is being attacked on three sides. There remains an opening on the western road toward Kutno, which, however, will be threatened by Russians ad vancing from Lodz. Part of this first group at Glowno and Strykow is al most entirely surrounded. "The second group, to the south, at Rzgow and Tuszyn, is trying to force its way through to the north, but is opposed by the Russians at Lodz and Brzeziny, and the western road is closed to it by the same Russian army which recently beat two German corps at Wielun. "The third group, to the west, is in a critical but not desperate position, for, by a right flank at Zdunska Wola, on the Warta. it still holds the road to Kalisz, which would serve either for retreat or for reinforcements if Gen eral von Hindenburg thinks it still possible to try to save his eighth army." BERLIN REPORTS ALL QVIET Berlin, Dec. I.—By wireless to Lon don.—The following official announce ment was given out in Berlin to-day: "There is no news to hand from the western area of the war.
