Here's Sweeney Himself In France they say "Tell It to Sweeney," just as they do in every city of the United States which sports a ralto. Captain Charles Sweeney, soldier of fortune, and captain in the Foreign Legion,. is responsible for that. Captain Sweeney is a West Point man. But things got too dull for him in the United States, and he joined the Foreign Legion, which for many years has been the home of foreigners who wished to serve France. They made him a captain; they had to because he did so many daring things he was needed. He ar rived in the United States on the Adriatic the other day and he is go ing to do what he can to arouse the American people to the importance of the war.

It's Easy to Peel OA All Yoar Freckles The contrast between the freckles | and the clear slcln usually is so great I that no bleach can be more than par- | tially successful In obliterating the ' disfigurements. Ordinary mercollzed 1 wax is far better; it literally peels off the freckles. Get an ounce of it at the nearest drug store and to-night spread on enough to completely ccver your face; remove in the morning ; with warm water. Repeat daily un til e ary freckle has disappeared. Kough, blotchy, pimpled skin, also common at this season, may be en- j tirely gotten rid of by this same ! method, without discomfort or incon- j venlence. The effort is decidedly ] worth while, the new complexion ob tained being so clear, smooth and ] youthful. If bothered with wrinkles or crows- | feet, bathe the face in a lotion made i by dissolving an ounce of powdered j axolite In a half pint of witch hazel. This is the most effective and quick est-acting wrinkle treatment known. It is perfectly harmless.—Advertise ment.
