CIVILIAN CLOTHES BARRED
By Associated Press
London, May 11.—Canadian and
other overseas staff officers who
have not the facilities of a home
and friends such as the British offi
cers possess are irritated over a new
order forbidding them to wear civi
lian clothes, except for golf or other
sports, for which they have no time.
The order says "no mufti except in
private houses," whih means, as a
rule for dominions officers, no mufti
at ail. The officers feel that, after
two years In uniform, they ought
to be allowed to wear civilian dress
when dining in a public place or go
ing to a theater.

Wonderful Skin and
Wrinkle Removers
The method of removing bad com
plexions by absorption seems to have
come into general use in this coun
trv. Ordinary wercolized wax, ap
plied nightly like cold cream and
erased mornings with warm water,
gradually absorbs the coarse, faded
or discolored outer film skin in al
most invisible particles. Soon there's
a brand new complexion, formed by
the vounger. healthier under-skin. No
cosmetic or artificial treatment can
possibly produce a complexion of such
radiant, youthful loveliness. Drug
gists all have mereolized wax; it is
seldom that more than one ounce Is
necessary.
Thousands have also reported great
success with the famous saxolite
wrinkle-removing formula. One
ounce of pure powdered saxolite Is
dissolved in a half pint witch hazel
and the solution used as a face wash.
The effect is almost magical. The
deepest wrinkles and crow's feet, as
well as the finest lines whether
due to age, illness, weather or worry
—are immediately affected. No one
need hesitate to try this simple lotion,
as it won't harm any skin.
