His impatience was natural. Kithor

guns of the latest model and 2,000,000
rounds of ammunition ordered in Ger

esiecial purpose of defending the Vera
Cruz Mexico City railroad.
To gain control of this railroad will
be one of the United States' forces
first tasks in Mexico. Uuless they
previously seize the German arms and
ammunition shipment it is certain that
it will bo used against themselves.
Yet tho president hesitated at order
ing the seizure without congressional
approval of his course. In fact, assum

a German ship, seizure was out of the
question under international law with
out the previous declaration of a block

Tho resolution of approval of tho

He said that the work in the respective
departments hfis been greatly reduced
in volume of late owing to street pav

imum, or words to that effect. A
resolution was passed which ordered
that Messrs. Elgin and Miss Crossan

Toe Chief Is Puzzled.
Mpro important than the cosmetic
eare of the complexion is its physical
care. To keep the faee clean, fresh,
youthful; there's nothing better than
eommon mercolizcd wax. It absorbs
the soiled or faded worn-out skin par
ticles. Cosmetics simply sdd unwholo-
someness to tne complexion, inai s
the difference. By all means, acquire
the mercolized wax habit. It's so easy
to get an ounce of tne wax at the
druggist's, apply at night like cold
cream and wash it off next morning.
There's no dotontion indoors, the old
skin coming off so gradually no one
suspects you're using anything. When
in a week or two tne alluringly youtn
ful, roselike, undonkin is fully in
view well, you won't want, or need, a
make-up complexion after that. It
must be apparent that this process
means complete riddance of all cutan
eous blemishes, like freckles, pimples,
blotches and blackheads.

the dogs in the cage.
