Promises by which Germany induced Turkey and Bulgaria to come into the war, are proving a stumbling block to the phrasing of the central powers' reply to Pope Bene dict's peace pleas according to word received here today- A ioint reply by the central powers bas been contemplated, but complete agreement on all the pope's sugges tions has not vet been obtained by Teu tonic statesmen, it was asserted. Aus tria, greatest of Catholic nations, ap parently approves the pope's plans. Germany docs not want to approve them in full and Turkey and Bulgaria are frankly expansionists.

W. W. A HOME EECIPE FOB REMOVING WRINKLES Who will blame the modern woman for trying to look as young and at tractive as she reasonably can? Why should she be placed at a disadvantage in numerous ways by wearing wrinkles, if she can avoid these hateful marks of advancing age Few women, however, know what to do to effectually rid themselves of wrinkles or sagginess. Most of the advertised preparations are unsatisfactory and very expensive. But a very simple and harmless homo reme dy, which any woman can make, will work wonders where all the patent preparations fail. Buy an ounce of powdered saxolite at any drug store. Disolve the whole ounce in a half pint of witch hazel and use as a wash lotion. The results are practically instantaneous. Marked im provement is noticed immediately after the i-erv first trial.

Those Who Will Not Fight Can No Longer Vote Ottowa, Ont., Sept. 7. Conscientioui objectors and citizens of alien enemy birth are made "men without a coun try" by the new franchise bill, -which is before the house of commons today. While disfranchising these classses of men, the bill gives the vote to 400, 000 mothers, wives, widows, dauehters and sisters of Canadian goldiers in for eign service. It is estimated fifty thousand men will be deprived of their citizenship if the bill becomes a law. They include enemy aliens who have become natural ized since March 31, 1902, conscien tious objectors and members of sects who refuse war service on religious grounds.
