Most creams r.ro injurious when used habitually. They clog the pores and wtifl!tUi fii f?rm a permanent, soggy, stifling film which interferes wltli el i mi native action and makes the skin sickly and pasty. There Is an applica tion?mercolized wax?which acts unon an entirely different principle \v/,Tie perfectly harmless, it has the peculiar property of removing by absorption tho dead and half-dead particles of scarf skin, as well as unhealthy mat ter in the pores. Thus it takes awav from, Instoad of adding to, the com plexion, differing in this respect from cosmetics. The result is a perfectly natural and healthy young complexion Mercolized wax, procurable at. nnvdrug store (one ounce is sufficient), is ap plied at night like cold cream and washed off In the morning. The correct principle In the treat ment of wrinkles Is to tighten the skin, which naturally irons out the lines.

SIR JASIKS PAUL'S recent action in imposing by virtue of his otlico as Lyon King of Arms a lino upon an individual at Ldlnburgh for usinp armorial bearings?, assumed with out due warrant, serves to call atten tion to the fact that Scotland, like Germany, Austria and Russia, deal* very severely with usurpations of this nature. In Scotland, the Lyon King, a? prin cipal heraldic officer of the kingdom or .Scotland, and as executive oillcer "f its court of chivalry, has the right to impose lines, amounting uj? to $5U0, in such instances, as well as to con fiscate all gold and silver plate, por 5 celain. carriages, automobiles, harness, liveries?nay, even stained glass win I flows and ornamental iron gates, on which armorial healings are displayed | for the uue of which no ollicial war j rant can be produced. Here on this side of the Atlantic, where the new-rich are so apt to as sume as their own any armorial de vices that may strike their fancy when offered for their inspection by their I stationer, their silversmith, or by the I vendors of their automobiles, their Carriages and harness, it is well that this tirovislcu o Scott ih law should be widely known, in view of the num ! hers who cross the ocean each sum mer to spend the fall in the Land of Cakes, many of them leasing shooting lodges and cartles In the Highlands | for th 2 season. * Of course, Lyon King of Arms does 1 not maintain, as in t.lden times, a very j large staff of pursuivants for the pur J pose of running to earth offenders against the heraldic laws of Scotland. I Rut it only needs the. spite work ot I some envious neighbor, discontented ? employe, or discharged servant, to , make trouble, i'or if he or she choose j to lodge information with Lyon King ! of Arms, at Edinburgh, that.dignitary \ has no alternative but to investigate I the case, and if the charge proves to I be well founded, to proceed against the > offender. It must be thoroughly understood i that these laws apply also to for eigners in Scotland, as well as to na ! tlves, especially if the arms usurped without warrant are those of Scotch, ; English or Irish families. South of the Tweed the laws against i the assumption of arms without the i warrant of the Royal College of Her alds in London are very severe. Rut there are no longer the former penal ties. They have become obsolete; and the result Is- that there is a good deal of dishonesty in this respect. The only check which the government is j able to maintain is by the enforcement ! of the statute providing for the taxa ! ticn of all armorial bearings, and per J sons are constantly being heavily lined j for neglecting to pay this impost. In (iermany and Austria the illegal | assumption of armorial bearings is I punishable not only by heaVy fines, : but even by imprisonment, in France i there are no longer any laws dealing 1 with this matter, and the consequence is that some of the great nobles, io prevent the theft of their heraldic de vices by strangers of wealth, but of more or less doubtful antecedents, have ! been ta*king the precaution of reglster I ing their family escutcheons as trade j marks. This is the only protection ' which the members of the old aristoe | racy can invoke against the piracy of 1 the historic quarteringa of their house 1 by parvenus, and even by queens of ! the demi-monde. The office of Lyon King of Arms is ' one of the oldest of the state in Scot i land, having been in existence as far i back as in the twelfth century, in | 11SSS its holder, bearing the title of Leo Rex Ileraldoruin, that is to say, ! Lyon King of the Heralds, is recorded as having fallen at the battle of Otter burn. At a later date. Lord Drumuiond , not only forfeited, his vast estates, but 1 was likewise imprisoned for years in Ulacknc.ss Castle, in punishment for ! the outrage which lie had perpetrated ' in boxing the ears of the Lyon King j of Arms of his day. >whose person was j considered sacred. The office is to-day housed in what is known as the Old Register House, at Edinburgh, and it has a wonderful collection *of archives, extending over a period of six centuries. Sir James's heralJs bear the titles of Albany, Rothesay and Ross, respectively, while his four pursuivants are styled as I follows: Unicorn, March, Carrick and | Scot. Sir James Paul has been Lyon ' King of* Arms for the past twenty j three years, is a member of the Scot ' lisli bar. and tlie author of a series of ! remarkable contributions to the his tory of the Northern kingdom. Sir Courtenay Tlbert, who is now engaged in delivering a series of lec tures on constitutional history in Mew York, at the Columbia University, j and who will visit several other cities in the United States and Canada be fore returning home, lias been for many years chief clerk of the House of Commons at Westminster. As such, he takes a conspicuous though a silent part in the election of tho Speaker of tho House of Commons, at the com mencement of its parliamentary exis tence, after each general election. Sir Courteiiay, as chief clerk, when the TJouso has assembled, after bow ing towards the empty Speaker's chair, from his place at tho table Just below, turns towards the Premier, and with out uttering a word, impressively points three lingers at him. The Pvhno Minister, in response, rises and pro poses tho election to tho speakership of the previous incumbent of that of fice, or, if ho declines the election, then puts forward some other candidate, whose name has usually been already agreed upon v.-ith the leader of the opposition, who generally seconds the nomination. There being no objection rinsed to the candidate thus nominated and sec onded. Sir -Courtenay, after the lapse oC two minutes, as indicated by the old-fashioned sand-glass on the table before him, rises from his seat nt the table and once more silently and solemnly points with three of his lin gers at Hie successful candidate. The latter then rises fro in his seat in the body of the House, and, ad dressing1 Sir Courtenav by name, ex presses his appreciation of the honor conferred upon him, requesting that lie may have tin.* support of every member "without which the 'Speaker can d?> nothing-, but having which tiiere is little that he cannot do." As soon as the Speaker-elect hiis concluded his little speech, to which, by tiic by. Sir Courtenay is not allowed to reply, the' Prime Minister smiles across the House to th-s leader of tliie opposition, whereupon both arise from their seats and conduct the, now ; Speaker to the Speaker's chair. When the Speaker has thus readied the chair. Sir Courtenay, again without ut1 tering a word, beckons to the sergeant , at-arms to withdraw the mace of ot lice?denounced by Cromwell as "that 1 bauble"?from beneath the table, which position it has until then ignomlnious ly occupied, and causes him to place it on the table, in token that the Speaker ; is duly installed. For the mace is the j instrument of office of the Speaker, ana it is borne before him whenever he leaves or enters the House of com mons in procession. Sir Courtenay, who is a Knight j Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath, is by virtue of his office as clerk of the House of Commons, the head or the permanent staff of the lower j chamber, is the principal legal adviser of the Speaker, enjoys a salary of $!0, 000 a year, and a handsomely furnished i and very stately official resilience.

I Special Cable to The Tlmcs-Dispatch J | PaHs' u,'t,)l,cr 23.--Troops of all the warring Balkan State* committal tfross atrocities, according to the evidence gathered by the International Carnegie 1 Commission in its searching inquiry ! just ended. ' | The conclusions of the commission (*re to bo published in book form with illustrations and facsimiles of a nuin ! ber of the documents on which the ie ifpoit Is based. The text will be is used as o whole, for which the mem , hers of the commission take tcspon j siblllty. One of the noteworthy tasks was | the minute examination and veriflca jtion of the famous packet of letters ; frfi.i Greek soldiers captured by the ? uItrarlant; containing horrible descrin | lions of how Creek soldiers "avenged i themselves" on Bulgarians who fell ! mto their hands. i The commission believes that it has established the authenticity of these letters. Other documents testify that the Greeks occasionally made use of !1 torbidden dumdum bullet, and also show the misdeeds of Bulgarians and other belligerents. The inquiry did I ""l extend to the Roumanians. All Avnllnhlr Information. i I ho commission collected material J f i om every available source After having seen the ollicials. the commis sion went lo llu- scenes of alleged atrocities and interrogated at length every class of witnesses from soldiers w.io took part in the battles to women j and children, who were spectators and jvictintrt of the horrors. Homo of the I most important evidence taken by the commissioners came from children. \Vhil<j it was found that the Bul garians had committed the greatest faults, the soldiery of other nations also were guilty of many hideous acts! I ho commissioners appear to be of the opinion tin* had other billigercnts been aroused to such a pitch of fury as were the Bulgarians, they would I not have acted much bettor. ; lu Bulgaria, the fullest inquiry was I Invited and every possible facility for j Investigation was Riven to the cotn j mission. The Bulgarians In their cam paign against the Turks behaved In an exemplary manner. rt would ap peifr that the Bulgarians who had borne the brunt of the war against the , Turks were exhausted at its end and j thought only of immediately going to their homes. They had been promised ! this. When they were told that their j allies had acted in bad faith and had betrayed them, the Bulgarian fury burst forth uncontrollably. Turkey also gave the" commission every facility for inquiry. The Greeks did likewise, though a certain amount of opposition was necountered in that country. -Vo Inquiries Permitted. Servia did its utmost to prevent an I unhampered investigation, and no ln jquirles were permitted except in the presence of a Servian military attache, j T his attitude reduced the commission's | work in Servia practically to nothing and produces a bad impression on the commission i i'.aron D'Kslournelles de Constant, of the commission, says that "the re port will no', dwell at great length on the distressing story of misdeeds in the Balkans which after'all do not prove so much against the belllgerants as against war itself." The report will fully develop the economic aspects of the war and also have a good deal to say about the wondort ul possibilities of development which lie before the Balkan people. The members of the commission were Baron D'Ustournelles de Constant and Justin Godard, a member of the Cham ber of Deputies for Franco; Professor Wilhelm Paszkowski, of the Univer sity of Berlin, for Germany; Profes sor Samuel Train Dutton, of Colum bia University, for America; H. X. Brailsford, for Great Britain; Her Ued llch. Imperial counsellor, for Austria, and M. Miloukoff, the Liberal leader of the Duma, for Russia.
