Despite Heat Waves

Bee Bureau.
Washington, Aug. 16.
MID-SUMMER lethargy i un
known in Washington this
year. Although the gayeties
at the White Sulphur, Newport,
Southhampton, York Harbor ana
Lenox, which are almost unpre
cedented, are enticing to a degree,
after the several years of dullness,
the immediate interest in Washing
ton is even greater. What with the
president's trips to the capitol to
speak in person to the congress, his
week-end sails on the Mayflower, his
golf games and theater parties with
his charming and vivacious wife in
variably by his side, the atmosphere
is always charged with expectancy.
While the close of last week wan
marked with much brilliancy in the
house of representatives when the
president addressed the two houses
of congress on the subject now pes
tering the world the high cost of
living, the opening of this week was
made memorable by the splendid
parade of 8,000 sturdy 'marines,
known to the Germans in the
Chateau-Thierry and Balleau Wood
districts as "devil dogs." They were
reviewed by the president nad Mrs.
Wilson and the heads of the war,
navy and marine, with their wives
and guests.
A touch of the tragic end of the
home-coming was given by the large
party of injured and convalescent
soldiers from the Walter Reed hos
pital, who were brought in motor
cars and seated on the sidewalk and
in the edge of Lafayette park, im
mediately opposite the presidential
stand in front of the White House.
There) were men on crutches, men
with one arm, one or two without
arms and several with one arm and
one leg gone. They somehow stop
ped the cheer in the throat, if in the
line of vision when the cheer start
ed. And yet they are among the
cheeriest and apparently the hap
piest of the lot. They carry a won
derful lesson around with them, for
they are the last to show a frown, or
a sigh, or a grouch.
Mrs. Wilson's Clothes.
Mrs. Wilson as never more in
teresting to the general public. She
has lost much of her flesh acquired
since 'she took up her residence in
the White House. Those days in
Paris took off the avoirdupois oi
both men and women. And she
looks prettier and brighter, even,
than ever before. But even though
she did not, her clothes would be
sufficient to make the women sit up
straight to look after her, and, truly,
she is good to see.
Her clothes are stamped "Paris,"
all of them. And she has a new
French maid who knows how to put
Jthejn . pjit her. Susie, who is known
, un iwo LUHUI1CIU5 10 mc reading
public, has been transferred to other
duties, and the French maid who
came over with r Irs. Wilson on the
George Washington when the party
returned the last time has direct
charge of the first lady of the land
and her personal appearance.
Clothes are interesting the women
of all countries now, after from two
to five years of absolutely no
thought for them. When Mrs. Wil
son stood beside the president on the
reviewing stand to greet the marines
' as they passed by she was really
oeautuul m a wliitje georgette frock,
with touches of American Beauty
satin, a broad girdle and sash' ends
at the side, made of the bright-col-
ored satin, and graceful, very large
Gainsborough hat of black velvet,
the undulating brim framing her
face and showing a single American
Beauty rose at the right side. She
' wore with this a veil of white tulle,
which formed itself into a scarf and
wound about her neck, a touch to
her costume which she has affected
since her return here. The neck of
her gown was made in the square ef
fect of the summer fashion and was
finished with a tiny ruffle and two
bands of narrow satin of the bril
liant red.
The presidential party on the
stand, included the secretary of state
and Mrs. Lansing, Secretary Baker,
Secretary and Mrs. Houston, Attor
ney General and Mrs. Palmer, Sec
. retary and Mrs. Lane, the French
, ambassador and Mme Jusserand, the
Italian ambassador, Count di Cel
lere, Admiral Benson,' the major
general commandant of the marine
: corps and Mrs. George Barnett, Gen.
Peyton "C. March, surgeon general
United States navy and Mrs. Brai
sted, and innumerable military and
naval attaches of embassies and le
gations, and the heads of the com
panies of marines, who were unable
to march.
, Mme. Jusserand, who is a close
friend of Mrs. Wilson, is a charming
, Boston woman, who married the
ambassader in Paris, just after she
graduated and when he was quite
i young in the diplomatic service of
. ' his country. She wore a chic cos
;. tume of tan or sand color and navy
s blue, with her invariable moderate
sired hat of dark blue with tan col
ored feathers.
Entertained by Roosevelt
After the long procession had
passed by, the company on the
stand, with the exception of the
president and Mrs. Wilson, were en
tertained at luncheon by Mr. Roose
velt, the acting secretary of the
navy. The president teaches a good
lesson at alt of his public appear
ances, at the playing of the national
anthem and the passing of the flag.
At the first strains of the Star Span
gled Banner and at the first glimpse
what he is doing or with whom he is
, talking and stands rigid''- at atten
tion, with hat in his hand until the
strain is finished' and until the flag
has passed out of sight.
It was noticeable on the stand at
y the review, that many of the men,
including the secretary of war, Mr.
. Baker, himself, failed to remove his
- hat when the flag was carried past
Unlike Mr. Wilson whose hat came
off quickly. Mr. Baker saluted the
flag with his hand St his hat, like the
military men, who do not remove
their military hats for salute.
Mr. Baker returned here on Tues
day morning from Bemus Point,
Chautauqua, where he spent the
week-end with Mrs. Baker and their
family, who are with Miss Hannah
Patterson this month. He went
there from Buffalo, where he and
the acting secretary of the navy
spoke before the Knights of Colum
bus peace conference.
The clothes of Mrs. Wilson, Miss
Margaret Wilson, Mrs. Marshall,
wife of the vice president; Mrs. Gil
lett, wife of the speaker of the house
of representatives, were all of much
interest when they appeared in the
galleries at the capitol last week to
hear the president speak on the high
cost of living. Mrs. Wilson and
Miss Wilson, with a party of rela
tives, were in the executive gallery,
set aside for the presidential family.
Mrs. Marshall was Mrs. Gillett's
guest in the speaker's gallery, and
Mme. Jusserand was the only wom
an in the 'diplomatic gallery. She
sat close to the dividing rail between
the diplomatic and the executive
seats, and Mrs. Wilson moved her
seat in the middle to next to; the
railing, so as to hold a steady con
versation with Mme. Jusserand un
til the president entered. Mrs. Wil
son was dressed in a pale tint of
Alice blue georgette on this occa
sion, the gown embroidered with
white beads in a conventional pat
tern.. The skirt was short and had
several rather broad tucks in it. It
was not narrow, either, but amply
full to walk up stairs in. Her hat
was the same she wore in the re
viewing stand, but it was veiled with
tulle of Alice blue, which wound
about her neck and floated away
over her left shoulder. She carried
a round tan or nai wnice icamcis,
for it was something like 100 in the
shade on that afternoon. Miss Wil
son was in white serge, with a band
of dark fur about the square-cut
neck, and a hat of tan-colored
eeortrette with a softly rolling brim
and pink roses, the whole veiled in
tan-colored tulle. She wore high
white shoes.
Mrs. Marshall wore yellow voile,
embroidered in yellow crewel, with
a large black hat with touches of
French blue. Mrs. Gillett, who is
a very handsome woman, very
"smart" in her appearance, with iron
gray hair, was in white with a large
white hat, and Mme. Jusserand wore
black and white foulard with a small
black chip hat with large white vel
vet roses flat about the crown.
The presidential party had tea on
the south portico of the White
Houso afterward, and then the pres
ident and Mrs. Wilson went out to
play golf, returning in time for a
7:30 dinner. .
F. C. Crocker, president ot tne
Nebraska Live Stock association,
spent the week here at the Harring
ton hotel. Representative and Mrs,
M O. McLauehlin of York, Neb.,
entertained at dinner on Tuesday
evening in his honor, in their pretty
home on Jackson place.
The family of Senator Norris have
settled down now for the summer,
not expecting to get away at all be
frri th schools ooen.
Representative A. W. Jefferis of
Omaha, who has an apartment witn
Judge Evans of Nebraska, and Judge
Dickinson of Iowa, in the Wyoming,
had expected to join his family be
fore this, but has made no pian now
to get away. As soon as he can
Uiir will, however, and after a
short vacation, will bring his fam
ily back with him, when they will
start a campaign of house hunting.
Burgess-Zittle.
The marriage of Ruth Zittle,
daughter of Mrs. Jessie V. Zittle to
Forest J. Burgess was solemnized
at the Grace church in Oak park,
Saturday afternoon. Rev. George
Ray read the rnarriage lines.
Miss Jeanette Sollitt was brides
maid and Mr. Warren Burgess,
brother of the bridegroom was best
man. The ceremony was followed
by a wedding supper at the home
of the bridegroom's parents.

This la what you should do to shed a
spoiled complexion: Spread evenly over
the face, covering every inch of skin, a
thin layer of ordinary mercolized wax.
Let this stay on over nifrht, wash it off
next morning. Repeat daily until your
complexion is as clear, soft and beautiful
as a young girl's. This result Is inevit
able, no matter how soiled or discolored
the complexion. Tha wax literally peels
off the filmy surface skin, exposing the
lovely skin beneath. The process is en
tirely harmless, so little of the old skin
coming off at a time.
Mercolized wax is obtainable at any
drug store; one ounce usually suffices.
It's a veritable wonder-worker for rough,
tanned, reddened, blotchy, pimpled or
freckled skin.
Double Chin
If you have a double chin and
flabbiness of the face, or if you
are overstout in other parts of the
body, get some oil of korein (in
capsules) at the druggist's; follow
directions; beautify figure, improve
health, vivacity, etc., through a
simple system for reducing weight
ten to sixty pounds. Eat all you
need; no tedious exercise or starv-
inv. Oil of korein is rerfectlv
harmless. Reduction guaranteed :
or your money back. Look and
feel younger. Cut this adv't out
so you'll remember. Adv
TODD'S MUSCLE
TRIMMED PLATE
Is guaranteed to fit perfectly be
cause it Is the exact reproduction
of the mouth for which the plate
is made.
These dentures have Very de
cided advantages over the ordi
nary rubber plate. Their ex
treme thinness as well as their
flexibility eliminates the sore
spots at the junction of the hard
and soft plate. This condition
generally arises when a patient
attempts to wear and use a thick
plate. There is greater comfort
and better speech, or enuncia
tion, to the patient from the use
of the Todd Muscle Trimmed
Thin Plate Process.
We use only the very best ma
terial that we can possibly ob
tain. We recommend these plates
and have learned by experience
that it is the only rlate that can
be guaranteed to fit perfectly
and give our patients absolute
satisfaction.
