Washington Is Very Gay Despite Heat Waves Flirting With no Goes East to School 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.

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.

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.
