A Harmless Treatment.

A young woman who has a beautifully
rounded throat, with lovely neck and
arms to match, attributes her beauty in
that direction entirely to a simple course
of treatment.
She says; ITO begin with, you must be
prepared for somewhat disagreeable
odor and the ruination of your night
robe; therefore put aside the oldest
gowns and go to work by yourself and
you will work wonders in three weeks.
"The process is merely amounting with
cod liver oil every night, 1t will take
you good half hour, but you will be
repaid by the beautifying effect it viii
have in remarkably short time. Per-
severance must be your watchword,
however, until the form commences to
round out; then the treatment need not
be so frequent in warm weather, and
not more than three times week in
cold. 1t is simple and harmless, and no
physician will discourage what he knows
to be so genuinely beneficial. al."-Detrcit

The first cultivated rose is said to
have been planted in Britain A. d.
1922. The damask rose was brought
from France in 1873, the moss rose
about 1924, and the China rose soma
fifty years after. Wild roses are,
however, natives of all parts of Brit
ain. In Withering's British Botany"
only five distinct species are said to
be indigenous, but in Hooker's and
Arnott's British Flora" nineteen
species are mentioned, and some
writers on botany raise the number
as high as twenty-four. Detroit Free

It Has Now Been In Use Century In In

A very interesting centenary fell on
April 25 last Little was said about 1t
and there was no public rejoicing. Yet
the thing that might have been hon.
ored in some way was a creditable in
vention. although it has discreditable
history. 1t is the g,lillotino. On April
25, 1909, the highwaymnn Pelletier was
executed on the Plaoe dc Greve, in
Paris, and the humanitarian invention
of DR.. Louis was put In use for the first
time.
1t Is o common and natural impress
sion that this instrument was designed
by Dr. Guillotin, whose name it bears.
But it is now pretty we'll established
that this is not so. DR.. Louis, the per-
manent secretary of the academy of
medicine, was the inventor of it. There
was n general desire for u moro mcrci-
full way of inflicting the death penalty.
DR.. Louis was filled with this desire rs
much US anyone, and designed the first
model of the guillotine after rougher
Italian continuance. 1t was made by
one Schmidt, manufacturer of musical
AAiS1i uiiclilS W NSuccIl Murlo AnCOlncCtc.
Two years aftcrward the guillotine
made from his model was used to cut
off the heads of his royal patroness and
her husband. Marie Antoinette was
interested in the condition of prisoners
and was also in favor of reforming the
methods of capital punishment Mobiles
were usually >decapitated with the ak
and common persons in various other
ways

AUGUSTA, June S.-The second day of
the Universalist convention was largely
attended. Over 100 attended the a. m.
conference meeting. The report of the
committee fayoring the Union Efforts
Convention, SuYday School Association,
and Y Young People Union in contributing
to the support Of the state missionary,
was discussed at length and finally with
drawn.
The Ocean street UniversaIist parish
of Deering was granted the fellowship
OF the convention. The treasurer re-
ported that the expenditures had ex-
ceeded the receipts by $414.42. There
was paid in aid of parishes 1925; salary

Westbrook Seminary was the subject
of discussion by various speakers, in
Guiding Ara Cushman of Auburn. Ex-
Governor Perham addressed the conven-
ton. A burst of enthusiasm was Gre
ated when Mr.. Young of Calais arose
and said he would give $1,000 towards
the $4,000 fund for the school. It was
voted to put state missionary into the
field. A warm discussion arose over the
proposition to unite the state work of
the Sunday school unions and the Sun
day school convention with that of the
state missionary, the Sunday schools con-
ttribuuting their proportional portion of
funds. The proposition was finally
withdrawn by the committee.
Wednesday afternoon, Rev. William
M. Kimmell of Rockland delivered an
able address on ''The Religious Outlook,
He spoke of the vitality of religion.

ton, ''How can the church aid in the So

MINNEAPOLIS, June S.-The session of
the National Republican Convention to-
day from the moment that Chairman
Fassett pounded three sharp raps on the
walnut table in front of him, until
Chairman Mckinley declared the con-
vention adjourned, without asking for a
negative vote occupied exactly 90 min
utes. In this brief space of time, several
straws foated through the atmosphere
and showed with unfailing distinctness
the direction of the wind With the ex-
ception of these incidents, the signif-
canoe of which were all underneath the
surface, the convention was quiet
gathering There was no strillingly
unexpect ed occurrence like the ovation to
Mr.. Reed yesterday and the delegates
seemed to realize that, for the time being
at least, they were nonentities while
