HEALTH AND BEAUTY.

If the hands are not good and the
nails badly shaped, try to improve the
latter by training the cuticle. Every
night soak the fingers in hot water for
FIVE minutes. Then with an orange
wood stick press back the cuticle to
lengthen the nails. Afterward rub in
cold cream. Do not omit this or the
soaking will make the cuticle very dry.
Sage tea as hair tonic may be made
by mixing two ounces of dried sage
and two ounces of green tea. then put
ting them into three quarts of water,
boiling in an iron kettle. This should
simmer until reduced to two quarts,
then stand for twenty-four hours in
the same kettle. Afterward strain and
apply evenly to the hair at night. 1t

Club ignorant of American History.
On hearing much praise of culture
classes from Fifth avenue (New York;
woman at luncheon, sarcastic sister
asked if it would not be proper to in
clude American history in the list Of
subjects. Recently l attended a his
tory class in woman'S club" said she.
Twenty members were there. The
lecturer asked a few questions in
stance: Who was the first president of
the United States, who the first vice
president, who the first speaker Of the
house, who the first justice of the SUI
preme court, and so on? Not one of the
twenty women could answer all the
questions correctly, though they were
pretty sure George Washington was
the first president. Now, ladies, I'll
put the same questions to you" She
did. Answers often were so wide of
the mark that they were funny "To
think" cried the patriot. ''that we go
to Europe and talk glibly about the
heroes of those countries when we do
not know the first thing about our own
glorious history! The Daughters of
the American Revolution are offering
prizes for the best students Of history
among the high school children Of the
United States. think it would be an
excellent idea for somebody to offer
prizes to induce society folk Of our big
cities to acquire knowledge"

Popular Suggestion.

1t was Colonel George Harvey, the
irrepressible editor of Harper's Week
ly, that suggested DR.. Wilson's candi-
dacy, expecting it to pass off in the
manner of the usual Harvey pleasan-
tries. To his surprise it took" The
newspapers indorsed. the proposition
far and wide, and people wrote in Its
favor from all over the land. That
was two years ago, and the boom is
still alive. Nothing may come of it, but
in that regard it does not differ from
a large number of other booms. A
suggestion that Immediately strikes a
popular chord and keeps it vibrating
two whole years is worth discussing.
That DR.. Wilson has views, and Wig
orous ones, is shown in his advocacy
of publicity for the trusts.

he says. they must at least let US
trouble them to see their consciences.
If we could only see the souls of the
board of directors and know how much
they weighed. then we would know
whether it would be safe to invest our
money in them or not. We can't
abolish the trusts. We must moralize
them.
"The thing that keeps water in stocks
is secrecy. If this board were taken out
of the sluiceway, the water would all
run out, and then the people would
know what they had left"
President Wilson believes our meth

1t might be said that if the nation

~ ESPITE the prevalence Of higher
education in America. college
presidents are seldom consider
ed for political positions. Men
like Andrew D. White and James b
Angel are conspicuous exceptions. but
their work has been confined for the
most part to the diplomatic service
There is scarcely a college head in
either branch of congress or in high
executive station. As for the presi'

cept James A. Garfield, who was q
college president for short time in his
early manhood. no educator has ever
been seriously considered for the office.
Why should we not draft the knowl-
edge. training and high ideals of the
teachers in our government service
For example. why should not the
trained political economists have some
part in the actual working out of the
political economy of the nation? If it
be objected that they are only theorists,
then give them a chance to correct the
defect by practical experience. Both
the college and the government would
be the gamers. the government in ex-
pert knowledge and the college in &C.
tual contact with affairs.
1t is in this spirit that President
Woodrow Wilson of Princeton univer-
sity has been suggested as suitable
candidate for the presidency of the
United States. Wilson is not only an
educator. but historian. an orator and
a political economist of recognized
standing. He once practiced law and
has kept in touch with the world Of

tack the vital organs, causing catarrh of
the bladder, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from arrangement of TIE kidneys and
a cure is obtained quickest by a proper
treatment of the kidneys. If You are feel
ing badly You can make no mistake by
taking DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-ROOt, the
great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
1t corrects inability to hold urine and
sca1ding pain in passing it, and over
comes that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to go often through the day,
and to get up many times during the
night. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
1t stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.
Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is
sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and

RECA|NS HIS TITLE
Peter Schmitt Gets Title as State
Pool Champion at End Of
Two Days Match
HASCALL A WEAK CONTENDER

Peter R. Schmitt Of Kenosha, who
: held the state pool championship for
many years and lost the title year
ago, regained it last night at the Cole
man and Perrigo pool parlors in Mil
waukee when playing in wonderful
form he defeated R. B. Hascall Of Be
lott in the concluding match Of a two
days session Hascall proved weak
contender for the state honors and he
was at Schmitt S mercy from the very
opening Of the game. On the previous
day Schmitt had won an easy victory
over John Miller, the Milwaukee
crack, who had been one of the con-
testants for the state championship.
Miller defeated Hascall Wednesday
night by score of $50 to 113.
Schmitt defeated Miller in the first
match of the series by score Of $50
to IS so that his victory is so complete
that there will be no question as to
his superiority among the pool players
of the state.
Schmitt was in great form Thursday
evening and three times in succession
he pocketed the fifteen balls, his run
Of forty-fve without an error being
the longest run ever recorded in a
state pool championship contest. In
comparison with the brilliant play Of
Schmitt the work Of Hascall was de-
cidedly crude and there was not time
when he came near showing champion
ship form Twelve was his highest
run during the short session of play
and it took Schmitt just 7 frames to
get the number required to win the
match and the championship At that
Schmitt drove the fifteen balls to the
pockets six times during his match
with Hascall. The following is the
score Of the final match:

ton Of q Large Class Early
in December
NATIONAL OFFICIALS COMING

The officers Of Pike Woods Camp,
No. 391, M, W. A, are arranging for
the largest meeting Of the Woodmen

Hall on Park street and march through
the downtown streets. 1t is expected
that one thousand Woodmen will be
in line. twenty-five Forester teams
have signifed their intention of being
present in full uniform. The parade
will be so marshaled as to allow these
teams to exercise their various evolu-
tions in order that all those who are
not members of the Woodmen, but
who are interested in the drill teams,
may see their skill.
All the camps along the lake shore
from Chicago to Milwaukee will send
large delegations, and special train ser
vice from these cities is being arranged
for Ali of the camps in Kenosha
county are coming with a large num-
Der Of members, and already a special
train from Genoa Junction OH the
Northwestern has been chartered to
accommodate these members.
The head officers of the organization
have recognized the Importance of this
meeting and have paid the Kenosl"
camp pretty compliment by accept
ing the camps invitation to be present
and participate in the evenings init
alton.
Following the initiation the head
officers of the organization will address
the assembled Woodmen> on the craft
and after this program the members
will be entertained at the Woodmen
Hall at smoker and lunch. That this
meeting may be a success and that the
largest class of candidates ever adopt
ed at one time by Kenosha Camp may
be initiated, every officer and every
member of Kenosha Camp, assisted by
the district deputy who has been in
charge of this class, is using every eff
fort and it is safe to say that success
will crown their efforts.
