NO MORE BIRTHMARKS?

Should the cure Just discovered
prove to be successful-and Lon
don physicians have faith in it
repulsive birthwarks so often seen
on otherwise handsome faces will
be things of the past. 1t is being
used In a London hospital and the
experiments thus far made lead
the physicians to hope for the
best.
The cure is carbonic acid gas in
the form of snow 100 degrees be-
low zero. The snow Is gathered
on green baize from a cylinder of
gas, liquified under pressure.
iScraped off it is deposited IN a
small hard rubber cylinder, where
it is pressed down until it forms
hard button of ice.
Application of this button to the
disfgured part for half a minute
a day leaves a white patch of
frozen tissue. The intense cold
leads to local Inflammation, caus-
ing finally the breaking down of
the abnormal tissues. When this
heals. the physicians say, 1t leaves
the skin normal.

Oh, it was fierce? The inhabi-

1t is very difficult to make your

THREE CHICKS

Mother Hen stood in the door,

her three chicks who were on their
way to school.
Each chick carried, beside his
books, a little tin pail in which
Mother Hen had put nice lunch.
You see, the school was a long
way from their house, SO they
didn't come home at noon.
Often on the way the brothers,
Speckles and Dandy, would have
to make chair with their wings
and carry their little sister Fluffy
who sometimes became tired.
Today while they were carrying
her, they met a fox. He begged
to carry Fluffy himself, saying
they were such sweet chicks he
would gladly help them.
The chicks were bit doubtful
of his good intentions. Seeing
them hesitate, Mr.. Fox offered to
go get two of his friends to carry
Dandy and Speckles too, If they
would wait.
Speckles said: That's a good
idea"

peared into the woods to look for

Bread for sandwiches should be
q day old, for to be dainty 1t must
be cut to- water-like thinness. But
ter should be soft and the slices
spread carefully so that the bread
will not tear. Filings may be
simple or composite as the occa-
sion requires. When the sand
witches are completed they should
be wrapped in a napkin wrung az
dry as possible out of hot water
and kept in q cool place until
ready for use.

which are wide across the toes.

SENATORIAL "TERNlS"

While the Bismarck Tribune does
mot wish to anticipate or speculate
on the division of the courts in re-
lation to the question of designating
the terms-or making no designation
whatever-on the part Of candidates
for the United States senate, we do
wish at this time to affirm our ad-
herance to the editorial expression
made by the Tribune many months
ago, before the question reached the
degree of serious consideration as
to how the official ballots should be
printed.
While the Tribune is willing to ad-
nit that there is some force in the
contention of those who believe that
it is the OFFICE of United States
senator simply that candidates are

to be determined by the legislative
body, which, of course, is under
the constitution the electing body

meory that the TERM is correlative
with the OFFICE. In other words.

terms were decided BY lot-the Unit

Iquaintances by appearing before a
brilliant and enthusiastic throng at
the opening Of Cincinnatis annual
May music festival tonight, as the
deiicatory of an heroic statue of

Having respected the presidents

took full advantage Of his appear
ance tonight to- 4cclaim him as the
chief executive:of the nation. A
fanfare of trumpets ushered the
president upon the stage, but the
notes of the Instruments were drown
ed by the shouts of the thousands
who had listened to the inspiringly
patriotic strains of Handel's Judas
Maccabus. After the concert, the
president was whirled to the Queen
City club, where Lawrence Maxwell,
former solicitor general of the Unit
ed States and president of the May
Festival association, was his host
until the presidential party left for

"class" on the admissiont of a new
state, succeeding senators elected
thereafter must, or should be for a
specific term. Thus Senator McCum-
Der, having served his full term, and
being a candidate for another term,
very naturally and properly should
expect, if elected, to have another
full term. Unexpectedly, Senator
Johnson died before the expiration
of his term, and his successor should
be elected to fill the unexpired term.
Thus the Offices of "long" and
"short" term-two ofices-instead OF
one Office, as the position of United
States senator might be construed
were there but one senator to be
elected by the legislature.
If there was only one senator to
be CHOSEN, there would be no ques.
ton as to the term, and it seems
entirely proper, and we believe obl1-
gatory, that aspirants for the United
States senate declare the term" as
we'll as the "office" for which they
are candidates.
