A HOLIDAY OF JOY

have never cared for the muchcoveted Easter
bonnet, and have never made sacrifices to that
end; but do associate Eastertide with day by
the sea. To me the festival of Easter has always
been the holiday of Joy of all others In the year
1t does not work nor religious service; but
it does mean unadulterated joy, and is always
spent at Dieppe, France, because know that at
this season of the year Dieppe is deserted, and
that shall be alone for the holiday of my aban
don the sands.
| have religious feeling, it is true; but | never
discuss religion with anyone / have always felt
that religion is an individual affair and that ones
views should never be forced upon another. Mine
is simple and satisfies fully; but it might not
satisfy others fit the conditions that surround
other lives Therefore from a religious viewpoint
I never try to interfere with the standards of
of others, which God given and as much of a
right or as near right my own.
But the season of Easter above all others ap-
peals to me for very Joy of living. l spend the
day on the sands eating shrimps and walking and
on no other day of the year am l so free-Mary

ITCHED so COULD NOT SLEEP

Il suffered from the early part Of
December until nearly the beginning
of March with severe skin eruptions
on my face and scalp. At first l
treated 1t as trivial matter. But
after having used CASTLE soap, medi-
Gated washrags, cold cream, vanish
ing cream, ETC., found no relief what
ever. After that l diagnosed my case
as eczema, because of its dry. scaly
appearance. The itching and burning
of my scalp became so intense that l
thought l should go mad, having not
slept regularly for months past, only
at intervals, waking up now and then
because of the burning and itching of
my skin. Having read different tes-
timonials of cures by the Cuticura
Remedies, decided to purchase a box
of Cuticura Ointment and cake of
Cuticura Soap. After using them for
a few days | recognized marked
change in my condition. | bought
about two boxes of Cuticura Ointment
and Ave cakes of Cuticura Soap in all.
and after a few days l was entirely
free from the itching and burning
My eczema was entirely cured, all
due to using Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment daily. Hereafter / will never
be without cake of Cuticura Soap on
my washstand. I highly recommend
the Cuticura Remedies to anyone suf-
fering from similar skin eruptions and
hope you will publish my letter so
that others may learn of Cuticura
Remedies and be cured" (Signed)

The White House Office building is not par

The state of Matrimony is one of

government by the. thousands each Easter 1t
started with the teachers who began coming as
individuals at this time of year because the
spring vacation gave them few days leisure
at an opportune time for seeing the capital un-
der the most advantageous conditions and the
idea spread until we find whole delegations
of school coming by special train each
Easter. and, oddly enough many Of the teachers
come back year after year at this time-perhaps
to study political economy history in the
making.
Latterly the pupils of public grammar schools
and high schools and of private schools for both
girls and boys have been following the example
of the teachers and have been recruiting Easter
excursion parties to Washington personally con-
Quoted by teachers and chaperones. In num-
ber of states this tendency has been encouraged
by the educational authorities, who believe that
object lessons at government making in Washing
ton can proftably go hand in hand with bool
learning The result has been that number OF
the invading parties that have descended upon
the City of Magnificent Distances these past few
years have embraced practically the entire mem
bership of their respective schools
But how perhaps you asking, does this
make work for the president? Very smple-each
and every one of these Easter visitors wants to
not only see the president, but actually shake
hands with him and say 'Howdy.' OF the thou
sands upon thousands of sightseers that make
year the great majority entirely satisfied If
they catch a glimpse of the president at the
theater at church. walking on the street.
Not so, the Easter pilgrims. They want an au-
dence at court and what is more to the point,
they usually so agtate the matter with their re-
spective congressman and senators-laying stress
upon the educational status of the vsit--that the
lawmakers bestir themselves TO secure dates at
the White House.
If congress is in session at Easter tide there
is sure to be an especially heavy influx from the
school rooms all over the land, and if the presi-
dent has a reputation for good nature as has the
nresent occupant of the White House. 1t seems
as though the fact spurs the pedagogues to fresh
endeayors to secure the boon of a reception al
the White House for themselves and their
charges And as for the private schools-par-
ticularly the finishing schools" for young ladies'
that send their pupils to Washington at the end
Of Lent why any faculty might almost well
resign as arrange a trip to Washington without
a side trip to the White House, the equal IN
privileges and prestige of that vouchsafed TO
the visitors from any rival institution
But as has been said this influx of admirtng
hosts makes a very busy week for the president.
And It brings burrows to the foreheads of the
secretaries who make out the schedule of en-
gagements for the president. The Easter visitors
are not received by the president in the White
House proper as are the callers on New Years day
or at the big card receptions during the winter sea

A trial package of Munyon's Paw Paw
Pills will be sent free to anyone on re-
quest. Address Professor Munyon, 53d &
Jefferson Sts., Philadelphia, Pa. If you are
In need OF medical advice, do not fail to
write Professor Munyon. Your communi-
cation will be treated in strict confidence,
and your case will be diagnosed as care
fully as though you had personal inter
view.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are unlike
all other laxatives or cathartics They
coax the liver into activity by gentle
methods. They do not scour, they do
not grippe, they do not weaken, but they
do start all the secretions of the liver
and stomach in way that soon puts
these organs in a healthy condition and
corrects constipation. In my opinion
constipation is responsible for most all
ments. There are 26 feet of human
bowels, which is really a sewer pipe.
When this pipe becomes clogged the
whole system becomes poisoned, caus-
ing biiousness, indigestion and impure
blood, which often produce rheumatism
and kidney ailments. No woman who
suffers with constipation or any liver
ailment can expect to have a clear
complexion or enjoy good health If
had my way would prohibit the sale
of nine tenths of the cathartics that are
now being sold for the reason that they
soon destroy the lining of the stomach,
setting up serious forms of indigestion,
and paralyze the bowels that they re-
fuse TO act unless forced by strong
purgatives.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are a tonic
to the stomach, liver and nerves. They
invigorate instead of weaken; they en-
Sich the blood instead of impoverish
1t; they enable the stomach to get all
the nourishment from food that is put
Into it.
These pills contain no calomel, no
dope; they are soothing, healing and
stimulating. They school the bowels

Relative Heating Powers

coal has just twice as much heating
power as dry wood has and a little
less than charcoal has. OF course,
wood that is not dry loses a proper
tionate heating value corresponding to
the quantity of water retained In 1t.
and air-dry wood has on an average
IL per cent Of water in It. So that
we may easily estimate the value of
one ton of anthracite coal to be equal
