We have a preparation that
will do this. The first appli-
cation will stop the itching and
give prompt relief to any ir.
ritated, itching or intlame d
skin. If you are a sufferer
from skin or scalp eruption in
any form, try one bottle Of this
clean scientific preparation, we
are confident you will be pleased
with results from the use of
this standard preparation for
eczema.

Are You An American
by Herbert Kaufmap)

by Herbert Kaufmap)
Yours is the heritage Of Lex.
tngton and Bunker Hill. You
stand without q peer. You're q
sovereign maker of laws
shoulder-and-soul high to every
fellow.
The swords Of valiant forbears
wrested for you these United
States from the grasp Of Tyr
amy and willed them to your
children and to your children's
children for all time-to be for
all time q land without q hand
leap or a shackle.
The Declaration Of 1ndepend-
ence records your manumission
and the Constitution is your
title to possession.
Starred white upon q field
OF blue, so long as wind shall
stir its folds, there waves q
Flag whose stainless stripes
have never known the heel
mark Of a conqueror.
At which point suppose we
leave the Stars and Stripes
Tapping and come down to the
ground to ask what in thunder
alton you ever did to insure its
further glory and to perpetuate
Aforesaid prosperity to posterity.
In plain English, what sort of
q citizen are you anyhow?
In blunt but emphatic terms,
how often have you given a
thought to anything but your
selfish ends-how many times
have you foregone expediency
and immediate profit in the
name of the communal good?
How long have you ever paus-
ed in your moneygrabbing to
post yourself concerning the
needs and the perils of the
country?
Do you really know what's
going on in America?
Have you even a fair con-
ception of the great issues
the important measures which
your vote helps to decide?
Do you comprehend for what
you cast your ballot? Have you
spent SO much as q whole hour
in your whole lifetime, examin-
ing the records Of the candidates
you have endorsed have YOU
once argued your nextdoor
neighbor into supporting the
better man, than his first pur.
blind choice, for the legislature
or the city council or for con-
gress?
What, in brief, is the sum
total of your contribution to
civics or to humanity?
What portion of your time
has been subtracted from play
or from work to better the lot
OF the community or a single
member thereof?
You, an American tommy.

Why, your patriotism is only

er "a maker of phrases
naught in the millions.
You're a barnacle on the Ship
of State a leech and a parasite
enjoying undeserved privileges
and prerogatives demanding
and accepting a protection
which you have never earned.
You're a drone in the political
bee hivea consumer of national
benefits and a producer only
for self-consumption.
You live entirely within your
self.
You eat but you plant MOTH

you set no trees-you drain
springs, but you sink no wells.-
you call for service, but you
render none.

1t is worse than useless to at

Constipation is caused by weak
ness of the nerves and muscles of the

TO expect permanent relief you must

The LOafer Sport.

William Allen White still breaches
an occasional lay sermon to the
young people of Emporia. In re-
cent issue of the Emporia Gazette
Mr.. White says:
You may remember his mother
a pretty girl who went to the high
school twenty-five years ago-an un-
usually pretty girl, who married a
gay young fellow to reform him. She
reformed him all right. He settled
down, but he had lost the confidence
of the town, and when he died ten or
a dozen years ago, he had job, but
that was all, and she had houseful
of children,
She buckled to her work and rear
| ed them-kept them all in school,
kept them decently dressed, whole
somely fed, and gave them every ad-
vantag that this town affords. But
| it took hard work, and it took the
beauty out of her eyes, put a stoop
in her shoulders, and put lines in her
face that will never come out. Hun
dreds of people watched the strug-
gle; and all of them were proud of
her.
The little girls are doing we'll;
they seem to know what it cost their
mother. But that boyle seems to
have an ambition to be sport. His
mother sees it and it is breaking her
heart. His sisters see it and they are
ashamed. They often wonder what S
the use of trying to keep up and be
somebody, and if it was not for the
blood of their mother in them they
would slump.
But the boy has to be a sport. He
has to sneak through a blind door
and up stairway on East Sixth Av-
enue and get whiskey, and he has to
loaf around the pool shacks with a
breath that would sour acement side
walk, and he has to wear the loudest
clothes and the brashest hat he can
get in tOWn-and mother pays for it
all, by Heaven knows what grinding
work.
The whole town knows that he is
"mooching" on his mother They
could stand for his drinking, they
might stand his loafing, and his gen.
eral cussedness-but sponging it
whiskey, cussedness and all-that is
too much. What miserable founda-
ton he is putting under his life
How it will tumble when the rains
fall and the winds blow upon that

Worth While.

sat one day in my fig trees shade,
and watched man as he piled his
spade. The man was old and his
steps were weak, and deep were the
burrows upon his cheek. l grieved
for him as he bravely wrought, for
his task was hard and the day was
hot; and the paltry wage that the
diggers get won't buy them napkins
to dry their sweat. "Old man." I
said with friendly smile, 'do you
really think that your life's worth
.while?" With red bandana he mop
ped his head, and leaned his weight
on his spade and said: II am the,
happiest man in town! Last night
married the Widow Brown" Then
the bridegroom turned to his yawn-
ing ditch, and his heart was glad and

the substituting Of players has been re-
fused. This state OF affairs reached a
crisis last Saturday. when Mr.. Murphy
IN making a suggestion as to the adv Sd
bility of making certain changes. wa
told to take a seat on the side-line bench
a singing rebuff.
Murphy always has been in charge OF
the scrub team at Pennsylvania While
he Is convinced t at part of the present
Pennsylvania system Is radically wrong.
he is so true and answering to the Red
and Blues interests that he has never at
tempted to instruct scrub players In his
ideas of the game In other words, ell
his arguments have been with the coaches,
trying to convince them thai ely are
wrong in several cardinal principles con-
nected with the game rather than teach
is ideas to the men, Yesterday after
noon he became so disguised with the
situation that he refused to coach the
scrub team, and for e first time nee
he has been connected w tn the UNIV rsity
of Pennsylvania re did not asst as the
sect nd team coach.
If Mr.. Murphy carries into execution
his present intention of leaving Pennsyl-
van.a after the completion Of the aca-
demic year the Red and Blue Will lose
it's most valuable athletic as ct. His abil-
ity to condition athletes Is only one rae
tor in his value as trainer. Mr.. Mur-
Lhy's personality can only be estimated
by ose who know him in timately. 1t Is
this side of his character that Is so in
fuential in making him the most potent
non-part ;cipant factor in the athletics at
Pennsylvania. His very name leads s u
dents, especially those inclined to track
athletics. to prefer Pennsylvania above
all other institutions. Young athletes
rightly consider that under Mike Muir
phys tutelaee they can be developed into
stars. ereas under other mems train
ing they would be no more than average
performers.
