the governor mentioned that the fol-

1T IS CRIMINAL TO NEGLECT
THE SKIN AND HAIR

Think of the suffering entailed by
neglected skin troubles-mental be-
cause of disfiguration, physical be-
cause Of pain. Think of the pleasure
of clear skin, soft, white hands, and
good hair. These blessings, so essen
tial to happiness and even success in
life, are often only a matter Of little
thoughtful care in the selection of
effective remedial agents. Cuticura
Soap and Ointment do so much for
poor compilations, red, rough hands,
and dry, thin and falling hair, and cost
SO little, that it is almost criminal not
to use them. Although Cuticura Soap
and Ointment are sold everywhere, q
postal to "Cuticura," Dept. L, Bos-
ton, will secure a liberal sample of
each, with 32-page booklet on skin
and scalp treatment.

when you were denied the pleasure Of

admirer of Jeanne dare, and we plan
ned to cover the scenes of her tri-
umphs and misfortunes, since our first
history days.
The mediateval city has quite meas
ured up to my expectations. Jack and
| explored the glorious old Gothic ca
thedral from the crypt to the belfry
tower. What wonderful specimen of
architecture it is! We made several
fairly good sketches of the nave as
well as the exterior.
The torn of Richard Occur de Lion
is much defaced by vandals who col

In the Place de la Pucelle stands a
statue of the Maid of Orleans, over the
exact spot where she was burned.
The people of Rouen hold her very
name in sacred generation and relate
many traditions associated with her
tragic life.
The surrounding country is extreme
ly alluring, and each day we tramp for
miles. The well-kept fields of grain or
vegetables each has it's border of field
flowers blooming in riotous profusion.
Poppies, daisies, buttercups, and bluets
grow, apparently, to garland some
child's hat.
One afternoon, feeling rather tired
and hungry, after walking six miles,
we stopped at farm cottage and pro-
cured milk and fresh bread. The good
wife, typical belle of Normandy, was
most kind to us. She spread our feast

"I'M ONLY A LITTLE GIRL"
Falling Eyesight Responsible for an
Old Mans Mistake--Rebuke
Hardly Effective.

A certain group Of youngsters In an
exclusive West Side residential section
had been very noisy throughout the
forenoon.
The children were still doing their
utmost to initiate bedlam, when a
very angry old man appeared at the
door of nearby apartment house. He
was quite old, and it was evident that
his eyesight was not the best, but he
finally succeeded in picking out a
youngster who was aiding very strenu-
ously in the noise making.
The aged man walked over to the
child, took it by the hand and walked
back to the apartment. When he
reached the doorway he turned to the
child and said
Don't you know it's against the
law to make so much noise?"
Yes. sir" was the meek reply.
We'll. don't you know that you'll
be arrested and put In jail, and then
you can never be president Of the
United States?''
Please, sir?" replied the child, Il
don't care; I'm only little girl.

did everything in his power to re-
lieve her suffering. He supplied her
with appetizing food and at the risk OF
his life delivered messages to her
friends. During the long siege Of her
trial he faithfully served her in every
manner, and when the Inquisition final
" condemned her to death at the
stake he was heart-broken. The bish-
CD of Beauvais ordered her Bible and
rosary to be destroyed, denying her
the consolation of religion, SO far as
his power extended. Crushed and hui.
inflated, she awaited her terrifying
fate. The keeper, at her request, pro-
cured rosary from sympathetic
priest, who was powerless to aid the
maid. She was quite overcome by
the keepers devotion, and blessed him
many times.
Finally. the day set for the awful
event arrived and the innocent vic
tim of superstition was led forth from
her prison tower to pay the price OF
her service to Charles VII. of France.
When the light had been applied to
the fagots and the flames rose about
the frail form of Jeanne dare, the I'M
relenting bishop discovered the ros-
airy suspended at her side. He order
ed a priest to remove it, but as he
drew near the sanity Jeanne the
flames formed a forbidding barrier,
which no one could brave.
The rosary IS the cherished treasure
of the little woman, who is the only
surviving member of her family. She
claims that the rosary possesses the
power Of consolation, however great
the sorrow may be.
Dear Jean, you should know her!
she is the personification of peace and
repose.
