Health and Beauty Advice
BY R MAE MARTINI

G. H.: Your friend was right when
she said you can dissolve the fatty
tissues and thus regain your symmet-
flcal hgure If you use simple parnotis
Tor a while. To prepare dissolve 4
ounces parnotis in IN pints hot water
and when it cools take a tablespoonful
before each meal. You will require no
dieting or rigid exercising and while
some fat, 1T in no way distorts the fig
ure. . When you weight is where you
want it, you can safely discontinue the
treatment and your skin and flesh will
be smooth and firm.
Mrs. A: 1t is foolish to countenance
that fuzzy growth on your chin. Get
a small, original package of delatone
he powder to make a thick paste, then
spread on hairy surface. After 2 or
3 minutes, rub off, wash the skin and
1t will be free from hair or blemish.
Be careful 1t is delatone you use.
Anna: AS I have before said, an ex-
cessiVely oily scalp or one covered with
dandruff, indicates a diseased condi-
to lose it's life and lustre and then fall
out. The recipe for my quinzoin hair
tonic I am giving o will correct these
faults and keep the scalp healthy so
hair naturally follows. Into II pint
alcohol pour 1 ounce quinzoin, then
add IL pint water. Use this tonic fire.
quently and you will not be bothered
with dandruff or excess oil and the
color of your hair will be rich and
even. r.
Hope: You are quite right, powder
does not protect the skin. 1t smothers
the small pores and causes nan COM
p~leXion troubles. [ ave found the
very best thing to use is a home made
spurmax lotion prepared as follows:
In II pint witch hazel or hot water,
dissolve 4 unces spurmax, then add
two teaspoonfuls glycerine. 1 apply
sparingly after washing and drying the
kin and am always delighted with the
rose-tint and velvety smoothness my
complexion assumes. This spurmaX
lotion is ideal for hot, windy days, be-
cause it really protects the skin and
assists nature in it's identifying pro-
cess. }-
Florence: our hair will regain it's
rich lustre and soft fluff if cleansed

ELEVATOR DISCRIMINATION.

In this issue of The Forum will be
found the complete opinion of At
storney General Miller. regarding alleg-
ed discrimination of elevator men Of
the state. This opinion is in response
to questions from the state board Of
railroad commissioners. 1t should be
read by every farmer n every eleva-
tor man in the state.
The attorney generals opinion seems
to cut both ways. That is, it holds
that discrimination by line elevators,
against farmers elevators for the pur-
pose Of killing off the farmers eleva-
tor, is a direct violation Of the law
n that it is the duty of the railroad
commission and the attorney general
to see that the practice is stopped.
The attorney general also holds. that
it is discrimination for a farmers
elevator company to pay it's stock
holders more than they pay any other
man for his grain.
r. Under the law the attorney general
can declare the charters Of any eleva-
ter company that has Disseminated,
void, n it is possible that some
prosecutions along this line may fol-
low the announcement of the opinion.
In both instances, the farmers are
being protected. The elevator men have
had things their own way for a long
time in North Dakota. Some Of them
have been fair and Just in their deal
angs. Some Of them have been decid-
edly the reverse. The state officials
have decided to see that hereafter
there shall be a square deal all
around. 1t Is another step forward
for the state.

ORIGINAL Name Was Washen.

Mr.. Joseph l. Keefer developed
some curious information on the an
cestery of Gen. George Washington.
In an address which he delivered before
William Cushing camp, Sons of Vot-
Grams, at Washington, Mr.. Keefer &c
clared that President Washingtor's
forefathers were not named Washing
ton at all. Their name was plan
Washen. In 1860 when John Washrn,
President Washington's great-grald-
father, sailed from the north of Eng
land for the colonies and settled for
a new life at a place called Pops, nsar
Colonial Beach, he revised his pleb;an
name of Washen for the more arirto-
cratic Washin gton. Mr.. Keefer gave
a sketch of the deep researches which
led him backward over the branches
of the Washen family tree for
than so generations, until he located
the original Washen at Cave Castle,
England. He had many interesting
pictures of historical subjects, which
he displayed in connection with his
lecture.

A nation is not merely an aggrega-
ton of individuals, but a body of
laws and institutions, welded into one
organic, living entity. Writing and
reading of history are beneficial only
in so far as history establishes a
school of morals.
The past Is a vast field. The bad
man as well as the good man finds in
cthe future a limitless haven for his
Imagination, and hopes for fame and
favor at the hands of generations to
succeed him. The historian, looking
back st years far fec. seeking to per-
ceive clearly through obscurity the
right relation of acts of indi, iduals. of
parties or of nations, is sometimes
inclined to doubt the soundness Of his
own judgment In a future that harks
back to a past so distant.
