PIMPLEs ON FACE AND ARMS

appear to come to a head. If l tried

them. They itched very badly; l suf-
fered terribly from itching. After
scratching, the pimples would swell
and after the swelling was gone my
face would become very red and re-

caused the itching to be worse. When
1t was warm it vas utterly impossible

The Noisy Noyes Again.

S'Sy 'SSySo NAdtUs
Ezra Pound, the PHILADELPHIA poet
whose work has thrilled London, sait
the other day of Alfred Noyes, hi,
British rival:
"Noyes declares that my torch o.
diluted Browningism, after a feeble
splutter, has gone out. Now, in re
venge, let me tell you a story about
Noyes and Swinburne.
Some time after Rossetti's death
Noyes wrote a long memorial poem.
He was so proud of this poem that he
waylaid Swinburne one morning on
Putney common and insisted on read
ing it to him.
"Swinburne tired to escape. but
Noyes bawled the whole 80 stanzas
into his poor deaf ear. Then, at the
end. he said. with a complacent smile:
There. sir. is my poem on Ros-
setti. What do you think Of it?'
LIT would be better Swinburne an
swered, II fou had died and Rossetti
had written the poem"

NEBRASKA.

Four horses abreast attached to q

windows and q p%rotruding s%tovepfpe.
With the words, Bound for Canada"
On the schooner's side, was the object
Of considerable interest as it passed
On the way northward from Nebraska
. short time ago through the towns
IN Nebraska, South and North Dakota.
After some weeks of strenuous travel
ing in this way, Mr.. ]. F. Jensen made
the overland trip from Jameson, Me-
braska, and with his little family made
the regular customs entry at North
Portal, in the province of Saskatche-
wan. Their destination was Willow
Bunch, a district that Mr.. Jensen
had selected as one in which it was
possible for him to work out his for
tune. He located on a good half sec
ton OF land, and intended putting on
1t some cattle that would fatten on
the wild prairie grass that grows SO
luxuriously in that district. In addi-
ton to this his purpose was to culti-
vate q portion of it and raise wheat,
oats, barley Or flax. In short, a life
devoted to mixed farming was what
he had in view and it is easy>t to un-
derstand that he will make a success
Of it, and in a year or so will attach
some more land holdings.
Although his beginning may be
small. it may safely be said that Mr..
Jensen. like thousands of others who
have begun life in western Canada on
no more and with probably much less,
win prosper. He will not be far from a
line Of railway. Schools will be close
ct hand and other social conditions so
necessary in q new country are avail
eble.-Advertisement.

CHAPTER XIX
THE WAY OF H1s CASTE.

The day after tho autumn primaries,
state politics was conscious Of a dis
tinct shock. The 'insurgent' governor
had triumphed again, but that was ex-
sation. attracting even national atten-
ton, was the defeat Of James S. Hall.
chairman of the most powerful COM.
mittee in congress-, confidant Of the
president-beaten in his home constiu-
ency, the sober caution counties of the
Iowa reserve. by an obscure country
editor!
The press buzzed with explanations.
It marked h temper of the rural west;
it meant the downfall of traditional
control; 1t was revolutionary, dema-
gogic. Curran was q socialist. anar-
knew exactly. Down in his home oun
ty folk said: Well. we always did
sort Of like Wiley Curran out our way"
In the other precincts OF the district
they said: THAT editor put up a slash
ing f1ght-he come over here and gave
US facts!"
Anyhow, Cdrran was the regular
party nominee. In Rome the best peo-
pie could not have been more indig-

and deliberately kicked Cal Rice on the

he would not support Curran; h old
