STRICT LAWS
A Time When Parents Couldn't
Kiss Their Children
on Sunday

Washington Post: The pilgrims
were the fret prohibitionists in this
country. They pohibited by law
many things which were else where
regarded as purely personal ril hts,
though they had emigrated to America
for the purpose of securing greater
liberty of conscience. Some of them
prohibited the people from eating
mince pie, or dancing, from playing
cards or having cards. from crossing a
river ON Sunday, from kissing their
children on the sabbath aud feast days,
from having any musical instruments
except the drum, the trumpet and the
iews-harp, from giving food or lodging
to Il hereto, from travelling OF cooking
on the Sabbath day, and from doing
many other things that are not now
regarded as customs to be regulated
by law.
These prohibitionists in the early
pilgrim colonies were SC harsh that

Unier the provisions Of the compul-

associations and pay their prOportionate

as other property taxes are collected.
The results of the operation of this law,
according to State Forester Elliott,
have been very beneficial to the tim.
ber industry Of the state and the dan
ger Of loss by fire has been reduced to
a minimum.
"The results and influence of the
compulsory patrol law, both direct and
indirect, on the forest protection work,
is more clearly brought out by COM
parison Of acreage data says Mr.. Ell.
liott, in discussing the subject. "In
1912, the year before the enactment of
the law, the owners Of 100000 acres
contributed toward forest protection ex-
penses, either through association or in
diyidual patrols. During the season of
1914 the cost of such service was borne
by the owners of 6,S77,7O0 acres, an
increase Of l7j per cent.

between 1912 and 1914, or 4,377700
acres, comprises the acreage now con-
tributing towards the protection Of
their property because of the provis-

it not for the enactment of this law
it is obvious that timberland owners

acreage with what little assistance the
state could give, would still have to pay
practically the entire cost of the pro-
lection work.

its provisions should be continued unless
we desire to go back to conditions pre-
yailing in 1910, when numerous fires
were allowed to develop into conflagra-

$780, 1910, merely because no COM

to promptly subdue fires in timberland

It soon got worse and my face was all spotted and rough, and it itched me mo very very much at night, and caused me no end of discom- fort. After month or so, pimples and blackheads began to show, first in small numbers and then gradually covering my entire face. It was awful. The pimples were sore and the rash was itchy and my face had a most un-. slightly appearance. I could get no relief. Resinol Soap. and Resinol Oint- ment caused me instant relief. By the time another jar of Resinol Ointment and cake of Resinol Soap were gone, l gan truthfully say that it was com plete cure.
