HOW RESINOL
CLEARS AWAY
UGLY PINPLES

1t is SO easy to get rid Of pimples
and blackheads with Resinol. and it
costs SO little, too. that anyone whose

with Resinol Soap and hot water, then
apply q little Resinol Ointment very
gently. Let this stay on ten minutes.
and wash off with ResinoI Soap and
more hot water, finishing with a dash
of cold water to close the pores. Do
this once or twice a day, and you will
be astonished to see how quickly the

Detecting Unsoundness.
In addition to the study Of the horse
in this way, John White of Aberdeen
S. D., took a horse and illustrated the
way in which to detect the various
unsoundness q horse is liable to devel-

thes unsoundnesses and their proven

Score Card on Corn.
The corn demonstration work con-
sisted Of a study of corn with a view
towards selecting the best for seed,
yield and profit. A score card was used
only as an indicator and not an infal-
lible guide for corn selection. It simply
helps the uninitiated and inexperienc-
ed to keep in mind the various points
of the corn.
In selecting the best type Of corn
for any section, 1t was brought out
that the farmer should consider the
following questions: Will it grow?
Will 1t mature? Is it profitable? and
does it show improvement? Practical
work in determining these questions
was "iven.
The hog demonstration work this
afternoon was especially interest
ing and consisted mainly in showing
the difference between the lard and
bacon types; a discussion Of the diff
ferent types and their value.
The lard type hog. it was demon
strated, must show good form and
size, being deep. broad. long, low-set
and symmetrical throughout. In con
stitution, it should show a capacious
chest, low and well advanced; the
TANKS should also be low and full.
with a good spring Of ribs; the neck
and head should blend into the Shout
ders, having no ridges, Jumps or hol-
lows in between, and the hams should
be feshed well down to the hook, the
legs should be short, straight, set un-
der the corners Of the body and the
hog should stand squarely on it's toes
and not be Sprawling.
The bacon type, it was said. may be
called the greyhound type, since it is
much longer, more rangy, more slab
sided and require a longer time to
mature.
The hog demonstration work was
continued today. A. V. Lindberg of

Watching Every Move

Such was the man who. amid the rude luxury and almost barbaric magnifi- cence of his castle, awaited the coming of his mortal enemy, the Abbot Boni- facius.
 There was an air of indifference and neglect among the retainers who were visible in the great castle-but that was only seeming.
 True, the men-at-arms of the garri- son which the count had summoned from his retainers to assemble at the hold in apprehension of conflict at arms with his neighbor, the abbot, were where they were in plain view, not armed at all points
 But in the towers and at the gates were stationed soldiers fully accoutered and in addition. swift scouts in the valley kept watch of every move made in the villages, on the rock of Limburg and even in the city of Durkheim-they were eyes and ears of their master the count.
 Nothing could exceed the courtesy with which the count received the ab- bot as the latter entered the gates of the castle.
 q esteem Hartenburg more than honored when thy revered head passes under its portals" began the count as he officiously assisted the abbot to dismount.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-04-12
Ulricke's Warning

Years ago." said the count, walk ing up and down the apartment, you sent me message of rejection. Did your heart speak there?'
 "rhere spoke my heart, my lord count,p replied Ulricke
 Even if we had been of equal rank"
 Even if wa had been of equal rank !" Enrich turned the subject to the Benedictines and told Ulrioke that she would deserve all his good offices should she strengthen her husband in his resolve to stand no more oppres- sion from the monks of Limburg
 Count Enrich cried Ulricke, "rath- CT than aid you In this wicked scheme, this unhallowed design; rather than do aught against the altars of God, I would follow my girl to the grave and lay my head beside her without regret for that calm decline which, when the weary probation of life is ended. heaven grants to the deserv- ing"
 The count recoiled at the energy of Ulricke-for none are so commanding as the mild when aroused to resist ance, or so authoritative as the good when driven to exhibit the beauty of their principles.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-04-12
A Mothers Heart

Scarcely had they concluded theii treaty when Ulricke entered and was filled with surprise to see her husband seated with such familiarity in the pres enece of the count
 "If l do not come amiss,' said she T crave to be heard by both of you upon a matter that nearly toucheth a mothers heart"
 It was a plea she made for the count to use his influence with her husband to get him to allow the marriage of Meta with Berchthold Hintermeyer.
 "The youth is pennilessl" cried the burgomaster. "Is he fitting husband for the daughter of Heinrich Frey, bur gomaster of Durkheim?"
 "Berchthold is youth I love- grave ly remarked the count. Give us leave l would fain reason this matter with your wife, without the aid of your in- fiuence.'
 Well well. reason with her then Herr Count"
 And, giving his wife a kiss, he left the apartment, to go and boast among the company assembled in the castle of the signal honor Emerich had done him.
 'l would gladly be of aid in this mat ter" said the count when he was alone with Ulricke, for l see thou hast il at heart. You have been lucky in your own marriage?"
 God has blessedAhe with many mer- cies," returned Ulricke, but the ques- ton is of Meta"

Fallen From His Estate

The forester was of the middle class and his father had been a wealthy burgher of Durkheim-once had served as burgo- master.
 But he had spent his money freely and died poor and his son had come to occupy his present station of forester to Count Enrich, thus being able to sup port the ex-burgomaster's widow, who lived with her son in a cottage in the counts village below the castle of liar tenburg
 People made and lost money in the reign of the Emperor Charles V and de- scended in rank, even as they do now.
 The forester was armed only with hunt ing knife but Gottlobe carried an old halberd which his father had wielded in some forgotten petty war of the Herman states.
 Gottlobe was the counts cowherd and was devoted to his master. Also he was very superstitious and kept close to Berchthold as they entered the haunted moor.
 As the forester and the cowherd ap- preached the hermit's hut d young woman wrapped in mantle passed out Leay- ing Gottlobe to interview the hermit, Berchthold walked to the side of the maiden.

The AbbOt's Garrison

But the thought of what might have been' was quickly banished from the counts mind by the sight of a consider able body of soldiers drawn up in the courtyard-soldiers wearing the cogni- zance of the Elector Frederick
 The abbot had garrisoned his monas- tery as the count had garrisoned his cas- tie. And the troops which the abbot mad brought to his aid were the troops of the Elector. whose vassal Count Enrich was
 To attack them would be little short of treason. But the Elector Frederick was having his own troubles just then-his throne seemed to be tottering to a fall
 Enrich considered that he might take a chance. He could stoi nj the monastery and explain afterward. For if he did not storm the monastery that warlike ab- bot might storm the castle.
 Still, 1t might be well to put somebody else forward as the offending party He held out his hand to the burgomaster and said:
 T know that l can command your duty. So turn your horses head toward Hartenburg today, and, with your good wife. share my poor fare''

The Heidenmaur

A recluse established himself in an old Roman camp called the Heiden- mauer, about midway between the castle and the convent. The count invited the abbot to dinner.
 Let us speak of the Heidenmauer first. This old Roman camp had a reputation of being haunted by the ghosts of the old empire builders who first constructed it and by the Huns of Attila who oc- cupied it afterward.
 But when the hermit came there and, repairing one of the ancient stone huts former barracks which had rung to the clashing of the Roman shield and sword and had witnessed the shining of tie Hunnish spears-people began to visit it.
 It was night when Berchthold, accom- panied by his foster brother Gottlobe, made his way to the Heidenmauer. He was a comedy youth of some 20 odd years well built and of fair exterior.
 His person was well set off by his hunt ing suit of green and his cap of green velvet, the silver badges of his office shinging here and there about his uni- form in the dim light
