NEW CURE FOR Badness

Yes, they say a new cure for badness has
been discovered in Boston, warranted to grow
halr on a bone or whiskers on a cake of ice.
So the man with a clearing on his pate will
come in for a few more bromide joshes from
the gentlemen with incandescent imaginations.
It may serve to check the torrent to remark that
it is believed that the first cure for badness was
discovered in the early part of the reign Of that
Pharaoh of Egypt who was drowned while chas.
ing Moses and Aaron on moving day for the
land OF Goshen. At any rate the Pharaoh was
bald and physicians of his time peddled remedies
for badness, SO there is a case of circumstantial
evidence, AS badness has persisted until this
date, it is to be presumed that some of these
badness cures have been bald fakes. The Bos.
ton cure may be a perfectly legitimate thi1g
able to do all that is claimed for it-but there
may be persons who will prefer badness to hair.
not considering hairlessness as much of an afic-
ton as constant visits to the barber shop. There
are all sorts of opinions among us, you know

The simple life may be followed in Hawaii
very successfully by the sea, though here one
may be tempted, as Beatrice Grimshaw says, to
go native" a little too much. Bare feet and a
holoku (native dress) seem suitable costume,
and once taken to, it is hard to return to the bur
densome trappings of conventionality and cold
climates. Of course, on the beach at, or near,

days of prosperity and display one has to search
far in Hawaii before coming upon such simplicity.
Not long ago l stumbled upon the ideal, a little
shack close to the sea, yet pleasantly screened
from its glare by rows Of feathery ironwood
trees, and here I cast anchor for a season of
laziness. It was very pleasant for awhile, very
restful and restoring. At night l went to sleep

fresh holoku and went in to dinner. And the

FACE FULL OF PIMPLEs

4240 So. California Ave., Chicago, Ill.
About a year ago my face was full
of pimples and red spots. To sleep
one night without itching was almost
impossible. Some OF the pimples
would get big and red and If I touched
them they would pain, while others
would get white heads on them and
when they broke open some matter
came out. They would burn and itch
and / scratched them so that some
times they would break and bleed.
That always caused them to be worse.

creams and / found out that they did
me no good. I noticed the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment advertisement and

The New Fable of the Night Given
Over to Careless ReveIry.
All those who had Done Time at a

The Invitations looked like real

Committee on Lights and Music.
Committee on Speakers.
Committee on Decorations.
Committee on Police protection.
Committee on First Aid to Injured.
Committee On Maynew.
Committee on Liquid Nourishment,
Each Committee held numerous
Meetings, at the Call of the Chairman,
and discussed the impending Festivi-
ties with that solemn regard for piffiing
Detail which marked the Peace Con-
ference at the Hague.
The Frolic was to be perpetrated at
a Hotel famous for the number of Elec-

The Hour was to be $50 Sharp, SO
that by 6:45 four old Grads, with va
