The Importance Of Skin Care
In the Springtime

infectious skin diseases are irritat-
ing, unpleasant, unsighuy and dam
gerous. There never was a greater
mistake made than trying to cure such
disorders with pastes, lotions, or
creams, rubbed on the outside You
can't cure skin diseases that way, be-
cause they are the direct result of in
fected blood, and you can't rub or
soak poisons out Of the blood.
The annoyances Of skin troubles are
worse in spring than any other time.
The Precipitation that starts with the
first warm days intensifes the smart
ing, burning sensation, and makes the
trouble almost unbearable. There Is
only one way to relieve them, and
that is through the blood, which must
be thoroughly cleansed and purified.
There is only one remedy that you can
rely upon to do this, and that III

Music Was Upside Down.

Laughter trickled through the au-

at Alexandria during program given
by the children of the church. One
little girl who was very anxious to fill
her part on the program wished every
body to know that she had learned
her music well and when playing on
the piano she frequently turned from
side to side to look at the audience.
When about half way through the
number she stopped with reluctance.
She had forgotten part Of the piano
number, and on close observation dis
covered that the music sheet was up
side down on the music rack. While
the audience waited the little girl

Legend Of the French Poppy.

During the early stages Of the pres
emit war strange phenomenon on the
battleields Of northern France was
the abundance of peoples, all the roads
being bordered by large tracts of the
red flowers, which gave the impression
that the bloodshed there had come
forth to the surface once more. In
any case this is the popular belief
among the peasants of the districts
where battles ragged only some
months ago; but the real explanation
is that the poppy Is the companion
of wheat In France, just as the blue
bell mingles with the corn in Russia.
and that the poppy has usurped all
the space.
