4 GIRLS COMPLEXION

Very few girls get through their teens
without eruptions or pimples showing on
their faces.
These may be due to indigestion result
ing from improper diet. If SO they will
quickly disappear when the proper food
is adhered to. If they are accompanied
by pallor and listlessness you must look
to the condition Of the blood.
Because these eruptions on the faces Of
school girls are so common they seldom
receive the attention from parents that
they require. When they indicate thin
blood or anemia there is ready remedy
in DR.. Williams Pink Pills These tonic
pills, free from harmful drugs, are pretty
sure to help growing girls because they
build up the blood at time when the
demand on it is greatest. As the blood
is made rich and red, tickle appetites be-
come normal, lassitude gives way to
yigor, the cheeks and lips show the glow
of health and the whole system is toned
up. The nervous system is invigorated
and with proper attention to diet many
dangers are averted.

Thorne's activity before the senate
committee on the judiciary in oppos-
ing the confirmation of Mr.. Brandeis
for the supreme bench will, to the
minds of many, react in favor of the
presidents appointee. Mr. Thorne at

and alleges that he was guilty of
gross infidelity in the conduct of a
government railroad rate case which

cases of this generation" MIR. Bran
,leis' offense in the eyes of Mr..
Thorne rests in the fact that the for
mer, after threshing out the merits
of the case. came TO the conclusion
that the railroads demand for higher
freight rates was justifiabie. Mr..
Thorne did not reach the same con-
clusion as did Mr.. Brandeis, and
therefore the Boston lawyer must be
wrong and everything else In the
category OF misconduct.
No one but extremely blaise indi-
viduals like Mr.. Thorne will think
that MIR. Brandeis was actuated by
improper purposes in the conduct Of
the case in question. The great op-
position to Mr. Brandeis' appointm ent
is based chiefly on the widespread
belief of those competent to render
correct judgment that he is not of
that temperament so essential TO a

of the belief that those who do not
see things from the same viewpoint
as he, are therefore mistaken and
actuated by dishonorable motives, he
cannot be expected to render able

TEST YOUR SEED CORN.

"The farmer who doesn't test his
corn this year will simply be using
his SITS an acre land as termination
box next summer" says r. K. Bliss,
head of the agricultural extension de-
partment at Iowa State college which
is seeking to make the state realize
how serious the seed corn situation
really is.
The extension campaign to help
counties meet the seed problem Is
now organized in twenty-five counties.
They are Cerro Gordo. Floyd, Worth.
Mitchell. Winnebago. Butler, Grundy,
Allamakee. Chickasaw, Pocahontas.
Emmett, Beuna Vista, O'Br!en and
Sioux. Clay, Greene. Wright, Black
Hawk, Linn. Clinton. Scott, Mnsca-
tine, Des Moines, Henry and Mont
gomery counties have county agents
who are conducting their campaign.

the more counties we canvass, says
Mr.. Bliss I'VE have just completed
survey of Floyd county. In that

seemed suitable for seed were tested.
Only 1,750 tested eighty per cent

strong; S.715 bushels, forty to sixty
per cent strong and 1920 tested TWEEN

MAN WITH A DREAM.

WAN WI n n 0hEAm.
He may be right or he may be wrong
He may be false or he may be
The singer is often more than the
song,
The idea more than the man, per-
due,
But right or wrong, there's glory in
it
When the man with the dream goes
forth to see
What the world and the man and the
dream may be.
And the ship may sink and the brave
go down,
And the wrong may triumph and
know no rest
But one man more may have won a
crown
For trying a little to do his best!
And the dream won't hurt, and the
seed may blow
In fertile heart that will come in
time
10 help it sprout and help it grow
In the sun and rain of a kindlier
cline.
It is SO with dreams, and with men
that dream
None ever knows what t.ere is in
store
Till he follows the path of the Turing
CLEAN,
Or whether it leads to peace or war;
For without the dream there is never
deed
That is worth the hour it costs to
do
And the man with the vision is this
days need
For man may be false, but the
dream is true!

by Arthur Shattuck. The entire tour
OF recitals, which included the cities

was marked by series of ovations,
and the concert rooms were in every
instance crowded to the doors.
II was continually impressed with
the musical discrimination of the Ice

the Bach numbers. and there was a.
constant demand for more Bach and
