To get rid of a soft corn apply a
little raw cotton soaked in castor oil.
Bind it upon the corn with strip of
old linen. 1t is a good idea to first
soak the foot in hot mustard and
water. While working for a cure an
easy shoe must be worn.
To clean lamp burners wash them
in wood ashes and water and they
will come out clean and bright.

"VINCIT OMNIA VERITAS."

Walter H. Newcomb, the bard OF
again strikes the Tyre and
tells in verse the story of his acquit-
tai.
"NOt Guilty."
The perfect and imperfect laws
Must lead to bad or good;
No river flows without a cause,
Unless some greater body draws,
For Satin or for God.
1 found the laws of God were just,
When freedom was redeemed; r<
In Him l laid my holy trust,
AS l sincerely knew l must;
Or sink upon life's stream.
My attorney who was John j. Blaine,
So gently lead me through,
The evidence that he explained,
Was introduced and shone so plain,
To judge and jury too.
District attorney in his plea,
Who only played his part,
With evidence so frail that he
Could hardly plead the case with me,
Contrary to his heart.
Descending down the golden stairs,
Was my decision given;
The Almighty Judge of higher airs,
To the circuit judge who finds it
bears
The signature of heaven.
The judge instructs the jury then
AS how they should decide:
AS they were all enlightened men,
And knew just how the case should
end
mot Guilty" they replied.

year. First two worlds records were
made in the state, one by an Iowa
man, Charles Hoyt, of Grinnell. This
in itself is notable, as not since 1898
has an Iowa collegian dallied with
worlds college records, Homer Holland
at that time setting still existent
worlds record in the hop step and
jump Of forty eight feet ten inches.
This was followed by q track season in
which most of the teams of the state
demonstrated their ability to hold their
own with teams from outside Of the
state and with a notable state meet
in which probably the best class Of
men who ever competed in the classic
entered, competition. The high school
competition did not present worlds
records but it did present the largest
number of athletes who ever took part
in competition In the state The state
meet was the most sterling competi-
