Even Satan, in Medieval
Paintings, Wears a Halo

Saints, in pictures, are usually rep
resented with halos. Angels likewise.
Why? Ask the next man you meet
md you will find him guessing at the
reason.
Most people supposed that halos
were not worn until within the 1900
year or so. But that isn't true.
Roman emperors and even consuls
were pictured with halos long before
the birth of Christ. And, If history
tells Of them truly, they were neither
saints nor angels.
The halo was originally pagan
symbol of power. Thus 1t Is not very
surprising to find Satan represented.
In medieval paintings, with'a halo.
In that period it was customary 10
depict living personases of great "a.
thority with square halos.

second was placed by Pope Boniface

1t has been held that the three
crowns refer to the Holy Trinity.

been the original idea, for they would

Cincinnati authority tell. how to dry
up any corn or callus so it
lifts right off.

You corn pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the
shoes that nearly killed you before,
says this Cincinnati authority, be-
cause a few drops of freezone ap-
piled directly on a tender, aching
corn stops soreness at once and soon
the corn loosens so it can be lifted
out, root and all, without bit of
pain.
A quarter of an ounce Of free
zone costs very little at any drug
store, but is sufficient to take off
every hard or soft corn or callus.
This should be tried, as it is inexpen-
sive and is said not to inflame or
even irritate the surrounding tissue
or skin.

broken up and interrupted, and when

When these symptoms are recog-

because the food taken has been in eX-

Such a man was laboratory assO-

he felt he had been neglecting all

had to be done to restore balance.
Query, should he fast himser back to
health, or should he emulate the old
Romans andostart with feast?
Most people are familiar with the
ancient Roman feast, whose features
we would describe nowadays move &C.
curately with the name Of orgy or de-
bauch. These feasts always made them
sick and the physical reaction would
be such that no food was taken into

) SCHOOL SEGREGATION
FAILS IN CINCINNATI

Cincinnati, O.-The Color
ed people of Cincinnati have
finally defeated an effort
made for over year to COM
pel all the children OF the race
to attend the Stowe School.
known as a Colored school.
This attempt at segregation
has been resisted by the par
ents for many months, but ev
ery obstacle had been placed
in the way of their securing
transfer or admission for the
children to the other schools.
When the matter was put up
squarely to the super'ntend +.
ent. no legal authority could
be found for forcing the child
rem to attend the Coloreo
school and transfers we're nm
ally secured to the schools OF
their choice.
The situation was summed
10 by w. P. Dabney. in the
Union, as follows:
I'VE wish it distinctly un-
derstood that intelligent col
ored do not object to Colored
teachers, but they do object
to Colored schools, they OBJ
;ect to the idea involved OF
segregation, Jim Crowism'
and prejudice in public lnst'-
tutions supported by taxation
directly or indirectly, o. citi-
zens of the community. They
love Colored teachers and
they respect colored teachers
but feel that they should be
distributed among all OF the
schools, just as the children
should be free to go to any
school. There is tendency
now to segregate Negroes IN
everything of public nature
and we regret to say that
some of our colored leaders
spurred' on by ambition and
desire for money. hight tor
their own selfish desires rath-
er than labor for the general
good. We have no German
Irish, Jewish, French or ltal-
ian schools. Only the color
ed people are ranked as un'
wortey of association, regard
less of their ability, morals or
wealth. What a rotten sys-
tenn of Christianity. 1t Negro
children are not up to stand

history of African Methodism
in the middle West. The at

the sessions, the reports show

tertainment was all that could
have been expected in a city
whose colored population was
many times greater than that
of Boulder. Rev. A. Wayman
Ward and his congregation
proved themselves royal hosts
for aside from the usual court
esls shown on such occasions,
the Commercial Club of Boul
