must needs be played and always
there will be found players, but the
price paid is out of all proportion to
the small success that comes to those
who win. For he who wins is loser, If
not in dollars and cents, in loss OF
honor and self respect and the conf
dence of his neighbors and friends.
l see that the Goddess OF Liberty
on the Court House has on a new

relief in an arch support made and
provided for such Affections. But, il

pleasure you can out of life. There is
at present no known remedy for a flat
head.

look at the back of his head. If it's |

a Hun and you should report the
matter at once-all Huns have flat
heads. No mistake about it. But all
flat heads are not Huns.
Some women can wear short skirts
and low cut waists and get by with it.
Others there be who cannot. 1t all
