Certainly most of us would be sur prised to see a picture of the devil with a halo above his head. We have be- come accustomed to recognize the halo as perquisite of sacred persons, most of whom are painted with this aura around their heads. But in the olden times the devil was also painted with a halo of his own, as medieval pictures will bear witness. and long before his satanic majesty came to be a figure in

Christian religion other men were rep. resented by painters and mosaic work : CTS as having a halo over their heads.
 In fact, this custom antedates Chris tianity itself. The halo, sacred now, was a pagan invention. Roman em- perors and other personages were all ways accorded a halo by painters. It was the symbol of power. And what more natural than to invest Satan with a halo when Christianity took hold of mems minds? For he was the supreme embodiment of wickedness, of power diverted to bad ends.

The Robesonian adjudges that there
are 250,000 German sympathizers in
this country that should be killed. The
way to get it done is to keep agitating
it till enough such patriots as those
who hanged Prayer can get filled with
booze. But wouldn't the slaughter of
25O,O 900 make the Turkish massacres
of Armenians pale into insignificance!
But if we must play the Turk at all

German spies and sympathizers in
this country deserve just about as soft
treatment as mad dogs and rattle
snakes deserve. We are talking about
infamous wretches who should be
hanged or shot decently and in order
and not by mobs. Surely The Demo
crat does not mean to compare the
atrocious massacres of innocent wo
men and children by Huns and Turk.

small sum from each individual if all

amount of subscriptions to the second

LIKE AN ELECTRIC
BUTTON ON TOES
Tells why a corn is SO painful an,
says cutting makes them grow.

Press an electric button and you
form contact with a live wire which
rings the bell. When yours shoes
press against your corn it pushes its
sharp roots down upon sensitive
nerve and you get shock of pain.
Instead of trimming your corns,
which merely makes them grow, just
step into any drug store and ask for
quarter of an ounce of freezone.
This will cost very little but is suffi-
cient to remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet. A few
drops applied directly upon tender
aching corn stops the soreness in
stantly, and soon the corn shrivels up
so it lifts right out, root and all
without pain. This drug freezone is
harmless and never inflames or ever
irritates the surrounding skin.
