ttSACHARISSA."

Dorothy Sidney. the "sacharissa" of Edmund Walters (Cavalier Poet) perfect and impassioned verse, was born In 1920. In the year that the Pilgrims climbed into the Mayhower, the lovely girl who shone as a lily in a quarrelsome and corrupt age first saw the light. She was one of the brightest ornaments of virtue in the Court of Charles I. The eldest of eight daughters of the Earl of Lei cester she had in her veins the noble blood of the Peroys, her mother be- ing the daughter of the ninth Earl of Northumb erIand. Waller was her ardent suitor, but the young. lady de- cIined his addresses. She, gentle and virtuous, he, wild and gifted and dis soIute. His poem to 'Sacharissa'' is one of the gems of English Literature. ''Sacharissa'' married the Earl of Sunderland. Waller cursed, and tore up the earth and vowed anathemas on her. These latter are amusing, for they never came true.

Once CINOT has been used in a home it is there to stay all the ad- vertising in the world cannot make a success out of a remedy unless il has merit.

 "I have had severe case of rheu- matism of my joints, my muscles were sore as boils; I could hardly move around the house. I tried every thing I ever heard of to get results and 10, and behold, after the first bottle my pains and aches left me entirely. have now taken three bottles and I honestly believe that am cured.'
 CINOT is a purely herbal remedy made from the juices of natures Herbs, parks, roots. leaves an6 blooms It is a scientific combina- tion and strong as this statement 1s if directions are implicitly followed i will permanently relieve chronic con stipatton no matter how long stand ing.

Battling Levinsky Is
 After Jack De1npse

Dan Morgan is trying hard to land his boxer, Battling Levinsky, in a match with Jack Dempsey. The fol- lowing is Morgan's latest effort.
 Battling Levinsky is the only con
 tender with a chance against Demp- sey. When in condition the Battler
 can outboX the Man-KiIler. Levinsky
 has everything to make a good battle
 against the champion, and in the
 opinion of Jack McAuliffe, Jack Brit
 ton, and many other good judges
 Levinsky's speed, science, and game
 ness will outwit the conqueror of Jess
 Willard.
 Levinsky will guarantee Dempsey $50,00O for a chance at the cham pionship, and the public will see no one or two-round knockouts as would
 happen if Dempsey met the other contenders. The following are u
 faults of the men who are supposed to be anxious to mingle with the champion:
 Fulton's nerves will cause him to be battered around the ring and knocked out inside of one round. K. o. Bill Brennan is easy to hi; and that means a one-sided contest with Brennan acting the part of a punching bag until the referee stop, ! it.
 The other contender, Battling Lev insky, only needs condition, for tho i last time the Battler met Dempse! he had Jack worried while his wint 1 lasted. Dempsey missed fifty left ant right hand swings that he tried t. i land on the most scientific heavy l weight in the world today. It was | lucky right-hand swing that brough | the bacon home to Dempsey in tho i third round.
 | Now don't think you know it all | for Levinsky will surprise you ant | the sporting public by throwing box | ing gloves at the champion, if tn, l boys meet in the near future.

A lave affair having gone askew, and an unfortunate marriage to man thrice her age, turned Ida Pfeiffer' g thoughts into the " <~, wide world, and she began her famous journeys, four voyages which went four times not only around the -1rid, but in and out of the world, including the islands of cannibals near Java, the mysteries of Peru and Equador; Bag dad; and Otaheite in the Pacific Ocean, Panama, and the United States.

 Miss White ordered some samples made. She tried them and found that they were exceptionally refreshing; and she has a standing order for a fresh lot of toothpaste to be deliver ed to her weekly. She has distributed some of it to her friends, who pro- nounce it of the most delightful fla yor.
 Miss White says she expects to find a way to make it on a large scale in which event she will place it on the market.
