Another case as remarkable as
that of the old man was the cure of
a woman whose joints were all
twisted and swollen with rheuma-
tism. Her husband sought out the
healer and led him to their cottage,
where they found the poor woman
sitting beside the fire in great
agony. 1t took two men to move
her from one spot to another. She
had both dropsy and rheumatism,
and weighed about 260 pounds. Mr..
Hickson prayed over her and put
his hands upon her, and within a
few days she was able to move
around without any help The
swelling went down and her gnarled
joints were smoothed out. In SIM

Washington, Nov. 20.-The peace

United States Senate. The Lodge

chief opposition. motion by Sena-
tor Underwood to ratify the treaty un-
conditionally failed, 50 to 5S, the Re-
pubIicans constituting the chief oppo-
sition.
In this state of deadlock between
irrecOncilable factions which had
failed to reach any compromise, the
treaty was declared dead, so far at
least as this session of Congress is
concerned. President Wilson may re-
submit the treaty at the December
session and make an effort to reach
an agreement with the Republicans on
ratification with reservations.
AS soon as the treaty had been pro-
nounced dead for this session Senator
Lodge introduced concurrent resolu-
ton declaring the war at an end and
state of peace with Germany re-
stored. This resolution was referred
to the foreign relations committee for
consideration at the next session. II

the signature of the President, Con-

|rHE KING AND THE BOY scours.

On the day that King George gave his
great garden party to those who had
distinguished themselves in patriotic
work during the war, there were in
cluded only two organizations Of
young people. These were the boy
scouts and the girl guides.
The king particularly asked that the
boys and girls themselves should be
present to the number of 15O. as rep
resentatives Of the rest. Picked, as
they were, one from every county In
the British isles. they naturally pre-
sented very smart lot.
The king talked for quite a while
in praise of the work of scoutmasters.
Results were what he Judged by, not
the steps. Results are the only test,
and the results reflected with greatest
possible credit on the workers. He
said that he had personal experience
Of this, because. on account of their
capability, scouts had come now to be
used for all large functions at the pal
ace.
And he went on to say this Of
scouting: 1.-THE beauty Of scout is
that you never have to tell him what
to do, and you can rely on his doing 1t.
A scout never makes mistake.

SCOUTS LIKE WOOL CAMP Dvos

Bodily moisture can evaporate
through woolens much more easily
than through cotton or linen cloth.
which keeps the moisture In its texture
until 1t is thoroughly saturated. And
1t is the dampness next to the skin that
causes colds and chills-so stick to
woolens.
But, see that you wash 'em right!
You kill their bitterness right on II
you let little bits Of soap get In be-
tween the f1bers and thus clog up the
channels through which the moisture
Is supposed to 60.
A good way is to soak the garments
In lukewarm suds. then squeeze out
the water by pulling the woolens
through the hands. And don't twist or
wiring, II you don't want to invite
stretching or shrinking.
Just get ont as much Of the water as
you possibly can and hang the "duds"
up to dry.
