"WhO Can Find VirtuOus Woman?"

Our churches are closed today You will hear no ser- mons the editor of this page wants to give It is not original, is it It is than two thousand years old but its precepts pertinent to- day then and it's inunctons binding upon the Pine Bluff of today upon the Hebrew woman of the long ago. In lieu of the quiet hour in the Sanctuary this morning, let's read it and consider ourselves in it's light
 "Who find vrtuous woman? For her price is far above rubes The heart of her husband doth safely will do him good and not evil all the days of her life She seeketh wool and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands, She is like the merchants ships she brngeth her food from afar She rseth also while it is yet night and gveh meat to her household and portion to her maid ems.
 "She considereth field and buyeth it; with the fruit of her hands she panteth vineyard She glrdeth her Joins with strength and strengthenth her She perceveth that her merchandise is good her candle goeh not out by night She ayeth her hands to the spindle and her hands hold the distaf.
 "She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea she reacheth forth her hands the needy She not afraid of the for her household for all her household clothed with scarlet She maketh herself coverings of tapestry her clothing is silk and purple Her husband is known in the gates when he stteth among the elders of the land.
 "She maketh fine linen, and seleth it; and delivereh girdes unto the merchant Strength and honor her cothing and she shall rejoice time to She eth her mouth with wisdom and in her tongue the law hold and eateth not the bread of dleness.
 "Her children rise up and call her blessed her hus band also and he prseth her. Many daughters have done virtuousy but thou excelest them a Favor is deceit full and beauty is vain but that feareth the Lord she shall be praised.

New York-Mirzf, the clever young

 wonderful complexion, and when in

It con- sists of oatmeal and a toilet prep aration called derwillo. l am so glad to tell anybody how they may have skin like mine. This remarkable icombination instantly beautified my complexion and by using it regularly has produced permanent results. The experience I have had prompts me to make my secret public" When Mae Edna Wilder, the we'll known beauty specialist, was interviewed in refer ence to Mitzi's remarkable complex. ion stated, "Anyone can have g beautiful complexion when. they know how.

first application look in your mirror again and note the surprising change. A peach-like color mounts the cheeks; baby softness comes to the skin; it makes the skin rosy-white, velvety and radiantly beautiful. It is wonderful for dark, sallow skin, coarse pores, pimples, blackheads, chapped rough skin, ruddiness, wrin- kles and many other facial blemishes. This oatmeal combination is absolutely harmless and will not produce or stimulate growth of hair. It is superior to face powder, as precipitation does not affect it, therefore it stays on better. Thous- ands who have used it have had the same results as Mitzi, and am sure
 if you will give it a fair trial you will become just as enthusiastic as

tunity for brain work by either the coxswain or stroke.
 To prove his point that a fast three mile race will be more wearing than the four-mfle distance, Rice cites the case of Columbia and Cornell several years ago, when, after each crew had cooked" the other by continuous spurt, Syracuse came to the fore and carried off first honors. Under the three-mile conditions, says Rice, every crew will be cooked" and at the end of the race will be more exhausted and worn than in the longer distance. A longer, instead of shorter, train ing period will be necessary in his opinion.
 The only beneficial result he sees will be the likelihood of more crews entering the annual classic Wiscon- sin, which three years ago notified the stewards that 1t would enter crew in a three-mile distance only, is expected to take part in the 1920 re- gatta, and Rice looks also for entries from the Pacific coast, which formerly sent one and, sometimes, two repre- sentatives.

Coach Jim Rice Believes Four
 Miles Better Test.
Reduction in Length of Collegiate Race Would Eliminate All Opportunity for Strategy and Brain Work
 by the CoxsWain.

One of those who are opposed to shortening the annual collegiate race on the Hudson river at Poughkeepsie is Jim Rice, rowing coach of Columbia university. He believes four miles is better test for the colleges and is not so exhausting to the men.
 Rice is opposed to the reduction in the length of the varsity race, despite the unanimous verdict of the stewards at their meeting for the shorter con- test. The Columbia coach for many years led the opposition to this move, and still maintains that 1t will not re- suit in less physical strain on the oars men. He contends that the tendency of all crews will be to hit high stroke from the first gun and maintain the clip throughout the race. There will be none of the old strategy and no oppor-

 "A fighter with black eye or nose hero of war;" piped Tom O'Rourke the other night, while talking about old and tough fighters.
 { q get laugh at some of the shows now," continued Tom, when the crowd cheers the boy with a cut lip or a dis colored eye. The fighter himself thinks he's a Spartan. Why, years ago, the boys had to go twenty rounds or to a finish. Those were fights. That's where you had to show your true colors. You couldn't stall very well in 257round or finish fight, and a fellow unmarked in one of those goes was novelty.

 Harry Frazee, who had Frank Gotch and Jim Jeffries on tour of the coun- try years ago, has a bunch of stories about the pair that are ripe. He tells about Gotch meeting all corners.
 We were up in the North around Canada one night" says Frazee, land Gotch had offered $250 to any man who could stay with him for Is minutes. There were quite number ready, but the sports of the town were stuck on a big hairy lumberjack, and Frank agreed to take him on. This fellow was like a bear, with hair all over him. His chest looked like mattress with the coker ripped off Big, strong, dark and bairy, he was picture. They got to going finally and Frank llidded him for fully 10 minutes. Finally he Topped the bird, and getting his arms under his back some way so that he wouldn't be down, he took his right hand and picking hairs off the 1umberjack's chest started to say: He loves me, he loves me not. Two minutes later he had the 1urnberjack hatter than a founder"
