Movement to Eliminate the Defective
Should Begin in the Schools.
By ARTHUR WOODS. Former New Police Commissioner

We have been very amateurish in handling
of the question of criminal detectives. Prevention,
of course, is the great aim. We do not want to wait
until crime has been committed before we do any
thing about the feeble-minded offender. 1t is only
fair to the individuals affected well to the public,
that examination should be made very generally and
that the proper kind of treatment should be given
to those who suffering from mental diseases. We
recognize this in bodily diseases, yet in many cases

Catharine soon learned that Monte

formaldehyde gives them burn enough

Pfeifle refused point blank to reveal
the name of the dealer he referred to.

Corns lift off and calluses peel off as if

or callus will be so loose that it lifts off.
Freezone dries instantly. It doesn't
eat out the corn or callus, but Just
shrivels it up so it lifts away without
even irritating the surrounding skin.
Women should keep it on the dresser
and never let corn or callus ache twice.

BIRDS SONG IDENTIFIES 1T
Once Heard, One Is Not Apt to Forget
the Trill of the Beautiful
Dickcissel.

AS far as we are informed, there is
but one American bird whose song can
be heard above the roar and rattle Of
a swiftly moving train, when the re-
ceiving end is on the said train.
You may be ''jazzing' along at sixty
or seventy miles an hour in your COM
Portable Pullman seat. and over the
tremendous hum and racket of the
steel caravan viii come to you from
the little feathered fellow on the tele-
graph wire outside the incessant song
of hOt-weather joy.
"Dick! Dick DickcisseI :"
Or, if you prefer another analysis: {:
Chip Chip. Chee-chee-chee! p
So the Dickcissel has a distinct
stunt of his Own-sOmething that no
other bird can initiate or rival. Some
times we think Dick is a bit proud Of
it, too, for he lines the railway right
of way clear across the middle west
ern and plains states in such numbers
his song is ever in our ears while you
are travelling.
The Dickcissel was formerly called
the black-thrOated bunting and is a
very beautiful creature as well as very
useful. He is mostly of a rich yellow
hue, with a black thrOat-but nobody
need identify him by his dress, for his
song is inimitable. In our experience
we never heard any of the mocking
birds attempt to initiate the "Chip -!
Chip! Chee-chee-cheer of the hot
weather friend.
He is really a salamander of the
air, too, for he is late in arriving and
early in departing, and does his best
vocal stunts when you and are gasp
ing beneath an electric fan. He eats
lots of bugs and weed seeds and is
a mighty good citizen.-Omaha World

SEASONABLE BEAUTY AID

We find you can bring out the

shampoo, which cleanses the hair and
scalp thoroughly of all the dandruff,
dirt and excess oil. leaving a wonder
fully clean. wholesome feeling. After
it's use you will find that the hair dries
quickly and evenly, is never ,streaked
in appearance and is always bright,
soft and fluffy; so fluffy, in fact, that
it looks more abundant than it is, and
so soft that arranging it becomes a
pleasure. Just use a teaspoonful of
canthrox, which you can get from any
good druggists, dissolve it in a cup of
hot water: this makes a full cup of
shampoo liquid. enough so it is easy to
apply it to all the hair instead of just
the top of the head.-Adv.
