School Day Spelling Matches.
/ obtained a school day book
the other day that set to work
memories of We little old school)
house back IN the country, and
the great spelling matches wa
used to have. I'll bet every read
er of Heard and Seen can recall
some of the words that dropped
him or her out of these matches
and I've been thinking If ] could
induce readers Of Heard and
Seen to write you their experiences
in this direction.
The book told Of how the last
fellow went down on his side be-
cause he became flustered on
sound. The leader on the winning
side had just been given "hyphen"
which she spelled correctly in a
hurry, and then flung "heifer" at
her opponent, with a pronunciation
like "hypher." He jumped too
quickly at the word and spelled it
"heiphcr." -.
Yes, those were great old
days.

SO badly at times I would almost

eighty one pounds. 1t seemed / was
just gradually starving by degrees,

After the best medical treat

a change of surroundings was adj

the United States and had treat

results. How l stood my suffering

THAT is just the condition 1

faith in it, but the next day he
bought me a bottle, and to my
great surprise it seemed to agree

The results speak for themselves.
Il have gained thirteen pounds

COx's ''COarseness"

Uuable to agree upon any other than denunciation
of Woodrow Wilson and his administration republicans have
taken to censuring Governor Cox for his rough-stuff
methods of campaign and to deporng his lack OF dgn-
ty Even Governor Coolidge aments Coxs coarseness in
exposing the sush fund.
In reply Governor Cox says "Who is it that is squeal
ing? Is it the crowd that fought sick in his bed
in the White House for year?
Yet it was not Cox who enoned campaign grafters to
SECT the Money! to do Kelly did, to Gve her the gas
step it, and other gentle slogans of courtesy for the boys
in extracting sush funds from organized wealth.
Harding and his standpat henchmen were always hor-
rfed at the rough-suf methods of Roosevetwhich did
not prevent Hardngs labelling the Colonel the Aaron
Burr and Benedict Arnold" of American politics. or prevent
his calling Hiram johnson "a gutter snipe and other
dgnfed expressions of esteem.
But of course it and progressives
are entitled to courtesy 1t all right to call the presl-
dent the United States all the in the calender to
deluge him with vllfcaon and bingsgate, to snoop at
his keyhoe and defame with scandathat is senatorial dig
nifty when the executive is democrat.
But for GovernorCox to insist that Senator Harding
cease talking patitudnous antiquities and speak plain
words" comes great shock. How plain words be
used footing campaign of issue straddlng Plain
words would be too coarse for utterance.

FOR ITCHING TORTURE
Use Antiseptic Liquid Zemo

There is one remedy that seldom
fails to stop itching torture and relieve
skin irritation and that makes the skin
soft, clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you WIN
Zemo, which generally overcomes skin
diseases. Eczema, itch, pimples, rashes,
blackheads in most cases give way
to Zemo. Frequently, minor blemishes
disappear overnight. Itching usually
stops instantly. Zemo is a safe, anti
septic LIQUID, clean, easy to use and
dependable. It costs only 35c; an extra
large bottle, $1.00. It will not stain. is
not greasy or sticky and is positively
safe for tender, sensitive skins. .
