How is Your Complexion?

A woman should grow more
beautiful as she grows older and
she will with due regard to
baths, diet and exercise, and by
keeping her liver and bowels in
good working order. If you are
haggard and yellow, your eyes
losing their lustre and whites be-
coming yellowish, your flesh
fabby, it may be due to indiges-
ton or to a sluggish liver. Cham

the report of the secretary, which

1.-THE proposed building is entire
ly separate from the new home when

sons of Masons.
"The officers elected at the meet
ing are: Floy L. Sperry, president;
Louis D. Potter, vice-president, Ed
win L. Ocker, secretary; S. G. Hunt,
treasurer; Warren H. Moore, tinan-
cial secretary. Mr.. Hunt is not a

the Boone County Trust Company OF
Columbia,
an order that the interests Of the
Masons of the state may be safe
guarded, a board of trustees, compos-
ed of three resident business men OF
Columbia, will be elected, and nc
money whatsoever will be spent with
out the approval of this board. The
executive committee will be composed
of the officers, the chairman of per
manent committees, and n faculty
representative.
"Plans are now being made for the
launching of a statewide campaign
to raise the necessary funds for the
erection of this student building"

 "In large rooms with high ceil- ings, very attractive result may be obtained by using a paper with a small geomtrical design set closely together so, as to give a solid ap- pearance a short disance away.

 ''Only large pictures may be used on figured walls with any degree of success and very often these are superfluous. Good pictures are an asset to any home if only they are hung correctly. One does not need to be a millionaire in order to have good pictures on the walls.

 "The seeding must be carefully done. The practice of blowing the seed under by blowing shallow is a poor one, indeed, and the practice of blowing the land in rough condi- ton, scattering on the seed and har- rowing lightly is likewise poor one. The seed should be planted evenly in depth, but not too deep. Just one thing will make proper seeding possible and that is the grain drill. The seed should be covered from one to two inches deep so that it may come up promptly and begin growing immediately after seeding It is to bring about the early es- tablishment of a perfect and even stand that makes all processes, in- cluding blowing, disking, narrowing and seeding so important. The for seeding must be perfect for it can not be remedied after the seeding is done.

 FACTORS IN GROWING OATS

Plan to plant oats early as It IS one of the most important factors influencing the success of growing oats in Arkansas, according to Mar in Nelson, Vice Dean of the Col ,eoe of Agriculture, University ot Arkansas.
 "There are several factors in fh,oncing the success of growing aats in Arkansas, any one of which ,nav @ determine in a large measure +be kind of crop one will raise, savs Dean Nelson.
 s'The first important thing to s+r;ve for is to do the seeding ear iv The season is soon at hand when oats may be seeded in some narts of the state and if blowing rremains to be done, it should be done immediately no matter what the location. Experience has prov on that fall blowing or early wir- ter blowing is better than spring nlowing. Before seeding, the soil should be worked into perfect con dition. The disc harrow should be used wherever necessary and the

ten years, with seeding oats at diff 1erent dates one week apart be- ginning as early as possible and cov- ering period of about two months each season. The earliest seeding IS, as a rule, the best or as good as any other, and after the first two, or sometimes three, seedlings. the yield falls off very rapidly. The late seeding usually brings a thin stand, shorter growths, late matur- lty, and a light yield of chaffy grain.
 Do not use seed sparingly. Two bushels per acre is the standard rate for most states, and it is the least that should be considered for Arkansas. Experiments conducted Ill seeding at different rates show that ten to twelve pecks per acre bring the largest yields and most profitable returns. Even on the thinner soils there is less stooling and thickening of stands than on rich soil. consequently about as much seed is needed.
 "The variety will make a diff ference m the yield, one should know that he has variety that yields we'll or he should try to get better seed. Spring grown Red Rustproof oats are good. Fulghum is a desirable variety and Burt oats yield well consistently. In buying seed oats try to get seed that has been redeemed. If that Is not possible, run the seed thru some flaming mill or other cleaner. It is important that weed seed, cheat, broken straw and chaffy grains be thrown out before seed ing. Do not try to grow oats on wet lands. They will not thrive there.
 "To summarize, the important points are: Early seeding with grain drill, on a we'll prepared soil, using good variety and using good seed liberally."

 Furniture should, above all things, be comfortable and useful. There should be comfortable chairs for all members of the family, a table with a reading lamp and a few good books and magazines, book shelves, couch, a piano or a victrola and such things as all members of the family enjoy. All pieces of furniture in this room need not be of one style as long as they harmonize and look we'll to- gether.

LIVING ROOM AT HOME
 SHOULD BE UNABLE

Decoration of the living room of the home should have the most careful consideration because it is the general service room of the family is the opinion of Miss Jean Hill of the Department of Home Economies, University of Arkansas.
 ''The situation of the room, as we'll as it's size, has of course a great deal to do with the decora- tions. In fact it usually helps to determine the color scheme as much as the personal taste of the deco rator," says Miss Hill. 'If the room has a north and east exposure 1t is advisable to use the warm col ors in decoration. By warm colors, l mean those containing large amounts of red and yellow such as brown, tan, orange, rose and red violet that take the place of a good part of the sunlight that the room does not get.
 This does not mean that the creams and t2ns may not be suc- cessfully used in the warmer, sum- nier rooms of the house. In these rooms cream or tan walls are ac- ceptable, even more so, perhaps, than certain shades of green and blue, the cool colors. 1t is more satisfactory, however, to use cool colors here if they are not over done but used in the right pro- portion.

Styles in Suicide
 ThrOugh the Ages

It seems that there are fashions in suicide. The Journal of the Ameri- can Medical Association traces their history from the stone age when men sought death by jumping from cliffs or disappearing in the sea. The ancient Egyptians poisoned them selves with prussic acid extracted from peach kernels; the Italians of the Renaissance used weird combi- nations of arsenic.
 Shooting came with the cheapening of firearms, asphyxia with the use of gas for lighting. Carbolic acid was the favorite method when ev- cry household kept a bottle of this for fighting bedbugs. The death of a Georgia banker from an accidental dose of mercuric chloride set new fashion.
