To the Birdman

"Thou scorner of the ground"
So said a poet of a bird
That skinned the blue along,
Up, up, up, beyond all sight,
And left him but a song.
Thou scorner of the ground!

Whom fear cannot ensnare,-
Just as a bird, you fearless fly,
So cool, so debonalr.
Columbus, like you, sail
Uncharted seas of wind and
storm,
"Sail on and on" you cry,
"To worlds of usefulness and
gain
Dominion of the sky"
Like he of Lion-Heart,
You dare the perils of the great
unknown;
On cunning wings, man.

Armored in your faith, you 60

Fiends Who Sent Bomb
To Farmer Are Sought

Lineville, Ia, July 26.-Fedcral
officers are tracking fiends who sent
a bomb to J. M. Hooker, farmer
south of this place.
The bomb came in a pasteboard
box and was sent through the mails.
The bomb was in the shape of a
tin can with a screw top. The can
was filled with black gunpowder. A
piece of sandpaper was attacked to
the upper inside end of the can and
a match to the cover.
Unscrewing the top or cap would
have set off the match which would
have exploded the gunpowder.
Mrs. Hooker was not at home
when the package arrived. Mrs.
Hooker unwrapped it and tried to
unscrew the lid of the can. Not be-
ing successful she called Isaac Cas-
tro, a neighbor, who inserted a
screw driver under the edge Of the
lid and lifted it off.

Want to Keep Your
Hair Perpetually Curly9

Perpetually wavy or curly hair is now
within the means Of every woman to pos
sess. One need only get a few ounces of
plain liquid silmerine from the druggist
and apply little of it occasionally with
q clean tooth brush before doing up the
hair. When this dries the most beautiful
and natural looking waves and creases i'm
aginable are in evidence. Wind and heat
do not affect the curliness as where a
heated iron has been used.
Liquid silmerine is so pure and harm
less there is not the slightest danger of
spotting the scalp or streaking the hair,
and it leaves no sticky or greasy trace.
1t will also be appreciated as beneficial
dressing. as it keeps the hair so soft.
