their history that they are capable OF
rsing to an occasion when rising As
needful
The state board of education has
tried, on its part, to do its fair share
of rising TO the occasion, by doing
three things; they have sst aside a
fund OF ten thousand dollars to help
in this work; they have created the
position Of supervisor Of rural schools
and they have put in it the very best
person they could find, Miss Rose Lu-
cia. Of Montpelier; and they have
planned program for improvements
arranged so that there is a clear, def
mite and simple method of obtaining
the state aid.
But state aid, like any sort Of help
from the outside, is a remarkably poor
stick TO lean on. and never gets any
BODY very far. What is needed Is a
renewal Of the sacred American feel
ing OF personal responsibility about
public affairs and our schools. After
all the very name district school"
means that il belongs to and should
be protected by the district where
Il stands. II we saw our district

Alkali In Soap
Bad For the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully,
If YOU want TO keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too mnch alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use Is
Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo (which
Is pure and greaselessl, and is better
than anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls of Mulslfied
will cleanse the hair and scalp thor
oughly. Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub il in. IL makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
which rinses out easily, removing every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruif and ex-
cessive oil The hair dries quickly and
evenly. and IL leaves the scalp soft, and
the hair fine and silky, bright. lustrous,
fluffy and easy to manage
You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil
shampoo at any pharmacy, its very
cheap. and few ounces will supply

months. Be sure your druggist gives

Gliding Officers

Albany, N. Y, Feb. l6.-One hundred
and sixteen New York state soldiers
took their own lives overseas during
the World war, statement issued to-
day by Adjutant General J. Leslie
Kincaid said One hundred Of the
suicides were enlisted men, and 10
were officers.
"While it is impossible at this late
date to assign a proper cause leading
to each individual suicide" said the
statement, "thhe officers particularly
were overcome with the feeling that
winning the war was an impossible
task and that. the worlds culture was
to be swept away by the triumph Of
German arms. Impulses Of more
personal character were evidenced in
the suicides of the enlisted personnel.
"To some the fear of death coming
upon them in some frightful unheard
Of form, was enough to destroy their
moral steadfastness, while to others
clairvoyant certainty that they We're
to work harm to those whom they
loved across the seas was u sufficient
cause to cause them to blot out their
lives"
Soldiers of German descent, the re-
port said, seem to lead other nation
alities in the figures, showing the ex-
tent Of suicides.

leap he. as a rule, sought relief on
charge from his pistol said the state
ment," "a coil of rope seemed to possess
an uncanny fascination for the enlisted
man after he had arrived at the con
clusion that his lot could no longer be

THREE CREAT-GR4ND-

Mrs. Bertha Perkins in o8th Year Has
Found Herself Suddenly En-
riched with Relatives.

Sabetha, Kan, Feb. l6.Mrs. Bertha
Perkins, who win be 98 years old
next April, found real thrill re-
Gently when three additional great
grandchildren arrived in three Sabetha
homes, within period Of As hours,
They brought the number of her de-
scendants up to 274.
Mrs. Perkins five generations of de-
scendants are divided as follows: 10
children, eight Of whom are living; rs

Mrs. Perkins was born in Virginia,

in Ohio. March l6, ls43. Her maiden
name was Bertha Mareum. In ls4s
they emigrated to Iowa, and in 1887
took homestead in this state--Nema-
ha county where she has lived since.
Mr.. Perkins died in 1893.
Good and old fashioned cooking"
is the recipe Mrs. Perkins gives for
her longevity. 1T is no wonder peo-
pie do not live 70 old age like they
used to, considering the rich foods they
put in their stomach nowadays. Peo-

II believe women should aid their
husbands in voting right, but do not
believe women should 60 into politics

Cooking courses in schools and col
leges run too much to fudge and fancy
dishes. I believe still, that the best
place for a girl TO learn housekeeping
and cooking is from her mother-but |
am in doubt whether some Of these
modern day mothers know much about
such things.

undernourished serves. As the nerves
ret all their noulishment from the
blood this means that the blood i
lacking in some Of the elements thal
are vital to the health of the nerves
There is no way of getting medicine q
nourishment to the nerves except
through the blood. Even opiatcs When
injected to deaden or quiet a nerve
reaches it through the blood stream
When the blood is thin and pale the
nerves are starved. When the blood Is
rich and red the nerves are well nour-
ished. The Importance Of building up
the blood to correct nervous troubles Is
also shown in actual experience.

When The nerves are starved be-

the nerves the elements they need to
