Mr.. Mahony will follow a course

will go to Munich for a course al

will go to London to look over
other schools. incidentally, he will
enjoy a fine vacation after seven

When he returns it is possible
that he will completely reorganize

we know so well and see so close,

Morris, who was a friend Of

in London, a firm for designing
and manufacturing artistic fur
niture and household decorations.
He took up the manufacture of
tapestry and other textiles, dye
ing, book illumination and print
ing.
He founded the famous Kelmscott
Press at Hammersmith. He de-
voted himself to the advance
ment of the lesser arts, teaching
the doctrine that all things should
be made beautiful. Morris prob

but never phlegmatic. She is
keen on art today. Look at the
craze for the Egyptian. By the
way, Mr.. Mahony says that this
amazing furore for King Tut and
the art of his day will have far
reaching effects. Already, 1t has
influenced dress design.

Beauty Spoilers

with all the wonderfully pretty
things to wear many a girl is dis

fright. But here's the way to Danish
those pimples. Ask any druggist
for a so cent box OF Stuart's Cal
cium Waters and follow directions.
Their first action In to remove
the sour lamentations that are apt
to poison the blood and thus dis
figure the skin. The effect is visibly
noticeable to those troubled with a
pimply skin. or one that Is muddy
or red or blotchy. scaly and rough
and coarse. The Calcium Waters
induce a reaction to healthier tenden-
cies and soon the pinkish complexion
begins to assert itself. the blemishes
fade away. the dimples seem ami
mated and the entire appearance is
one Of vivacious beauty instead of
unsightliness.

international pste Line.

The international date line, at or
near the one-hrndred sightieth merld-
ian, is the imaginary line ut which
dates change, being ma de later by one
day west and earlier by one day by
those crossing from west to east. The
line is somewhat irregular in order
to separate the Islands of the Pacific
In such way that those lying to the
east of II carry the same date as the
United States, while those to the west
of II carry the same date as Japan
and Australia. 1t is employed in order
to avoid confusion of dates which
would necessarily result from gain of
one day on the one side and loss of a
day on the other in travelling around
the globe. The dates in use upon most
of the Pacific islands are those which
resulted from the dates carried by the
first European and American cOlonists,
these dates differing as the colonists
came from the east or west.
