A Message to
Particular Women
of Washington
Use K0JENE
-.

II you will get from your drug
gist a six ounce bottle of Kojene,
which costs but go cents at Peoples
Drug Stores, and progressive drug
gists everywhere, you will learn
some very important truths about
feminine hygiene that will prove
a revelation to you.
Kojene is not poisonous-you can
drink it with safety, yet as an an.
tiseptic it is four times as power
full as Carbolic Acid and much more
powerful than bi-chloride of mer-
curry, both of which are a menace
to any home and should be ban
ished from it.
Money back if you don't say
Kojene is the most wonderful an
tiseptic in the world.

Vicksburg was incorporated January 29, 1925, but it was decided to wait until spring to celebrate the centennial.
 {, One of the pageants will portray the early struggles: of Spanish and French conquerors, another the fight ing between Union and Confederate armies, while others will show the country along the Mississippi river under four flags, French, Spanish, Confederate and United States.
 There was once on old Spanish for tress here called Fort Nogales, but it was almost forgotten when, about the 1912, MT.

WASHINGTON TO HAVE CONCRETE AUDITORIUM
 FOR UNUSUAL MUSIC

(P)-A single story structure where concerts featuring the unusual in mu- sic are to be given, is rising in the court yard of the famed Compression al Library. The rectangular build ing, the gift to Congress of Mrs. Frederic Churtliff Coolidge of Pitts field, Mass, will seat 511 persons. Herbert Putnam, librarian of Cong -ress, is of the opinion that the pro- grams from the auditorium will be broadcast by radio. Music now on the shelves of the Congressional Lii brary for reference purposes will be included in the programs. The con- ductor will have 100000 pieces from which to select
 The auditorium is being erected un- der the supervision of David Lynn, architect of the Capitol, from de- signs by Chas A. Platt of New York, consulting architect Mrs. Coolidge's original gift was $6O,000, but she add ed an additional $30,000 and provided an endowment of $25,O00 annually. Under her plan, prizes will be award ed for original compositions perform ed in public for the first time at con- certs given under the auspices of the Library of Congress.
 Mrs Coolidge set forth her concep- tion of the mission of the auditorium she presented in a letter, in which she said:
 II have wished to make possible through the Library of Congress. the composition and performance of mu. sic in ways which might otherwise be considered too unique or too ex pensive to be ordinarily undertaken Not this alone, of course, nor with a view to extravaganza for its own sake; but as an occasional possibili ty of giving precedence to considera tions of quality over those of quanti ty: to artistic rather than to econo mic values; and to opportunity rath CT than to experiment.
 For this reason, believe that ad vice should be sought from broad minded and disinterested musicians whether or not official-whether ol not professional. And, for the same reason, I hope that the audience may be chosen very largely from those whose musical taste and experience qualify them to listen sincerely ant appreciatively."

The money was to be loaned only on the security of hu- man nature, promise to pay with in 30 days, and its disbursement was entirely in the hands of Justice of the Peace c. c. Dalton.
 Y Prisoners brought before the judge were advanced sums ranging from $2 to s2O. The $500 was in due course drawn on heavily, but only one loan, for s2, has been repaid. Two other debtors came back and asked for more time, but all the others vanished quickly. The judge and the philanthropist, somewhat more cynical. have suspended dis bursements, at least temporarily.
 The advances were confined to prisoners released by the court or discharged after serving terms in the county jail.
