Goes to Hospital to Learn
Beauty Aid

cSTHE first time I heard Of it, !"
j. writes Mrs. E. Whitney of IS
Parker Street, Bangor, Maine, "was
when I was at the Hospital. I was
very nervous and run down and
after my baby daughter was born
the doctor began giving me some
thing. In about ten days I felt like a
new person. Before then, I was
miserable. My skin was in very bad
condition and I could not understand
what made it clear up so quickly.
y Before I left I asked the House
Doctor what kind of medicine it was
that cleared up my skin and made
me feel SO much better. He said
my dear girl, didn't you ever hear
of Nujol? Hospitals aren't the only
place where you can get it! You can
buy it most everywherep ~
:s'I have been using Nujol ever
since, and I think it is wonderful.
That's the great thing about
Nujol. Not a medicine, contains no
drugs, can't possibly hurt you,
forms no habit-and if you are like
most other people its simple nat
ural way of bodily fabrication will
do wonders for you, too.

affection" Fifteen years before the
death of Edward Manchester, his
friend Richard O'Neill, fought with a
hold-up man on top of a speeding
freight train to save the hard-earned
money of Manchester When Lam
chester died he left his entire estate
of 1900 to O'Neill and directed in
his will that five-year search be
made for the beneficiary, whose where
abouts were unknown. Not so long ago
there died a merchant whose belief
in the observance of the Golden
Rule was revealed in the terms of his
will. Twenty pages in length, 1t con-
tanned legacies, some large and some
small, to every one who had ever been
nalita. 10 him or showed kindness to
others his presence. They included
bequesfS to a conductor who had
paid an old lady's fare; to a clerk
who carried home sick dog; to a
policeman who helped blind man
across the street. Bellhops were re-
membered for acts of courtesy: stage
comedians for having made people
laugh, and editors and judges for hav-
ing sponsored humanitarian cam
paigns.
"Where there's a will, there's way
Ito reveal the depths of human
meanness." Unfortunate, it is. but
true, and wills reveal more than one
unlovely example of carrying matri-
monial differences to the other side
of the grave. Some interesting exam
pies of these come from England
where lawmakers are seeking to make
vindictive will-making illegal.
Not long ago wealthy commercial
magnate, after deliberately leading
his wife to believe herself his sole
legatee, left her one shilling, and be-
queathed 100000 to others, including
q servant she disliked. Another man
left all his money to his wife, but
on condition that she should forfeit
$1,000 every time she appeared in pub
lie without a veil, while on remarriage
she was to forfeit all.
A Nottingham man who two years
ago bequeathed halfpenny to each
of his family just missed the record
in testamentary meanness, which be-
longs to the testator who left his
wife a farthing, with instructions that
the coin should be forwarded to her
in an unstamped envelope.
Then there was William barley of
Herts, England, who never forgave
his wife for having once taken some
money from his trousers pocket. In
his will he cut her off with shilling
"for picking my pocket of GO guineas."
When Charles Parker of England died,
the principal bequest in his will was
ITO Elizabeth Parker the sum of 200
whom, through my foolish fondness,
made my wife, without regard to fam
lily, fame or fortune; and who. in re-
turn, has not spared, most unjustly, to
accuse me of every crime regarding
human nature save highway robbery"
But England is not the only place
where post-mortem spite has been
shown. There was the citizen of Bos-
ton who left his wife penniless "un-
less she married again within five
years." because he wanted somebody

Politics Beyond Grave

Darling Gardiner, although a South
erner, was Republican and carried
his political fanaticism beyond the
grave. He left $4,000 to his two
brothers and two nephews provided
none of them has ever been knqwr
as Democrat, or suspected of votlps
for or supporting the nominees
that party" In case all of them we
Democrats or had ever leaned toward
that side of the fence, Gardiner direct
ed that his money should be used t.
endow Republican newspaper.

here. He left his small farm TO the
United States government because he
felt he owed his greatest debt OF graf
itude to his government for the priv
ilege of life, liberty. property and pur-
suit of happiness.
The will authorized the United
States Treasury department to use the
property as it deemed best.
There was a widespread feeling in
the county that the farm should go
to his half-sister Mrs. Snider. and her
husband with whom Jordan had lived
Congressman Nell G. Underwood OF
the Eleventh district took the matter
up and introduced joint resolution,
declining the gift. 1t was adopted at

meekness of the Englishman who left
all his estate to his wife trusting,

myself that she will marry no man.

trast also the consideration shown by
Gouverneur Morris, the New York

her remarriage, the income should be
doubled. Quite different was the at
