PORTUGUESE IN
CALIFORNIA TO
OBSERVE FEST
Give Thanks to Holy Ghost
For Saving Race From
Starvation.
BY DR.. GEORGE D. CRISSEY
United Press staff Correspondent

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal, May IT,
This Is the time Of the year when
a bit Of the old world seems to
leap the Atlantic and settle for a
brief spell in California.
From now until July or there
abouts the thousands Of Portu-
guese and Azorians in this state
will return thanks to the Holy
Ghost because many years ago he
interceded and saved a race from
starvation.
Sometimes the celebration IS
called that Of the Pentecost and
frequently it is referred to as a
pageant 10 the Holy Ghost, but
always the periods of festivity are
religious in nature, forming a bit
of Catholicism distinct 10 the
Portuguese people.
In the fertile valleys of California
there are many settlements Of Por-
tuguese, most of them being Azor-
ians. The celebrations always are
joyous occasions and are climaxed
by high mass in the local Catholic
church. A sermon in Portuguese
also is preached.
The story is that many years
ago the Portuguese were starving

Those who wish to learn all about
Koniola; those who would escape
from ills of the stomach, liver, kid
news and bowels or from rheuma-
tism, neuritis and nervousness, are
urged to call, without delay, on the
Konjola Man, who is at the Hook
Dependable Drug Store. Illinois and
Washington streets, Indianapolis.
There you will find out just how this
master medicine performs its SEEM
ing wonders; there you will hear OF
amazing cases wherein KonjOla
triumphed when all other medicines
and treatments failed utterly. The
Konjola Man will tell you how each
one of Konjola's 80 embarrassing
body-cleansing. health-glvlng ele-
ments go to the very source, the
cause of the disease and removes
the cause. And Konjola is not in
tended for mere temporary relief,
but to bring new. glorious and last
ing health. A typical example of
this medicine at work is shown by
the experience that Mrs. Margaret
Whittendorfer 1881 North Capitol
avenue. Indianapolis, had with Kon-
lola. Just a few days ago she said
to the Konjola Man:
Although I am 10 years old, Kon-
lola certainly worked wonders for
me. I did not think 1t possible for
any one medicine to go so quickly
to the causes of my ailments. For
the past three years I was the help
less victim of catarrh and stomach
trouble that refused to yield to any
medicine or treatment. An acid
stomach caused the food I ate to
ferment gases and bring on severe
aches and pains. Poisonous mucous
clogged my throat and made it hard
for me to breathe. During the night
my sleep was disturbed by this con-
ditlon and as a result 1 always felt
tired and WORKOUT. 1t was a dis
couraging situation for any one my
age and I had very little hope OF
being benefited.
Then I began reading and hear
Ing about Konjola. 1t seemed as
though half the people in Indian
apolis had been benefited through
its use. / thought that if it would
help others, surely it would do the
same for me. Then I decided to
give il a trial. That was the turn
Ing point. Konjola went right TO
work. The first bottle showed me
that I was on the right track; that
health was Just around the corner.
BY the time I completed the fourth
bottle felt like a different person.
The catarrh has been cleared up.
My head and throat are free Of the
mucous and my sleep is sound as a
baby's. Konjola restored my diges-
ton and increased my appetite. 1t
is hard for me to realize that was
ever in such a rundown and pitiful
condition. Konjola surely deserves
all the praise it receives
An unusual case. you ask? Not at
all-the files of this medicine are
filed to overflowing with the glad
statements of men and women who
found their first relief through its
use.

Decree Rules for Care
 of Churches in Mexico

Mexico City, July 12 P)-The Mexican treasury department has issued a list of regulations for the care of the Roman Catholic churches in Mexico, containing some sections considered as rather strin- gent. In the preamble the churches are referred to as the property of the nation, for the pre- servation of which the priests are regarded as responsible.
 The regulations specify tho churches to be considered in the same category with other public buildings and the treasury and in- terior departments are to have supervision of their care. Repairs may be made at the expense of the church but cannot be carried out except by government permission.
 The provision that the churches are national property has been one of the chief bones of contention in the Mexican church state contro- versy, a phase of which was set tied recently.

 The arrest of the three was said to have resulted from information given to the auth critics by the Raj ney girls mother.
 Mrs. Rainey said Mrs. K. Schaper and Cecil appeared at her home within an hour after the robbery carrying two blankets. Officers were inclined to believe the money was hidden in them.

Expressing Marital BLESSINGS
DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
/. When congratulating a bride
and bridegroom at a wedding re-
ception, what should one say to
each?
Q. Is it improper for a young
man to wear street clothes when
the girl dresses formally? He in

The fundamental thing to re-
member is that Best wishes for
your happiness" or Every good
wish for your happiness" is always
correct to say to the bride. and
"Congra tulations" is always cor
rect for the groom. What we add
to these phrases depends on the
degree of friendship that we have
with each.

THE BEAUTY

BY Helen FOllett-

How cucumber juice ever got its
reputation as a beautifier we don't
know. Peel a cucumber and you
will find a horrid brown deposit
on your hands. We wonder how
that yarn about rubbing gold
wedding ring on a stye ever got
started? A stye is a small boil;
like a boil it must gather pus to
the bursting point, after which
the infection is expelled and the
wound heals. They used to cut
hair when the moon was new.
That's another funny one.
The dumbbell type Is the one
who uses makeup to excess. She
makes a mistake. Factory bushes
and thick calcimine show up the
lack of facial expression. They
transform the vacant Countenance
into a mask. The girl who can
get away with a lot Of makeup,
is one of changing expressions
due to the workings Of a mind that
is full of kilowatts. The faded
beauty must beware OF too much
war paint, which is likely to call
attention to the devastation of
the years.

lish this morning an open letter
cent me by Demonstrated Boy
for the benefit of young woman
whose letter appeared recently In
this column:
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
"This letter is written to your
correspondent who signed her
letter, 'Old-Fa shioned Girl You
are just the kind of girl have
been looking for, and still am.
You are just the kind of girl l
would like to meet-one who
loves to keep house. cook and
sew, and who enjoys good times
and good movies.
II wish there was an oppor-
tunity to meet you or correspond
with you, Old-Fashicned Girl, so
,. we could exchange ideas.
''DOMESTICATED BOY"
At least, Demonstrated Boy, you
and Old-Fashioned Girl can ex-
change ideas through this column.
Every girl is interested in know
ing the kind of girls boys prefer,
and young men, in stating their
preferences and the reasons, may
have a great and helpful influ-
ence in shaping the ideals Of
Miss 1880.
1t occurs to me that the term
"old-fashioned," as used by mod
ern young men, is a little mis-
leading, giving the impression OF
a. young lady who is not up-to-
date in dress or ideas-not in
touch with the times. AS
understand Domesticated Boy and
many others who have written
me, what they mean by "old-
fashioned" Is a wholesome girl,
who loves home-making, includ-
ing all the arts that go to make
home an ideal place, such as
cooking, housekeeping and sew
ing, a girl who looks forward to
having a husband, home and
babies of her own one day.
This girl may be and should
be quite up to the new fashions
in dress and general appearance.
She may wear her skirts about
the fashionable length; her hair,
nas other girls are wearing theirs.
But she does not dress Conspic-
uously, or just for the purpose of
attracting attention to herself,
because she is a girl Of modesty
