We are thankful that Washington

degrading, iron-handed methods of

I am glad that the public in general
have their interest conferred on our
penal institutions, and that they have
enlarged the educational and vocation
al training facilities with competent
instructors, our penal population will
cease to be just ainless wards as they
are termed, and will become industri-
Gus ambitious students.
I think it would be splendid if those
misspent lives could be turned into
something worthwhile.
If every one who committed GRIM
inal offense were in penal institution
there would be few taxpayers left to
support them.

Mrs. v. o. Kern received word this
week of the death of her aunt, Mrs.
Elizabeth Swartwood Hittell, at Engle-
wood, Colorado. Mrs. Hittell will be
remembered by White Bluffs residents
who met her when she visited her
brother, the late H. S. Swartwood, here,
for several months, shortly before his
death.
The story of Mrs. Hittell's life is
typical saga of the American pioneer.
She was born in the state of New York
in 1851 and in 1876 was married to
DR.. B. F. Hittell, practicing physi-
clan of Allentown, Pa. The lure of the
west brought them to Newton, Kansas,
in 1880, and on to Colorado in COW
cred wagon in 1885.
They located at Colorado Springs
but the next year they moved to Dem
yer, and for many years in that city
took an active part in real estate i'm
provement and other business enter
prises.
DR.. Hittell died in 1910 and the
widow continued the business there for
fifteen years alone, retiring to private
life in 1925.
Besides Mrs. Kern, surviving rela-
tives include another niece, Mrs. c..
r. Moore of Shelton, Washington, and
a nephew, H. E. Swartwood of Engle-
wood.

For Dangerous Coughs

have prescribed creosote in some
form for coughs, colds and bron-
chitis, knowing how dangerous it is
to let them hang on.
Circumcision with creosote and six
other highly important medicinal
elements, quickly and effectively
stop all coughs and colds that other
wise might lead to serious trouble.
Creomulsion is powerful in the
treatment of all colds and coughs,
yet is absolutely harmless and is
pleasant and easy to take.
Your own druggist guarantees
Circumcision by refunding your
money if you are not relieved after
taking Creomulsion as directed. Be-
ware the cough or cold that hangs
on. Always keep Creomulsion on
hand for instant use.-Advertise-

be formal, these skirts go to great
lengths, touching the floor, and even
