If this be true we are glad that we do not have a girl liv ing in a college town. Imagine what chance we would I have with a fellow who is forunute enough to have a pair of pretty pink corduroy pants. If it is true tljat the trousers are to be -worn and that some of the college element really rdorn tiiein, then we are perplexed rs to how far they will go before they stop ci f ringing on the womens colors.

And so it was. The death of Lodge, no less than that of Wilson, can be traced back to that strug gle of 1919, which sapped not only the mental but the physical vigor of the two chief contenders. Lodge defeated our entry into the League But he was a sick man e cr < * * * The lines of these two lives first crossed because of the'r mutual in terests as scholars and historians. Lodge was editor of the Inter national Review, back in the 70's, when he accepted for publication a political treatise by Woodiow Wilson, then a student at Prince ton. Wilson recalled this 1 o Lodge at his first meeting with the senator following his election as president, declaring that he always remem bered Lodge as the editor who pub lished his first article. The last meeting between the two was at noon on March 4, 1921. just a few minutes before Presi dent Harding took the oath as chief executive. Wilson, crippled in body, na,d‘ been assisted to the president’s room in the Senaate wing of the capitol ,to sign last-n. inute meas-j ures rushed through the dying | Congress.

J.) fire, at its height. More than 1500 families were made homeless, it is estimated, when a dozen tenement houses were de -1 stroyed. Three large factories also i were razed. Firemen from Jersey I City, Hoboken and New York .fought the flames for several hours i before the conflagration finally brought under control. breathless pause, after Lodge had spoken. i Wilson, his face drawn by his long illness, his cane at his side, seemed at first oblivious of the presence of the Senate leader. He was still fighting the pressure of that blood clot on the biain. Then, slowly, with mental self control that he was not able (o impart to his paralyzed muscles, he turned. Except for hi s eyes, l.is face was coldly exp.essiomess. But when he spoke the sharpness i of his tone was like icy steel down one’s spine: “I have no further communica tions to make,’ ? he said. “I ap preciate your courtesy Good morn ing.” | ** * 1 And now Lodge, too, is dead—of a blood clot on the bra n! NEW METHOD HEALS PYORRHEA Ten Year Bad Case Completely Healed in a Short Time Writes Florida Woman Faced with the loss of her teeth, after 10 years suffering, Mrs. M. J. Travis, an esteemed resident of Jacksonville, declares she finally saved her teeth bv a simple home treatment: “worth its weight in gold,” using her own words: “Af ter having pyorrhea for 10 years my mouth is now healed. Before I found out differently,. I was told there was no relief and had yielded to the loss of six fine Solid teeth. Then I discovered Moores pyor-» rhea treatment. Three days after starting its use, the soreness left my .gums; my teeth began to tighten. Now n.y teeth are clean, my breath sweet, and my mouth completely healed.” The experience of Mrs. Travis is dupulicated in hundreds of other cases. If you have pyorrhea—or threatened with pyorrhea your teeth are in danger. Quick and effective! treatment is necessary. You can test, without money risk, the treat ment used by Mrs. Travis. Simply write the Moreham Co., 399 Gate way Station, Kansas City, Mo. Un der their guarantee of refund send two dollars. Or, pay postman the $2 and few cents postage. Use the treatment 7 days. Then if you are not wholly satisfied, write to that effect and your $2 will be returned at once. (adv) II Substitutes are gener ally more expensive in the end than genuine articles. Housewives have learned they KNOW this is true j where bakings are con- cerned. , Self rising flours are classed as substitutes for plain flour and good baking powder. The ggdtt use of these special mixtures is very liable to result in false econ omy, failures and waste on bake day. Remember there is a big difference, in many ways, between biscuits and other bakingsmade from these sq-called self-rising flours and those made from good plain flour and a de pendable leavener. Try 1 the experiment—make a baking from each — convince yourself. You will find the baking made from flour and baking powder far more attractive in appearance. It will raise higher— retain its full food value and taste better. For best results, do not fail to use Calu met, the Economy Baking Powder, and a reliable brand of plain flour. Just think of it —the sale of Calumet is 2 x /z times those of any other brand. It contains only such ingredients as have been officially approved by the United States Food Authorities. It is pure and sure. You save when you buy it—you save when you use it PACKED IN TIN < -KEEPS STRENGTH IN <■—i wmrib i L" (ttssifMfflisffin IT.
