CWAmd ImUatioot and Subititutei HE RESULT in South Dakota undoubtedly shows the way the political wind is blowinrr. Unless all siu'ns fail, Jlr.-MoAdoo will secure the democratic nomination, and President Uuolidge will be nominated by the republicans. ! - There will be considerable opposition in both camps, 'i The "Mur i)hy-Taj,'f;crt faction will fight McAdpo tooth and nail and tho John- son-LitFoHette faction will do their "durndest" to scuttle the Cool- iilge ship.' , But when the noise and, tumult is over, it is a pretty safe wager that tlio clcuiihi'ivoh features of Messers. Coolidge -and tyc A.doq will be phqtograplicd on tho campaign buttons. ; A clean cut contest bctwon these two candidates, howeycr, is not in the cards. There will be at least .ono third party and perhaps a fourth anil fifth. In fact, the campaign next year promises to bis the greatest political scramble in the history cf American polities. Henry Ford of course is the imponderable factor. lie can have; as many ttyird party nominations as lie desires, but docs lie -really desire any of them ? , ' Tlio latest report from Detroit says he does not. And yet no one seems to believe it. If the Ford boom continues to grow, thero is a pretty general impression that Ilenry will crank the band wagon and jump in. , , Well, thero will be some liu'inor in the campaign anyway, and in ilie Dresent' state of world affairs, humor is not to bo sneezed at. (Joolidgo, McAdoo and Ford! All clean shaven men and somewhat lean what a picture for the White House artist to paint I : It's really a pity they couldn't all be elected. We really need more than one president. Many years ago a triumvirate 'succeeded, for a time. It might 'do better now. Henry could run the Tailroads, W. 0. 51. the movies and labor unions, and Calvin could write'thc mes sages, t - . . A flippant way to treat a serious subject no doubt. But somo wny at tho present writing ft is impossible to take the present political sit uation seriously, one can only laugh at-it or swear. Personal Health Service i ' By WILLIAM BRADY, M.

Ho lias detractors here and tluu'c, ami drearily they drool; he hasn't learned a thing, they swear, xinee he emerged from sehool ; but little does Doe Casket on re; he smiles, serene nn,d eool. Ho has the trick of looking wise" upon his daily round; he's silent where less prudent guys fill all the nir with sound ; and if a patient lives or dies, the doe still looks profound. When I am well I view the doc with something like disdain; his air of majesty I mock and say it's all in vain; he hasn't got tho skill to knoek the cheapest sort of pain. Hut when I'm sick from heels to head, and full of earking fear, I say to those about my bed "Fetch old Doc Casket hero; I'll soon shake off this clammy dread when he is standing near." In time the good old. doc appears, he looks me o'er and sighst the Wisdom Of a million years seems brooding m his eyes; and I shake off my doubts and fears, he looks so beastly wise. Hchoot pupils now adays; L this makefe ao : much "homo-; work' necessary." Fresh nir In tho school room is con-' ceded by all author ities to bo an excel lent thing: for tho pupils. -:' The trouble with school room ventila tion; as it seems to me, is that tho of ficials ' whn dnffir- inlno what it shall be or how it shall bo provided are not nulto certain what fresh uir is or whether it is quite safo for young 'uns ' and 'teachers to breathe Anihiifulty is apparont in nearly every discussion of ventilation problems. ' Stripped of naHl-ScientIfic trim mlnps and tho forbidding atmosphere of mystery, ventilation means lotting sufficient air into and out of tho room. Tho simplest and most effic ient ventilation of a room is thru open windows. 'Ah, but that Implies a draft! Sure. Without a draft ven tilation is absolutely impossible. You must have a draft else breathe foul air. But just because it was formerly Imagined drafts brought pneumonia, dampness malaria, and night air con sumption, you don't havo to go on be lieving it. The simplest way to insure fresh nir in any school room having win dows is to fit tho windows with screens of unbleached muslin, full size of tho windows. This admits air and light yet excludes rain, snow, dust, wind, Insects and even drafts: School rooms thus equipped are easily kept at a comfortable temperature in. win ter without waste of fuel. - QUESTIONS AND AXSWEIIS Neuritis Hound the Heart ' Is neuritis round the heart danger ous? (Mrs. J. "W.) Answer.- No moro than in other situations. ' . ' , ' , ' ; it- . Cause of Iirh f Whal is the real cause 6t Itch? Aro there several kinds of itch? How does sulphur ointment operate to pro duce a cure? (Mrs. 8, .) Answer. Scabies, commonly called the itch, Is caused by a parasite, the itch mite, which can barely be seen with the naked eye. Tho mito burrows under the cuticle. Sulphur acts as f parasiticide (kills the parasites), pro vided a well made fresh ointment is used and sufficiently well rubbed Into the skin after a hot" soap and wator scrubbing prolonged to the limit of endurance. i Trachoma i. Kindly tell mo what trachoma Is. One of my girls has something like granulated eyelids. (B. G. W.) Answer. Trachoma is a contagious chronic, progressive eye Inflammation which seriously impairs' vision if not early recognized and vigorously treat ed. At one stag it resembles ordi nary "granulated" eyelids. It is widb ly prevalent in somo parts of ' the Bouth, including your section of Geor gia, IJ is commonly known as "red sore eyes."

Wotta life! If a girl marries a man for his brains she i suro.to be bored. Because a man who has 'cm In usually aware of om and h6 likes 'em pretty weH himself. If a girl' marries a man because ho is good looking, sho is sure to be the wretched prky of jealousy, even if sho has not a drop of jealous blood , in her dear little heart. Because good looking men are always ' per fectly aware of 'cm and. to boot, a compensating nature never allows cn any more brains than is good for 'cm.

And romance I bo dif ficult to keep in its place. Romance is a great deal like lemon meringue pio. The hour it is fresh from the oven a wedge of it Is divine. But, somehow, there is something about the third wedge, day after tomorrow, that is well you know! If a girl marries a man just for a meal ticket, sho earns it all from soup to nuts, from the very first morning's break fast to the cold luncheon' of potted chicken and' water wafers that aro served her after sho comes back from tho cemetery, having seen him laid away, in tho silent tomb, I know oceans of married women; brides of eighteen and comfortably rotund ma trons of fifty-nine. I will not take Oath, Your Worship, that I know one who is downright happy! But I will solemnly raise my right hand and swear, before a jury of my peel's, that the ones who are content and com fortable, and gay and chummy and haven't any creases between the eyes, are tho ones who will privately con fess they haven't the least notion in the world why they did marry Bill, or Jim or Oswald.
