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.

LOOKING WISE.
Di OC CASKET has two solemn eyes, inscrutable nre they;
i Doc Caski'tjlu'nves some pregnant sighs when he has naught
to my j he has the triek of looking wise, ami ho is rich today. 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.

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

school and among different members
of the household. ;
Change of Life '
I have a sister who a month ago
wont insane. Doctors say it is change
of life and that high, blood pressure
caused it. . (T. L. C.)
Answer. Neither of theso factors
causes insanity.. There is no such
thing as. change of life. High blood
pressure is, a symptom or effect of
various disease . conditions, . not
cause. . -

THE GHEATEST THING IX THE
WOULD f
by Laurel Gray
Whon the Gtovo II t, Keep It On
Wotta life! 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.
If a girl marries a man for sheer ro
mance's sake, look out for squalls.
A man' doesn't look" a bit romantic in
,a fuzzy bath robo and two days-
growth of board. (I have brothers.
I know 'em!) 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. Of course, to you,
my scholars, the reason is too easy.
Tho answer Is that thoy wero SUITED
to each other. And to be SUITED
means to loveatid. to be loved! '
