It is unnecessary for you to suffer with
eczema, blotches, ringworm, rashes and
similar skin troubles. A little zemo,
obtained at any drug store for 350, or
$1.00 for extra large bottle, and promptly
applied will usually give instant relief
from itching torture. It cleanses and
soothes the skin and heals quickly and
effectively most skin diseases.
Zemo Is a wonderful, penetrating, dis-
appearing liqld and is soothing to the
most delicate skin. It is not greasy, is
easily applied and costs little. Get it
today and save all further distress.

rTHE aun had halfway set when the
I messenger for whom Constance of
Brittany had watched all day rode
his Jaded horse into the courtyard.
Throwing the reins to a servant he
hastened into the presence of his mia-
tress.
He hsd hardly entered the door when
she exclaimed: “King Henry to dead!
Who la his successor, Richard or John?”
“Richard is now King of England, my
lady.”
“Thank God! He will be Just When
does he come to France?”
“They say he is expected in Rouen lo
a day or so.”
“As soon as the King comes to Rouen
we will seek him there. Mako the neces-
sary preparations for our journey, my
good Philippe."
And, for the first time since the death
of her husband, Geoffrey, son of Henry
II. of England, and Duke of Brittany,
Lady Constance felt that her young
son's future was secure.
The heir to the dukedom had been
born while the body of his father lay
awaiting burial in the castle chapel. The
lords of Brittany immediately acknow-
•edged him as their ruler, agreeing that
Constance should wield the sceptre dur-
ing hs minority.
While all went well in Brittany,
troublie was browing for the young duke
in England. His grandmother. Queen
Eleanor, refused to recognize him as the
heir of her son, Geoffrey.
Then King Henry died and Richard
reigned In his stead. Constance, remem-
bering his deep love for hla brother,
hoped that he would acknowledge Ar-
thur as an heir to the throne of Eng-
land.
Thus matters stood on the summer
morning when the Duchess of Brittany,
her son, Arthur, and their attendants
started for Rouen.
For days they rode, and upon reaching
their destination were escorted to the
capital stock, $2000.

The Students of the State Institute
for the Blind rendered an claborate
program at 7:30 o’clock last evening in
the chapel of the new Blind Institute
building. This program was given in
honor of George B- Fryer, a represent.

i tion to learn of th© methods used in

Richard placed his hand upon Arthur's

America has fallen short, so far, in
It food contracts with the Allies- An (
appeal from Herbert Hoover, Nation-
al food administrator, _ begins as fol-
lows:
“In response to many inquries I beg
to nay it is true that since the first
of December we have fallen far be-
hind our agreed food program with
the Allies- By the end of February
we will be short 45,000,000 bushels in
cereal products which we undertook
as our share of their supplies. We will
also be short of the amount of meat
and pork products that we are to de-
liver. The deficiency is due solely to
the railway congestion since that date.
The railway directorate since coming
into control on Jan. 1 has made effort
to find remedy blit during the month
of January the weather was insuper-
able and although progress has been
made since the 5th of February the sit-
uation is the accumulation of three
months' delays. The next sixty days
will be the most critical in our food
history. The simple fact is that the
problem goes far deeper than supplies
to the Allies. During the last three
months we have fallen far behind in
• movement of foodstuffs from the farms
to the consuming and storage centers.
Up to Feb. 1 less than 50 per cent of
the normal ratio of corn had been
moved, less than SO per cent of tho
oats and less than 60 per cent of the

with even a trifle more spirit, if possible. ’
Turning our thought naturally to the
Liberty Bell Joe Goodwin and Halsey
K. Mohr have woven a song around it
with a new note in its appeal—"Lib
erty Belt (It’s lime to Ring Again).”
A single bell note sounding out here
and there on an unexpected beat gives
a clever bit of by play. The number is
effectively sung by the Peerless Quar-
tet.
“There's a Service Flag Flying at
Our House" is another song suggestive
of sacrifice, yet it is full of lite and
energy, swinging along at a hustling
pace that carries your feet with it. It
is sung by the Shannon Four, which as-
sures a most pleasing rendition.
“Sweet Little Buttercup" is a sol-
dier's promise to come back when the
war is over, sung by Elizabeth Spencer
and the Shannon hour. It is a dainty
little song, and the diversity of effect
produced by the singers gives it irre-
sistible charm.
Another melody with a responsive
sentiment is "Homeward Bound”—a
lively number sung by the Peerless
Quartet. It has a serious undercur-
rent. reminding us of the boys in
France and of the day we all look for-
ward to, when they will come march-
ing back. The music, which is cheer-
fully American, takes the edge off the
seriousness.
“Lorraine (My. Beautiful Alsace-
Lorraine)." A vision of a French
grenadier as he sits by the campfire
and dreams of the happy days before
“All for France” became the watch-
word of his life. It has a tender inter-
est for Americans, bringing us a little
nearer to the soil of France. The song
is in dreamy waltz time, and is de-
lightfully rendered by Reinald Wer-
renrath.
"Chimes of Normandy" is a veritable
complement of “Lorraine.’’ paying, as
it does, loving tribute to the bells which
echo across the Norman orchards.
Some of the descendants of the hardy
Normans are fighting for France with
the British Army today : and more will
be with the American Army. This song
is voiced by Lambert Murphy with
beautiful effect.
Billy Murray gives a splendid mili-
tary number, "The Further it is from
Tipperary." The song points out that
Tipperary being in Ireland, the further
the boys in the trenches are away from
it, the nearer they are to Berlin. There
are snatches of melody here and there
from the old tune, but the music is
fresh and individual.
“I'm Going to Follow the Boys" is
a lively give-and-take duet between a
girl and a man. She wants to go
“over there" where all her dancing
partners are. It is effectively sung
by Elizabeth Spencer and Henry Burr
and has lots of swing.
Few more remarkable records have
been issued than "Fun in Flanders."
which give some genuine music from
the trenches—songs, jokes, mouth-
organs and all—presented just as such
entertainments are improvised for the
men in the Canadian lines. This num-
ber is attractively presented by Lieut.
Gitz-Rice and Henry Burr. The former
was appointed officer in charge of all
the musical entertainments within the
Canadian lines and gave free entertain-
ment to 70,000 troops a week.

Jascha Heifetz playe "La Copricieuse”
And such playing! You do not think
of a boy handling the violin—and he
is but a boy. yet already an acknowl-
edged master. Heifetz has the unmis-
takable touch of genius, and he has
graciously transferred it to this Victor
Record.
"i it alive?" asked a prominent mu-
sician on hearing "La Capricieuse"" at
the hands of Heifetz. Alive! just ex-
presses the feeling you have when
you hear him play this "‘morccau de
genre” by Edward Flgar. You think
of some exquisite living thing come
out of the nowhere, capricious and un-
certain, easily frightened, but tender
and loving, seeking that which is best
within you and drawing upon the most
delicate sensibilities in your own heart.
A charming Neapolitan song, “Pas-
torale," added to the Victor lists, is
presented by Giuseppe de I.uca, that
baritone whose artistry is always mani-
fest whether his work is a grand opera
air or a popular song. Here is one of
those distinctly Italian bits of melody
retaining the dominant characteristics of
the early days. In the long ago

noon In passing to engrossment or
third reading the Westbrook joint res-
olution providing for the rtificatio"

Realizing that Governor Hobby has
no intention of calling another extra
session of the Thirty-fifth Legislature,
the lawmkers have decided to rail-
road the Governor’s measures through
without any unnecessary delay ani
from present indications, at the pres-
ent pace, the calendar will be clear
of all of the tna^wurea presented bo
far within the next ten days. The de-
sire to rush teese measures through
was clearly shown by the action of the
House during the afternoon session,
when five of the bills recommended
•, the Governor were passed finally
under a suspension of the rules There
remain now only two measures bear-
ing upon the regulation of the liquor
traffic yet to be acted upon by the
House, these being the ten-mile zone
bill and the measure providing for
statutory prohibition.
Drastic Bootlogging Measures.
Four of the five meevaure passed by
the House have to do with liquor reg-
ulation and commercialize vice. Two
of the bills make it vu felony for any
person to procure for delivery of in-
toxicating Unuom to any person en-
gaged in the service of the United
States army forces, without firet ob-
taining a license. These are known
as the anti-bootlegging bills and the
violation of these measures is not con-
fined to any zone. The House amend-
ed one of these bills by exempting
drafted men who have not as yet been
enlisted into the service. The third
bill prohibits the sale of liquor to sol-
diers and the fourth is the anti-vice
bill. The House amended the measure
in several respects, among the amenc-
men to placed on this bill being on a
making the act apply to keepers of
disorderly houses and another apply-
ing the act to persons engaged in the
transportation of a soldier to a dis-
orderly house.
Loyalty Bill.
The fifth measure was the Gover-
nor’s loyalty bill and applies only dur-
ing the time of the war and provides
that any person using any language
which is disloyal to the United States,
“or ubusive in character arid calcu-
lated to bring disrepute to the United
StAtes, shall be guilty of a felony” and
the penalty is from one to twenty-five
years in the penitentiary. The bill on
this same subject has already received
a favorreble report in the Senate, but
is not expected to be reached for con-
sideration until early next week.
An agreement has been reached on
the ten-mile zone bill and this meas-
ure may be taken up some time today
or may go over until next week. The
statutory prohibition bill also is ready
for consideration, but them is no dis-
position to give it consideration until
these other regulatory measures are
finally dlaposed of by the lawmakers
Westbrook Resolution Engrossed.
Th® action of the Senate last after-
himself you can picture yourself car-
ried to the very heights of enthusiasm.
This is the effect likely to be pro-
duced by two Sousa compositions
among the present month’s offerings of
new Victor Records—"U. S. Artillery
March" and “Liberty Loan March.”
For years regarded as the musical
high priest of American military spirit,
Sousa has kept the flame alive even in
the long period when we refused to be-
lieve that a Ger-
man despot who
