For today is Friday the 13th, the star Jonah combination of them all. That is, it you're superstitious. But if you’re inclined to scoff at tlio Friday jinx idea, here are a few arguments in your favor: Columbus' expedition which discovered America set sail on Friday and landed on Friday. Richard Henry Ix-e introduced the Declaration of Independence on a Friday. Cornwallis surrendered on Friday. And to argue against the 13 Superstition: There were 13 of original United States. There are 13 stripes in our flag, and, originally it contained 13 stars. President Wilson considered 13 as his lucky number —and ho was right about it — California’s 13 electoral < ollege votes re-elected him. As for Friday the 13th: Genera! Pershing was born on Friday the 13th. The Yanks won at St. Mihiel on Friday, Sept. 13, 1918. Where the Friday 13 idea came from is still in doubt. The most probable explanation is that the crucifixion gave rise to the Friday part, and the 13 part from tho fast that the Hebrew words for “death' and for "thirteen” wore identical. —o Free acts, etc. ELK’S CARNIVAL o MASONIC NOTICE Decatur chapter No. 112.

WOMEN AND MEDICINE In Europe, years ago, a woman named Hildegarde wrote a notable book on medicinal plants. Ju those days the men were too busy bothering about dogmas of religion and mod- [ iclne, and the study of herbs was. thought beneath their notice. It was the women, however, who | mostly conducted the hospitals and [ care for the sick, and thus they learn-1 cd much of great value. They let the men fight out the questions of theories, Lydia E.
