PILOTS OF LIBERTY. Flawless his heart and tempered to the core Who. beckoned by the forward leaning wave, First left behind him the firm footed shore. And, urged by every nerve of sail and oar. Steered for the unknown which gods to mortals gave; High hearted surely he; But bolder they who first off-cast Their moorings from the habitable past And ventured chartless on the sea Of storm engendering liberty, For all earth's width of waters is a span. And their convulsed existence mere repose, Matched with the unstable heart , of man. Shoreless in wants, mist girt in all it knows, Open to every wind of sect or clan, And sudden passionate In ebbs and flows. James Russell Lowell. 80CIAL EVENT8 FOR THE WEEK. .

These women are all objects for sympathy rather than criticism. Early neglect in the care of the scalp has caused the loss of much hair that their personal appearance is sadly marred. To correct this defect they resort to artificial hair. Most ladies would resent any imputation of personal carelessness and neglect. And yet very many women permit their natural hair to become eo dull, brittle and lusterless that it looks no better than the artificial. All this is as unfortunate as it is unnecessary. Hair that is unsightly or thin may usually be attributed to the malevolent activity of the dandruff germ. This vicious germ burrows down Into the hair follicle, shortly destroying its life. The hair becomes dead, loose and finally drops out. There is a remedy sold by all druggists, the intelligent use of which will kill the dandruff germ. It also cleanses the scalp of all accumulations and makes the hair shine with the luster of life and beauty. That remedy is Newbro's Herplcide, the Original Dandruff Germ Destroy er. This preparation in one dollar size bottles is sold and guaranteed everywhere. ' Applications may be obtained at the best barber shops and hair dressing parlors. The Herplcide Co., Dept. R., Detroit, Mich., wil send a nice sample and booklet to any address upon receipt of 104 In postage or silver. A. O. Luken and Co Special Aients.

A number of students who expect to enter Earlham College for the fall term will arrive In the city Monday as registration at the school will be held on this day. SUPERSTITIONS AND CUSTOMS October and November promise to be busy months for prospective brides as a number of weddings have been scheduled for these months. Every nation appears to have had its own assortment of bridal beliefs and superstitions, and if full investigation were made it might readily develop, that all the present customs, down to the dresses worn, flowers carried, etc., were derived from these beliefs. The Greeks believed that if a crow was seen any time during the wed ding feast, which was always celebrated in the open, divorce would re

sult unless all the women present arose and with one accord cried "Go away crow." .Thus the white dove by its antithesis to the raven came to be the bird of nuptials. A queer idea existing in some sections of the country is that no widow or widower must be permitted at the bridal festival unless there also be present an old maid or bachelor to counteract the ill influence of the former. The belief appears to be common in England and America that a bride who chances to eat pickles at the brid al meal is doomed to unrequited love. How and when these queer beliefs and superstitions originated is study of limited complexities, yet authorities have been able so far as

many of the common, American su perstitions are concerned to trace them to the place or districts where they appear to have originated, since they are the most in vogue. For instance "three times a bride"3 maid never a bride," is ascribed to New England. "If you try on your wedding gown before the ceremony you will never be happy," came from Massachusetts. From Alabama came the saying that it is bad luck for the bride to keep any of the pins used in her bridal gown. Of course it is known that from the United States has come the remark that if you lose your wedding ring you will never, never be happy. The old couplet, Marry in Lent, Live in Repent, is said to have originated in New York. "Happy .the bride the sun shines on" comes from Northern Ohio. The other day some one remarked that they had heard that the bride and groom should stand in line with the cracks of the floor and never at right angles to them. Double weddings are considered by many as unfortunate and especially i3 this true in Massachusetts. Then for the merry-maker who ex pects to poke fun at the bride and groom. Be sure ana aon t iorgei 10 tie the bride's trunk with white rib bon as this is considered very lucky. Be advised however that to get the trunks mixed and affix such an em bellishment to the baggage of the groom will court disaster especially if he does not have a sweet disposition. I wonder how manjr, brides know that the truly color for the traveling gown is gray. Brown isn t so bad, but gray is the thing worth the bride's hap piness. If the bride kiss a. baby who hap pens to be at the wedding celebration happiness will be her's for the rest of her days. There are a number of other cus toms too numerous to mention. WRITES LITTLE PLAY. Mrs. E. B. Grosvenor, a member of the Richmond, Indiana chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution has contributed to the pages of the September number of "The American Monthly Magazine," the official organ of the National society, a charming little playlet entitled "The Betrothal," a Revolutionary comedy in one act. Quoting from the magazine it reads: "The play, 'The Betrothal,' which appears on another page, was written by Mrs. Abbie Johnston Grosvenor of Richmond, Indiana. While it was still in manuscript, it was pre sented before a grade school, a college fraternity.a home party, a Woman's club, and before the D. A. R. It has been asked for by different chapters. It may be interesting to know thPt it is based on fact. Mrs. Grosvenor has been identified with the literary interests of Richmond for some time and many are the stories that have emanated from her gifted pen, but tier venture into the field of play-writing is a new departure and a delightful one. FOR BRIDE-ELECT. A decidedly attractive feature of this week's social schedule was the miscellaneous shower which Mrs. George Shirk and Miss Blanche Risk gave Thursday afternoon at the home of the latter on South Fourteenth street in honor of Miss Hallie Keesling, a bride-elect. The house was prettily arranged for the occasion and the party was one of the most enjoyable of the recent social affairs. Hearts composed the amusement of the afternoon, the favor being given to Miss Lena Stretch. After the card games, the guests FEARFUL BURNING ITCH WAS CURED By Cuticura Soap and Ointment. Another Man Had Itching on Scalp. Hair Fell Out, Leaving Ba!d Spots. Now Hair Has Grown, Thanks to Cuticura Soap and Ointment. 'I dm it my duty to .tell about a cure that the Cuticura Soap and Ointment have made on myself. My trouble began in splotches breaking out right in the edge of my hair on the forehead, and spread over the front part of the top of my bead from ear to ear, and over my ears which caused a most fearful burning itch, or eczema. For three years I had this terrible breaking out on my forehead and scalp. I tried our family doctor and he failed to euro it. Then I tried the Cuticura Soap and Ointment and used them for two months with, the result of a complete cure. Cuticura Soap and Ointment should have the credit due, and I have adrLd a lot of people to use them." (Signed) C. D. Thartuigton, Creek, N. C Jan. 6. 1011. " I will say that I have been suffering with an Itching on my scalp far the part few years. My hair fell out is spots all over my head. My scalp started to trouble me with sores, then the sores healed up. and crusts formed on the top. Then the hair fell out and left me three bald spots the shape of a half dollar. I went to more than one doctor, butotiiJ not get any relief, so 1 started to use the Cuticura Eemedies. I tried one bar of Cuticura Soap and some Cuticura Ointment, and felt relieved right away. Now the bald spots have disappeared, and my hair has grown, thanks to the Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I highly recommend the Cuticura Remedies to all that arc suffering frith scalp trouble." (Siraed) Samuel Stern, 236 Floyd St.. Brooklyn, X. Y.. Feb. 7. 1911.

were conducted to the dining room, where Miss Keesling's gifts were displayed at her place at the table. The appointments were attractive and appropriate. Festoons of hearts wrere suspended from the chandelier to the four corners of the table. In the center of which reposed a French basket filled with pink and white cosmos. Pink and white lighted candles added to the charming effect. Cream, cake, coffee and mints were served. The bride-elect's gifts were numerous and beautiful, handsome pieces of china, cut glass, linen and aluminum being included in the list. Those invited were Mesdames Walter Salmon, Ray Pavis, Frank Michael, H. B. Mutton, Lawrence dift, Ora Morris, Byron Bouslog, C. A. Neal, Misses . Louvenio Lander, Dorothy Browne, Viva Campbell, Lillian and Edna Carson, Lenna Stretch, Ruth Barnard, Jean Elliott and Mary and Iraogene Smith.

No admission fee will be charged, but a small silver offering will be collected for the benefit of the St. Agnes Guild, under whose auspices the talk will be given. The Guild will serve refreshments at the conchtsion of the lecture. FADS AND FASHIONS NEW YORK, Sept. 23. Quite lately the makers of fashion have made efforts to bring back into favor the twopiece costume, but judging from the advanced .fall costumes recently imported it would seem that they have not been particularly successful. With the high Empire skirts so little material is consumed in the making of the waist that women demand the bodice be dade of the same materia as the skirt. If not, they are willing to accept some pretty soft fabric that exactly matches the skirt in color. Even with coat suits the coming season will see blouses matching the color of the cloth used in the suit. The short, straight skirt, high waist line and loose blouse with a slightly' low-cut neck, although not new In design, will be worn all winter. The newest models are trimmed with lace embriidery, braid and butttons in ways that give them quite" a distinctive touch. Heavy silk cord outlines the joining point of bodice and skirt and is fastened on the side with a twisted loop, long, tassled ends fall almost to the hem of the skirt. The slightly low neck is finished with a pleated collar of handkerchief linen edged with Cluny or a fine Valenciennes lace. There is a cravat of silk tied in a flat bow or four-in-hand having two narrow ends hanging to the waist line and weighted with silk tassels. Beneath the three-quarter sleeve is a four-inch undersleeve of net. Such a frock can be made of satin, silk, serge, worsted or one of the soft cashmeres that will be much worn during the fall. The Money Saving Store

Sladmii ItfDine QJJ

Helping with the home expenses, aiding in the family income, is a comparatively easy matter if the HuosierV policy of economy is followed up. With us, first, last and always is economy saving on dry goods, clothing, shoes, chinaware, house furnishings, constantly striving to give people goods at less than the market price. To do this is no easy matter. One has to be constantly on the watch, always hunting the best market. Anyone can buy high priced goods for they can be had on all sales, but the same goods at 25 to 33 1-3 per cent less is the Hoosier Idea, and on this policy we have built this business. We have, come to be Richmond's department store. The saving for this week on many lines will be big.

HOLLAND HAS LOST A GREAT ARTIST '

Josef Israels Was One of His Country, and of To Be Saved BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. A great artist has recently died in Holland. ! His name was Josef. Israels. I Israels was one of the greatest ar tists not only of his country but of his day, and his day was a long one, for

I he was born in 1824. He saw schools iof painting rise and fall, saw the lus-lfor

tre of brilliant names dimmed, saw the unappreciated come into their own, saw the mediocre talent masquerading as genius under the fostering wing of officialdom dragged in the dust; saw artistic hypocrisy exposed; lived through political revolutions; and to see himself become famous in a new world after distinction was his on his own continent. The Columbian Exposition intro duced Israels to the general American f

public. j vantage upon me wan 01 iame man The World's Fair did more, perhaps, j Israe,sfor what is sometimes atrociously call-1 Here was an artist, who, having a ed "art culture" in this country than 'clear vision of the fatuity of his artisany other one thing. It was a medium 1 tie product, elected to throw aside the through which every section of the J conventions of the schools, to cast beUnited States was reached. hind him his artistic traditions, to eliCertain pictures were made famous j minate the class of subject upon there notably "Breaking Home Ties," which he had made his reputation and which while not loved of the artists! to deliberately adopt a new method because of its "story telling" quality, applied to the selection of the simple

a quality derided by the supposedly elect, was nonetheless an excellent picture from the standpoint of its expression. But its instantaneous leap into national conspicuity lay in the universal appeal of its subject. Artists of a certain calibre always sneer at the "story-telling" picture. But, after all, why is it not as legitimate a medium through which to show the world the superlative technique of the art of painting as the landscape or the portrait. What are the most celebrated canvases of all time but story telling pictures. What, to be concrete, is Rembrandt's famous, "Lesson in Anatomy," but this. What is Leonardo's "Last Supper' but a narrative in paint. What, among the moderns, is one of the most exquisite examples of the tale told through brush and canvas Abbey's presentation of the Holy Grail to be found on the walls of the Boston Public Library. The story telling picture cannot be laughed down. To return to Israels. Israels was a Jew. Stop and think sometimes what the world of art owes to the Jew. To the Greek, much. To the Jew more. For the masterpieces of literary, pictorial, the p lastic and the musical arts have had their inspiration, direct or indirect, from the admittedly one greatest book of all time, the Bible that record of Jewish history and legend. Michael Angelo's majestic figure of Moses, the exquisite sculpture of David, the "Last Supper"" of Da Vinci, Handel's "Messiah" you run them off your lingers. Famou statesmen, great financiers, great publicists and humanitarians among the most brilliant names are those of the "despised people." rm Corner 6th

the Greatest Painters of His Day Trees Are by Friends.

What has been one of the most enduring of modern fictional creations "Ben-Hur," which is now ranked as ; an American classic. And what has ) been one of the wonderful and almost ' inexplicable dramatic successes one j which has continued uninterruptedly jits hold upon the theater-going public! many years the dramatization of this novel. , ' Who wrote one of the most com-1 pelling of modorn plays- "The Melt- i ing Pot" Israel ZangwilL a Jew. These are futile examples taken atj random every student of history, lit-! erature and art will be thronged with i ! the star-like galaxy of Jewish names, I j Jewish themes, Jewish origins which' present themselves. (. And none who bangs to more ad-j life about him, and to do this at the risk of loss of reputation. This is the superman in Israel. In this is recognized that genius which soars above every human shackle. His art was evolutionized from a certain tightness of execution and banality of subject into the interpretation of the more primal aspects of the life about him expressed in flowing nuances of light and color, and in seeming to lapse into provincialism he attained universality. Some of Israel's best pictures are in this country, two of which "The Bashful Suitor," and "Expectation," are in the Metropolitan Museum in New York. "Among the Trees Again" the title by the way ot a charming volume of verse by Evaleen Stein, a lyric poet of this state, resident in Lafayette, whose poetic product has given her a position as one of the first of our contemporaneous American writers of verse. Yesterday at the sessions of the Indiana Yearly Meeting in East Main Street Friends church, when Earlham was up for consideration, the treees lining and decorating the campus were the subject of extended remark,' many persons both directly and indirectly interested in this institution expressing themselves with much emphasis on the necessity of the preservation of Earlham's decorative aspects. It was stated that the row of trees to the possible destruction of which this column referred a short time ago, would remain undisturbed, since the traction line was to be taken to the middle of the road and the construction of cement curb and sidewalk flire &.

t would not be permitted in any wtasj f to damage the trees, i This is good new. The Society of Friends has always ; been the enemy of destruction in every .

form. Conservation ot morals has alS ways been its precept and practice ! and if applied with as much rigidity to the landscape, the latter should re-' i main intact. TO REGISTER AT COLLEGE. All pupils who expect to enter the music department at Earlham college this year are urged to register aa soon sfc possible. Miss Gaston, head -of this department has returned and is anxious to begin the classes as soon as possible. It is requested that , day students be especially prompt In. registering. Miss Hecker and Mr. Aurele BorrUs have returned. Mr. Borriss will meet his pupils Monday morning in the Starr Piano parlors. CHOIR REORGANIZED. . , The choir of the St. Paul's Eplsco-j pal church will be reorganized at ttaej regular rehearsal this week, under the! direction of Miss Laura Gaston. VESPER SERVICE. Vesper services will be held this tening at four thirty o'clock at 4hej First English Lutheran church, Thej new order of vesper service will bej used at this time.

TO SING ANTHEM. v As announced yesterday the choir of the First Presbyterian church will1 sing an anthem at this morning service written by Mr. S. A. Thompson and dedicated to the Rev. Thomas Graham pastor of the church. The ves-t per service will be held this evening, at five o'clock. A cordial invitation Is extended all to aatend. How to Make a Real Wrinkle Remover (From the Fashion Reporter) , In these days of cleverly advertised "beautificrs-' of 57 varieties and more, it is hard for any woman to believe that she can make a simple home remedy which will do her much more ornrtrt and rnst her much less than the average made preparation. Take the subject of wrinkles, for instance. There is nothing in the world so effective for removing or preventing wrinkles, baggy cheeks and double chins, as a solution of saxolite and witch hazel. Get an ounce of puro powdered saxolite from any drug store, dissolve the full ounce in a half pint of witch hasel and use the mixture daily as a refreshing lotion. The quick and satisfac tory results wui surprise you. n,ven after the very first application there is a marked Improvement. The wrinkles are less in evidence and the face has a firm, "solid" feeling that la very comforting. Saves Yon MONEY
