stanza: If death could speak, the king would say. In justice to his crown, His acts they were the minister's, His words they were his own.

Even if a man was Inadvertently

The danger of the public catching the idea that death Is not to be taken seriously is less now, to be sure, than it might have been a few decades back when promenades in the graveyard were a popular outdoor sport. Still, the old grinning, chuckling epitaphs

are there, legible under the grime, to

In buying shoes one mast now look ahead to a spring season in which sports costumes, wool hose or silk and wool, or silk lisle in all of the soft colors, will be worn with footwear of the sport order in a variety of leathers. A shoe is

not in the sport clasb simply because there is a dominant interest in sport wear. Sport shoes are for street, jrolf and walking, but for dress and semi-dress the pretty straps in patent, satin, brocade and suede are correct. Shown here are

a nnmber of new styles, including straps with jeweled buckles for evening wear, suedes and satins for evening wear, white buck with fringed tongue for street and sports wear in summer and gold cloth mules for the boudoir.

Censored Tombstones By FREDERICK J. HASKIN

SI 50,000 IS STOLEN FROM TWO COLLEGES

PHILADELPHIA. March 7. Bonds and other negotiable securities valued at more than $150,000 have been stolen from the strong box of the Dr. Thomas

W. Evans Dental School and museum fund of the University of Pennsylvania It became known late last night. Walter A. Unger, assistant treasurer of the fund, is being sought by the police In connection with the case. Unger, who is 27 years old, disappeared from his home here last Tues:lay. His mother said last night she had no knowledge of his whereabouts. The theft was discovered last Wednesday when a committee of the trustees opened the strong box. All f tho securities with the exception rt tine: mortgages had been taken. ?- -ft; a!"-1 discovered, members of i t- r.Y said, that Unger had 5. fcf-v: ?"12."-! belonging to the fund in tin! v.-.;:-. ding day, saying that it v:ax IVi" V?.: ;-ayrfll of the dental i thi ol tiiassta Tho money did n:t rt-uch ili.er the school or museum, it. wa-i siatcti. Unger was not bonded, the board of trustees having made him assistant treasurer at the request of Francis B. Reeves, treasurer of the fund. Mr. Reeves, who Is chairman of the board of directors of thn Girard National bank, is seriously ill at his home in Oermantown.

WASHINGTON, D. C, March 7. Censorship is now being carried to the very grave. The latest thing in censors, according to a serious minded trade journal which keeps up with tombstone news, i3 a censor of epitaphs. This official has been appointed In an unnamed English village and entrusted with the job of seeing that graveyard solemnity is not violater by flippant quips and epigrams on the

tombstones. English vicars for a number of years have supervised to some extent tombstone sentiments. It may seem strange that now, when epitaphs are no longer indulged in by poets or poetasters, there should be any great need for a

special guardian of tombstone dignity. But the dangers, it seems, are in the epitaphs which have been perpetrated In the past. Graved on old, mossgrown, tottering stones, the verses of a century or two ago oftentimes express sentiments regarding death and the dead that are flippant, irreverent, and in short, unsuited for public perusal in this highly regulated age. Our attitude toward tombstones undoubtedly has changed. It is not so much that we think more solemnly of death, but rather than we think less of it. The churchyard is seldom the graveyard any longer. Few people

think of visiting cemeteries outside the city when they set out for a Sunday afternon stroll. Decidedly, the dead are not so much with us as they were a few centuries, or even a few generations, hack. Tombstones Topics of Talks Then, tombstones were a live topic. A man expected to have an epitaph written about him, and if there was

any fear in his mind that his relatives would not make a good job of it. he

wrote the label for his stone himself or hired a professional to write one. Ben Jonson, Milton and Pope wrote epitaphs. Shakespeare wrote his own epitaph in a four-line verse of warning to any who might wish to disturb his bones. To dash off a witty epitaph for a friend or enemy was a parlor trick with which kings and courtiers whiled away a dull afternoon. Thus when Charles II casually asked Rochester to write his epitaph, the courtier thought a minute and produced the following famous lines: Here lies our mutton-eating king, Whose word no man relied on; Who never said a foolish thing, And never did a wise one. The king took no offense, but set his

iouowing in an .migiisn tuuivujiu. Underneath this sod lies John Round, Who was lost in the sea and never was found. Rhyme or Free Verse Epitaphs were correct style and everybody had them. Those individuals whose outstanding deeds and characteristics could not be squeezed into rhymed couplets were gloriously immortalized in free verse. Lady O'Looney's epitaph is a good example: Here lies the body of Lady O'Looney. Great niece of Burke, commonly Called the sublime. She was Bland, passionate and deeply religious; Also painted in water-colors, And sent several pictures to the Exhibition. She was first cousin to Lady Jones. And of such is the kingdom of heaven. But those days are gone. Poets no longer specialize in epitaphs. Hen

pecked husbands get even by some i

other means than by writing sarcastic verses to go on tombstones. The epitaph, which started off well in this

country in the graveyards of Massachusetts, is practically defunct. Still, the possibilities of epitaph reform, even in this country, should not be overlooked. Like England, we have ample material which should be of interest to censors in our old New England churchyards. The verse which is said to have started the agitation in the English village is on an old stone. We quote it now. In future, it may be permissible to designate it only by four rows of dots: Here lies the body of Mary Ann Low-

der, I

Who bn-st. from drinking a seidlitz powder. ( Call a Mom this world to her heavenly

rest, She should have waited till it effervesced. ,

Take the following, for Instance, out

in Iowa, written on stone for dignified and sober-minded .middle westerners to read: . ? . 1 . Beneath this stone our baby lays, He neither crys nor hollers. He lived Just one and twenty days And cost us forty dollars. Or consider that admired and copied verse by some unknown English poet: Here lies my wife, Here lies she. Hallelujah! Hallelujee! The effect of such epitaphs on the public is obviously demoralizing. In the future we may have a national censor of epitaphs to see that covers

are made for all epitaphs which do not' conform to the national re gutat Ions for

tombstone literature. Or possibly the ' epitaph, official ill gather .together a collection of forbidden tombstones. . and keep them in a locked and guard- ; ed graveyard museum. Anyway, the English village , may expect to go down in history as the ; pioneer In the crusade for preservation of tombstone dignity.

Grippe, Influenza and treacherous Pneumonia all start with a cold, so guard against these dangers before your cold gets deeply seated. At the first signs of a cold (which Is just congestion) bring your circulation back to normal by rubbing Musterole on your throat, chest and back. Musterole is a counter-irritant which warms up the body quickly and sets the blood surging through the congested parts. Remember the good old-fashioned mustard plaster that was grandmother's standby? Musterole has all of the good qualities of that messy old mustard plaster without the sting and blister. Made of pure oil of mustard, camphor, menthal and other simple Ingredients, it penetrates the pores and goes straight to the seat of trouble.

During the "Flu" epidemic several years ago, Musterole was used in our

army training camps and the Y. M

C. A. War Board sent thousands of

jars to our soldiers in France.

If you are feverish, if you ache all over, rub on good old Musterole, take

a hot bath, drink plenty of hot water and go to bed and call your doctor.
