on't temporize with pyorrhea or re-,
ceding gums. It is a serious condition
which if neglected means abscesses,
marginal cavities and eventual extrae-
tien of the teeth. If you have this
trouble, go to your dentist and begin
treatment to arrest the progress of
the disease. Also use Lykolene, the
powerful antiseptic, as a mouth wash,
every day. This will keep the gums
from becoming soft and spongy; it will
make them firm and keep them healthy
Whether you have pyorrhea or not
you should use Lykolene as a mouth
wash to keep teeth and gums in fine
condition and to purify the breath.
Used regularly it works wonders.

WASHINGTON, May 4— Senate
Republican leaders saw prospects ot a
fight today over President Harding's
nomination of Nat Goldstein of St.
Louis to be collector of internal reve-
nue for the First Missouri district.
Opposition to confirmation of Mr.
Goldstein, It was said, would be based
on his acceptance of $2500 when a

‘heard for several miles. Dense black

WASHINGTON, May 4—Attorney
General Daugherty, In a formal state-
ment, today, referring to charge made
against him in the Senate by Senator
Caraway (Democrat) of Arkansas, in
connection with the release from the
Atlanta penitentiary in 1912 of Charles
W. Morse, New York shipbuilder, de-
clared: "The real people behind this
movement, aside from the partisans
interested, have not yet shown their
hands or their heads.”
Declaring his intention, "if there is
occasion for it,” to publish letters
written several years ago by President
Taft and George W. Wickersham, then
attorney general, which he said ‘con-
clusively answered all charges." Mr.
Daugherty asserted that "when the
facts are fully known, we would not
expect even the persons now being
used for purposes which they do not
suspeet to ever refer to the matter
again.”

Dr. Perrin explained that physiogn-
omy is the seience of determining hu-
anan traits by the size and position of
the ears, the eyes, the nose, the chin
and other facial members. Phrenology
is the science of determining human
character by investigating certain
brain areas that are supposed to de-
velop as certain mental faculties or
certain talents develop.

WASHINGTON, May 4—Chairman
MeCumber of the Senate finance com-
mittee. was authorised formally today
by the majority of that committee to
present his soldiers bonus plan, with
the bank loan provision, to President
Harding as the committee plan.
Senator Smoot, Republican, Utah,
however, informed the committeemen
that he would lay before the president
his bonus plan, which centeruplates a
twenty-year endowment life insur-
ance plan without any specific provi-
sions for loans to be made to veterans.
"Professional psycohlogists are in-
clined favorably toward accepting
physiognomy as a reliable science in
attempting to read human character,
but they are rather skeptical regard-
ing the merits of phrenology as ap-
plied to this purpose,” declared Dr.
"I can not issue a writ of habeas
corpus for a dead man.” Judge J..C.
Hutcheson said in denying the appli-
cation.
Parker was taken from the death
cell at 11:11 a. m. His attorneys ap-
pearl'd in Federal court shortly after
11 o’clok, asking Judge Hutcheson to
igsue a write of habeas corpus on the
grounds that women had been pur-
posely excluded from service on the
jury which had convicted Parker.
The Federal judge requested the
marshal to ask Sheriff Binford to de-
lay the execution.
A telephone call to the county jail
at 11:23 a. m. elicited the information
from the sheriff that the trap has been
sprung at 11:15 a. m.
Judge Hutcheson thereupon dis-
missed consideration of the applica-
tion and Parker's attorneys withdrew.
Parker admitted shooting Conroy,
and claimed self-defense, but was
found guilty.

School children of Austin have re-
ceived an invitation through their
teachers to a picture party at the Han-
rock Saturday morning at 9 o'clock.
The party is given complimentary to
the children of Austin by Alf Harvey
of the Alf Harvey Shoe Mart. It is

tale is thrilling and the scenes are ot
profound interest. Yet that is not all
of Qiis party, for every child will re-
ceive a souvenir Don't you wish you
were a kiddi, you grown folks, and
could come to this party?
Be sure you are not late. The party
begins at 9 o'clock, children.

As a result of the action taken last
night by the Students' Assembly of
the University, there will be submitted
at this spring election a proposition
which would change the constitution
of th Students’ Association so as to
radiblly change the present appor-
ionment of representative on the Stu-
dents’ Assembly. The new plan, as
embodied in the amendment, would
eliminate the choosing of representa-
tives by any class, and have all men
and women who are to represent their
fellows on the student governing vay

ments at large
According to the scheme which will
be offered to the student body for
endorsement, the twenty-one members
of the assembly would be chosen as

WACO, Texas, May 4—A petition
in bankruptcy was filed here this
morning by Whitaker, Darneal and
called on to select people to fill po-
sitions in their stores and offices. The
speaker recalled the fact that astrology
was the favorite method of analysing
character during the middle ages in
Europe, when every court had an
astrologer who read the failure or suc-
cess of the king from the position or
the stars in the heavens.
W. H. Badger. chairman of the sub-
committee on the county free library,
reported that Austin ought to be in
good position to build such a library,
since it has been estimated that it
would cost only between fl and 11.20
per family to build it and that a half
block south of Wooldridge Park was
ret aside several years ago for this
purpose. Proper co-operation between 1
the various civic organizations and the
county commissioners court is neces-
sary to Insure the success of the
project, Mr. Badger said.
Delegates for the sixth convention
of the Lions international, which will
be held at Hot Springs, Ark., June
19-22, will be elected at the next meet-
ing. In order to facilitate this elec-
tion. a nominating committee to name
delegates consisting of Walter Eyres,
