How Names Were Added.
In both Portland and Seattle several
causes were found by the census bu-

A private organization in each city,
in Portland perhaps more than one or
ganiZatiOn, had slips printed containing
the census questions, and names We're
added by the enumera tors from the
slips thus collected. The organizations

Wrinkles.

One of the chief causes Of wrinkles
among girls who are getting along"
and women who are spoken OF as
still young" lies in their reluctance
to wearing glasses when the need ar
rives Instead of recognizing and
frankly acknowledging the symptoms
of imperfect or failing sight. these
misguided young women persist in
straining their eyes with the effort to
find the right focus for seeing any par
ticular object until the whole face is
a mass Of wrinkles and the worried
expression becomes fixed for good.
Wearing glasses year or two earlier
for the time surely comes when
they must be worn-would not only
prevent the unsightly wrinkles, bu;
also because of the relief from nerve
strain, would give a serenity of ex.
preston that would take years from
the apparent age at trying transition
period when the twenties are fast re-
ceding before the shadows of the ap
preaching thirties. 1t is cheering to
know that the shadows grow Lighter
with each successive decade.
