"Dental Divination."

In Paris the theory that mans soul
and also wonan's, is revealed by the
length, shape, inclination and spacing
of the teeth has been put forward by
certain Neutrality-suspicious., and society
is greedily grasping at the novelty.
The new method of dental divina.
ton is declared TO be much more Ger.
tain than palmistry, mind reading,
chronology or such Old-fashioned di.
versions as fortune telling by cards
and teacups. One newspaper an.
nounces hat invitations are already
out for a "dentomacy seance." Here
are some of the secrets" which the
new science" processes to lay bare:
Long, narrow teeth indicate vanity;
teeth small, separated and very white
are a certain sign of Inconsistency and
tickle character; long, irregular teeth,
projecting forward, are an index of
avarice and egOism; small. uneven
teeth indicate an uncertain DISPOSE
ton, with a tendency to nervousness;
untruthfulncss is shown by teeth
which crowd and overlap.

WALKING Is Fashionable,

Carriages and motor cars for shop
ping and shOrt-distance visits are for
the moment in distavor in london and
the latest fad amCng Women is to
walk. One of the reasons for this is
that owing 10 the large number Of
Cancelled social engagements Is a re-
suit of the national mourning women
have time to shop with leisure and
comfort. Instead of rushing from con-
cert to reception, etc, every after
noon, they make informal calls on old
friends. Usually in the season the
London society woman rarely walks a
step. She has neither time o inclin-
alton.
Physicians are encouraging the fad
and are doing their best to make deli
cate patients try it. They are recon-.
mending it as a cure for jaded nurves.
Slowly, but surely walking is becom-
ing the most fashionable pursuit of
this dull season.
Women will make time to walk, it is
predicted. and England will once more
be able to boast of her feminine pc
destrians who do their ten miles a
day easily, as they used to do 20 years
ago.-New York Sun.

GOT THE BEST OF HIS WIFE
Philadelphia Man Is Chuckling Over

Sometimes man has the last word,
but it isn't often in these days of SUI

of West Philadelphia is chuckling over
the way he got the best of his wife in
an argument the other day.
She is a nice, little curly-headed
woman, who adores her husband, home
and babies, but has been %inoculated
with the germ of votes for women.

fancy work. The making Of good
concrete, whether in the form of
blocks or in walls, is no boys job. 1t
requires intelligence. just as n con-

things by their worst aspects. And
the men who made blocks that absorb

mischief to the block. There are

The subject of cement construction
Tor homes has attracted much atten-
ton among architects in the last few
years, and on account of the popular
demand for such houses is bound to re-
main in the front. There is no ques
ion that the well-built cement house
IS both economical and sanitary. 1t
IS war; in winter and cool in sum
mer. Now, lest there be some preju-
lice in the mind of any reader, it may
aot be out of place to make a little

to nearly any design the architect
may select.
Cement houses require no repairs
whatever. and the older they get the
more nearly like stone they become.
Cement work placed in the Coliseum
of Rome is as strong today as it was
1000 years ago when it was put there.
So in selecting the materials for the
construction of a home or even of any
other structure that it is desired
should be lasting no better material
than cement can be selected.
Now, for cement construction the
design Of the home shown here is per
fectly adapted. This house ma be
built Of eight-inch concrete blocks for
the walls and for the porch, and the
round porch columns may be Of
an elaborate basement. Here the
furnace room will be located and also
the kitchen, toilet, a laundry and
coal bin. On the main floor there is
a good sized living room. a dining
room and two bedrooms. The size
of the house is 23 feet 6 inches wide
and 81 feet long. If it is possible a
site should be selected for the house
where gravel will be available on the
ground for the making of the blocks.
This can be taken from the eXcava.
ton for the basement. If that is done
it will greatly reduce the cost. The
blocks should all be made in ad-
vance and allowed plenty of time to
cure. The secret of making a concrete
block that will be i%mpervious to wa
ter is to use a we'll graded gravel
that is. a gravel in which the stones
vary in size from sand to stones {
half inch in diameter. The cement
should be sound and plenty of il
should be used, with a waterprOOfine
of hydrated lime in the face. The mix
ing should be thorough and plenty of
