On the back. or kitchen side Of the
screen, make large pockets of the ma

How to Treat Cuts in Envelopes.

Many of the troubles to which the
premature deterioration of tires is
traceable can be readily corrected ii
given attention in time, and as re.
suit more than a little money can be
saved.
Small cuts in envelopes, almos: i'm
perceptible at first, but which soon
cause tires complete destruction,
should be repaired promptly.
The average nlotorist. inclined to
discount the importance of giving
small envelope cuts immediate atten-
ton must pay the penalty of his
neglect.
There is only one correct way"
says the Michelin tire man, ito re-
pair the little incisions in the outer
surface of a tire that eventually causes
so much trouble and expense. The
depth of the cut should be first ascer-
tanned by inserting the end of a thin
pointed object not too sharp or the
trouble may be aggravated. If there
is nothing better at hand a blunt
penknife will answer.

ter of an inch deep there is no i'm

Immediately. That a small stone

ing the small stone will begin to work
its way slowly but surely further and
further into the rubber. 1t will rub
the canvas, pierce it and finally work
its way right through the whole thick

BETTER MEN AND WOMEN.

Americans as rule boast of our

imply that ours is the greatest people
in the world. No doubt this is true,
too, but it takes some of the ginger
out OF one to learn that OF this ninety
million three million are in states

insane or belong to the incompetent
and dependent class. Just think of
it-over three per cent of the popula-
ton, not counting little children, are
dependents or worse, are tax on
the community and drag on the
wheels of progress.
BY common experience man has
come to recognize the fact that he
cannot afford to raise only the best
of stock. Time and money is spent
constantly to improve the standard
and all animals are measured by that
higher standard. How is it with
man?
Statistics show that in England
|25 per cent of the population bring
into the world so per cent of the chill
dren. This Is per cent includes the
criminal element, the paupers. and
those dependent on charity, the in
competent and insane. These children
!are sure to inherit in a large meas
ure the faults OF their parents.
Is it any wonder that statesmen are
advocating that the state should have
"a closer supervision of marriage, that
an effort should be made to eliminate
as far as possible the incompetent
and criminal element from perpetual
ing their families?
Statistics of persons show that a
large per cent of criminals have Grim

record has been kept, the descendants
of one woman, a Mrs. Jewett, who was
herself criminal, showed $40 Of her
descendants to be either criminals,
paupers or iDcompetents. 1t cost the
state of New York millions in money
to care for this family. Would it not
have been better that they had never
been born?
The marriage of near relatives is a
frequent source Of feeble-minded chill
dren. If one will take look among

that they will not be long in finding
where cousins have married and also
find one or more of the children de-

The time is coming when more
stringent laws will govern marriages.
Let US in the meantime try and take
better care of the normal children
that they may become strong in mind

It Has Come.

The stayless corset has come. 1t
is here. Has it come to stay? Maybe.
Maybe not. 1t is whole lot like any
other corset in that it is an article
of wearing apparel for women. Other
wise it is not. It has no stays and
very little shape, except at the top.
Just after you take it from the box.
and while it is still rolled up, it looks
much like the hind leg of draft
horse with big wind-puff around the
fetlock. The swelling around the top
is of balloon construction, so that
when it is unrolled and set up for
use, the thing looks like summer
squash set on fence post. The idea
of the stayless corset is to make all
wOmen's forms look alike. The only
difference in the corsets is their size.
Their shape is exactly alike, so that
if man should lose his wife in a dark
should be compelled to pick her out
without using a light, he would ex.
perience considerable difficulty unless
he knew positively her exact size.
When a woman gets into a stayless
corset she looks as if she had been
poured into it-from the outside. The
difficulty OF filling it out is up to her
Any kind of light filler may be used
if nature has not provided for it. But
the corset does not really need any
filler for it will retain its shape ex.
cept when subject to strong external
pressure and then it will instantly go
back into shape when that pressure is
released. When the wearing of the
stayless. corset becomes universal
then milady will have a form exactly
like that Of the hired girl, the coon
