The Flea stiIl Jurnps.


Dear Miss Grey: I think
you, Tom, and Jim, are all
wrong about the flea. You
are all wrong in comparing
its proportion in jumping
ability to that of a man. Az
Jim says, flea Is lis of
an inch long, Then 1t would
take 1,152 fleas put end to
end to reach as high as o man
6 feet tall, and they would
not weigh as much as one
Joint of his little toe.
A flea's jumping capacity
Is from 9 to 10 feet with
ease, and 1t would take
about 100000 fIeas to
weigh as much as a 175-
pound man. Therefore II
this man could jump in COM
parison to weight of the
flea, he could jump from
San Francisco to New York
In three jumps. This has
been figured out by scien-
tific men years ago.
AN OBSERVER OF FLEAS
FROM NEBRASKA.
AL hope this settles tn
question in the minds Of other
as well as IL does in mine. ssSul
ficient unto the day Is the ev,
thereof" and It sufficeth me
MIR. Flea is considerate enough I
Jump far enough to keep ava
from me.

I have known women who
would not be happy under cir
cumstances that would make

pose. Most OF those who talk
breathiessIy about the 'fmmor-
atty" of the present fashions
start from the wrong premises.
They go on the supposition that
nature did not supply us with a
physique simply for the same
reason 1t supplies one to them;
that we may exercise the func-
tions which makes 1t possible for
us to live in health and content
ment. Most men persist in think
ing woman only as a lure (more
or less) to themselves. They
have not yet found out that
women are not always thinking
OF the effect they produce on
man.
A woman's hands and feet,
arms and legs are not charms"
but physical necessities which
she must US In quite the same
way as man. 1t is mans imagina-
ton which makes them Charms"
and as such they are quite as
visible to him under the volumin-
Gus petticoats worn in the Vic
torian age and the voluminous
sleeves of little later period as
they are under the X-ray gar
ments of today
The present costumes are very
graceful and pretty. To wear a
corset SO loose and we'll made
that it gives you plenty of room
to breathe - to wear very few
underclothes and those of the
kind which do not tax or impede
your motions-to have your
gowns cut with the skirts that are
narrow enough to be light and
easily carried, even If they have
to be split on the side for a few
inches-to eschew those awful
collars is certainly a boon to
women who have not always
been so comfortable.

believe that modesty, like
happiness, is a state of mind.

A.-Many thanks. Margaret
Sangster was q woman who ''got
at the heart of things" and 1 am
glad to publish q little poem that
holds such true standards. Here
1t is. readers:
LIFE.
Life Is too brief
Between the budding and the fall
ing leaf,
Between the seed time and the
golden sheaf,
For hate and spite.
We have no time for malice and
for greed;
Therefore, with love make beau
tiful the deed;
Fast speeds the night.
Life is too swift
between the blossom and the
SHOWS white drift,
Between the silence and the lark's
uplift,
For bitter words. =
In kindness and in gentIeness our
speech
Must carry messages of hope and
reach
The sweetest chords.
Life is too great 2
Between the infants and the
mans estate,
Between the clashing of earth's
strife and fate,
For petty things.
Io! We shall yet who creep, will,
numbered feet.
Walk glorious over heavens

Church Yard as Playground

On the athletic field of a Catholic college in
Chicago ball games are played regularly on Sun
attendants. And lately the Society of Friends in
Flushing Il. l., turned over the spacious grounds
surrounding its place of worship for use on Sun
days as playground
Thus gradually is the old ideal of Sunday OBJ
servance, which made the day solemn and severe,
| is apparently giving way to the notion that
| play may be innocent, useful and wholesome.
Some good folk are grieved by the change, and
where their feelings are prompted by conscience
they deserve and should receive our sympathetic
respect.
But custom inevitably follows circumstances;
and the high tension of the modern struggle for
existence, with It's scant leisure for weektime mid
week recreation, introduces factors into the pres
ent Sunday problem which were not there in the
early times.
Joy is not necessarily sinful nor selfre-
preston religious. The peril lies, not in allow
ing tired folks to find rest in Sunday amuse-
meut to Overshad0w the obligations which all
d us should feel toward the Creator for the
blessings we enjoy.
The children of Flushing probably will feel
more kindly toward the good Quakers for the priv
iege of playing in the churchyard and be more in
clined to respect the hours of worship than if de-
MED the chance for natural play and forced to seek
1t on the sly.
At all events, the incident seems worthy of no.

Der you suggested that she
pretend she was at the
Johnstown Flood, the dishes
were people whom she res
cued, dried off and put in a
safe place. I'll bet you
helped more than you could
count on your fingers and
toes. 1t is surprising how
many mothers there are who
have never thought, nor
tried to think, of such things
to make the work a little bit
more pleasant for the chill
dren, for what child does like
to wash dishes? know I
didn't. and don't yet, but I
go at them knowing they
must be done, and make up
my mind to do them well,
and as quickly as possible.
i also had to be my own
mother, and had no one to
work for me like the little
girl in this case, but had to
do it all myself. So, think
she is lucky to have a step
mother as good as she de-
scribes. Miss Grey, wish 1
could meet and know you.
Thanking you.

WHITE HOUSE FAMILY
PICKS A CHURCH HOME
To Worship at Central Presbyterian
Unless Curious Crowds
Interfere.

That President Wilson and his family
during their stay in Washington intend
TO attend the Central Presbyterian
Church. of which Rev. James ii. Taylor
is pastor became known today. 1t is
understood. however. that while the Pres
ident and his family will affiliate them
selves with this church. they will not be-
come permanent members. but will
change TO any other church or attend any
other church at any time they see fit.
1t was stated that if at any time he
found a large crowd assembled so that
the religious ceremonies took on more
the nature or a public spectacle than de-
votional exercises. the President would
go TO another place of worship
President Wilson has no intention Of
allowing his religious devotions TO become
a thing OF notoriety, IL is said. and re-
serves the right. therefore. 10 change his
place of worship at any desired moment.
President Wilson has already shown his
intention several times of following this
policy by turning from a church where
he had been reported to attend and goin,;
10 another church because of the crowd
awaiting his arrival. The first informa- :
ton of the choice Of the President and
his family was given In a letter received

NO PAY FOR ABSENTEES
FROM MILITARY CAMPS
National Guardsmen Must Receive
Instruction if They Get United
States Money.

Officers and enlisted men of state mi
litia will not receive pay from the ma
tional government for duty in camps
OF instruction for time absent from
such camps on leave They will be
paid for actual duty only.
Secretary Garrison Of the War De-
partment has directed that practices
complained of shall be brought to the
attention of the officers of the army
charged with the duty of mastering
the organized militia for pay, and that
they be instructed to adopt measures
that will prevent any payment for
services not rendered.
The War Department has learned that
officers and enlisted men Of the organ
lied militia, participating in camps Of
instruction and other joint exercises,
have in the past been mustered and
paid for periods during which they
were actually absent from their duties
on leaves of absence, on pass by YER
bal permission or for other causes In
some instances the militiamen have
spent their nights in camp, but have
been present during only a portion of
the day. and at times remained absent
for periods varying from one to sew
eral days.
The essential consideration" says
the bulletin of the division of militia
affairs calling attention to the matter.
lin all these cases is that service was
imparted-the cause Of absence being
immaterial. The funds provided to
forward the instruction of the militia
were spent to no purpose
