district, and he was happy until yester-
day over the inspiration that came to
him.
"In one of my towns there are six ap-
p~licants for the post mastership," said
Mr.. Connolly at the Shoreham. Three
of them have been running neck and
neck, and three have not had much
support. | determined that l should
have to pick one of the three leaders.
One of these based his claim on the
fact that he owned a store which was
unoccupied, and that If appointed post
master he could establish the post
Office in his vacant store. Another had
no vacant store, but he wanted to be
post master so he could put his daugh-
ter in to do the work. The other had
neither store nor daughter, so the hap
py thought occurred to me that l could
settle the contest by giving the post
mastership to the man who was store
less and daughterless, providing he
rented the vacant store and put the
daughter of the other applicant in as
clerk. | put this proposition up to the
three contestants, and it looked as If /
was going to come out in good shape,
satisfying all three, but yesterday | got
a telegram that the young woman had
declined to serve under the man l had
determined to appoint. So things are
Just about as bad as they were before.

could hit upon a plan that will aid me
in settling this contest ."-Washington

RED HAIR AND JEALOUSY

Monsieur Girouard, the French
scientist, has recently given to the
world some interesting facts concern
ing red haired people. 1t SEEM that
for many hundreds of years no one
has even been able to explain why a
girl who has red hair is so sure to
be popular with her men friends, why
she is never a wall flower at a dance,
and almost ure Of a seat in the car,
or why men are so persistently gallant
to a red haired girl and find her on
the whole so intensely alluring. NJ
Girouard has explained this apparent
enigma in several ways.
He claims that, first, red hair is gen.
orally accompanied by certain quail
ties which make a woman extremely
attractive. She has soft, smooth skin,
for instance, though this is sometimes
freckled. Then the finest of COM
plexions are often found on red haired
girls and these SUI kissed girls have
blood that is warmer and flows more
swiftly than that in the veins of their
supposedly less favored sisters.
This often makes them impulsive,
hot tempered, and jealous, but it al
ways makes them affectionate, and
they have a reputation for passionate
devotion. A loyal friend but a re-
lentless enemy is the red haired wo-
man. When a red haired oma has
dark blue or violet eyes and dark
lashes she is good to have for a friend

CLEANING-UP DAYS HERE

The time for "cleaning-up" days Is
now at hand, and in several nearby
communities plans are already under
way for a concerted movement for the
removal of u~nsightly rubbish in yards,
streets, vacant lots, alleys, or where
ever found, in the interest of the pub
lie health and the Improvement of the
general appearance of the city, town,
or village. The winter always brings
about accumulations of various kinds,
and while many people take interest in
making the surroundings at their
homes attractive and free from UNI
slightly objects, there are many others
who require the stimulus of a general
betterment campaign to bring about
the Improvement. 1t may be that the
partial passing of the bonfire to burn
up the dead leaves and rubbish un-
covered by the snow in spring nas
something 70 do with the carelessness
of some people about the Sticking up"
Of their places, for this furnished an
easy method of destroying material
that nowadays in some localities it is
necessary to find other means of re-
moving. But there will not be found
many to regret the absence of these
fires or decreased danger from the fire
brought about by the more stringent
modern regulations as to building bon
fires in thickly settled sections. A
number of towns in this part of the
state have had cleanup" days during
the past few years, and the marked
success of the idea has led others to
try it. In some places it has been talk.
ed about, recognized as a desirable
plan, and the matter has ended there
for lack Of leadership. 1t would APP
pear as if the official authorities of the
larger towns might we'll take up this
matter and head local movements of
this character, and the cost of teams
to remove the rubbish collected might
well be borne by the towns, for clean
and attractive streets and yards are
always an asset for the entire com
munity.-Vermillion Republican.

only two cases where both parents had
red hair.
Though the red was not a clear red
in both parents all of the eight chill
dren had red hair. If only one parent
has red hair the offspring is not so
likely to Lave it. Red haired Off
spring may come from two brown Or
from wv glossy black haired parents.
In that case both dark haired parents
will probably have had ancestors with
red hair. Glossy black hair in the
parents IS especially apt to produce
red hair in children, because all glossi.
ness is due to red hidden by black
pigment.
NJ. Girourard says red hair has been
a mark of aristocracy and beauty sole
ly because red haired persons are de-
seconded from dominating, conquering
races like the Scots, Normans, and
Scandinavians.-Chicago Tribune.

A POST OFFICE PUZZLE

Representative Maurice Connolly, OF
Dubuque, Iowa, is puzzled. With other
democrats Mr.. Connolly has been
studying the best way to satisfy the
many persons in his district who are
anxious to serve the government. The
post office problem is the most difficult
he has, for there are from six to TWEEN
ty applicants for every office in his dis
trict. He is beginning to learn the
truth of the axiom that in making an
appointment a representative makes
nine enemies and one migrate. But the
Iowa member had, after much study,
evolved a plan for the settlement of a
contest for n post mastership in his
