will be a handsome face. They
are dead wrong there. Women

In America We Do Not
Exalt the Dandy; We

the mold of form to a pinnacle and
initiate him We throw bricks at
him and laugh at him

are slaves to beauty and who make
fools of themselves over it-not

Men Slaves to Beauty, Women Are Not
Girls of D. S. Won't Find Necessary to Form Protective League
Against Handsome Men, Says Dorothy Dix.

IN Berlin, where a mans a man
and a husbands a husband and
hard to get, no matter what
sort of a face he has on him,
Fraulein Derben has organized a
society that is called The League
Against Beauty"
The members of this organiza-
tion are all young women, and they
have pledged themselves to marry
only ugly men, on the theory that
handsome husbands make more
unsatisfactory life partners than
homely ones, and that in matri-
mony pretty is as pretty does.
American girls will probably not
find it necessary to form a pro
tective league to guard themselves
against youths who are cursed with
the fatal gift Of beauty Apol}os not
being overly plentiful in this coun-
try however common they may be
in Germany.

Nearly Thirty Comets Have

they are unable to go very far

Nearly thirty comets are now
known which have thus been

He is not powerful enough to
keep them for himself, but is
compelled to hand them over to
the sun. He is like one of the
great feudal barOns Of the Mid

his prisoners to his lord, the King.
Still. he sometimes interferes
with them second time, if they
venture near him, and sends them
scurrying off in new orbits.
He has also created havoc

he has trained into groups, and he

If there's going to be any Beauty
and the Beast business in her
family she wants to qualify for
the role Of Beauty. That's the
reason that you often see a pretty
woman marry a grotesquely ugly
man, but very rarely a handsome
man married to a homely woman.
Another reason why women do
not care for a superabundance of
good looks in a man is because a
handsome man is invariably inor-
dinately vain, with the vanity that
makes the vainest woman seem
humble and self-deprecating. He
has a vanity that requires to be
continually fed on flattery of a
warmer and more piquant kind
than any domestic brand. 1t seems
a pity to him to waste so much
charms on any one woman. and
lhdl one mere Vile, so he TOamS
abroad to give other women
chance for to see and to admire"
him.
An instructive sense of self
protection makes women choose
homely men as husbands. They
may like to feast their eyes occa-
sionally upon a matinee hero, but
when they so home they want
something more than a living pic
ture in the house. They want a
man, and if he's intelligent, and
good, and kind, and generous. they
don't care a button about his looks.

Jupiter. He turns on his own axis
so rapidly that his day is only
ten hours long, and if we were
situated on his equator we should
find ourselves whirled round at
the rate of more than $1,000 miles
per hour.
one consequence Of this is that
he has dattened his own roles and
Swelled out his own equator by
centrifugal force to such an ex-
tent that he measures about 5000
miles less through the poles than
through the equator. His equa-
torial diameter is about $4,000
miles, and his polar diameter only
about $4,000 miles.
This difference is so striking
that you can see it easily if you
look at Jupiter through tele-
scope. He is not round like a
baseball, but elongated like a foot
ball or rather, flattened like a
pumpkin. Another consequence
of his mad energy of motion,
which You will see if you inspect
him with telescope. is that his
whole surface is covered with
parallel belts Of clouds drawn
out into bands by the swift rota-
ton. These clouds vary in color
and in form, and while you are
watching them you will actually
see the planet turning, If you
continue observations for an hour

The Supreme Court
By REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY.

Tit was one hundred and twenty
years ago-on September II.

assembled at Philadelphia. pre-
scented to the convention its final
report on the third of the three
great departments of the General
Government-the Supreme Court.
With very little pickering the
committees report was sanction
ed, and the most remarkable and
original of all the creations of the
convention" became a part Of the
Constitution.
The Supreme Court is unique
among the intellectual work of
the ages. AT the time there was
nothing like it anywhere on earth:
nor, for that matter, is there any
thing like it to this day. Mr..
Gladstone declared. with unusual
enthusiasm, that the Constitution
Of the United States was the
greatest piece of work that ever
sprang from the human mind:
and the Supreme Court is in
many ways the most wonderful
part of the Constitution
Its creation stamps the men of
the Philadelphia convention a

the planet Jupiter glowing

like a great super-star which has
no need to twinkle in order to call

why the ancients gave to this
magnificent planet the name Of
the chief of their gods. why the
Chinese called it the Regulator"
and the Egyptians "Horus, the
