WHAT NOVEL READERS LIKE
Great Authorities Have Differed on
the Subject, and the Matter Still
Is Under Discussion.

That old question whether the
poor prefer to read stories about
themselves rather than about the rich
has been revived in England and dis
cussed by serial writers. Some be-
lieve that most readers, whether poor
or rich, prefer novels dealing with a
class different from their own, and
some maintain that the majority of
readers are more interested in their
own class. Nobody knows. But
something undoubtedly depends
upon the novelist himself. Dickens
had no difficulty in interesting every
body in the poor. Thackeray made
the well-to-do and the rich interest
ing. So does Howells. So does Mrs.
Wharton. And innumerable others.
On the other hand, Jack London,
Kaufman, James Oppenheim, and
possibly two or three others have
sketched wonderful pictures of lowly
and obscure lives. The great Amer
lean novel," which may have been
written, but is still awaiting publica-
ton, will deal neither with the rich
nor the poor exclusively, nor with the
middle class, but with all sorts and
conditions of men. 1t will be a novel
of democracy-neither aristocratic
nor proletarian.

FOLLOW OUTLINE OF HOUSES
ward an Idea Concerning the Hat
Dear to Femininity.

Did it ever occur to you that head
gear takes on the form of houses {?
1t is hard to account for some of the
weird hats of the day by this theory,
although perhaps an effort to carry
out the lines of the skyscraper may
be traced in the beanstalk decora-
tons of feathers and flowers which
tower skyward from our hats.
However hard to prove, this is
theory put forward by an authority
on woman's dress. To understand
its claim to consideration call up a
picture of medieval woman with a
tall funnel-shaped headdress-the
henin. Isn't it for all the world like
the spire of a Gothic church? And
doesn't it also suggest the peak tent
where her crusading or warrior hus-
band or brother or father spent much
of his time?
Take the eastern turban for anoth-
er example. 1t is almost like the
dome of some mosque OF synagogue
in outline.
Another eastern example is the
Chinese coolie. When he is wearing
his rainy day straw hat he looks as
if he had vertically donned the roof
of his own straw-thatched hut.
Dome and pagoda parasols, which
properly may be classed as head COW
erings, are evidently not alone in Dor
rowing their outlines from buildings.

FOR YOUR COMPLEXION.

Now comes a New York scientist
and strikes a blow at the arsenic and
cold creams businesses by telling us
that to have perfectly lovely COM
plexions and white skins we must
eat plenty of salt, even if We turn
ourselves into walking reservoirs aft
erward by drinking deluges of water.
And only while ago Mary Walker
or somebody else told us to eat on
ions for the same purposes. Still,
come to think of it, we can put the
salt on the onion and so follow both
counselors, can't we?

The State journal OF Frankfort,
discussing opportunities for farm
ing, says that there is still plenty
of cheap land in Kentucky off OF
the automobile roads"
Quite sol And that is rafting
good argument for good roads.
The fertility of soil is only one of
the factors in making the price of
farming land. Location" is a
large factor. Formerly that meant
nearness to S C h o o ! S, churches,
markets, railroads and neighbors.
Now adays it means accessibility.
A farm that is five miles from
schools, churches, markets or rail-
roads with a good road covering
the distance is more desirable. and
more salable, than an equally fer
tile farm two miles from such fa-
cilities but situated upon a poor
road. And neighborhoods, in
these days of motor vehicles,
stretch over whole counties if the
roads are good. A drive of thirty
or forty miles to dinner is no
more, with a good road and an
automobile than drive of three
or four miles over road that is
impossible for automobiles.
The expansion of neighborhoods
as result of increased facilities
for transportation is perhaps the
most desirable feature of the evo-
luton of country life. Where the
roads are good a man need not
buy 100 acres of land because it
lies next to a farm occupied by
family that seems socially agreea-
BILE. Even if he is not driving a
motor vehicle the relative prices
of horse-drawn pleasure vehicles
and the cheaper automobiles have
awakened his interest. Before au-
tomobiles became generally used
Central Kentucky was terra in
cognita" to many Louisvillians
who we're widely Travelled. Much
of Kentucky, the greater portion
of it, remains so because there are
no good roads. Before automo-
biles were used one of the most
attractive features of life in Gen.
trial Kentucky was the neighbor-
hood life that was made possible
by roads that made a buggy
ride" of twenty miles a pleasure.
When there were no electric cars
nor motor cars to connect Lexing-
ton with Paris, Georgetown, YER
sailles, Nlcholasville and other
neighboring towns good roads
made possible social life that had
its center in Lexington and COW
cred the counties adjoining Fayette.
There is plenty of cheap land
off of the automobile roads, and
it will remain cheap land till the
roads are improved. :, Courier
