MATCHING Shirts.

The laundryman's bookkeeper In
Iuired innocently why she was requir-
ed to charge the gentleman at No 60
a higher price for washing his shirts
and collars than any other customer
Because he belongs to the small but
troublesome group of gentlemen who
insist that their shirts, collars and
white ties shall be exactly the same
shade of white and send brand new
tie along as sample to wash by, ="
said the proprietor.
at is very difficult to get several
pieces of linen to turn out the same
shade in the wash, partly because they
are not all the same quality of linen.
A garment that is part cotton is apt
to wash yellow coarse linen absorbs
more blue than a fine linen. / agree
with No. SO that nothing looks worse
than collar, tie and shirt of different

MAN PROVES HIS SUPREMACY
in Their Marvellous Flight
Through the Air.

Nature has long put the air first In
the speed of living creatures. Next
to the birds came the land animals.
The fishes trailed behind
It has come to that already with
mans speed records. Tuesday a
French aviator named Guillaux drove
a flying machine 11S miles in an hour,
from Sayigny-sur-Brave to Paris, and
thereby beat the best record ever
made by an automobile in tnis coun-
try or Europe by about six miles. No
railroad train ever came anywhere
near the sustained speed Of the bird
man. who averaged almost two miles
a minute for so minutes.
The fastest racing boats, it is need
less to say, are far behind the record
of the automobiles and the railroad
trains Their feats are wonderful. in
view of the conditions they have to
contend against, but their limit. so far
is less than a mile minute. for any
distance, however short.
So the air becomes the field for
mans swiftest travel. Flight leeds in

With the hair and hats she's wearing

She is busy regulating this and than and

She insists on bearing burdens that her

She is furnishing sensations: with her

She is proving that she clearly has the

Makinu Future Farmers.

Since the beginning of 1919 the
state of Victoria, Australia, has taken
1850 boys between sixteen and TWEEN
ty years of age from England. All
these boys have been granted steam
ship passages at less than half the
minimum fare, which is $3.50, and
they have been given government
guaranty of farm work Immediately
upon landing in Melbourne. Hitherto
both Australia and Canada have been
following the policy of trying TO take
only experienced British farm work
ers for the agricultural work of the
Dominions. Australia now takes any
healthy boy of good character of all
classes and calling and guarantees to
place him with a good farmer at 1872
to $3.50 per week, according to eff
cheney, in addition to board and lodg-
ing.

Consular Mass.

It is not generally known that in
all the large cities in the Leyant wher-
ever there is a French consul or agent
a special mass, called the consular
mass" is celebrated once a month.
AT this mass" says LIE Cri de Paris.
'all the diplomatic corps attend as
well as the representatives Of ortho-
dox Russia, and Protestant Germany
But the mass is always presided over
by the French consul The latter is
seated in the place of honor, where a
large red velvet chair with golden feet
is prepared for him. No other diplo-
mat has such a seat. Whatever the
rank of our agent, everybody respects
his prerogative, and our representa-
tive, whether he be Lutheran, Calvin
ist, Israelite or Free Mason, never
fails 20 exercise it."

MEMORY AND ABILITY
GENERAL IDEA THEY ARE SYNON.
YMOUS TERMS is WRONG.
Numerous Instances in History Where
Men of intellect Were Notorious for
Their, Experimentation
Gus Case in Court.

During the course of a recent trial
instituted for the purpose of deciding
whether an aged millionaire had need
of a guardian to administer his affairs,
one of the principal arguments sup
porting the charge of incompetency
related to defective memory. The is
sue is full of human interest and can
be discussed as psychological prob
lem quite apart from the legal merits
of this particular case.
Fate was surely in her most ironi-
cal mood when she tempted an alien
ist to testify that the octogenarian
must be incompetent because OF q
faulty recollection of the court pro-
ceedings, and then forced the special
ist to confess that he could not re-
member question which had been
asked him only few minutes before
Hoist with him own petard, the expert
cut an amusing figure, but his profit
from the striking lesson should out
weigh all the personal discontinue to
which he was subjected.
There are few fallacies more gen.
orally entertained than the theory
that memory is an index to mental ca
pacity While it is true that an ut
ter inability to recall anything out
side of the fixed idea is a sign of in
sanity, 1t is equally true that many
men who have made their mark in the
world have VIGOROUSLY bad memories.
That is to say, they are remarkable
for the things they forget. but it will
usually be found that theirs is the
treasure of a selective memory re-
tanning only what is useful for present
purposes.
A distinguished politician, also
something of a wag, said that he owed
his success to an aptitude for forget
ting everything, including promises
and convictions, but excepting names
and faces.
On the other hand there are count
less instances of men with phenome-
nal memories who scarcely knew
enough to come in out OF the wet.
They are literally peripatetic ency,
clopedias, very useful for reference
purposes to others, but totally unable
to focus their knowledge with any eff
feet upon a given object. Their minds
are junk shops rather than work
shops
AS a French philosopher observed,
a general is not great in proportion to
the magnitude of his army, but in pro-
portion to his command of the army
for any immediate situation. Better
small army under perfect control
than an unwieldy force apt to degen-
crate into a rabble when faced by SUI
perior order He applied the illustra-
ton TO the field of thought and show
ed that it was not the multitude Of
disCrganized ideas, but the smaller
number well arranged that usually
won mental conflict
In 9TH" words, success in life, to
say nothing Of mere competency in
the legal sense, is not matter of
memory. 1t is the judiciously selec-
tive rather than the indiscriminately
retentiye brain that counts in the bat
tie of life. Some few men have had
prodigious memories which were not
developed at the expense OF the rea-
soning processes, but as rule the
law of compensation holds, and too
much intellectual fat means too little
intellectual muscles.

to utter the words which would reveal
cealed, Gloria was upon her. She
seemed with one bound to have leapt
the space that separated them.
You Jezebel!" she ragged, and struck
her fair upon the mouth.
Ryan and Kelly did not stir. The
unexpected had happened, and they
were spellbOund.
Gloria's breath rushed through her
teeth with a horrid, kissing sound, her
face was flushed, her hair touseled,
and ger waist in disarray. Yet she
needed nothing but the wild impulse
to defend her own.
Little Ella, her scant strength all
spent, gasped out that she would tell
nothing Gloria was beside herself
and the premise meant nothing to her.
With a mans strength she lifted the
woman up, held her there an instant,
and then hurled her back upon the
bed Her head fell over the side, and
she lay as one dead.
Her rage was still hot upon her as
she turned TO confront the two men.
"As for you, get out"
Ryan made one last half-hearted
stand.
Say, the boss hates that man. Are
you really Dave Kerr's daughter"
And you need to ask such ques-
toni" she stormed. ASK Mike Moo
nan if you will, but beware Of David
Kerr! If ever you have cause to fear
him, you have it now. My anger is his
anger and don't you dare defy the
daughter Of David Kerr"
She took a step forward menacing-
ly, as if she had strength to lnf1ict
the same chastisement they had seen
administered to the woman. They
did not stay to argue with her. LeaY-
ing Little Ella to her fate, they made
hasty retreat.
No sooner were they out of the room
than Gloria put into execution what
she had designed when they departed
the first time. Rushing to the door
she closed it hastily and pushed the
washstand in front of it, wedging it
under the knob. This done, she ran
back and dragged Wright from his
hiding place. There was no thought
Of the woman whose head hung over
the side of the bed in such CHASTITY
fashion
Gloria lifted his head and dashed
water upon his face. She watched
him closely, and as she saw that 1t
had no effect upon him, a sudden fear
seized her and her cheeks were
blanched. With trembling fingers she
tore at his shirt and felt for the beat
of his heart She could feel its faint
pulsation. He lived.
With a wild cry she flung herself
forward in deep swoon upon the
body OF the unconscious man.

HOW SHE RETAINED YOUTH
Great Actress Had Set of Rules Which
Seem Contrary TO General
Belief,

Modjeska, the famous Polish &C.
tress, who charmed our mothers and
fathers, retained her youthful looks
and spirit until middle life.
When she was about fifty years old
some one asked her the secret of
keeping young.
1 take a hot bath every night, =
said the actress, and long, sound
sleep. Then l eat a light breakfast,
a hearty dinner at two, tea and bread
at five and supper after the perform
ance. l am a great believer in soap
and water and plenty of sleep.
After all, it is none of these out
side aids that keeps one young. Keep
ing young inside is what counts"
Of course some persons would ar
que that cold bath every morning
and no supper in the middle of the
night would lead to health and
youthful looks. But Modjeska's adj
vice goes to prove that every woman
must work out a course of life that
agrees with her and then stick to it.
Her occupation and tastes and con-
stitution must all be taken into &C
count. Then her rule must be form
ulated, tried, corrected and lived up
to.
Youth seemed to be hereditary with
ModjeSka. It is said that when her
old mother-a simple mountaineer in
POland-was seventy-five her children
took her a set of wooden underwear.
The old lady wore the garments from
morning till night. At night she cried,
and asked to be allowed to take them
off.
But they are good for YOU" said
the children
But said the old woman, 'if
wear those Woolly things now, what
shall l wear when | am old?"
