Il have read in your paper many
opinions on the modern girl given by
young men," she writes, but have
not found an answer TO the question

1T seems to me that the average
man marries the coy, quiet girl, but
after n few years OF married life is
apt to seek the society of the viva

his wife's happiness"
Here are some opinions OF London
people:

Il think the quiet man generally
marries, and generally should marry
the vivacious GIRL" he says. and the
bright vivacious man, on the con-
trary, prefers and gets on better with
his opposite
Some of the quietest men have

Location Of oaroen of Eden.

Many Biblical scholars place the
Garden of Eden between the Euphrates
and the Tigris. This is now to be re-
claimed and once again made fertile.
English engineers have already in
vaded the region, and are building a
great dam across the Euphrates, not
far from Bagdad by which water will
be carried over the land as is done in
Egypt and India. That the soil Is ex-
ceedingly rich there is no denying.

Urges State Board of Budgets.

With state taxes this year more
than $2.000,000 higher than the record,
and 65 per cent increase over last
year, Lieutenant Governor Ross urged
the creation of new commission OF
state officers, which shall prepare for
each legislature a single, general ap-
preparation bill, containing all the ap-
preparations for the running expenses
of the state, including every state in
stitution and department.
The multiplicity of appropriation
bills going from senate to house and
from house to senate, and modified at
each interchange by both bodies now
makes it impossible, while the legis-
lature is In session, to determine what
the total appropriations will be.
For this reason the appropriation
bills that go through first contain
many items which should be pruned
out to keep down state taxes. 1t was
this lack of knowledge on the legisla.
lures part on what the total would be
that resulted In the abnormally high
state taxes this year. he asserts.
The commission, he says. should In
clude both the governor and auditor.
