Warner and .Healy,
HeadlinerS in Their
Great Act Of Being Human
BY DIR. FRANK CRANE.

Listen. al We who handle the public and

tage
l mean YOU telephone girls. street cal
conductors walters at table. lunch coun-
ter attendants, railway ticket agents and
brakemen, tellers i'll banks and clerks in
department stores and anybody else whose
busiess it is to deal with the members of
the common crowd.
l will take my text from the words OF
Miss Minnie Warner, the highest paid
switchboard operator Of the Chicago Tele-
phone Company. reported in the news
papers Said she:
Don't be mechanical. Make every man
on the wire believe that your softest tones
are for him alone" Furthermore, she
said:
Don't be Indifferent. Make every kick

! take my hat off to Miss Warner. and
if nv wife viii let ME l would like to
send her Il bunch OF flowers.
1t is a great temptation for the busy
clerk to drop into machne-like ways 1t
does not require so much vitality.
But 1t Is a mistake. 1 do not refer so
much to the feelings of the customer. for
perhaps you may not care a boot how he
or she feels. and all you want to do Is to
fill your time and get Your wages. Be

that you haven't any sorry left for GUS

timental side of the question.
Let us go to the strictly business and
selfish side. Do YOU know that your
greatest asset is being human?
All you reply. I'm SO tired and
worn out that ] have no vitality left to

Postage Stamp Gum.

From the London Chronicle.
The gum on the backs of stamps and
stamp waste was once the subject of a
question in the house OF commons by the
late Sir Wilfrid Lawson. Did it contain
alcohol" anXiously asked the teetotal
baronet. and was there any danger of 1t
causing blood poisoning ii applied To a cut
finger?" The reaSsuring answer came
from the postmaster general that the gum
was absolutely free from spirit and that
the stamp waste could be used as first
aid for cut finger With impunity.

and when through the tale male pro-
vision her fathers earldon went TO her
uncle She was able to keep the Clifton
barony. Should she die without issue
the barony will revert to the D1rnleys.
Other queer complications in this part
of the hereditary system are eXemplified
by Baroness Berkeley who, in addition
to her 1909 barony. is co-heiress to the
ancient barOny of BraoSe of Cover and
general heir to the Irish earldOm Of
Ormond She married Maj. F. w. Fo'ey

Many Titles Lapse for Years.

Ordinarily titles descend in 'ta!e male, -
hut in sonic of the oder pceraSes they
go in direct line whether male or fe-

through the holders being in possession
OF superior titles. The Duchess of Nor

not be heard of again for some time. for

FrR ANkLETs WINTER PAD.
Worn as Protector Over Stockings.
But Of Startling Eject.

nut oi NlhIIiuR tHtcts
NEW YORK. Dec. Wearing fur
around her ankles was the weather
concession made to Sundays chilly
winds byy one fashionably dressed
woman. who evidently found the
blasts Of winter too severe for her
thin silk stockings and low cut
pumps. Every time she took a step
the strip of fur showed just above
her ankles and occasionally. as a
OF the thin stocking beyond the band
Of fur.
AS warmth producing article Of
apparel the effect of a band of skunk
or an anklet of ermine might have
been questioned, but as a startling
fashion novelty. the result was un-
mistakable Some thought IL was fur
trimming on an article of lingerie,
others pronounced II merely the ec-
centric idea of a faddist
Instantly feminine minds grasped
the possibilities OF the fur anklet.
They began to make mental combina-
tions of silken cobwebby stockings
with the varied fashionable furs. Sets
of purple hosiery with amber colored
furs. white stockings worn with black
fur anklets. or black with crmine
bands. cerise with warm anklets of
chinchilla or squirrel at once became
interesting effects in their eyes.
And now the question is. Will the
fad become a favorite with the sex
or will IL remain an eccentric novelty
OF the winter?

BACKACHE IS
A DANGER SIGNAL
Kidney Troubles, Bladder Disorders,
Rheumatism and Serious Dis
eases Follow.

The kidneys get clogged up, the same
as the bowels do Then they become
sluggish, and only filter or strain out a
part of the waste or poisonous matter
all the rest remaining in the blood and
poisoning the system.
As soon as YOU notice the first indi-
cations Of backache pains in the sides
or aches around the kidneys, or If the
urine is light and pale, dark eolored
cloudy. thick, or has an offensive odor
burns, is scalding or irregular in pas.
sage, take little Choxone three times a
day and end these troubles before they
become more serious.
There is no more effective remedy
known for the prompt relief and cure OF
kidney bladder troubles and rheuma-
tism, than Croxone. Il soaks right into
the kidneys through the walls and lin.
ing; cleans out the clogged up pores
neutralizcs and dissolves the poisonous
uric acid and waste matter that lodge
in the joints and muscles. and cause
those terrible rheumatic pains. and
makes the Kidneys filter the poison from
the blood and drive it out of the sys-
TEN.
A few days use of this new scientific
preparation is often all that is evei
needed to end the worst backache. OF
overcome the most annoying urinary
disorders.
You will find Croxone entirely differ.
ent from other remedies. It is SO pre-.
pared that it is practically impossible
to take it without results An original
