This is story whose sympathies
are as wide as the world. The des-
tinies of nations are interviewer with
the lives of the two heroes-one a
millionaire, pioneer of the Cecil
Rhodes type; the other diplomat,
with his finger on the pulse OF the
world. And the woman, like Cleo
patra, influences the careers OF en-
builders by her beauty and her
cleverness.
All those qualities OF deyouring in
terest which charmed a million OF men
and women in The Right OF Way
and THE Weavers' are even more
fully disclosed in this new work OF the
Masters hand.

Sensible Health Hints

With the approach of winter
Citv Health officer Marcellus
has issued a set Of winter health
hints for distribution 60 the
public. His suggestions are as
follows;
Not too heavy but warm
clothing.
Keep the feet dry better be
harefooted than with wet shoes
and stockings.
II perspiring freely, don't go
ont into cold or damp air
The house should be frequent
ly ventilated fresh air is Just
as essential in winter as IN
summer.
A sore throat no matter how
mild. should receive attention
it may be diptheria or scarlet
fever.
Closing the windows to keep
out colds merely serves 20 cause
colds. People who get plenty OF
fresh air seldom, If ever. are
troubled by colds.
Colds are infectious. When
YOU contract one be careful not
to pass il along.
The mother with cold should
not caress her children. The
cold is likely 10 be passed along.
The problem Of keeping the
house warm and the air pure is
a difficult one. Warmth is es.
sential, but pure air is more so,
The system of heating the house
should not include closing of the
windows.
If you enter a public or private
place that is hot, close and un'
ventilated, get out as quickly as
possible. The air i'm such a place
is freighted with poisons.
The necessity of keeping the
body clean is just as great in cold
weather as in warm.
Don't take a hot bath and then
go out Immediately into the cold
air.
Much, perhaps, most of cold
weather sickness is caused 10y
lack of proper exercise and
fresh air.

A BUSY WOMAN'S
SOCIAL DUTIES

nNE busy woman has a unique method
- of attending to social duties without
strain upon her time or energy. She
gives a large share Of credit to the tele-
phone. When the evening paper comes
III she scans the social columns for the
names of friends. If one is mentioned as
just returning from long trip or d
summers sojourn. she goes straight to
the phone and gives her cordial greet
ing. Any event of Importance in her
friends lives means a phone message
from her. for she finds it less formal
and quicker than writing note, and
has the appearance of more sincere in
terest. She does this early in the even
ing, when the call is not apt to be an
interruption, and when people are more
likely to be at home.
Another pretty practice Of this woman
is to send long-stemmed. beautiful
flower with her card. instead of making
a call. Well people love flowers as much
as sick people do, and another advan-
tage is that lady doesn't have to be IN
afternoon dress to receive either the
tie -ephone or the flower greeting. This
same woman remembers her trends fads
and tastes, and when reading q magazine
or newspaper she reads with half an
eve for them and half for herself, and
sends to friend a magazine or news
paper with an article marked which she
knows will appeal TO her interest Then
she does wholesale calling in summer.
One trip serves to see lot of friends
informally. and she never apologies for
not coming otherwise.
The telephone, the gift OF flower,
i choice seeds or cuttings. the loan OF
magazine or book the sidewalk call, the
| quick congratulations or words of SYM
pathy: all these things help to keep
friends without causing you anxiety,
time or trouble.
