- Compliment Mrs. J. A. Graham.

Decidedly one OF the most elabor-
ate and beautiful social events of the
season in Columbia was the rock par
~ of Mrs. A. E. Wells, which was
given in the recreation room of the
institute Tuesday afternoon from 8
70 G o'clock. The hall was very at
tractive in spring flowers, such as tu-
Inns, narcissus, ferns, and old garden
flowers.
Rock was played at eleven tables.
After the game was over, score or
more of other guests dropped in to
call and partake of the delicious re-
freshments. During the game deli
cious grape punch was served by the
representatives of the two sororities,
Misses Sybil Wilkinson and Florence
Stainback.
The refreshments were exceedingly
attractive. They were orange souf-
file and angel food cake. The cakes
were decorated with narcissus, and
the general color scheme, to carry
out the motif of the other decorations
was yellow.
One of the most delightful features
of the entertainment was the musica
program that was rendered during
the serving of the refreshments
Miss Louise Dortch gave beautiful
violin selection, while Miss Marjorie
Clark gave a charming solo in ex
quisite voice.

Seven Varieties of Files.

Seven different varieties of flies
are found in our houses, SO per cent
of which are represented by the COM
mon housef1y. Flies lay their eggs
only in fermenking or decaying sub,
stances-by preference in manure,
Hence every stable is a center of in.
lection unless periodically disinfected.
The fly maggot is also Matched out in
1atrines and ashpit refuse, such as
bedding, straw, rags, paper, scraps of
meat, fruit, ETC., on which substances
the larvae subsist after they hatch,
which occurs in about twelve days
after the egg has been laid. 1t is
estimated that a single fly, laying 100
eggs at time, will produce q progeny
amounting TO sextillions by the end
of the season.
The numbers of bacteria upon a
single fly have been proved to range
all the way from $50 to 100000. The
average for Ala flies which were ex-
amined at the agricultural experiment
station at Storrs, Conn, was 100000
bacteria apiece. This represents about

HAVE NOT SAME VIEWPOINT
Logic and Argument Mean One Thlna
to Man and Another to
Woman.

Logic" is the rock on which the
Views of man and woman split. He
knows" that she is inconsistent. she
that he argues only for the Joy Of hear
Ing his own wisdom. Each knows
that convincing the other Is a gift
not granted by the high gods unto
mortals. But the knowing fails to
keep them from debating until debate
threatens to degenerate into wrangling
and feminine tears and masculine
vehemence OF expression bid them
cease.
Each Is right and both are wrong.
Man refuses to be convinced, woman
Is incapable of being convinced. The
source of the difficulty lies In the fact
that logic and argument, like truth.
mean one thing to him and another to
her. Man enjoys argument, the pit
ting OF wits against wits and power
versus strength, even If he be worsted,
but woman dislikes it instinctively,
even II she prove winner. The rea-
son Is that he Is born for battle and
self-assertion, she for peace, whose
essence is seif-denial, If not self-efface-
ment.
To man argument is good deal of
a mental game of chess, to woman 1t
is an earnest clash Of two personali-
ties.
Man will wage wordy warfare with
man over the merits of a point of
honor or those of a security. and put
the best of him into the intellectual
and verbal duel, and not seldom lose
his temper for the moment or the
hour; but when the war of words 10
over he thrusts tie affair behind him,
has no personal feeling as regards his

he withstood. But woman argues

In regard to such problems as poll
tics, religion or virtue and takes the
matter with terrible seriousness as

understands these qualities, makes the

of personality.

RepalrIna Fractured Hearts.

Thirty-one patients in a Russian
hospital have recovered from stab
wounds of the hearti
Doctor Zlidler says the patients were
put under the influence of ether very
soon after the injury, part of the
chest wall was removed, the heart
lifted from it's bed and the stitches
quickly introduced between pulsa-
tions. The bony chest wall over the
heart was not put back in place, that
organ being left covered only by skin
and muscle. This was done to give
the heart room to expand and to pre-
vent adhesions from embarrassing the
hearts action. Several of the patients
have resumed their usual employment.
The probable reason for the success
of the experiment was prompt and
rapid operation.

HOPE FOR THE NUDE-PATED
Naked Domes, Scene Of Fly Tango
Parties, Are Made to Sprout
Hair.

Bald heads, cheer up; BARRIERS, re-
joice. Curly locks are to sprout from
the barest dome ever fly tangoed on.
AS "the good men come from
Glo'ster," so the good news comes
from Boston, that extraordinary city
which is the home of the succulent
bean and virginia's only rival in the
family tree business.
The great discovery was made. in
Massachusetts General hospital. Men
have gone in with their scalps as nude
as Mont Blanc and come out for

club.
Mayor Walter Wardwell Of Cam
bridge was among the first to try the
new system. The mayor was not en-
tirely bald, but had patch on the
back of his head that looked like
moths in sealskin. That spot is now
the site for scalp lock that would
make even the best Of Indians back
slider If he once saw 1t.
Rubbing the scalp with a Turkish
towel is the principal part of the
treatment. This is done at regular
intervals and Systematically followed
up.
Bald men hate to be bald. Every
body makes fun of them. Mosquitoes
hold banquets on their craniums. The
sun beats mercilessly down upon the
bald spots of just and unjust alike.
Not a victim but will gladly rub the
skin off his pate to raise few bull
rushes there.
DR.. Jacob B. Bruce, Jr., Of the out
patients department of the hospital
claims that the system will grow
whiskers on a cake of ice and that
the man who is laughed at today for
rubbing his scalp till it is as red as
a beet will tomorrow have crop of
hair that would make a wild man OF
Borneo jealous.
Special treatment is necessary In
each case, according to the particular
i'll affecting the subject. Doctor Bruce
declared that badness is a symptom
of disease, and the fundamental trou-
BILE must be cured before the Turkish
towel rubbing shows any effect. Sick
men must be cured; thinkers must
stop thinking, sinners must reform.

farmer named Cyrus Whifie, who has

bearing ore, and dumped some of the
pieces in the drinking fountain used

AS a result, according to Whifle,
the water became strongly radioactive,
the hens drank 1t, and their eggs pro-
duction almost doubled. Many OF the
hens began laying two eggs daily.
Whiffie says that his entire family,
since beginning to eat the radioactive
eggs have gained steadily In strength
