Women's Lives Are
Growing Longer

Women are living longer than they
did rs years ago, but the doctors
aren't agreed on the reason. Though
all admit it isn't due to the spread of
the suffrage movement, they are
widely divided in their opinions
about it.
Statistics compiled in England
show that the expectation of life OF
a woman Of so is a year greater
than 1t was in 1878, while that of
man is only few months greater
One school of doctors, who believe
that death is due entirely to a wear

the greater longevity of women is
due to tire fact that they don't use
their brains as much as men.

A game that always induces gales

is that of relating partnership
story The leader is seated in the
middle of the room with small
bell and a waite hon a table at his
side. The player at the end of the
lines begins to tell story and
continues for three minutes, at the
end of which time the leader rings
the bell. and the narrator is obliged
to stop at once, no matter if he is
in the middle of a sentence or even
of word. The next one takes it
up at the exact point at which it
has broken off and continues the
tale. to be stopped in the same way.
Naturally, the story will be non
sensical, a feature which creates
all the more merriment
. Progressive conversation is an
other good game. Everybody is
given card with some half a
dozen subjects of conversation writ
ten thereon A bell is runs. and a
man choosing his partner discusses
with her the first subject written on
the card. At the end of five minutes
the bell rings again, new partners
are chosen and the next subject is
taken up. 1t goes on in this way
until all the subjects have been
talked over

One woman who lives in fash
