GOOD ROADS FOR CHILDREN

Minors In Country at Disadvantage
Compared to Those in City.
Perfect children are the greatest
asset of humanity" said Mrs. Frank
De Garmo of st. Louis, in discussing
Good Roads and the Child Welfare
Movement" before the Northwestern
Road congress at the closing session
at Milwaukee. ut is indisputable,"
she said, that perfect roads are an
incaleuable asset in determining the
degree of mental, moral and physical
efficiency that a perfect child may at
tain"
Continuing, Mrs. De Garmo pointed
out that country children are at a de-
cided disadvantage in those respects
as compared to the children of the
cities, and that so per cent of the
country children stand feeble
chance of reaching the destiny to
which they are entitled.

MULTIPLE PERSONALITY.
One EngIishwoman Who Showed Five
Distinct Natures.

One EnQIIshWomsn VINO showed Five
Distinct Natures.
Rare cases of true multiple personal
ity are known TO have occurred and are
of extraordinary interest. The most
famous is that of Miss Beauchamp"-
the real name has always most prop
eriy been withheld-which WAS care
fully studied by DR.. Morton Prince.
BY intricate steps be arrived at the
conviction that In her case no fewer
than five distinct personalities could be
traced The most vivid Of all was the
one who called herself sally"
The normal Miss Beauchamp was
somewhat neurofc woman. the con-
slant prey of slight ailments aud with
out much zest in life. After nervous
shock Sally suddenly became able to
take possession of her from time to
time. at first with apparent difficulty
and then, as it seemed. whenever she
pleased. When Sally was dominant
Miss Beauchamp's whole nature was
changed. She became lively, irrespon-
sible. fond of all the violent exercises
which the normal woman disliked, exu-
nCdlLnJ OlhELGnL iIOn
Miss Beauchamp in every respect. She
could not explain herself. but protested
that she had always been here" but
could not get control, and one of the
most wonderful and best attested facts
in this mysterious case is that she con-
fdently asserted her memory of events
which occurred when the real Miss
Beauchamp was in her cradle.
For Miss Beauchamp, the co-tenant
with her of the same body. Sally had
the most intense dislike, never speak
ing of her except with contempt and
doing all she could to cause her harm
and annoyance. Miss Beauchamp had
special horror of insects and reptiles,
and Sally was accustomed to crafty
her spite by collecting frogs. toads and
spiders and dispatching them to what
the inadequacy of language compels us
to call herself.
Miss Beauchamp detested walking,
so Sally, when she was dominant,
would go for long tramp after care
fully leaving all her money behind, and
then, when she was ten miles or more
from home, would suddenly disappear
and, allowing the original Miss Beau
champ to assume control, leave the un-
fortunate woman to make her way
back as best she could.-London Globe.

Color Changes of the Hair.

Accounting for color changes of the
hair, it is explained that this change
is not due to destruction of pigment
present in the ,..lir or to bleaching OF
hairs already formed. but that pig
mented hairs fall out and are replaced
by unpigmented or white ones. Com
pletely pigmented hairs never turn
gray, they fall out. 1t has also been
observed that the process Of pigment
formation may cease during the de-
velopment of hair. In such case the
tip of the hair will remain pigmented
though the base appears wilhelm

LET THE SUNSHINE IN.

TT pays to wear a smiling face
And laugh our troubles down,
For all our little trials wait
Our laughter or our frown.
Beneath the magic of a smile
Our doubts will fade away,
AS melts the frost in early spring
Beneath the sunny ray.
It pays to make a worthy cause,
BY helping it. our own;
To give the current of our lives
A true and noble tone.
1t pays to comfort heavy hearts
Oppressed with dull despair
And leave in sorrow darkened lives
A CLEAN Of brightness there
1t pays to give helping hand
To eager, earnest youth:
To note. with all their waywardness.
Their courage and their truth;
To strive with sympathy and love
Their confidence to win.
1t pays to open wide the heart
And let the sunshine in.
