Since then I've looked at many people

is true in practically every case.
The majority look much better in

many simply look different. ! suppose
this Is due to some flaw in the mirror.
But 1t seems to be true of all of them.

that we really never know just how we

our friends out there In Oklahoma
begged him to run for seat in the
house on the ground that the cam
paigning necessary to win that cleo
ton would be comparatively light,

him to announce for the senate. And
he did"
AS soon as her husbands candidacy
for the senate was announced, Mrs.
Gore moved her sewing machine out
Of the sewing room and turned this
place into an office and went about
her new Job of campaign manager In
a perfectlp business like way. Until
he had been elected to q seat in the
senate, Mr.. Gore used the little sew
ing room as campaign headquarters
Needless to say. when her husband
was elected to the United States sem
ate, Mrs. Gore was the proudest and
happiest individual, his mother not
excepted, in the state OF Oklahoma.
It is safe to surmise that Mrs. Gore
is the only statesman's wife In WASH
ington who has read as much political
economy as her husband. and 1t goes
without saying that she has read more
weighty books than any other woman
in Washington. During the years of
their married life she has been reader
to Senator Gore, who sees the world
largely through his wifes eyes. This
may be the reason why 1t seems to

A coMMON-SENSE RACE

A race around the world in an aero plane for a hundred thousand dollar prize is one to stir the imagination A race to the moon and back for million dollar prize would be even more eX- sitting.

DID YOU HEAR THAT LIGHT?
If You Did Not, Your Hearing May
 Be Somewhat Defective

Ii is no unusual thing to see ray of light: but have you ever heard one? Recent experiments prove that a beam of light can, under certalh conditions, produce perfectly clear and distinct sounds
 A ray of sunlight is thrown through A lens on a glass vessel that con tains lampblack, colored silk or worsted. A disk with slits or open ings cut in it is made to revolve swiftly in this beam of light. so as to 'cut it up,' and cause alternate flashes of light and shadow. When you place you ear to the glass Nessei vou hear strange sounds as long as the flashing beam falls upon the vessel.
 1 A still more extraordinary effect 1 is produced when the beam of sun- light is made to passthrough a prism l SD as to produce the solar spectrum. The disk is turned rapidly and the !, colored light of the rinbow breaks through it and falls on the glass vessel. Now if you place your ear to the glass you will hear sounds from certain parts of the spectrum
 but none from the others.
 For example, if the vessel contains
 red Worsted and the green Hgh
 flashes upon it quite loud sounds

 sounds will be heard when the rec

Tails H0w To Ride And Keep Clean

Probably more travelling sales men would ride motorcycle II they only realized that even while rlding vou can dress like a gentleman anu i keen clean" says G. B. Rousch of the Whitaker Paper Comapny, of Cin- cinnati. Ohio.
 Mir Rousch travels in Kentucky with headquarters at Lexington, anu he makes his entire route on mo torcvcle. When on the road Rousch wears a loose fitting khaki suit over his business suit. This keeps all dust and dirt from his clothes. so that when he arrives at his destlna- tion and slips off the. outer garment he appears before his customers or prospective customers much cleaner than if he had travelled by tram.
 Mir. Rousch finds the motorcycle a great time saver. A great deal of hls territory is comprised of small towns with very poor railway facllitles. Travelling by train. he would only be able to visit one or two towns m a day, while with the two wheeler he is able to make a half-dozen or more The motorcycle saves Rousch many exasperating waits for trains the long drives from stations to the small villages which have no railway service, and the frequent necessity 0, stopping at third-class hotels. With the wo-wheeler, if he finds himself at dusk in 8. town with practically no hotel accommodations, he car jump in the saddle and within ar hour or so ride to a town where h' will receive better service.
 In addition to the saving of tim money and many unpleasant circum stances, Rousch declares that tn motorcycle enables him to double hi earning capacity. and the healthfu outdoor exercise keeps him in tip-to condition at all times.
