THE 1TTrIE GRAIN OF SAND.
tBy Virginia vale.)

Once upon a time there was a grain of sand that lived with lots of others on beautiful beach. It ought to have been very happy. but instead of that it was very unhappy and made all of the rest discontented.
 'fWhy don't you try and be cheerful D. asked an old grain of sand. You have everything you want and see lots of people, "I want to see the world and other things beside this old beach, replied the little grain
 One day the wind blew very hard and it picked up the little grain of sand and started off with it. 'tGood- bye friends I am going into the world. shall see and do great things. Good bye" and off it flew right in to the eye of man who was passing. He was running for a train ana as he ran he tried to rub out the sand
 but the sand had made up its mind to stay right there if it could and So get away. The man and the grain of sand got on the train and rode and rode for long time. At last the man wiped his eye with his hand kerchief and the grain of sand was wiped out into it.
 There it stayed until the man got to his home and then it was thrown into a hot dark place with lot of other things. Oh,- how it wished it was back on the nice cool beach with the rest. At last it was taken away
 by a big man and carried a. long way | off and thrown into a, corner. What was going to happen now?
 All at once it was shaken out into some water and as it looked arolan q | it saw there some strange men with queer looking clothes on and very long hair done in braids. Where was he and what would happen? Another man came with some brown looking things in his hands. He put them
 beside him and then went and got a pretty bowl. Tn this he put some stones and some sand, then the brown | things that were beside him. What was he going to do now?
 He was coming toward the sand grain and, yes, he was taking up his
 dish Of water and pouring it into the bowl Of stones and sand and in
 went the grain and slipped down among a lot of his friends. Some of them knew him and called out: How do you do? Did you have a pleasant trip?''
 He asked if they knew where he was and they said. 'rYes, we are go- ing to stay here a little while and so will you" The bowl was set in the sun in a pleasant window where they saw the little children going back and forth from school The children of ten stopped f6 look at the bowl and

I figure, this does not mean that there is only one model. On the contrary, each designed to suit the varied types of women, which include the tall, the short, the slender, the stout those long waisted and those unduly short. Then there are models to suit those who possess a prominent abdomen or protruding hips, designed, too, with view to conceal defects and bring out the best points of the wearer. Clearly, then. it is possible for any woman Hv- ing however remotely from stores, to get a corset that will give satisfaction in comfort and style, if she only knows what to ask for Very ofteo she does not, chiefly for the reason that she has never given the subject the proper consf iteration.
 Beginning with the stout figure the type iii special need or heIp--I | should say first find out to which type you belong, the f1abby fat, or are you in the stout class whose flesh is hard and firm? F1abby women, as d rule, require stiffer corsets than those whose flesh is firm. The taller type will often be able to wear a corset of thin batiste. just lightly boned. dur ing warm weather or for evenings, while the habby person would find such corset uncomfortable because when the strings were pulled in the
 flesh would give to the soft material Then the bones would press into th5 skin and cause pain. In fact, where the strings were pulled very tight the , bones could cut into the flesh.
 Couti1Ie fitted with medium bones will be very much better because it provides some of the Ermness the dabby flesh lacks. Tine corset is stip- porting and comfortable.
 In fitting a corset a We11-shaped back is the first essential, and while [ am not over enthusiastic about the front lace corset I must admit the model gives a perfect back. Being fitted there without lacings, one may always feel sure there is no tight line at the top of the corset. When one faces the corset in the back a ridge is apt to be created, showing bulging shoulders above-T1ot a pleasing sight by any means. Still, thanks to the comfortable and hygienic straight front corset, there is no necessity for an unsiyhtIy back, even though the corset laces there, for undue flesh ca11 be nodded toward the front and lie comfortably between the, waist and bust lines if the top line of the cor- set is left fairly loose.
 Another class of stout women are those who are very full under the arms, but only medium size in bust and chest, a spread figure, as it is called. These women need a corset a little higher under the arms than at other points, and I have seen three short cross bones sewed on to the top at these points with very good effect.

THE EVOLUTION or
 THE TOOTH BRUSH

Not many years ago4 a toothbrush ~as just a toothbrush with a white bone handle into which were set four ar five rows of white 5br1st1es. Itfwas used once day, then placed in a glass of water to remain unt2lT a1Bed again Tn fact, the toothbrushe@ 7of the entire family were often placed in the same glass of water. Makes you smile now, doesn't it, but in years gone by it made a great many cry with toothachs- By means fof the socfabIe. though unsan1tary fanily toothbrush holderStooth a1lnents were transferred from one member of a family to all thea rest.
 People then used to brush across the front teeth to keep them white, Never mind the back teeth, they did not count But in time they learned that back teeth did count, that brush ing across the teeth wasn't the best way. that a toothbrush was about the most personal, of cme's belongings and should not be let stray, to come back with all the tooth ills of the family secreted among its brfst1es.
 The Iuanufacturers of brushes be- gan then to experiment. The brush was invented with a handle curved most comfortably for.use on the back teeth Next came the one that didn't shed bristies, then sizes were graded from the brush for baby to grandpa, who today often has sound and healthy teeth
 Now comes what we have needed but didn't realize the need Of it. It is a toothbrush cleausr. These can be bought at the drug store at prices from a couple of cents up. They clean the brush after use, and thus leave it free from particles of food that might possibly Sbe brushed back into the teeth again.
 If you cannot obtain this brush.

BREAKS HIS PROMISES

Dear Miss IAbbevs
 I ann a young gdrl G8) years old. Am in Love with a young man two years my senior. He IS very pleasant with me when we are together. Goes away, promising to come back a cer- tain time, but does not come unless I write him to. My parents approve or my choice Please advise me.
 MYRTIE E. Some think a promise, like a pie crust, is easily broken But to one is1Hao sits by the window, watches and waits long evenings fors the steps which never come, it is annoying to say the least. He who breaks prom ises of this tender regard is apt to forfeit the good opinion of a dear girl he might have won some day. His excuses may have warranted absence but not very often

there is d substitute, though probably not so good. Buy the chenille cov- cred wire sold at tobacco stores for pipe cleaners, and clean your tooth brush with it in the manner shown in the picture. But daily clean your toothbrush you must, if you would keep stefo fashions in hygiene.

Dear Miss Libbey:
 I am. a. young girl of thirteen years in love with a. boy of fourteen years. He wants to take me to a picnic Sat- JarSaay. Do you think it would be wrong for me to go with him?

TRUST BILLS
BEFORE MARCH |
Committees Map Out the Work--Cum-
Minis Would Extend the Powers
of Trade Board.

Washington, Feb. 2.--Winding up a
week of consideration of the admin.
istration's antitrust legislative program
members of committees of the House
and Senate predicted Saturday that the
bills suggested in President Wilson,
message would be ready for Congress
before March !. Hearings before the
House Judiciary and interstate commerce
committees it was announced would not
be prolonged, and the Senate interstate
commerce committee, with the approval
of the president, would receive sugges-
tons by mail from men interested in
the subject, instead of conducting form
al hearings.
Besides working on the interstate
trade commission bill and drafting meas
ures to supplement the Sherman anti
trust act, the committees have two 9TH
er important matters to dispose of.
These are:
To draft bill giving the interstate
commerce commission supervision of the
issue of railroad securities.
To draft an amendment to the trade
relations bill which would prohibit hold
ing companies.
Members of the House interstate COM
meree commission, headed by Represent
ative Adamson of Georgia, are already
at work on the railroad securities bill
and the Senate committee considered this
subject Saturday, Chairman Newlands
being authorized to get together all bills
ON the subject.
Republican members of the Senate in
terstate commerce committee showed ac-
tive interest in the trust bills Saturday
and Senator Cummins of Iowa offered
several amendments to the trade COM
mission bill which would extend its pow
ers. Democratic members believed the
proposed trade commission should not be
granted any administrative authority.
Besides giving the trade commission
authority to regulate the size of cor
porations, Senator Cummins proposed
amendments which would also empower
it ito determine whether any person or
corporation is violating the law with re-
spect to sales below actual cost for the
purpose of inficting injury upon COM
petitor, and whether any corporation is
violating the law with respect to the
amount of its capitalization as com
pared with the value of its property"

CASSIDY DENIES
TAKING MONEY
"Wouldn't Feel Natural Without Roll
of Bills" Says Graft
Witness.

| New York, Feb. 2.--Joseph Cassidy
took the stand ia his own defense Sat,
urday in his trial on the charge of ac.
cepting a bride from William Willett
| jr., former member Of Congress, who
was convicted week ago of buying a
supreme court nomination in 1911.
| The sentence of Willett, which was to
have been passed Saturday, was de.
ferred until to-day.
Cassidy, until recently Queens county
Democratic leader, denied he received
money from either Willett or Louis I.
Walter, jr., who is on trial with Cassidy
as the alleged go-between. As for Will
let's nomination, Cassidy said it was
brought about properly Mt conference
of Queens county delegates to the judi
ciary convention.
Regarding his bank deposits, aggre.
eating about $4,000 and made about
the time Willett was nominated, Cas-
sidy explained that some of the money
deposited was obtained for campaign
uses and some was the result OF real
estate deals. Asked under cross.exam-
ination if he was accustomed OF carry
about such large sums as he displayed
during the Judiciary campaign, Cassidy
replied:
IF / didn't have roll of bills with
me, | wouldn't feel natural
District Attorney James C. Cropsey of
Kings county appeared unable TO shake
Cassidy's story. Cassidy's testimony
was interrupted Saturday night by adj
journment, and he will take the stand
again o-day.
That the case did not go to the jury
Saturday, as had been anticipated, was
because of lengthy conferences to decide
whether waiver of immunity given by
Walter before his examination by the
committing magistrae two years ago
still held good.
Supreme Court Justice Waller Jaycox
ruled that the waiver was binding for
all time. This point was brought up as a
result of Walters appearance against
his own wishes as witness for the
prosecution in Willett's trial. His coun.
sci had claimed the original waiver did
not hold in the present trials.
Ii was thought Saturday night that
Willett would not take the stand
against Cassidy and Walter.
