PAINT AND THE WOMEN OF KANSAS

bill has just been introduced in the Kansas
Legislature providing that women under TO years
old who wear earrings treat their faces with
cosmetics " for the purpose of creating false i'm
preston" guilty of misdemeanor and upon
conviction be fined The proposed law goes
further and specifies face powder, perfumes false
hair and hair bleaching materials as among articles
women are forbidden to use
We cannot help admiring the man who intro
duced that law. We do not admire him for his
wisdom, for evidently he is not endowed with any
very great amount of that valuable asset, but we
must concede he is possessed of rare amount of
fortitude.
Doubtless most of the Kansas women never think
of painting their faces, but in Kansas as in every
other state, there are lots of women who do Some
of them put it on" so thick that there is no mis-
taking the fact that they buy their complexions at
the drug store while others have the skillful art
of applying just enough to keep even their dearest
girl friends guessing whether they actually use the
stuff or have natural bloom to their cheeks
1t is the presence of the latter class of women in
Kansas that convnces that the father of the bill
referred to is very bold law-maker. In the first
place, what method is he going to suggest for prov

their faces actually guilty of such misde-
meanor? Surely it would be altogether impracti-

ESKIMoS AS TRADERS
Value Counts as Nothing If They See
ANYTHING They Want

Among the Eskimos of the Bering
sea region there is no fixed value for
whalebone, furs or anything they may
have to trade. If one of them has
anything of value he will keep it until
some white man appears with some
thing that appeals to his eye. And
the money value of what may take
him does not make any difference to
him. If he has tr-inket that may be
worth a dollar and some one offers to
give MIN fer it something that is worth
thousand dollars. but of which he
has no need, he will refuse to trade.
But he will give anything he possesses
for what he really wants.
