AS TO DIRT AND DISEASE
Words Have Been Considered Synony-
nous, but Science Has Proved
the Contrary.

Fathers and mothers lucky enough
to have both boys and girls know how
clean the girls keep themselves and
how the boys disregard dirt. From
earliest childhood the little girls
hands and face are washed, and she
evades dress stains, combs her hair
and tries to look nice. But every
normal boy, up to the age of fourteen,
revels in dirt and looks forward to the
Saturday night bath with virtuous con-
tempt or dread. But boys do not suf-
fer infectious diseases as much as
girls. This was brought out in an in
vestigation made of $500 children of
all ages and sexes. We requested the
mothers themselves to report what
diseases their children had had. Girl
had had more infections than boys of
the same age. This goes to support
the modern view that dirt and disease
have no necessary relation. 1t is not
the dirt boys revsl in that does harm.
1t is the germs in other peoples
bodies that should be dreaded The
girls encounter infection more than
the boys because they are more So
ciable, meet other children more, and
associate with them more intimately
than boys do."-Doctor HILL

COURTESY ON TELEPHONE
No Reason Why IL Should Be Forgot
ten Because One May Be
In a Hurry.

81 thought the telephone was most
informal instrument" objected one
girl to another who had spoken of tel
ephone etiquette.
etiquette" said the other, lis SIM
ply courtesy, and naturally one can be
as courteous over the telephone as
anywhere else, but how many Of us
are?"
1t certainly is exasperating to be
given a wrong number; but to speak
In sharp, angry tone to the person
who answers the phone under such
circumstances is as unjust as ii is i'm
polite. Instead of rudely requesting
him to ring off," you should say, 81
beg your pardon" as If you really
meant 1t.
Many women have an exasperating
way of asking, "Who is this?" when
someone answers their call whose
voice they do not recognize. Always
ask for the person you want to speak
to, and mention who wants her.
In talking to business people be
brief as possible, for their time is
valuable. Girls who have the tele-
phone habit should be made to realize
that it is most embarrassing for en-
ployees to be called to the phone dur
ing business hours unless the message
is very important, and that an en-
ployer is not pleased to say the least,
when he sees his clerks wasting his
time talking social matters over the
telephone.
Don't impose upon your friends
good nature by telephoning from
house or Office without offering to pay
for the call. Above all else, when you
phone "cut it short" 1t is difficult to
realize that pleasure can be had from
gossiping into hole in the wall, but il
is temptation to many. Say what
you have to say and get through with
it. Don't keep the wire occupied with
aimless chatter when, perhaps, it is
urgently needed for an important mes
sage.

Helpful SUGGESTION,

The costumier came forward to at
tend to the nervous old beau who was
hopping his bald and shining poll with
a big silk handkerchief.
"And what can l do for your" he
asked.
Il want little help in the way Of a
suggestion" said the old fellow. 81
intend going TO the French students
masquerade ball tonight, and want a
distinctly original costume - some
thing / may be sure no one else will
wear. What would you suggest?"
The costumier looked him over at
tentively. bestowing special notice on
the cleaning mob.
'Well, I'll tell YOU" he said then,
thoughtfully, why don't you sugar
your head and go as a pill?"-Tid-Bits

Have a Good Bed.

In Farm and Fireside contributor,
writing practical article about mat
tresses and other provisions for beds,
makes the following general comment:
"In furnishing home the housewife
should give most careful thought to
the beds and their equipment. We
spend at least third of our lives in
bed, and It is worth while to make
that third pleasant and refreshing. The
best mattresses and springs are none
too good when one is storing up
strength for some work. Besides. as is
the case with most household pur.
chases, the best are really the cheap
