Most women dislike change. They are
afraid to take a chance also. But the

| "Stenography and typewriting Is the

thusiasm In Miss Coles voice was enough
! to make one throw up ones chosen career
and Immediately begin studying the
curious little hieroglyphlcs with which
one takes dictation," but the mistake
that women make is in stopping there"
That Miss Cole did not stop there Is
obvious not only from the present pre-
eminent job that sne holds down, but
likewise from her conversation. She
quotes Arnold Bennett at you and she
quotes Maxim Gorky and when she can
better express what she wants to say
with Shakespearean quotation or Mil
tonian one she up and uses 1t. Her edu-
cation, should say, in contradiction,
most decidedly did not stop at the little
red schoolhouse.
When 1 knew stenography and type
writing" she continued, putting back a.
strand of her luxuriant iron-gray hair,
II studied bookkeeping from the head
bookkeeper of the office where 1 was
employed. This broadened my field and
made 1t possible for me to be in charge
of an office; 1t gave me the opportunity to
exercise executive ability. 1t is the re-
sponsble jobs that pay"
For IL years Miss Cole has been with
the Gillette people, watching and helping
their advertising business grow from
$780, the first annual expenditure, to $780,
900. Since the war even the continental
advertlsing-that of Germany, France,
Norway Sweden and Russia-plus that Of
England goes through her hands. Her

Miss Coles friends tell me that she is |
truly a wonderful woman-as If I hadn't |
guessed that-and that If she had saved |
money she would be wealthy woman to- |
day instead of just high salaried one.
She has preferred, however. to put her
money in a different kind of bank. Help

hobby. 1t costs money sometimes. But, |
of course, being wonderful woman. she
would tell me nothing about that.

NEW BULLET EXTRACTOR.
(London Tines

(LOndOn Times)
The war has brought into being
many ingenious pieces of apparatus
designed 10 aid the surgeon in his
difficult work Some Of these in
struments are much too complicated
TO be described in the pages of a lay
journal. but there are others the
value OF which can be appreciated
readily by any one
Among these is a bullet extractor,
introduced with the object of IA
/ ciEtating what is often a tedious
and difficult operation. In the first
I place, the operation is performed
/ in the dark. the bullet being visible
by the shadow thrown by Xrays. In
the second place. the bullet must
| be removed with the least posi- bic
danger of injury TO important struc-
lures. In the third place. the oper-
| alton Of removal must be made as
/ easy as practicable.
The first object has been secured
/ by fitting a fiuorescent screen TO the
apparatus in such a manner that, If
/ the Xray tube be placed under the
/ table and the room darkened, the
! shadow Of the bullet and the points
/ Of the forceps will be visible con-
| tinuously. But the solution Of one
| difficulty in this case raises another
that of the darkened room. Cut
| ting instruments cannot be used un-
/ less the surgeon can see what is
! doing, and as this instrument has
to work in the dark it is construct
ed with a blunt point that Will work
| it's way down between appreciable
! damage, pressing structures aside
rather than through them.
A very powerful pair of forceps
is necessary to grip and extract a
! bullet, and a great deal of damage
might be done If something that was
not seen, perhaps an artery or a
nerve. was picked up along with the
| bullet. Accordingly the blades of
| the forceps are attached to an cleo
! trio bell which only rings when both
the blades are touching the bullet.
| Therefore, if the bell is made to
| grasp the bullet, and if the bell con-
/ tlnues 10 ring when the bullet is
seized, nothing else can have been
| picked up besides the bullet, and
f, there is no danger in pulling it out
! The surgeon using this instrument
can therefore not only see what he
is doing, but, by means Of the bell,
he has a very accurate sense OF

HE WAS DIFFERENT.
Grand Rapids Herald.)

Americans in general have a
sneering notion that every Mexican
is at heart a coward When it comes
to a real showdown" we expect
the Mexican 20 show his yellow
streak" But the other day a
greaser" hero gave his life in an
attempt to save a party Of American
women from the Villa bandits in
the raid on Columbus, \. NJ.
Jose Pereyra was the Carranza
consul at Columbus From the pop
ular impression of a "greaser" we
expected to hear that Pereyra had
disappeared after the first shot was
fired. The newspaper report told
Of the finding of Pereyra's body
just over the border in Mexico, but
he wasn't killed while fleeing from
the bandits.
According to Mrs. w. l.. Richie,
an American woman whose husband
was killed before her eyes by the
Villa raiders. Pereyra stood between
a number OF American women and
a group of the bandits as they in
vaded a Columbus hotel. Don't
shoot; we are all Mexicans here, -
he called out in an attempt To save
the white women. But the murder
ers refused to believe him, and when
the lie was discovered Pereyra was
dragged away.
Had he been willing to stand aside
while those white women were MUIR
dered or captured Pereyra undOubt-
edly would have been living today
He preferred to risk his life, and
it is probable that the short delay
which his effort caused saved the
women, as a force of American sol
diers arrived in time to drive the
bandits off. But they took Pereyra
with them.
There are heroes of every color
and every race, but they never are
found under a leader who encour-
ages murder and proclamation OF
womanhood.

There is absolutely no element Of

everybody with a five-year memory

that Theodore Roosevelt was not

unfortunate knack Of making enc

servative, and the democrats are
watching the outcome with interest.
Pres't Wilson'S warmest supporters
would rather see Roosevelt in the
fight than Hughes whose qualities
are very like those OF the present
chief executive. II would not be
Roosevelt unless he berated his op-
ponents soundly and he is now turn
ing the vials OF his wrath on the
