"Have you any jujubes to-
day?"
This may be the housewives
query to the corner grocery man
In the near future as result of
discovery made by one Of I'm
Gle Sans plant experts on re-
cent expedition into China.
This expert found the jujube
tree which bears a heavy crop Of
brOwnish fruit that, when
fresh, Is declared to be deli
cious, and when dried, offers a
CONNECTION very similar In taste
to the Persian date.
The section In which II Is pro-
ductive in China Is a semi-arid
belt where winter temperatures
do not go much below zero Fab
renheit. This indicates that 1t
would be Of particular value to
Texas, California, New Mexico,
Arizona, southern Utah, and per-
haps even farther north. Al
ready, several thousand seed
lings have been grown at the
plant Introduction garden at
Chico, CAL, from the specimens
sent to this country, and some
Of these have borne desirable
fruit, which confirms the expert
mentors In their belief that this
tree may contribute a new fruit
industry to the sections indi-
Gated.

might be a good Idea to take the pub
lie into its confidence on public health
matters.
Some Of the results are remarkable.
In 1912 the service published and sent
out 100000 scientific publications. In
1915 the service sent out more than
100000 publications, both scientific
and popular-but mainly popular-to
individuals all over the United States.
And 1915 will break the record again.
A year ago Doctor Fuckers division
began sending out q Health News"
bulletin to few newspapers that
wanted It. Today 5000 daily and
weekly newspapers get this bulletin.
When the outbreak Of infantile paraly-
sis occurred in New York the public
health service wrote up bulletin tell
ing what the public could do to help
prevent the spread Of the malady. The
bureau had $4,000 requests for this lit
tie bulletin.
Nobody in the United States with a
two-cent postage stamp need be ignor-
ant Of how flies breed, how they carry
disease, how to screen a house and
how to prevent the breeding Of flies.
The service still writes scientific
bulletins. Specialists work in its lab
oratories and statisticians figure out
mortality and morbidity rates. Highly
technical articles are prepared for
physicians ED health officials all over
the country,
But everything It does now Is re-
written in popular form for the lay
man. The service had adopted the slo-
gan that disease prevention means get
ting rid Of the causes, and getting rid
Of causes requires education Of the
public to know the causes.
Four years ago scarcely anybody In
the country knew there was such a
thing as a public health service. To-
day II IL one Of the best-known and
most useful branches Of the govern
ment establishment. And the year
1915 showed the lowest mortality rate
the United States has ever had, 1876
per 1000 population, the year 1914
holding the previous low record, 1915

YOUR TONGUE SHOWS you UP
tiers by Size and Shape Of
Their Tongues.

'Put out your tongue" Is phrase
associated in most peoples minds with
doctors, and is usually reminiscent of
minor ailments and nasty medicines ;
spoken BY glossomancist, however,
the curt command takes on an alto
gether different significance.
A glossomancist, 1t may be as well
to explain, Is professor of glosso-
nancy, q new science which consists
in reading peoples characters by the
shape and size of their tongues.
Thus, according to its votaries, the
possessor of a short and broad tongue
Is apt to be untruthful as to words,
and unreliable as to deeds. A long
tongue moderately pointed, denotes
frankness and loving, trustful, of.
fectionate disposition. When the
tongue is long and broad, however, II
Is sign that the owner is shallow
and superficial, and also great talk
er. The typical woman gossip, say
glossomancists, almost always shows
this shape, Of tongue.
The small round tongue, plump and
In shape like an oyster, denotes
mediocre abilities and a nature that
is commonplace and colorless. A
short, narrow tongue goes with ma.
ture that is at once quick-tempered.
The worst type Of tongue is said to
be the long, narrow. sinuous kind
what glossomancists call the "snake
tongue" Its possessors are very like
ly to be cruel, sly, vindic.ive and de
ceitful.
