Man craZed by any kind of mental

have been boon to humanity in some

This perfect girl was discovered
through an innocent query asking
how many Venuses there might be in
Savannah, following a recent agitation
among the colleges of the country to
find a woman of perfect proportions
as compared with the measurements
of the Milo Venus, generally accepted
as the standard of perfection. :
She Likes to Stay at Home.
Miss Litman has much in common
with the ancient lady in Louvre be-
sides her figure. From all obtain
able contemporary accounts Mrs. We
nus was what one might call a do
mesticated lady, fond of staying at
home and mending Hephaetus' san-
dals, and she was neither modern for
her time nor a suffraget. Neither is
the Venus of Savannah a suffraget OF
any shade, militant or otherwise. She
states emphatically that she has No
desire to vote, and a place in her home
is joy enough for her.
81 just want to live and be happy,1
she says, land it doesn't matter to me
not. 1 like to dance and / like ath-
letics- I belong to a girls basketball
team and 1 take exercise regularly. I
am glad that my proportions are so
nearly perfect. Any girl would be
proud to know that she is physical1y
normal"
Brothers Found 1t Out.
Miss Litman had never imagined
that she was anywhere near the meas
urements of the famous lady of the
| Louvre. and had spent some time won-
dering who in Savannah Would prove
to be nearest the ancient Greek stand
ard, when she was persuaded by her
brothers to compare her measures
ments with those of other claimants
to feminine perfection, just for the fun
of the thing. Imagine her surprise
when she found that she was herself =
perfect Venus.
Her Measurements
Here are the comparative measure.

COLORS IN SHIRTS
This Is a Year of Flashy Ef-
fects in Male Attire.
just Look Over the Modest
DreSsers in Topeka!

The most brilliant yellows, green's,
oranges and puppies are being used
in male shirts this spring. Many such
shirts, of the most violent character,
are to be seen displayed in the gents
furnishing parlors.
Moreover there are found most
every day young men of singularly
intrepid nature who are willing to
wear them.
If it was ever thought that the male
was modest dresser compared to his
more ornamental wife, the idea gets a
severe jolt this spring. There appears
to have been a plot Matched among
shirtmakers to throw a little pep and
ginger into male dressing. In a way
they have succeeded. The new shirts
have zip and verve. But as something
to wear-as a bit of costume or habili-
ment-they can be only soberly con-
sidered by the taxpayers of Singapore
or some other remote and unenlight-
ened seaport.
Some attribute the coloring in the
new shirts TO the shortage of import
ed dyestuffs and if this be so it is a
vicious aspersion on domestic dyes.
Just what there is in the America n
temperament to encourage the produc-
ton OF such monstrosities it would be
hard to say. Most sensible people
would prefer to believe it is not de-
served.
The new shirts however will per-
haps find favor in some circles. They
will be valuable at least in indicating
the imbecile population of any com
munlty If there are young men
among your acquaintance whose in
FIRMLY from the chin up you have sus-
pected, you may now make sure on
the point.

No, of course not. Gertrude, L m not

Aren't your hats always next to

All those artists who have been
painting the town, or coloring their
stories simply aren't in it any more

can dash off a hatscape or two while
you wait.
Birds, fruit and flowers are the
choice subjects for these hat master
pieces. The artists go in for still life
possibly because they believe while
there is still life there is hope.
Most of the birds are anything but
still, however, as they are done in the
most shrieking of colors and lean to-
ward the parakeet and cockatoo varie-
ties.

The same thing evidently has hap

have lavishly gone about decorating
evening frocks and afternoon gowns in
handpainted festoons, garlands and

The plain little tight bodices and
bouffant skirts and panniers of taffeta

Savannah.
Nineteen years old, athletic and

sit Is Only Human Nature,
Said Man at Capitol.

A little, stopped shouldered, white
haired old man walking south on
Harrison street, arrived at a point just
south of the west entrance of the state
capitol grounds. There is a spot on
the capitol grounds in this locality that
is quite bare of grass and 1t seems
to be a favorite place for robins to
congregate and hunt for grub worms
which bury themselves in the ground.
The little old man stopped, when
opposite this spot. to watch the red
breasted birds hunt for their evening
! meal
There were possibly so robins, busy
plunging their bills into the ground af-
ter the grub worms, and rarely did
they mark a spot without the desired
result.
Slowly but surely the robins came
nearer and nearer to the little old man
who intently watched them as they
fitted here and there. Just as slowly
Cautiously he withdrew it and the
couple who were passing stopped to
watch both birds and the little old
man.
Biscuits in Pocket.
Two bright, fresh, biscuits came
out of the pocket with his hand and
he slowly began to crumbIe them into
fine particles, then throw the crumbs
to the birds. At first they appeared
frightened, then, gaining confidence,
came closer to him, till finally, they
gathered about him to partake of his
bounty.
Three little sparrows came up and
attempted to join in the feast. In
Stant1y there was confusion in the
ranks of the robins as they chased
them away. Again and again did the
sparrowS attempt to gather some
crumbs, only to meet with defeat for
the robins would have none of their
company at that meal.
There" said the little old man, 'sis

of great deal of the trouble in Eu-
