SOUTH DAKOTA AUTOS
State Officials Fix Valuation OF the
Cars nj $40, ,0OO,OOO.

Pierre, July South Dakota has
invested approximately 30,000,000
in motor vehicles, including automo-
biles owned by private persons, mo-
torcycles and dealers cars. This es-
innate by the auto department is
based on an average of $500 for each
car-which is conceded to be a fair
average for all cars, even If some are
5000 lower in price than that, be-
cause large number are very much
higher priced.
Besides that, South Dakotans have
actually paid S11S.500 for licensing
cars so far this year. The auto de-
partment figures that there is one
car for about every twelve persons
men, women or children-in the
state. which places South Dakota
very near the top, If not at the top,
of per capita for vehicles of that
character.

the case with Gambetta, the great
French statesman. He had prodigi-
Gus head, but when his brain was ex-
amined after death it was found to
be rather below the average in size
and weight.
Is there any other indication, then,
by which the size of a mans brain can
be judged during his life?
Recently it has been suggested that
the eye offers such a test. Large
eyes, it is said, usually indicate large
brains behind them. The experiments
upon which this conclusion rests have
been made upon fish, and consequent
ly they cannot have the convincing
force that they would possess If the
subjects had been human beings. New
ertheless, the suggestion possesses a
certain interest, because it is mat
ter of common observation that peo-
pie with large eyes are apt to mani
fest high intelligence, and particular
ly what is called spirituality. They
seem to be less materialistie, more
imaginative and more poetical and ar
tistic i'll temperament than the major
ity of the human race.
Anyhow, the eye is certainly the
window of the soul, and its color, its
expressiveness, and perhaps its size,
may offer valuable clues to the meas
ure and the quality Of the brain that
looks out through it.

Advice to the Lovelorn
By Beatrice Fairfax.

Dear Miss Fairfax; l am is and have
been going out with a man Of % for quite
while, Just with the intention Of being
a good friend. Although I did not. In any
way, encourage his attentions. they seem
to be serious. and am at loss as to what
course to take.
II should tell him that cannot marry
him, I will lose a very good friend. II !
do not. he will soon expect me to become
engaged to him. That cannot do. for the
reason that II / marry him ! will spoil his
future, perhaps, and that, am proud to say.
l am too good to do.
Please do not think that I have a bad
character. II is not that at all.
I hope you will not think me foolish or
silly but do hope that you will take this
into a little consideration. and help me,
like you have done to many other people,
who are now happy, owing only to your very
good and sound advice. MARY p.
Letters like this come to me frequently
and are followed by others asking why
have failed to respond. How am to guess
what romantic idea you have about sacri-
ficing yourself lest you spoil the future of
the man you love! I suggest that you speak
to the man Of whose love you are so un-
happily certain--and with a great deal
more frankness than you have shown in
talking to me.

velvet and fur. The foundation OF
the muff is tulle, and there are wide
trimming bands or velvet with a lit
