ing public health laws.

How to Judge a

There are always the weIl-known
and semi-humorous methods, such as
saying brunettes are quick-tempered
or blondes are keener in their mental
activity. But there is real common
sense in just noticing whether the hair
Is well kept to judge a womans neat
ness, or in looking at her style of ar
ranging her hair. to decide whether
Or not she has good taste. If you are
one OF the few who try to make the
most of your hair, remember that it is
not advisable to wash the hair with
any cleanser made for all purposes,
sut always use some good preparation
made expressly for shampooing. You
san enjoy the very best by getting

One unusually cold day for Cali
tornla summer, a friend and | were
driVing, down Hollywood Boulevard
when the friend called NV attention
to little, bare-legged blonde child,
dressed in old-fashioned clothes,
walking down the street with an
elderly man, evidently her grand
father. The women who BASED
them were bundled in furs and COSY
coats, but the little girl tripped along
shivering in her flimsy cotton dress
and low socks.
Isn't that a ridiculous wa, to

THE other afternoon I saw two
dear old ladies standing on
the sidewalk, watching the
taking of pictures, only they had no
idea it was the movies" which were
arousing their interest and their
sympathies. They stood very close
together, hankies in hand. trying
to wedge their way through the
crowd so they might get a better
view of the little lame girl who
had been run over by a big auto
mobile.
1t made me think of the day a.
the old Biograph studio when Ella
Hall and were playing orphan
sisters in one Of Mr.. Grifith's pic
lures. We were just about the same
size, though Ella had such a little,
wistful, child face she always played
real little girl of ten. Our make
ups were perfect, and l do not be-
lieve there ever could have been
two more pitiful looking young
uns" than we were.
At the noon hour, when we were
told we could stray to a far corner
and eat our luncheon, which gener-
ally consisted of stale sandwiches
and hard boiled eggs, Ella Hall and
l wandered into a field nearby and
sat on a big rock by the roadway.
The large, greasy sandwiches were
devoured in a hurry, but Ella Hall
and l sat munching long on two
very pathetic, dried-up old oranges,
which served as dessert.
While we were sitting there, a
handsome carriage drove past US
and we noticed a dear, grandmoth-
erly old lady looking at us sympa-
thetically out Of the window. The
carriage hadn't gone a hundred feet
when VIC saw a white gloved hand
motioning for the coachman to stopl
He obeyed, soon the carriage was
turned around and was heading our
way.
That dear little old lady had been
touched at the sight of these two
poor little children sitting by the
roadway eating those withered or
anges. Her heart and her eyes were
too filled with tears to waste time
on empty words, so she tremblingly
opened her purse and handed us
dollar bill
So overwhelmed were we that we
in turn could find no words, either
of thanks or explanation, and me-
chanically Ella Hall took the dollar
bill from the extended fingers. An
other dab of handkerchief to the
tender, faded blue eyes, and the dear
little old lady was gone.
'"Oh, my goodness!" Ella Hall
whispered to me, shocked at the
sight of the dollar bill. Hadn't
we better run after her to give it
back and explain?"
l shook my head. The carriage
was already turning a bend in the
road; and after all, why steal from
the mother heart the pleasure this
sincere desire to make some one
happy had given her?
That's a grand idea, Mary; we
can give it to the janitor's little
girl" and Ella and I danced off
gaily, climbed over the fences and
ran all the way back to the studio
to tuck the dollar bill into the
scrawny little hand of child who
really needed it.
Ella Hall has been with the Uni
versal Company and has starred in
some unusually clever productions.
l had not seen her for several years
until last summer in California, when
] ran across her quite by accident

HOROSCOPE.

Astrologers read this as a most un-
fortunate day. since Saturn rules with
evil power.
1t is time that is most sinister for
all elderly persons and those who have
been long in places of Importance. All
the signs appear to be adverse to success
for men and women who have been ac'
customed to achieve their ambitions.
Agriculturists are subject to a govern
ment that presages heavy losses. Florists
also, will suffer from unexpected mis-
fortunes, but they will still profit II the
stars are read Alright.
Accident in a mine or excavation Is
foreshadowed This may cause many
deaths.
According to the seers this is a most
unfortunate aspect for love affairs and
marriages
ing should be deferred until more pro-
pitious government of the stars.
Exposure to inclement weather is be-
lieved to be peculiarly bad while this
confguration prevails.
The rule is believed to encourage treach-
err. Ambush from dark hiding places
and danger from defective bridges are
to be watched for at this time.
Financiers are warned against a sud.
den tendency to accuse them for respon-
sibility concerning war conditions. This
Is said to be especially true of bakers
interested in the Mexican situation.
Anxieties Centering in Latin-American
countries are presaged for the Pope and
clergy of the Roman Catholic church
These may entail diplomacy and inter
ference on the part of government Of.
hcials.
Delays, hindrances, reversals and the
loss of opportunities usually distinguish
experiences of mankind, when Saturn Ia

Persons whose birthdate it is may have
an anxious year. They should safeguard
the health. Young women will have Of
