Work for Unemployed Men.

In Town Planning, James f. Nc
Crudden tells how number of unem-
ployed men were put to work last win
ter cleaning out private allies, vacant
lots and notwithstanding places In
fashion similar to that used in Chicago
during the recent period of industrial
depression. The aim was to fix pay
ment on such basis that man would
continue in the work only as long as
he was unable to find other employ
ment.
In every large community insanltary
conditions exist on considerable
amount Of property belonging to the
city itself which is unimproved and
upon land the owners Of which are in
accessible or the title of which is in
dispute. Thousands of cubic yards OF
refuse and filth were gathered and col
lected from vacant lots throughout the
city. In many eases the lots, after be-
ing cleaned, We're turned into neigh.
borhoed recreation centers, tennis
courts and other places of amusement.

used for al-feather turbans and as

against hrim or crown, like rich
embroidery. Breasts, small wings and

feather sprays and plumes are not al
togther neglected.

anu uiiiSd Will Il circumstance
And mere punctilio OF chance
One can be led into the belief that
there may be timid bachelors, even
against ones better judgment. but the
Imagination has TO be stretched to its
utmost limit to give the widower the
benefit of a doubt as to his being
timid or bashful In the presence of
women.
The ''resourcefulness and push" OF
comedy widows is a time-henored wit
ticism which is never allowed to grow
stale because of constantly occurring
examples of her prowess in ensnaring
male hearts. Therefore. one naturally
expects widower should be quire as
proficient In the delicate art of at
tracing hearts.
There never was a greater error
The previous married life of the man
and the woman has everything to do
with establishing confidence in them
selves or routing it utterly. The nus
band who loves fondly. imbues his
wife with the belief that she is the
most charming, the most fascinating
of women. He is never weary of
thanking her most humbly for giving
herself to such a plain unattractive
man as himself. Hearing this CON
stantly, she believes ii and fancies she
could have Won any man for whom she
might have set her cap. Once a
widow. she is pumed with the assur-
ance that no man will be able to with
stand her Establishments. And 1t usu-
ally happens las a person thinketh. SO
is he"
But let it be understood that the
same sauce of appreciation has not
been fed to the husband He is given
to understand in a tacit way that he is
sadly lacking in all the attributes that
women admire in men He is led to
believe that he is awkward of man
ner; that his conversation is uninter-
esting to the opposite sex; that she Is
the only woman in the world who
could or would have loved him. She
is entirely due to her and her social
activities; that he would be nothing
without her, absolutely nothing.
Despite the loneliness of his heart
and home, not one widower out Of IA
hundred would enter the ranks of mat
rimony again did he not meet with the
one woman who was able to topple
over his firmly-grounded ideas and
cause him to realize that he still had
attractions and still had the power to
awaken affection In another heart
that would accord him his full need
of appreciation and love.
