LAUGH Is Effective Weapon.

An optimist, a woman who has the
best of reasons to regard fate unkind-
ly, has found laugh the best weapon
with which to meet calamity. She
laughs when bit Of china, dear to her
heart, comes to grief, and can even
achieve something like a laugh when
she learns of the treachery Of a friend.
Her optimism is the sole hold she has
on life, for unusual nerve strain would
shorten her life if it did not result in
immediate death. The difficulty OF
achieving philosophy under better con-
ditions is beyond some Of US, and here
is a woman who has had the courage
to laugh in the face Of circumstances
that might we'll leave her sore and

There is nothing so necessary to

Homer's Soldiers.

The Greek killed troops, the En-
zones, bear a variant Of name which
was given to troops in the days OF an
cient Greece. Euzonoi, meaning we'll
girdled and so girtup for exercise as
killed men are, were light troops or
even the heavily-armed hoplitai, but
without their weighty shields. At first
however. the term, as in Homer, was
used only regarding women, the zone
being the lower girdle worn by them
about the waist, but by an easy and
natural transition this came to mean a
mans belt. Then. as the belt support
ed the short skirts, killed men were
called well-belted.

Not a great many people have taken

study Of experts. who seek a plan
whereby bills cannot be copied. Stacy

Its toasted" The tobacco in this
new LUCKY STRIKE cigarette
which is now being introduced is
toasted. This is a new idea in cigar
cites, all right. and this new toasted
flavor is making a big hit with cigar
cite buyers all over town.
And no wonder 1t is very hard to
resist the appetizing suggestion that
comes into your mind when the
l"LUCKY STRIKE cigarette flavor is
compared to hot. crisp. buttered toast.
! Everybody knows just how good
toast is. and everybody remembers
how particularly good it was in the
old days when it was made fresh over
the Goals of the kitchen stove Modern
grills are all right. but there is some
thing about that old time tOasting fork
that did seem to produce flavor
This good old idea of the kitchen
stove and the tOasting fork really led
the American Tobacco Company right
up to one of the important discoveries
ever made in the cigarette business
They explain it this way According
to their experience there has been
developing for a number of years, a
countrywide preference for what TO-
bacco experts call Burley tobacco
Burley is the general name for fav
orite Kentucky leaf which is marketed
under several brands. Although all
smokers do not know Burley by that
name, certainly every smoker in this
country will recognize Burley when he
