Easy Victims.

Easy Victims.
New York What? Look at your
young mans business rating? Nom
sensel Look at his head. Spend your
time looking up his habits! More
nonsense! Look at his nose. Worry
about his bank account? Not at all.
Worry about his chin, il you like, but
never about his bank account, be-
cause II he has the right sort Of chin
the bank account will just naturally
come, and IL his nose is the right
shape so is his family tree, and If he
is a roundhead-well, il he is round
head, grab and wed him on the spot.
This advice to young women with a
longing for matrimony is given by DR..
Katherine M. II. Blackford, the scien.
fist.
She has got things to such fine
point that she can look at a man and
tell exactly what he will do in any
given circumstances. And she has a
tip for the Hand Holders Society
that ought to be worth fortunes.
ut nOi man 1911 WHul
poetry says he is. He may be noble
and a pioneer and all that, but his
heart is likely to be harder than the
callous on his palm, and he can't be
made to loosen up except with dyna-
mite or a threat of Jail.
DR.. Blackford says the man with a
soft hand is also likely to have a soft
heart; and any girl knows what she
can do to a soft heart. The only
drawback is that the soft-hearted
man is likely to be mushy and wants
to spend his time In kissing when he
should be hustling for the where
withal to pay the landlord.
DR.. Blackford says science has
shown that the space in front OF the
ears is occupied by the brains that
control the coul, the intellect and the
esthetic things Of life, while the
space behind the ears is filed with
animal instinct.
Working on this theory she ex-
plains that the project man is the one
with ears in the middle and that
generally means round head. The
fiat head means he probably will de-
velop into deacon and leading citi-
zen, but have leaning toward can
righteousness, while IL his head is
long on top he is going to thirst for
monkey dinners and the privilege Of
sitting next TO the. smart set.
And the man with the high head
that is, one. whose dome slopes up
from the eyebrows like q cocoanut-
that's the man who writes THE snow
that SHOWS in the spring, let US sing"
and maybe tries to interpret Greek
emotions by means OF Greek dances.
He's ornamental, true. but instead OF
doing the feeding, he has to be fed.

WRITES LORDS PRAYER
SIX TIMES ON A STAMP
Man Puts Same Words Also on Paper
one-eiohth by Three-eiahths
Of Inch in Size

Iron Mountain, Mich.--Ernest Gall
Of this city, il Is believed, has estab.
lished new record for fine writing
by transchibing the Lords prayer on
a piece of paper one eighth OF an inch
by three-eighths OF an, inch in size.
He also wrote the Lords prayer six
times on a two-cent stamp, 800 words
in all.
Mr.. Gall says all that is required
to write so fine Is fair penmanship. a
steady and light hand, much patience.
a good drawing pen, which must be
wiped after writing each word.
In his first attempt at fine writing
he wrote the Lords prayer on a piece
OF paper the size Of two-cent post
age stamp. This was beaten by a
school teacher of Escanaba who
wrote 160 words and her record was
beaten by Mr.. Dulfour OF Escanaba,
who wrote 800 words.
A few days ago Mr.. Gall wrote the
Lords prayer on piece OF paper
hree-sixteenths Of an inch by three
eighths of an inch and the Declare.
ton of Independence on piece OF
paper the size OF u. s. two-cent
postage stamp. Both this record and
his latest achievement in fine writing
were written without the aid of q
reading glass and both can be read
easily when placed under such q
Glass.

HERMIT OF BAKER LAKE

Seattle, Wash.-Can some myster-

ARGENTINE RULER
A MAN OF MYSTERY
Shakes Country With Reforms, Tho
He Went Into Office With
out n Plodoe


He Went Into Office With
out q Pledge.
Buenos Aires. Argentine Argsn-
tina Ia ruled by the strangest poll
tician In all the Americas. Hipolito
Irisoyen. the new president OF this
big South American republic. is q
man of mystery and silence. His has
been entirely q career of deeds. for
he has never made speech and
never given out an interview.
Since he assumed the presidency
last October he has sent no messages
to congress and has made no state
ment of policy. But he has struck
hard an often at corruption.
Irigoyen did not make a single
pledge during his campaign for the
presidency. He uttered just one state
ment, and that to personal friend:
Il will make an exemplary govern
ment." He went into office pro-
found enigma but popular idol.
He has been a leader of the radical
or liberal party for thirty years, but
they have been years of nn5roken
silence. He has always been regarded
az reformer. but he has never avow-
ed such a role. Some observers be-
lieve his keen-eyed man with his iron
gray hair and tightly closed lips Is
the super statesman of South Ameri-
ca.
When Irigoyen was inaugurated he
went into office with the simplest
ceremonies on record in Argentina.
He wanted to ride to the capitol in a
street car. but was prevailed upon by
friends to take a taxicab.
Outside Of taking the oath OF office,
he spoke no word at the Inaugural
ton. Nor did he do any smiling or
bowling.
His first act upon becoming presi-
dent was to turn over his salary Of
$4,000 a year to charity. Then he
provided that the poor OF Buenos
Aires might be quartered in public
buildings.
After that he started a slashing of
the public payrolls that brought shud-
ders to the politicians. Next he be.
gan a policy of compelling the big
land owners to contribute more to
road building in the rural districts. II
is said he will promote the treakine
up of the large ranches, so that the
poorer classes may become land
owners and thus improve their-in
many cases-wretched position.
Irigoyen Ia IS years old and a
bachelor. He is of humble origin, but
is said to be wealthy. owning several
large estates. He is a studious man
and for many years held chair in
the University of Buenos Aires. BY
many he is regarded as the foremost
economist of South America.
The Argentine president serves SIX
years, so Irigoyen has long time in
which to work out the reforms he IL
: said TO be planning. He has the firm
support of the chamber of deputies
or lower house OF congress, member:
OF which serve four years. The
senate, however, is in the hands o.
his political foes, the conservatives
and the senators serve nine years
Not many in Argentina, however, ex
pect the opposition of the upper hous,
to prove of much avail against thu
projects Of the man of silence.

Dear Sir
I have been reading the various

thought it was about time you heard
from this station, So I am going to
endeavor to tell few of the hap
penings here.
We have been in our winter bar
racks about a month now. They are
very comfortable in every way al
though I don't fancy sleeping in a
hammock. These hammocks are
strung about seven or eight feet above
the floor. Another thing I don't like
very we'll is their quickness in turn
ing over. I first realized this the
third night I slept in mine. For it
was that night that I woke up and
found myself on the floor. They say
anyone from Minnesota is lucky and
so I guess that is the reason I did
not hurt myself. The same night an
other fellow fell out and landed on
his knees. The sentry walked up to
him and asked him where he was hurt
and the unlucky "rookie" replied that
he had fallen on his knee and sprained
