ing.
Take an envelope. Place # r =
zcntally over the eyes and the uppe>
half Of the nose so as to conceal the
upper half OF the face.
Now note that Mona Lisa smirk.
Pure sensuality. No mother instinct.
Cynicism. selfishness, passion. Note
the upward curve Of the lips, the
wavering lines CT the mouth, the
broad nose base-all Of these; then
II YOU have a copy OF the famous
painting Of Mona Lisa which hung in
the Louvre in Paris, take your en-
velope, place it over the face Of the
Mona Lisa as you did the face Of
Katherine Burgess-and you will at
once see the likeness.
Probably n Defective.
This woman probably is defective.
Certainly she is a psychopath. Yet
she knows right from wrong, as does
Gamble, and she Is OF the type which
doesn't care so lCng as her desires are
gratified.
Now conceal the lower half of the
face with your envelope, so that the
nose and upper part Of the face show.
Now you have woman much
older. By concealing the upper part
OF the face you get a girlish lower
half-the face of a girl of eighteen.
BY concealing the mouth and Jaws,
you add twenty years to the appear
ance OF the woman.
That is passion. Here is the old
woman, a girl, a mere child. made old
by the unbridled play OF her physical
desires.
Note the expression of the eyes;
then recall the last picture you saw
OF Theda Bara in a vampire play-and
you will recall the expression clearly.
The eyes, the upper half of this face
are vampirish-and old, old as pas
sion itself.
Now. with your envelope bisect the
face perpendicularly.
The right face, particularly the
lips, jaw, chin, and temple are those
of a hard-faced, selfish old woman.
whose sole interest in life is to get
what she wants.
Note the corner on the right chin.
Then recall the corners on CANDLES
chin-Rnd you see the cave-woman
chin. That is where Gamble appeals
to this woman. She wants something
bigger, more brutal, stronger than
herself.
Now reverse your envelope so as
to conceal the right side OF the face.
See the difference? Here is the
face OF a petulant girl who pouts and
complains when she cannot have in
stantly everything she wants. While
the right half Of the face looks upon
life and the world generally with q
cynical, snezring expression, the LIFT
half OF the face regards the world
with half a smile. with careless indo-
lence-and selhshness.
There is more passion in the left
half OF the face.
But this woman will never be any
thing but just what she is-a spoiled,
petulant, selfish, shallow, moral dere-
lict.

SMILE SHOWS
CAVE WOMAN'S
PASSION, SAYS
DR.. HICkLING

In a study OF the chart OF Katherine
Downey Burgess, DR.. D. Percy Hick-
ling, the noted alienist, finds as fol-
lows:
Here is the Mona Lisa smile, the
Mona Lisa chin and nose, the Mona
Lisa expression.
The mouth is sensual. The smirIS
OF the lips Is typically that Of Mona
Lisa This mouth is sensual without
principle or kindness.
The broad nose, like that OF Gam
Bile, shows the animalistic.
The low, rounded forehead, largely
concealed by the hat, shows a lack
Of mental force.
The full, flabby face shows a list
less, sensual makeup. The small.
irregular ear, with the inherent To-
bule, shows clearly a low type OF
mental makeup.
This woman is guided by passion
and immortality rather than by judg-
ment and thought
Lack Of Initiative.
Note the eyes. The dropping lids
indicate lack OF Initiative. This wom-
an is apt to be guided easily, and led
by others through her lack Of mental
and moral stamina.
She is a creature Of her own ply
steal impulses. The large, full neck,
full almost to the point OF goitre,
indicates a hypothyroid condition.
The ensemble Of these dominant
characteristics gives us the face
and head OF a woman who is purely
creature Of her own physical prompt
sngs. This woman could not be an
intelligent mother. She Is utterly
lacking in the mother instinct.
Her chief temperamental tendencies
are those OF utter selfshness and in
difference to the pain OF others, so
long as her own pleasures are not
interfered with, or so long as she
suffers no pain.
This woman IS clearly Of the type
to whom a cave man would appeal
She Is the type OF woman who could

or to steal a machine-until II was
suggested to him. He didn't have the
moral courage TO refuse. He was
dominated By the cave man again.

way. The means to her meant moth
ing, the end-Gamble-mean all TO
her.
John werres had the automobile.
He would drive the trio out OF the
city-thereby Offering the chance to
take his machine By force.
Circumstances, the impulses Of each
OF the trio, the natures Of each Of
them, the darkness of the night, and
Werres' desire to make money with
the machine. all combined to his
death,
Had Gamble not have wanted to

take the woman with him, Wsrres
would be alive.
Had Newman not wanted to leave
the army Werres probably would Be
living. Had Katherine Burgess not
have wanted to go with Gamble, Wer-
res would be living.

Had werres not have owned an au-
tomobile some chauffeur other than
WerTes would be sleeping beneath the
earth.

which follows. finds these conclusions.
His opinion follows:
In summing up the characteristics,
the combination Of these three types
inevitably had to lead to a crime OF
this sort
Gamble, the domineering. deminat-
ing brute man, with but one impulse
and but one idea OF pursuing it
brute force.

selfish, together with the sensual.
And Newman, chameleon-man, tax
ing on the color Of his associates.
All Of these made q combination
which created an atmosphere OF crime
as naturally as decaying matter Gre
ates offensive odor.
Werres was the merest incident IN
this murder 80 far as the perpetra-
tors are concerned.
II might Just as easily have been
some other man than Werres. He
was not only a victim OF a murder,
but he was a victim Of clrcum-
stances as we'll
object OF His Lust.
Gamble wanted the automobile to
get away from the country and to
take the woman with him. Not be-
cause he loved the woman-merely
that she was an object Of his animal
lust And his way to get the auto
mobile was by brute force. He didn't
particularly want Newman with
them, but Newman at the moment
offered assistance in getting what
Gamble wanted.
The woman didn't want the auto
mobile. She wanted to be with
Gamble. That was all she knew. all
the impulse she felt, merely to stay
by the side OF this cave man who
dominated her. and who appealed to
her sensual nature.
Newman didn't want the automo-

ested in the bill Numerous commer-
 cial organizations. private citizens ana
 trade papers have approved the idea. Many small manufacturers are un- able 10 enter the export market be- cause they cannot afford to go to the expense of protecting their trade made Tn the foreign markets To these man ufacturers, permission to use a nation al trademark at a nominal fee would
 be a great boon, if such mark were protected by the government, through
 out the world It will also be a boon
 to many larger manufacturers who
 have had their own trade marks prat- led in one or more foreign countries.
 In such countries these large manu-
 facturers need only p4 the national emblem upon their products The for-I eign consumer, therefore will soon re- coenize that even goods bearing anI American private brand are not nec- essarily American, unless such brand is accompanied by the national trade mark
 small manufacturers are now at quite a disadvantage as compared with large manufacturers because of the in-l ability of the latter to expend huge sums in nationally advertising their products. The quasi-monopoIy secur- ed in this way by large manufacturers will be to very large extent vitiated | by permitting the small manufacturerl of integrity to use upon his goods of reconized quality the national symbol which will be freely advertised thru out the world to a far greater exten, than any private trademark ever could be.

consider quietly and thoroughly
the many bitter important lessons

the past, in planting too much

1t is we'll known by our safest

IN the past many fatal mistakes
were made by considering cotton
as the first and standard crop, at
the neglect of the more important
food and grain crops. Another
thing is that 1918 will hardly be
as favorable for cotton as was
1917.
Mr.. Miller further adds, in this

Major Varnado Entertaine d,

Mrs. N. D. Stringer entertain
ed at Six O'clock course dinner
on Wednesday, in honor of her
brother, Major Frank Varnado.
Besides the relatives OF the
honeree a number of young peo-
pie were present to do honor to
the occasion and with afternoon
speeches, toasts and music, an
enjoyable evening was spent.
Mayor Varnado, during his
four years service in the navy
previous to his enlistment in the
present war, had some rare ex-
periences, some pleasant and
some otherwise, in various for
eign countries especially in China
and Japan. and his interesting
narrative made him a very popu-
lar dinner guest indeed.
The Major considers this his
last farewell visit to his family
as he expects to leave i'm mediate
ly for France.
