Our soldiers will not have to worry
about warm legs this winter IL they
will but wear the "leg long" that has
been devised by Miss Emma Frohman,
sister of the late Charles Frohman,
for their comfort. The new garment
fits snugly around the tops Of the SOL
dier's puttees or canvas leggins and
extends upwards to be drawn tight
around the waist. 1t is knitted Of
very heavy wool and is sure to keep
cold away from the wearer's legs.
This photo shows Miss Frohman
putting her '1eg longs" on one of the
soldiers. He is also wearing q knit

chance of his ever getting cold. Guam

AND NOW THEY ARE COOKING
TOBACCO TO MAKE 1T BETTER

For a good many years The American
Tobacco Company have been conducting a
series of experiments having as their
object the Improvement of smoking
tobaccos.
And it is interesting to know that one
of the greatest of their discoveries was one
of the simplest, and that was. that cooking
or toasting tobacco improved it in every
way, just as cooking most foods improves
them.
They took real Burley tobacco. grown
in this country; toasted it as you would
toast bread: moistened it to replace the
natural moisture driven off by toasting;
made it into cigarettes. called them
LUCKY STRIKE, the toasted cigarette"
and offered them to the public.
The result has been the greatest demand
ever created for any tobacco product in a
similar length of time.
The change produced by toasting is not
only most wholesome. but the flavor Is
greatly improved. just az cooking improves
meat for example.

Ace Of Fishes.

The most striking characteristic by
which fishes Of different ages can be
distinguished is their size. But the
size affords US only the means to esti-
mate the age of younger fishes; as to
the older. 1t cannot serve us as an in
dication Of their age, since their
growth may vary according to the diff
ferent conditions of nutrition, so that
often the younger fish VIII excel In
size the much older fish. There is,
however. at least as regards the fishes
Of the Northern seas, a sure indica-
ton that betrays their age. 1t is the
OtOlites, or ear stones. These ear
stones grow as long as the fish itself
continues to grow, and form annual
rings In the manner of trees. The
more annual rings shown by fish's
ear stones The greater its age. In
this way the age of a fish can be ex-
actly determined.

Unnecessary Intestines.

The human intestine seems to be
partly relic Of prehistoric times,
largely useless In this modern day and
age. Tho uselessness of the vermi.
form appendix, which is simply the
stump Of what was once an impor-
tant and functioning branch of the
alimentary canal, is well known. Re-
cent operations In London hospital
seem to indicate that large part of
the lower main canal. the colon, can
be dispensed with without harm. In
these operations sections Of the colon
have been removed. The work brings
up again the famous scientist Metch-
nikof's debated contention that these
parts Of the anatomy are not only use
less but dangerous.

JOHNS is HEAD
OF COMPANY
Elected President Of Batten Concern
Which is One Of the Pioneers
in Field Of Ad-
vertising.

The recent death of George Batten,
president of George Batten Company,
Inc, a pioneer of the advertising
business and for many years one of
it's most prominent representatives,
has been followed by the election of
William H. Johns to the presidency
Of the company founded by Mr.. Bat
ten.
There could be no more logical sue
cessor than Mr.. Johns to the re-
sponsibilities long held by Mr.. Bat
ten az chief of one OF the greatest
advertising agencies now in the field,
for the business association of the
two men covers a period of thirty
years In 1883, when Mr.. Batten was
advertising manager for Funk 4
Wagnalls, Mr.. Johns was solicitor
in his department In 1891 Mr.. Bat
ten started the company which bears
his name. and Mr.. Johns was one OF
his first employees. He became a
partner when the business was in
cor2orated, in 1904, and had been it's
vice president since that time.
That Mr.. Johns is recognized as one
of the most prominent men in the
advertising field today is indicated by
his recent appointment as chairman
of the division Of advertising of the
committee on public information, the
division having been created by exc
c,itive order of President Wilson.
1.-The business of sGeorge Batten
Company" said Mr.. Johns, in speak
ing of his new responsibilities. was
founded by Mr.. Batten on the high
ideals of absolute honesty, and OF
placing the interests of the client
always before those Of the company
To maintain 1nswervingly these ideals
will be my aim
