SNAKE CRAWLING UP
PANTS LEG DOESN'T
BOTHER MISSOURIAN

PARIS, Mo, Sept. 19.-Dan Byars
of Spencer Chapel, near here, is not
afraid of snakes, in fact, he picks them
up whenever he sees them on his walks
owe tine farm, so an experience
through which he passed this week
did not cause him any uneasincss.
Byars was walking through some
weeds in a field when he stepped on
what he thought was a cornstalk. AS
he walked on it felt as if the cornstalk
had caught in his trousers leg, but
Byars did not stop to investigate IN
til after he got out Of the weeds. He
then noticed that a snakes head ap-
peared over the waistband of his trous-
ers with the tail hanging over his
foot. He pinched the tail with his foot
and the snake crawled out and over his
shoulder. Byars then took the snake
and, after giving it the "once over"
placed it on the ground and it crawled
back into the weeds. 1t was a HARM

THE AMERICAN SHOW WINDOW.
A PROMINENT woman physician

A PROMINENT woman physician
at the recent meeting of feminine doc
tors from all parts of the world held
in New York said: "The American
man of today uses his women as a
show window to advertise his success
in life"
We beg to differ with the lady
speaking. In some instances her al
gument may be right but we believe
in most cases the American man finds
it a pleasure to give his women every
thing his decree of success justifies and
if she desires that it go into ~sartorial
scenery well and good.
Judging from the appearance Of
some professional women they pos
scss no husband with advertising III
clinations concerning success and we
suggest their acquiring one at once
if they can.
And then again. A wise wife knows
that as long as she makes herself at
tractive to her husband he is less like
ly to chart a course along the primrose
path. So let's figure it a $3.50 arran-
cement and not argue any further.

THE ROAD

MRS. LILLY HERALD FROST
editor of the Vandalia Leader, II
speaking of the recent road bond is
sue election says editorially:
ALREADY there is speculation as to
when a second election will be called
for a road bond issue in Audrain
County. The Leader hopes it will ne
delayed until men, representing every
part Of the county, meet, and meet
many times until a bond issue that is
really representative of the thought
and the needs of the county, can De
submitted.
st is indisputably true that the
East End will not vote for any bonl
issue rel presented only on a rock
ribbed guarantee that the southeast
section Of the county has its due quota
Of roads. In saying this the Leader
represents every resident in the East
End. The entire East End is as live q
bunch of road boosters as ever helped
build roads or blessed a community.
The vote Tuesday was not against the
good roads but against the bond issue
presented. The overwhelming defeat
of the issue is proof that the next Is
! SIZE will have to be more democratic
in it's intuitions and more definite in
its staten1ents.
thinking that details could be
worked out harmoniously if the boni
issue passed, the Leader was anxious
to see the road proposition carry Tues
day. The voters however have spoken
in no uncertain tones, and absolutely
new provisions will have to be made
for a new proposition to carry"

of a mate because of her wonderful
head of hair he must be somewhat dis
gruntled to discover that a great part
of it was acquired and not endowed by
nature.
Someone tells US that it wasn't Del
ilah who cut the muscular locks of
Sampson but that she called in a bar
Der to accomplish the task. We do
not care to debate this point but we
will say that many a barber has amDu-
tated many a masculine mustache, the
operation resulting in a loss of power
in the family circle until the wife
thought the bosky gathering on her
spouse's upper lip sufficient to entjtle
him to enter the home once again.
Many a misplaced hair on an already
appropriated shoulder has been the
straw which showed not only which
way the wind vas blowing but that
broke the canubial camcl's back.
The sword of Damoclcs hung from a
hair and so has the marital happiness
of many a gay husband.
The hair in the family runs the
brush used to discipline the hopeful
and the cowlick.
1t has much to do with the length Of
the feminine minute and the indigoel
vocabulary Of the waiting husband.
There are times when the rolling yin
assumes the role Of the family "nut-
cracker" and messages the thatch all
100 thin for protection against the at
tack in that particular sector,
At times the hair makes sudden pill
grimages to parts unknown when
friend wife, finding no better handle,
acquires a fist full suddenly in chart
ing the course of her better half's nav
igation.
That is why some men wear a pom
pador and other can count the capill-
airy adornment which is sprinkled over
rather a barren waste of skull.
Watch your hair like you watch your
step, It's safer.

WOMEN PHYSICIANS
ATTACK THE CORSET
Double Chins and Fat Legs Are Due

NEW YORK, Sept. 2O.-Double
chins and fat legs-like the long green
grass growing around on obstruction
in the meadow-merely are growths
chat naturally would thrive elsewhere
if it were not for tight corsets.
The international Conference of Wo-
mon Physicians came to that conells-

measure for older women

models of today.
When the evidence was complete, it
was concluded that:
Tight corsets are responsible for
inability of many women to bear chill
dren.
They make it impossible for women
to walk and breathe naturally. They
make women "look like what they are
not" and therefore are a sham and a
delusion.
The session became so heated when
the French doctors objected to the alb
solute banning of the corsets, except
for post-maternal and corrective pur-
poses, that Contessina Maria Koschi,
official interpreter at the conference,

NEWSPAPERS VS.. HANDBILLS.

NEWSPAPERS vs.. HANDBILLS.
THE day is coming when the hand
bill will be as scarce in communities
where there are good newspapers as
an Eskimo in a bathtub.
1t is noticeable here as elsewhere
that business men and those who have
public sales are becoming more and
more dependant upon the newspaper
for their publicity.
1t is true that the newspaper may
not reach every home but it reaches
the greatest number in a community
and is READ not only by the subscrlo-
ers but by those who can borrow or
lay hands on one.
The newspaper comes regularly and
every page of it is gone over with i'll
terest.
The handful usually is picked up on
the lawn by an outraged property
owner with a sense of neatness and
crushed into q ball for the waste bas-
ken or found by Tho housewife in reply
to a mysterious ring of the doorbell,
just when she is taking the afternoon
nap, and put it in the fire. The news
paper does not reach this end at least
until it has been READ.
The posted handful, in these days
of motor cars and hurry, has little con
sideration unless it is in type two feet
high so that those who speed may read
and even then can give no message
and is but a reminder and adjunct Of
the advertisers newspaper publicity.
Hand bills thrown in a front yard
in Mexico or tackled on a telephone pole
are violations of city ordinances.
Placed in show windows they destroy
the effect of the merchants display.
A live merchant figures his show win"
dow space as worth so much money a
year to him and when he gives away
a part Of it to another is cutting down
the value of this space.
You a figure an average of four
and a half to a family, according to
census statistics and every member of
the family who can read finds some
thing of interest for them in the news
paper.
To get the most for your money in
the way of publicity the newspaper is
the medium TO use. This has been
proven time and again.
