erto this method has been chiefly con-
fined to anaeSthetics and remedies for

success is claimed for it in both di-

rate a sponge, which is. contained in
a tube through which nitrous oxide

of chemical or other change from con-

AS 1T LOOKED TO BROTHER

day one who Cooked especially good"
to the younger children arrived. That
noon they discussed him at the family
table. "Oh, he's RICH" ventured one
OF the youngsters.
"Why?" smiled the elder sister-just

why he looks so prosperous" came
back the answer, to the amusement Of
the rest of the family.
That afternoon the architect made
return trip and displayed his plans
tc the elder sister. The high-school
boy arrived while the two of them
were on the veranda looking over the
plans. After the architect had gone
he strolled over to his sister, and re-

WORLD TOO MUCH WITH US
Writer Questions Whether Mankind as
Whole Does Not Neglect the
Best investments.

A thoughtful American who lost his
life when the Lusitania was sunk re-
marked as he awaited his fate with
calmness that death is the most beau
tiful adventure in life" 1t was sin
gularly impressive utterance which
was wired around the world, and 1t is
still remembered and treasured IN
hosts of hearts.
A tombstone in Flanders bears the
words of another reflective American,
Dinsmore Ely, soldier from Chicago.
With what seemed a premonitiOn that
the supreme sacrifice was at hand, he
gave the world thought comparable
in interest and significance with that
of Charles Frohman, when he wrote
in his last letter to his mother that 1t
is an investment, not loss, when a
man dies for his country"
Both of these notable utterances
sound a high note too rarely heard IN
our hurrying world of today. But II
life is the greatest individual asset OF
any one of us, surely it's wise invest
ment should be our matter of greatest
concern. What sort of an investment
of life do we make in living selfShly
for self? Can it yield an adequate re-
turn? Does the very best that it has
to- offer-wealth position, power
make it worth while? Nothing is more
certainly established than that these
invariably disappoint' the hearts set on
them; and altogether fmpermanent is
such satisfaction as they do confer.
AS a matter of theory we admit, or
most Of us do with Cicero, that Ma
ture has lent us life at interest; and
with Seneca, that the body is not a
home but an inn. We also give nomi-
nal assent to the teaching of the faith
into which we were born that life in
trusts us with talents-one or more
of which we must make wise invest
ment. We are left in no doubt as TO
what that investment is, yet how few
of us make it, and how little thought
the world as whole gives to invest
ments of the higher kind?
Is il not that the world is too much
with us. that it's investments are too
alluring? Yet the soul which denies
love asked of it, withhOlds kindness
expected from it, or refuses the OPP
portunity for sacrifice offered to it.
may have world banks filed and vet
be bankrupt any moment. For the
only investments that cannot fail are
those of caorifico and dUtV. done and

Where Husbands Wear Wedding Rings

The women in Brazil have not equal
suffrage. but they have an equality
with the men of their country which
is not enjoyed by their North Ameri-
can sisters. All Brazilian husbands are
expected to wear their wedding rings
as conscientiously as their wives, and
generally they do so. The ring is a
plain gold band, the same as that
worn by wives in the United States.
The women in Brazil unanimously are
of the opinion that this is about the
last word in equality.
