and handed them TO the profiteers.
The country requires time TO re-
cover from that burst Of generos-
kity, before starting to do every
thing that the United States can
do in the service Of humanity"
Once post up in Europe the
sign: IF there is anything you
want that you don't see, ask for
it," and there soon wouldn't be
much left.
| Dolores" dancer, is declared
by Mr.. Ziegfeld, father of "follies,"
70 be the "most beautiful girl in
the world"
Be that as it may, Dolores, to
improve her dancing, has had ono
small toe cut OF, and thinks she
. may let the other small one 20.
Don't think the number of toes
worn by Mr.. Ziegfeld's most beau-
tiful girl means nothing to human
ity. It means much.
You, like Dolores and all otter
living creatures, are undergoing
|, gradual Transformation.
iuC ody may COulc WHcH you
will get along with two :oes on
each foot. The horse once had
five; he is better Of now with one.
"a good dentist says you would
probably be better OF with your
four wisdom teeth out. Recently
human beings have carried thirty
two teeth as a full set Previous
ly they had more. Soon We shall
cut the number to twenty eight.
While our foreheads have got
bigger, our jaws have grown
smaller, and now a full set of
teeth are too many for the aver
age mouth.
We are complicated creatures
and must not laugh at the 'most
beautiful girl" when she takes off
a small toe. She may know what
she is doing.
The proud head that you rear
above the clouds descends, as
scientists tell you, from the head
of a fish.
Your ears once were a fish's
gills. Sometimes a baby is born
with gills in its neck open, and the
milk escapes.
AS we fly more and walk less<l
think more and eat less, feel more
and fight less. great changes will
occur.
The most beautiful Dolores is q
human sign post, pointing the way.
Plenty of energy left in the
United States. The census shows
eighty cities of $4,000 population"
or more that have doubled popu-
lation. Some have multiplied pop
ulatiop by three, some by four,
even seven. Huge, heavy New
York, the metropolitan dinosaur,
has six millions in population, and
heaven knows how many billions
in money. It is a big growing
country, needing a management.
If, next to the Public Library,
you should put tent with "Jo-jo
the Dog Faced Boy" tattooed man,
Barnum's What is It" and
bearded fat lady on free exhibi-
ton, how many would go into the
library, how many to the tent?
The average church is not over
well attended, although clergy
men deal earnestly with sub
jects that should interest all
citizens. When Trinity Church,
biggest, richest, Episcopal Church
in America invites Mr.. Hickson,
the English healer" to talk,
il is packed, a thousand have to
stand, and lone young man
tainted"
Mr.. Hickson believes that he
cures the sick. There is no doubt
that he gathers them together
and gives them a chance to infect
each other. He said, "Christ gave
to His Church the wonderful
power Of healing, and that healing
has ceased, because faith died "
Since the days Of miraculous
healing, when the lepcr was made
clean, men have been taught TO
think, and cure themselves. In
cidentally, they have practically
wiped out leprosy. They can cure
and entirely eliminate other dis
cases. That is better than gath
ering together in one church a few
of the sick, to deceive them with
false hopes, or stimulate them
with hysterical excitement. The
greatest of all miracles is science.
. The people don't want and won't
have the sentimental League Of
Nations; therefore Government
should turn its attention for a
