1t is agreed by many students
of the human face that the elon-
gated nasal septum indicates good
breeding and aristocratic lineage
1t is a charteristic you will find
less often among low-born folk;
peasants are less often possessed
of it than aristocratic folk, and
among aristocrats and well-bQrn
folk those who are best bred and
most aristocratic have the prolong-
ed septum. At least that is what
some physiognomists says.
Think of the people you know
isn't it true that when the septum
that divides the two sides of the
nose extends down slightly they
are of better bred sort? Doesn't
it seem to add a look of breeding
and aristocratic poise to their
faces?
No better example of the long
septum could be found than in the
face of Martha Washington. that
charming little hazel-eyed Virginia
lady who, through no merit of her
own except that of winning the
heart of the stalwart young soldier
who was later to prove his powers

COULD WORLD AFFORD TT?


THE Four Hour-Day' is the
name of a new publication which
is issued in the interests of bring
ing about a radical reduction in the
hours of labor. Realization of the
agitate6 reform, 1t is claimed,
would solve the problem OF unem-
ployment because the four hour
day will give everybody a job, since
it will take twice as many persons
TO do the work .s-..
Ardent socialists are apt to de-
nounce the publishers for their eX-
treme conservatism. The tradition
al socialist theory is that two hours
should be sufficient for any man
to work daily if the work were fair
w distributed. The trouble is, of
course, that inconsiderate persons
like Thomas A. Edison and Charles
NJ Schwab, from their earliest days
when they were fired with ambi-
ton to get ahead in the world down
to the present time, when they have
achieved an extraordinary degree
of n1oteriaI success. insist on work
ing IA hours instead of four hours
a day. And when asked for the
secret of their success they have
an uncomfortable habit of replying
that it is hard work and plenty of
il. Thorough search through the
biographies and autobiographies of
other great men also fails to dis
close that they were either theo-
retically or practical believers in
the virtues of the shortened work
day.
OF course. if the four-hour day
should arrive we would have 70
pay fer it in some way or other,
obviously. the four-hour day would
send the prices OF everything
seooting sky-high. Many a BUSH
ness or professional man would
shorten his own present working
day if he could afford it, The ques-
tion is, could the world afford a
four hour. work day? 1t could only
on the theory, which might be diff
fieult of proof, which shorter hours
mean increased production. For
increased production of the neces-
saries of life is the great need of
every country in the world today.

General Pershing. General Wood
and every other expert summoned
before the congressional committee
on the army, declared that the reg
ular military force should not ex-
coed 100000. Secretary of war
Baker had insisted upon 100000
after he went 10 Paris and found
that President Wilson was anxious
to have this country take part in
sitting on the lid in volcanic regions
where explosions will occur every
so often. Before the league OF ma
tons program was developed Will
son and Baker opposed large
armies.
Some of the generals told the
committee that 100000 soldiers
would be sufficient force for
years to come. TO use in America
and the island possessions, and that
if more were wanted by the war
department it was for reasons not
known to the fighting leaders.
So congress has decided to pro-
vide funds for an army of but 2so,-
900. thus saving many millions an
nually as well as keeping 100000
more men for productive activities
needed, The action of the senate
in keeping us out of forced going
TO wars on the other side by de-
feating the treaty, means lighter
taxes and quicker cancellation OF
war debts than would be possible

as leader and organizer gained
for herself an immortal place in
the hall of noble women. But she
could have done no more than she
did to merit the place of distinc-
ton to which she was thus promo
ted. For she conducted herself al
ways with that serene good breed
ing, that unostentatious hospitality,
that were always commented on by
those who had glimpses of the pri7
vate life of the father of his coun-
try.
Washington, you know, was q
man of more than average height,
,but Martha was a petite woman,
with a slight tendency to plump
ness as the years passed.
One of the greatest charms pos
sessed by Mrs. Washington was her
ability to act gracefully in a posi-
ton that had never been held by
any other woman. Early White
House hospitality was in many
ways more lavish than it is today,
because the general public was adj
fnitted to the executive mansion on
almost every occasion. Washington
irving, in his life of the first pres
ident, perhaps pays the highest
tribute to Mrs. Washington when
he says that she. was "undazzled
by her position" and later on when
he says that she had the real

inal cost of lines, but the cost OF
replacing now should be used in
fixing values. That would involve
higher transportation rates than II
earnings be upon the actual cost
of the roads. The activity of the
organizations probably is mainly
due to the fear that if high rates
be permitted to insure the expect
ed percentage of earnings, the
temptation will he to reduce wages
after September !. prior to which
the law permits no changes by any
company.
While there has as yet been in
sufficient time for the ascertain
ment of probable railroad policies
under the new regime of private
ownership. such indications as have
come 10 hand have on the whole
been favorable. Revenue reports
have been better than in the past
and there has been a drift toward
better service. The roads have be-

policy which augurs well for their
greater efficiency, and, hence for
their better earning power, as we'll

PEERING INTO THE DARK

Scientific speculations are not
the vain labors which they often
appear to simpler minds to be. AS
DR.. Charles p. Steinmetz the dis
tinguished authority on electric
waves and power remarked recent
ly: Many of the speculations Of
half a century ago have now be-
come tangible realities" He was
discussing the reawakened interest
in the possibility Of our commune
eating with the planet Mars.
The wireless inventor Marconi.
has been receiving some mysteri-
Gus wireless messages which that
famous inventor, and discoyerer
thinks may have come from the
Red planet. The probability that
they did, DR.. Steinmetz thinks,
must, to the practical mind of the
day, be regarded as a wild dream"
notwithstanding which dismissal
he proceeded to deliver in highly
practical fashion his theory of the
possibility of our communicating
with Mars: IF the, United States.
for instance, should go into the eff
fort to send messages to Mars with
the same degree Of intensity and
thoroughness with which we went
into the war. 1t is not at all i'm
probable that we should succeed.
To do so would mean the consoli-
dation of all the electric power in
the country into one great plant
or sending station. Lofty towers
would have to be erected, 1000 feet
high or more, and the cost of the
attempt might be a billion dollars
But having established that the
Martians had sent us a message,
what would we actually have
gained? Who could tell whether
we had been sent the Martians'
love or been told to go to? But
even that might be worked out in
time, for it is certain that once the
human Imagination takes hold of
a problem there can be no aban-
donment of speculation until dem
onstratable conclusions have been
brought forth,
