Howard Fiiue Plays ALabama Frida,

It's an awfu1ly good plan for pegna- cious folks to be very caretdl in the choosing of the targets for their abuse.
 Not SO long ago Kid Mccoy and friend of his-a chap no more than five feet six inches tall-were in one of the Los Angeles cafes. While the two were trying to make their way through the crowd a huge chap-well over six feet started tanning and pushing. It so haps pened that MrCoys diminutive friend was directly in the path. whereupon the giant went crashing into him.
 Get out of my way" roared the big fellow to the little one, by way of apol- ogy.
 , Don't go showing me around any ] more" said the little fellow. Listened snarled the giant, tapping the little fellow on the chest, any more gab from you and I'll jam my fist down i. your throat"
 M'COY GETS IN i At this point Mccoy got into the con- versation.
 Why pick on a little fellow?'' he asked 1 The giant looked at McCoy-and 1 sneered some more. "Oh. ho, a tough guy, hey?" he snorted. 1 ''I suppose you're going to take his part, eh-going to be one of those movie heroes 1 fllsher.
 Yes. knock you cold is right" an- sewer Mccoy, as he shot out his famous right. It caught the giant on the vital 1 part of the jaw-and down he went as 1 though struck by crowbar.

The new long overblouses have
aroused a great deal of interest in
connection with the high cost of
being welI-dressed, as they go a
long way toward a satisfactory So
luton of the problem.
For instance, illustrated is a cos
tune comprising a slip of black
satin with bandeau top. a straight
folded girdle of its own satin and
a three-quarter length overblouse
of yellow tricotine embroidered in
black worsted which is suitable for
a number of informal daytime oc-

With the same slip might be worn
a second blouse. say, of cream or

What S in a Name?
HENRIETTA.
By Mildred Marshall

Henrietta is charming sixteenth
century product. OF Teutonic or
igin, but extraordinarily prevalent
in France and England, it signifies
home rule" and comes from the
NEUROLOGICAL legend of the porter Of
Valhall, called Heimdall, who
sleeps more lightly than a bird and
can hear the grass growing in tho
fields and the wool on the Sleeps
backs"
The first syllable Of this accom-
plished persons title is the basis for
masculine names without number.
Through various stages of Heimr-
richs. Heinirichs. and Heinzs, the
French Henri is reached. The kings
that it named are legion. Across
the channel, it became Henry.
The feminine form originated in
France. Its first use seems to be II,
the House of Stuart d'AubiCne in
1888 when a daughter was called
Henriet. The court of Catherine dc
Medict was noted for its Henriettes
The name reached England through
the daughter of Henry ". Henriette
Marie, whom the Prayer Book called
Queen Mary. Her godchildren, how
ever. were always addressed as
Henrietta.
Coral is Henrietta's talismanic
stone. 1t will guard her from con-
ta gion and other evil and is said to
have therapeutic value in combating
anemia. Monday is her lucky day
and her lucky number.

Dentistry for All.

Some of the big men in dentistry
are advocating a form of govern
ment dentistry so that rich and
poor alike shall enjoy the advan-
taEes of healthy mouths. During
the mobilization of our forces for
the World War millions of opera
tions were performed on the teeth
of our sailors and soldiers at the
expense of the government. If the
plan can be successfully put into
effect in war times why not now?
DR.. Charles Wolff of New York,
writing in a dental trade magazine.
says the newest and best methods
are not for the poor man today. so
the only thing he can do when he
has a diseased root canal is to
have the tooth eXtracted-a prac-
tiCe which is making us race of
dental Cripples. He says:
1T is as though We were to re-
move the crowded subway cars from
our metropolis because physicians
decided they were unhealthy. and
replace them will. nice new parlor
cars in which q, ride costs 20 cents
instead of ). In dentistry We have
no choice. We cannot lower the
standards of our work to suit the
patients purse; but since we are
professional man and not business
mCn. surely some Cognizance should
be taken of the great body of peo-
Pie who are unablc to pay for mod
crn scientific dcntiStry. True there
are hospitals and dispensaries, but
do you think these people would
accept such service?
1T is unfair to insert in the
mouth of one patient a beautiful
sanitary removable bridge because
he can pay for IT: and in another
fixed bridge which modern science
has proven incorrect, simply be-
cause he is not wealthy. Let us
then by concerted action change
this iniquitous situation"
