How Ladies Improve
Looks!

MANY ladies. old and young, suffer
a round of torture with their nerves,
and many are so frail, thin and blood
less that their splendid features are
lost sight of. while a vain attempt to
conceal the angularity of the figure
deceives no one but themselves and
really excites the pity or ridicule of
the world" said well known largely
employed practicing physician, in a
recent lecture at a young ladies' col
lege. 81 do not mind exposing a lit
tie secret of mine to all such. as it
can do no harm and may result in
much happiness and health. 1t is
simply this: Any thin. bloodless. nerve
tortured man or woman can become
as fit as the fittest by taking regularly
for several months an easily obtained
pharmaceutical product known by the
profession and pharmacists as three
grain kypo-nuclane tablets, put up in
sealed packages with directions for
home use."-Adv.

New York, May 13.-Revival of
gossip regarding a possible bolt from
the Republican ranks and the forma-
ton of a new third party has led to
speculation among political observers
regarding the effect of this contin-
gency on the Chicago convention.
Senator Hiram Johnson, about
whom this talk centers, has declared
repeatedly that he will not be a party
to such a revolt. Some of his strong
est supporters are not SO certain, how
ever, that the Californian will be able
to control his own destiny.

Several veteran politicians profess
to see in the renewal of third party"
rumors the shadow of a club that may
be welded by Johnson's followers at
Chicago. They figure it out thuswise:

BANNER WEEK FOR CROPS
Haln and Sunshine Bring Out
Growing Grains and Gardens in
State.

This was a banner week for kan
sas crops, with temperatures and sun
SHINE close to normal and rains that
were general and frequent. The
southwestern counties received their
first soaking rain since last October
The total fall of moisture for the week
exceeded an inch in many places and
was ample in almost every county,
while the period of warmth and sun
shine with which the week closed was
especially fine to bring out Vegetation
that had been tagging all spring. An
other week of such conditions will ad-
vance vegetation to such an extent
that it will be almost up with the sea-
son.
Conditions were practically ideal for
wheat, which is now jointing in all but
a few western counties, is in the boot
in many central counties, and making
a growth that is entirely satisfactory
in all parts. Conditions were almost
equally good for oats and barley tho
they would be benefited by more sun
shine.
The ground dried out sufficiently to
permit of farm work on several days
and corn planting was well started in
the northern and western counties and
is from rs to 100 per cent completed
in the south-central and southeastern
counties. where it is coming up salts
factorily.
Good Roadway was made with gar
dens and truck patches. Early pota-
toes are coming up well, but more
sunshine would benefit all such crops.
Planting cane and grain sorghums
has begun in the more southern coun-
ties.
Pastures are growing well and are
good enough to support livestock in all
parts, except some of the northwest
ern counties, where they have been
held back by unseasonably cold wealth

ishing and almost ready to cut in the
eastern half of the state.
Apples, where not killed by the Sc

treasurer's office was closed nearly a

The strong box was opened by an ex-

In addition to the securities held in
the vault, many of the important

MYTHoMANiA

Most persons are familiar with the habit of some children have Of telling an imaginary tale of their own inven- tion as if 1t were fact
 Professor Dupre says this some times persists as the raconteurs grow older It is a sort of intellectual inn maturity, often in contrast to the rest of the mentality. He says it is Q disease, this more or less voluntary and conscious tendency to invent myths to be told as fact. Is
 Professor Dupre calls 1t mytho- mania.
 Others have given it an uglier word
 But that does not change the fact, or deny that a person who tells such myths may require the attention of a physician. It was not long ago that all insane persons were treated as criminal.
 Mythomania in it's morbid form is characterized by a lack of finality in the thing told, the undue prolonga- ton of the narrative itself, and it's inadeQuacy to convey an idea from the mind of the mythomaniac to the mind of the listener.
 That being so the prudent person who has a story to tell aBd who does not wish 10 be thought a mytho- maniac, had better make his story pointed and cut it short.
