GREAT MEN AND GREAT DAYS. BY
Stephen LAuzanne. New York: d.
Appleton & Co.
The striking pen pictures in
which this distinguished French
newspaper editor has captured the
personalities OF the great men Of
the day will appeal at once by their
fidelity. M. Lauzanne has had un-
rivaled opportunities, both in this
country and in France, for seeing
the historical story of the time un-
fold itself. Intimately associated
with them. he has been present
with men like Roosevelt, Wilson,
Clemenceau, Joffre, Foch, Lloyd
George, and Poincare when the for
tunes OF the allied countries were
in the balance.
NJ. Lauzanne's descriptions OF the
men and events recorded in this
book fascinate by their vividness
and simplicity. The studious reader
will acquire Increased knowledge
Of the leaders in the great war, and
cannot but come to a better under
standing of the character of the
French people and their leaders.

A RUDE ADMIRER-
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

A week or so prior to the date
of a dance given by an organiza-
tion of which i am q member, /
invited q girl to attend as my
partner for the evening. When
the day came called her up to
ask her IL she was prepared, but
her answer was that in the past
four or fve days. not hearing from
me, she had accepted another In
vitation for the evening. In q
momentary fit of anger / hung up
the receiver and said I was through
with her. My sister tells me l was
too hasty? Was /? X. N.
You were indeed Zoo hasty. The
girl probably waited in nervous
expectation for you to verify the
invitation. which you might have
given and forgotten. And in an
attempt to protect her own pride
against having to do this-and It's
been done-she supplied herself
with another engagement. You
were rude and an explanation Ia

Good Teeth
a Necessity
DYoRRHEA is q disease wh,s

DYORRHEA IL . disease which
Is insidiously dangerous not
only because OF the local in
fection and consequent deteriorat-
ing effect upon the teeth and gums.
but also because Of it's effect upon
tho whole system.
This disease is an infection of
the gums and 1t destroys the struc-
ture that holds the teeth In their
sockets.
Pyorrhea begins at. the edges Of
the gums. especially in places
which have been injured. and II can
be caused by a deposit of tartar or
lime which may have been allowed
to accumulate on the teeth In the
course Of time the teeth become
loosened and the sockets where
they are attached become infected.
When the tooth sockets become
infected the bacteria may enter the
system and be carried through the
blood to distant parts Of the body
where they may start serious
trouble. Aside from this danger is
that of losing the teeth altogether
as the infection becomes more seri-
Gus. The most serious diseases in
more remote parts Of the body are
caused by infection at the root tips
of the teeth loosened by p1orrhea.
The bacteria which enter the
blood from the tooth sockets can
clog UP the small blood passages,
thus preventing the proper nourish-
ment Of the tissues In and about
the joints of the body, and causing
various kinds of Inflammation, such
rs rheumatic fever.
The best prevention of this seri-
Gus infection lies In keeping the
teeth free from tartar, by brushing
them regularly. and by visiting the
dentist freQuently.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

Il am in love with a man ten years
my senior. 1 met him just two
weeks before Christmas and he
gave me a very valuable piece of
Jewelry.,
Now, am living with my aunt
and both she and my uncle advise
me to give him up because he Is
SO much older and because / am
too young. MARGUERiTE
Surely you can see this man on
q friendly basis and come In time
to Judge how much he means to
you. Don't plunge into declarations
of love. On the other hand, don't
be melodramatic enough to put this
man out of your life for nothing
but a bit of analyzing that gets
you nowhere.

to the supergovernment created by the League of Nations. This treaty (the four-power treaty. cannot in the language of the Versailles treaty or rather the league be binding until 1t is filed with the secretary of the League of Nations and published. Their governments have nothing to do but with the fnality of making it binding.
 Secondly, and more important, which is final. there is conflict of Jurisdiction This treaty provides for a meeting of the representatives of the four nations to settle matters. Under the League of Nations it is shall be settled by the council and the assembly. There is such a vital conflict of jurisdiction that these subject nations-Cireat Britain, Ja- pan and Franee-must secede from the League of Nations before they can bind themselves to us. We are standing here in bad attitude. We can bind ourselves. They, as sub ject nations, cannot do It. but are subject to the League of Nations and must obey in every controversy what the league decides they can do"

Missouri and Senator Tom Watson of Georgia against it.
 But the greatest danger to the eveatful effectiveness of the four power treaty lies In the League of Nations. It is reported that the League of Nations will oppose it.. The power of the League of Nations is such that it's approval must be forthcoming before England, France and Japan can join the United States in an effort for peace in the Pacific. Senator !. K Shields of Tennessee one of the leading opponents of in- terra tional law in the Senate, so af- frIns.
 At the same time, should England, France and Japan. as members of the league, desire the league to suf- fer them to ally themselves with the United States, it Is possible that the league would do so. For with the United States not a member of the league, England, France and Japan, to all practical purposes, compose the league.
 The situation Is so involved, in other words, that the possibility eE- ists that in the long run the league will swallow the four-power treaty or the idea involved in the treaty will consume the league. Several members of Congress insist that they cannot both stand forever.
 Here is the way Senator Shields states the case; "They (Bngland, France and Japan) owe allegiance
