YES, THERE is A WEAKER SEX
Perusal of the Daily Papers Viii
Prove 1t to Anybody Who May
Be in Doubt

A New England professor recently
raised quite a powwow over the ques-
ton: is There a Weaker SeX?" If
the professor is lookeni for informa
ton we VIII promptly say yes there
is looking for information we Will
promptly sty yes there is a weaker
sex.
To arrive at this conclusion we
have scanned the daily papers and
have round several cases which prove
our point. We will mention just a
few. If the professor delves into the
matter with an analytical mind he
will doubtless decide which sex is the
weaker.
Mr.. Amiel w. Finkbinder. a we'll
known attorney, appeared in court
and said that his wife had chastised
him so severely with a. stove poker
that he could not go to his office. This
happened because he criticised the
salad they had for dinner the night
before
Mr. Terrence Mulvaney was drag
ged into the station house ii total
wreck One eye was closed and the
other was taking no particular inter-
est in passing events. His wife accom-
panied him. According to discon-
nected story told by the victim, it ap-
pears that his wife struck him with
cook stove, hitting him on the head
and smashing the stove, which cost
$25 when new.
Mr.. Spug Hawkins, who claims to
be a burglar by profession, has filed
articles in voluntary bankruptcy,
claiming that his business has been
ruined on account of the fact that his
Wife will not dll9w him to go out
nights. She ties him firmly 10 bed
post at six o'clock every night and
does not let him out until morning
There are many other cases, but if
the professor will read these he will
be convinced there is weaker SEX

Use MORE FRUIT
jackson Miss. Daily News)

Jackson Miss. Daily News)
Oranges and grapefruit are selling
this winter at lower prices than for
several years.
1t appears that just as these de-
licious fruits were last to advance
under war conditions they have been
first to return to pre-war levels.
In trade circles it is said that the
present prices for oranges and grape
fruit are so low many of the growers
are sustaining actual losses on this
produce and haul to market than any
previous one.
In line with the old proverb, "Tis
i'll wind that blows nobody good,
the prevailing low prices of citrus
fruits afford housekeepers the op-
portunity to save money by using
oranges and grapefruit in liberal
quantities for the benefit and pleasure
of their folks.
The health ana food values of
grapefruit and oranges have been
fully established by dependable in
vestigations. The United States de-
partment Of agriculture found them
to contain more units of food values
than beef juice, oatmeal cruel, oysters
and other common articles of diet.
Oranges and grapefruit are useful
in many ways besides the utilization
as breakfast fruits that is so general.
They can be substituted to great adj
ventage for more expensive fruits and
food products in many forms of cook
cry and |confection, cakes, pastries,
salads, sauces, desserts and ices.
Evidently now is good time for
the average family to buy freely and
eat oranges and grapefruit. There
is reason to believe that not for a
long time if ever will they again be
sold so low as at present. Most retail
fruit dealers have cut the prices to
correspond with the wholesale quota.
tons. In buying these fruits, better
satisfaction will be had if the adver-
tised brands are called for and insist
ed upon.
