pes of other peoles we Americans lit
tie realize how simple our meals are.
The English Christmas dinner is
amazing in its array of meats and
side dishes.
A typical dinner IN the ordinary
English household would begin with
soup, never with a fruit cocktail, and
goes on through fish, an entree, the
remove" roast, salad sweets, sa-
worry, dessert, and finally black
coffee.
The menu is long and complicated
Mock Turtle Soup
Baked Fillets of Sole
Chicken Creams Brussels Sprouts

A HUSBAND TO MARCIA

Where did you hear all that?"
81 have always felt it was only
right, but a speaker at the club to-
day made it very plain that women
who did not demand it as their right
belittled themselves.
John knew Marcia never had
thought of such a thing until she had
heard the woman she spoke of pro-
mulgate the idea, but he asked:
80 you think you should have half
of my salary?'
yes" A light of conquest in her
eyes. She evidently thought it was
going to be easy to persuade him.
And what do you do for me that
should give You half of all earn?
And what will you do with it?''
'Why, 1 keep your house, don't I?
And-and / keep your clothes mended

You mean pay the maid to do the

What do YOU do that you should de-

sort of desperation.
'Then you'd pay all the bills of the
home with your half?"
mo, indeed! What would 1 have
left if did,"
What I haye-nothing.
But you don't understand, John. A
wife is entitled to it,
Perhaps if wife gives her hus-
band children. If she keeps his home
economically and, if necessary, does
the work or part of it. If she helps
him to earn his money by giving him
a restful, happy home. Then perhaps
she IS entitled to half or more. But

HOLLYWOOD, Cal.-Dance your
way to perfect health on the sea-
chore-and in bathing suit!
Just a little message to everybody,
from Beth Becker. noted Denishawn
dancer. who practiced before she
started preaching it.
Seven years ago Miss Becker was
wan and sickly-an invalid-due to
a cyclone accident in Omaha, Neb.
Then she moved to the Pacific
coast and went in for seashore romp-
ing in a bathing suit.
She calls what happened "a mira
cle."
In ten months the paleness had
faded out; glow of health took its
place, and today Miss Becker is a
statuesque beautiful professional
dancer. She has appeared in over
400 public performances.
So much for the health angle.
And, as to beauty-well, she was
given the title of 1.-THE Perfect Blond
of the Pacific Coast" "a an artists
ball in Los Angeles.
"All the world would be better off
in bathing SUITS says Miss Becker
Dancing on the sands in the shall
low salt water, in pink fleshlings
fresh decorated in seaweed, hair
streaming, every muscle at work-it
gives one the feeling of freedom and
love of life which is simply indescrib-
able
Immoral? How ridiculous! Moth
ing could be more inspirational and
uplifting than well developed hui

What do you mean, John? Stand

Iiloquized as he went on alone, and in

thought He wasn't the only man
who suffered from a too strenuous
wife
Marcia was developing new and
strange theories of life and living.
John concluded it was due to the in
nuence of the clubs she attended, or
rather to the sentiments to which the
clubwomen gave expression. One
night she remarked:
what fools some women arel They
seem to believe that after marriage
the romance continues"
Then you do not agree with them.
John asked, rather amused at this
new development.

nile settle down to a comfortable COM

of sentiment. so he was not at all
worried. But there was another phase.

of them. The one thing he did fear
was that Shadow the Weasel would
hear where he was. That thought
bothered him a great deal. One morn
ing Sammy Jay just happened along.
He saw Reddy Fox creeping up be-
hind some bushes on the edge of the
cornfield. and at onceSammy began
to scream as he always does when he
thinks he can spoil Reddy's hunting.
Reddy looked up at him and showed
all his long teeth but Sammy only
grinned and screamed the louder.
Then Reddy walked away with
great deal of dignity, for he knew
that it wasn't of the least use to try
to hunt while Sammy Jay was about.
When he had disappeared in the
Green Forest Sammy returned to the
cornfield, and there he found Chat
terer hard at work.
I'm much obliged, Sammy, for
driving that nuisance away; he
bothers me a great deal, and I've got
to do a lot of work yet to fill the
storehouse before it is too late" said
Chatterer as.he hurried to the hollow
rail with his mouth full of corn

manded Sammy Jay. 4 thought you

TOOK BEER SAMPLES IN

 Of alcohol are sold was made Thursday
 when Federal Agents Isa6ore Machol and
 Courtiand E. Brown visited every saloon
 in New London. taking samples of as
 many brands of beer as was on sale in
 the places.
 Each sample taken was Iabaled and
 poisoned within night of the proprietors
 of the place. Bichloride of mercury tab lets were placed in each s;\ 1ple to insure
 against further fermentation, and to maintain the liquid in the state in which 1t was seized until it can be properly ! analysed. Thus 3 saloon keeper whose goods might upon analysis be found to contain more than the IimSed amount o1 alcohol is unable to put forth the aihi that the liquid probably fermented be- tween the time of it's seizure and the d2te it was analysed. ss
 The sanlh+s taken here Thursday wifi be sent, to the internal revenue bureau for analysis but what action will follow in cases where excess alcohol is found is not definitely known. It is expected however that Director Mackenzie will re- sort to the injunction power granted un- der the terms of >Ile VoIstead act, and will seek by means Of the injunction to close up all places where samples from which, upon analysts, show more than one-half O. one ger cent.

RESULTS IN
 GUARDING AGAINST DrpHrHERfA

The state department of public health
 is calling attention to statistics in re-
 lation to diphtheria, in Connecticut, which
 show the success of the efforts that are
 being made St the instance of the depart
 ment to prevent fatalities resulting from
 the disease From January to August q. 1920. the number of cases of diphtheria reported in Connecticut was 2,005 and the
 death rate per 100 was 7.S. In the same period for 1921 there were 2,00o cases and the death rate was only 50. It wil' thus be seen that while the number of eases. were four more the death rate droppcd 2.s.
 In commenting on this satisfactory re- suit the report of the department says: Many factors have assisted in this
 very low rate in dsphtheria. Parents are calling physicians early !! in the sickness of children. Physicians are making early diagpos- 1 es. ss'ss .4,.s
 'Diphtheria antitoxin Is promptly ad- :, ulinistered in sufficient doses. i Last but not least, the work done by physicians. health officers and public health nurses sn finding cases of diphthe-
