FOOD REQUIREMENTS OF
cANARlES VERY SIMPLE

The food requirements of canaries
are very simple, according to special
lists of the Biological Survey, United
States Department of Agriculture. The
PRIME requisite is supply of canary
seed to which is added small guam.

usually buy this seed ready mixed

How to Win a Husband.

The conversation turned on the rea.
sons why husbands married their
wives. One man stated that he mar
ried his wife for the alluring manner
in which she drank water, tea or
coffee. Over the brim of the glass
or the cup, he said, her eyes, at
other times not unusual looked abb
.solutely irresistible.
This particular woman is far from
pretty but her charming habit won
her a. Worthwhile chap as hus-
band.
Many women realize that the race
for a husband is not always to the
beauty and have cultivated marry
ing tricks. These are little gestures,
wiles, tricks and habits before which
the unsuspecting male loses his heart
and which really bring out the best
points in the girl. The wise girl does
her best to camouflage her weak spots
and bad habits, so that the good spots
will be in the limelight.
Your plain woman, with hair which
reveals high lights under the suns
caress, marches hatless; or if the
lamplight is in tune with her skin,
she is forever in its softening radi-
ance.
Lacking a pretty face, but possess
ing dainty feet, a woman calls atten-
ton to the latter, much in the same
way as Snowman displays his wares
Shoes of bewildering variety and hue,
short skirts and extra silken hose are
worn by her.
Hands, slim, white graceful things,
are perhaps a plain woman's most
formidable weapon in forcing the mar
riage door.
First. watch a pretty woman, with
ugly ones, doing anything where
hands play an important and visible
part; then watch a clever, plain wom-
an, possessing dainty fingers, at the
same Job. Indescribably graceful and
fascinating can be the play OF pretty
fingers, whether they are welding a
knife and fork, holding crochet
needle, playing the piano, or working
a typewriter. See them pat strand
of hair into place behind her ear,
watch them delicately stir cup oil
agrant coffee, note their eloquence
when their owner talks, or the way
one slim hand lies on the shoulder OF
her dancing partner.
The clever girl knows the advan-
tage of coolrs, too. The girl whose
ewes are blue will enhance their blue
ness by wearing blue, the girl with
fair hair shows off the fair hair TO
its fullest perfection by wearing
green jumper or blouse.
In sport, too, marrying tricks" are
common. Golf, tennis, swimming all
provide good openings for the enter
prising woman.

A graphic word picture Of condi-

dren are in a state bordering on
starvation was drawn yesterday by
DR.. O. Alfred sac. newiy-sppointed
Minister from China TO the United
States. in q statement prepared for
the China Famine Fund.
Minister sac said one Of the iarg-
est wheat-producing districte in
China is being ravaged by the
famine. IL was from this distrfc'.
he said. that the largest amount OF
-four exported from China to relieve
the food shortage in Europe during
the latter years Of the war was
sent to aid the allies.
The Intensity of the famine.
said DR.. SEE. may be judged from
the fact that In some regions not
q single drop Of rain fell between
the autumn of 1919 and the fall OF
1890. Consequently very fertile
land was turned into q desert. But
the seriousness of the calamity can
not adequately be grssped unless
we realize that 100000 human
beings are threatened with death
from starvation in one district
