READ YOUR CHARACTER
The Grown of Justice
By Digby Phillips, Copyrighted 1921

The crown of justice here referred to is not a figuration reward of a virtue. It is the possession of certain mental faculties on which the sense of justice is founded. It's a bump in a certain location on what is known as the crown of the head.
 Suppose you put a No. 2 hat on a No. head, or a rather large cup, or a small bowl. Suppose you placed it squarely on top of the head, and then showed it backward to a slight tilt. Now observe the head from the side, and note where the middle of the rim of the crown comes. That's where the bump of justice, or as it is sometimes called, conscientiouness is located. In making a study of a stranger it is, of course advisable to do all this mentally to save him embarrassment.
 When the head is well developed at the point indicated, you can make up your mind that the person is conscien- tious.
 But don't assume that this person would carefully refrain from all ac- tions which your yourself would con- sider dishonorable, unfair or inconsid- crate. A person can be conscientious only in the light of his understandine his training and his experience, and before you can forecast with any great accuracy what he will do under given 1 circumstances. you must find cut something of his principals. What the bump indicates is that he has them People whose heads are poorly devel- oped at this spot are those whe are not bothered greatly with principles | though very often they have a good substitute in a keen sense of self re- spect which keeps them from doine many things which others avoid as s matter of principle.

~Its funny" declared Bobby one night after dinner, ':but there ain't anybody likes very much to go to the dentist. Now, there's Mamie kel- ly; she's just crazy to go most any place, and she just hates it..
 q am afraid I don't see anything very odd about that his father said. T can think of older folks who are not keen about the dentists chair. :"
 "Yes, but that's different" Bobby replied. Nobody gives em any thing for going. You can bet told the gang that if I was them l bet I'd go quick enough. Now, there's Stubby, who liver over on Aunt Mary's street. He's got a new brother"
 T suppose he had to take him to the dentist, is that ii? ?"
 "Him?'' sniffed Bobby. 'gee, should say not! What do you think? He ain't got any teeth at all, not one! He's aw- full cute not any biggern Susie Her. ricks doll honest, and Stubby he likes to roll him around in one of these here baby carriages, too, if we'll give him marbles or some other old thing we can't use when it's so cold"
 q think I see Stubby with the lar gest collection of marbles when sum- mer comes,' laughed his father. May. be then marbles won't seem so use less.'
 "Oh, we'll" said Bobby uneasily. T ain't going to be summer for perfec age, and anyhow maybe I'll have mort | allowance by then, everybody's getting more money these days.

MUST FIND AND APPLY CURE.

With the sending home of part of the federal troops that were ordered isto West Virginia and every indication that the situation in West Virginia would remain quiet and the trouble makers disperse, it is perfectly evident that something more than the checking of the tnsurrection lt going to be re- 6uired to adequately meet the situation.
 Significant is the claim that Is made at this time that the uprising was not spontaneous but that it was the re- suit of long laid plans Previous affairs in other years show that whether it had been well organized or not it was fin keering with the spirit which it has been known to prevail there for some little time and that whether it broke out itself or was famed the flame was easily developed.
 Nothing is plainer, however, than the fact that now peace has been establish ed there only through the employment of federal troops steps must be taken to guard against future outbreaks.

which the children still remember

Miss Galbreath told of the CORE

Washington. The pupils of a Pinellas

An amusing incident related. by

foreign children was sent to hospi-

shipment of washclothes meant for
the soldiers went speeding on the way
