To Stop Smoking

To the Editor Of tho Ercnin0 Public Ledger:
SRI would appreciate It II you could
suggast to me q way to aid me In stopping
the habit Of smoking. j. j. STRANG.
Philadelphia. Aug. 1G. 1921.
Tho use of will power is tho most effective
means Of stopping the tobacco habit. For
those with wnom the habit is second nature
because of O firm and tenacious grip cn the
trystem, and who cannot stop smoking alto
Eother, It is suggested the habit be given
up by degrees. For three months go with
out tobacco in tho foren-cn. Then begin
10 give up tobacco in tho afternoon. Do this
for three months. smoking only In the eve
ming after o'clock. After six months OF
r,oderate use stop smokinE abruptly II you
wish to stop entirely, In this way one will

OrIoIn of "Round Robin"

To tho Editor Of the Evening Pubic ledger;
'SirIPicaso toll mo what Is tho origin OF
tba oxnresslon ''round robin. and little
something about II. r. A. D
philadelphia August IA. 1921.
Many plausible theories have been ad-
yarcCd FOR the origin OF tho round robin, but
the most generally accepted IS mat THIS
device of signing Il protest or remonstranoe
In a circle whereby the order OF signing Is
concealed originated In France. Official and
military circles IN Franco have always been
noted for their Tnnctlllous eNacuon or the
rormal!ties and courtesIes due from tho sub
altern to his superors in rank. For the
subordinate to protest against his superior
wos therefore. but little less than mad
moss, Hence the origin OF the round
robln'-in French "rond ruban," round
tutton-by which tho Cffcnse of the in.
diyidual was skiltuly concealed in the gem
eral protest. The most celebrated round
robin in the English language originated at
n dinner given at the house OF the famous
portrait painter. Sir Joshua Reynolds. in
LONDON. In tho company present were Ed
mund Burke, Edward Gibbon and several
otbor celebrated men In the world OF let
tcrs all Of whom were friends and ac-
ouaintances OF Oliver Goldsmith. Tho
epitaph written for the wel-loved poet by
Dr. Samuel Johnson became the subject OF
conversation, and various emendations were
suggested, which Il was agreed should be
submitted TO tho Doctors consideration. But
the question was who should have the cour-
age to propose them to him. At last II was
suggested that there could be no way as
good AS that OF the round robin. The docu-
ment was written and signed by all present,
requesting him 10 amend the cptaph to
oliver GoldsmltI in Westminster Abbey. and
suggested that II should be written in Eng
ush and not in Latin. Johnson accepted
the round robin IN n kindly spirit.

HORACE T. LONG.
Philadelphia. August 10. 1921.
THE LAND OF BEGINNING AGAIN
wish that there were some wonderful
place,
Called the Land OF Beginning Again.
Where all our mistake1 and all our heart
aches.
And all our poor. selhsh griefs
Could be dropped. like shabby old coat at
tho door,
Ard never be put on again.
I wish we would come on It all unawares
Like hunter who finds II lost trail
And wish that the one whom our blind
ness had done
The greatest injustice of all
Could be at the gate. like an old friend that
waits
For the comrads he's sladdest to hail.
We should find all the things We intended
to do.
But forgot and remembered-too latei
Little praises unspoken, little promises
broken.
ANA all OF the tnOu5and ana ono
Little duties neglected that might have per
feCted
Tho Gay for one less fortunate.
It wouldn't b. possible not to be kind
In tho Land OF Beginning Again,
And the ones We misjudged and the on ga
whom grudged
Their moments of victory here
Would find in the grasp OF our loving hand
clasp
Mere than penitent lips could explain.
For what had been hardest we'd know had
been best
And what had seemed loss would be gain;
For there isn't thing that will not take
wing
When we've faced it and laughed 1t
away;
And think that tho laughter is most what
we're after
In tho Land OF Beginning Again.
SO I wish that there were some wonder full
place
Called tho Land OF Beginning Again.
Where all our mistakes and all our heart
aches.
And all OF our poor. selfish griefs
Could be dropped like a rhabby old coat at
the door
And never put on again.

follows:
A wood road and a good road
And road by land and sea:
A high road and n byroad
And a road by land and lea.
A fair road and a bare road.
And n road by vale and hill;
A deep road and steep road
And a foot road sweet and still.
A town road and a down road.
And tho Kings road broad and free
There's but ono road in all the world,
The way that leads to thee.

The DOG Days"

TO tho Editor Of the Evening Public Ledoer,
Sir-Will you kindly explain what ''dog
days are when they begin and end, and
why they are so called? DAVID r. LANE,
Philadelphia. August 49, 1921.
Tho ''dog days are about the time of
the heIacal rising of the dog star. Various
dates for the beginning and end of the
season are defended by various authorities
Pliny fixed the beginning Of the period az
July 1o but II the season Is Of BAbylonian
origin. ms some historians maintain, It comes
In early summer. Probably the weight Of
modern opinion favors tho period from July
to August IL. These days are supposed
to be the hottest and most unwholesome OF
the Rummer.

The Best Wife

TO the Editor Of the Evening Public Lcd1er.
Slr-The duties OF wife In which she
should receive training prior to her marriage
were clearly defined by "a T." In con.
nection with this I would suggest n simlla r
training for the masculine sex. which would
enable man to appreciate a capable woman
instead OF being bored in her company.
Usually men OF this, kind will talk for
hours on their ideal OF wife, and when
1t comes to the point of selection they are
attracted by the one who appeals to them
physically and don't care whether she is
abIe to boil water or darn a sock Then
they begin to tell of the demerits OF matri-
