THE MAIL BAG

To the Editor: From dispatches is
conveyed the information that the
gland transportation operation on a
prominent New York man was COM
plete success; that he lis reported in
high spirits" and completely reju-
venated." Some months ago a New
York physician underwent similar
operation and came out of it "a new
man"
The use Of a gland from the eye
of a rabbit has been used for years
as means Of restoring lost cyesight.
And of course, a. monkey gland oper-
alton. If successful, ought to afford
the ordinary old person a lot Of new
activity. Let me suggest other forms
of glands which might be inserted In,
the human body with beneficial re-
suits.
How about the substitution OF snake
glands in the bodies Of prospective
public officials? Flea glands would do
for college athletes, and. lastly, cha
meleon glands for happers.
Are your glands working, Bin?
HALE AND HEARTY.
To the Editor: So far as begging
goes, 1t is generally regarded as
legitimate, so is sanctioned in most
places by the authorities. In a few
cities it is banned; others allow it
after compliance with certain specif-
cations of the law, and in still other
places it is unrestricted.
For the last few years individuals
who term themselves as wounded ex-
service men have been occupying va
rious street corners and in this guis7
have found it profitable experience.
A man who was wounded or disabled
in the service of his country natural
ly has a claim for assistance and
should be helped In some way. In
most cases the Government has seen
fit 20 take care of the men who really
needed assistance. In some cases it is
acknowledged that the Government
has made mistakes.
But there really is little excuse for
the wholesale begging which is now
prevalent. Conditions have been bet
tered, the Government has made every
effort to compensate and care for dis
abled ex-service men, and most Of
them have received disqualification
There's nothing highly honorable
about begging, either, especially if
there is an alternative.

Seven Chances" is the nghtest kind

vision of the will he has only twenty
four hours TO get wife. Funny thing
how twelve millions does not appeal
to some girls. OF course he gets the
money and the right girl.
This comedy Is smart at times, but
it drags too much while the author
becomes brilliant again. Aldrich Bow

away with the comedy honors in the
first act when he Is deplorins the
fact he is a married man.

Julia Hoyt plays one of thu sever

few things she has to do. Julia Nc

chief feminine role pleasantly.

to follow with regard to her brides
bouquet? Must she distribute it TO
Der bridesmaids?
Alt is a pretty custom for the
bride to throw her bouquet among the
brides maids as she mounts the stairs.

flowers or she may have rose beads
made from the petals or she may dis
pose of it in any way she desires.
