MEMS FOR THE MARRIED

An antipodean student Of woman in
the marriage relation comes to some
entertaining though perhaps not en-
tirely justified conclusions. Here are
a few Of them:
The wise woman knows how to De
foolish when her husband wishes to be
clever.
Every woman longs for a romance
but most have to be content with hus-
bands.
Selfshness is a quality in husbands
which prevents wives from getting all
they want.
The wise man doesn't attempt to I'M
derstand women; he merely tries to
get along with them.
A woman is only what men have
made her. This applies particularly to
selfish women.
The happiness of a married couple
doesn't depend on their loving each
other but on their not loving anyone
else.
Every one knows how wonderful a
woman can look, but it is only the
husband who knows how wonderful it
is that she can look so wonderful

ToLp BY The FINGERS
The ambItIous person bias long an

The ambitious person has long fin
gers.
The amlable, easy-golng person has
short fingers.
Large fingers mean slow intellec-
tuaity and common tastes.
Thumbs that curve downward show
shrewdness and mlserliness.
If his fingers are fat, he's lazy. The
same applies to his fancee.
Markedly pointed fingers indicate re-
ligious fervor and imagination.
Small, thin fingers bespeak clever,
acute mind, somewhat given to de-
celt.
A coarse, brutal nature is disclosed
by fingers as large at the tips as at
the roots. -
Lean fingers indicate, simple tastes,
perhaps leaning too much toward pc
nuriousness.
The strength of your will power IS
measured by the length of the upper
joint of the thumb.
Thumbs that are coarse, heavy, and
undeveloped belong to rude and igno-
rant persons.
If your fiance has square fingers
you may count on his being firm IN
his opinions, reasonable and quite an
orderly person.

TRY CL0TURE ON
FIL|BUsTER PLAN
Move Is Proposed at Republican
Caucus on Tariff Measures; Pro-
a. visions for Application
Are Outlined.

Washington, May 25.-Republican
senators will caucus tomorrow on a
proposed cloture rule designed to
break what some republicans de-
clare is a democratic filibuster on
the tariff bill.
The cloture rule was proposed at
a caucus today by Senator Kellogg
of Minnesota. 1t would apply to all
appropriations and revenue bills.
The purpose is to apply it first to
the pending tariff bill.
1t provides that after a revenue
raising, or an appropriation bill has
been before the senate five days, on
motion of 16 senators, the question
of limiting debate shall be put to
the senate. If the majority OF the
senate favor cloture the debate shall
then be limited one hour for each
senator upon the bill itself and ten
minutes on any amendment. Under
existing rules cloture cannot be ap
piled except on two-thirds vote.
No attempt was made to act on
it today.
The caucus adopted resolution
by Senator Curtis, Kansas, con
demning absenteeism by senators al
this time except for unavoidable
causes and authorizing the sergeant
alarms to compel attendance.

ASK RED CROSS
TO HELP LOCATE
LOST RELATIVES

The Grady county chapter of the

to assist In locating Thelma and
Mary Schaeffer who are believed to
be somewhere in Oklahoma.
The whereabouts of the girls, be-
lieved to be about IS and 20 years
of age respectively, is being sought
by Pvt. Linton Stephens of the
United States army a patient in the
U. S. public health service hospital
No. 60, Oteen, N. C.
According to communication
just received by Mrs. A. h. Rishel,
chapter secretary, the two girls are
the soldiers nieces, orphan children
of his sister. The mother died about
IA years ago while the family was
living in Georgia, the communica-
tion states. The last time Stephens
heard of his nieces they were In
Oklahoma en- route with their faith
er, George Schaeffer, to Pasadena,
Cal. He does not know whether the
father and children ever arrived In
California.
"The sick soldier is very anxious
to find these girls Mrs. Rishel
says. "If this notice should reach
the young girls, or any one who
knows them, they are asked to come
to Red Cross headquarters, in the
city hall, for further information"

RAPs MOB RULE
Depores Nine Lynchings In State In

Laws to Handle Cases
Outside Own County.
(Ry The United Press.l

Austin, Texas, May Ex-Governor
Pat M. Neff broke his silence re-
garding the nine Texas lynchings in
May late yesterday and issued a
statement unreservedly condemning
mob law.
The chief executive suggested that
the laws be changed so that men,
bers of mobs could be tried in coun-
ties other than that in which the
mob acted.
Never in the history of Texas has
such wave of lynchings occurred
as during this month. Nine times
mobs acted in south and east Texas.
The governors statement said:
"The growing tendency of mob
law is indeed sad comentary on
our civilization.
Each person accused of crime
has a right to his day in court. To
deny him this right is contrary to
our Anglo-Saxon civilization"

bill.
Unless the republicans can unite
on the McCumber plan of deferred
bonus payments with loan provisions
or the Smoot paidup insurance
plan, without any loan or cash pro-

be able to force adoption of either
