READ YOUR CHARACTER

 People whose foreheads slant back ward and whose chins are what the world calls strong or aggressive, that is to say, are square and prom inent form a classification that is diff ferent from the pure cdncave, the pure convex and the perpendicular profile But you should keep in mind that the popular understanding Of strong and weak chin Is misleading.
 The so-caIIed strong" chin IS mere ly the chin Of careful and decisive sc- tion. Combined with the slanting fore- head Of quick thought (and generally, though not always, an eQrlne nosel, it denotes the kind of person to whom you should always play the practical and personal advantages of the thing you are trying to get him to do. You may talk a triffe of theory to this kind of person, but keep it simple and don't let 1t tntrdue too much. Stick more to facts, and appeal to a persons love for practical advantage and pow l er..

 One look into this drawer would ssure you of the greatest necessity for such a place, for there We find all of his Sunday school papers strung with yarn into a nea. booklet.

Toy paper monsy. Easter cards and Valentine, 8 box Of nuts, bolts and washers for fixing his coaster wagon, scissors, crayon. bits of string. yarn, Q blunt needle and dozen smooth pebbles are but part of the miscellany in 1 that drawer.
 Occasionally. we clean out the drawer rearranging things and discarding thos ! that have little value. This gives tn child an idea of the present value ot thing and he is tle judge. with only suggestions as to what things shall be thrown out One day, when other children were playing in the house with our boys, noticed that Jerome became very nervous because the children were rummagfne through his drawer.

KEEPING AeREENrNrn

Marked Ia the contrast between the action of the New York pYessmen in going out on 6 strike over an arbitr&- tiaq award and that of the troIleymen if Worcester and Springfield in accept ing It. In botE Instances 1t was a greed that there should be an arbitration of the points in dispute and t was also agreed that the award should be re- spscted whatever 1t happened to De. In each instance there was ar award call Ing for a reduction in wages because Of changed conditions and some changes in regard to working rules.
 It is to the great credit of the Massa- chusetts trolleymen that they have ac ceDted the award as made and as they promised to do Tn advance. Had the award Eons the other way, 1t being re. alized of course that the award was based upon the facts as presented tc tho arbitration board, they would have expected the companies to have met the requirements. Under such conditions there Is only one honorable thing to dc and when t is not done those who fa to keep their agreement cannot expect Co obtain public support.
 Although 1t was the first break 1T agreements, between pressmen and pub lishers fn New York for 90 years. those who naads t possible are certain in ti1n( to recognize the harm that has beer done their organization. When there ic a failure to live up to agreements, quite the same as when there is a refusal tl carry out 2. contract that Is honestly entered into there Is a reflection upo1 those responsible which is not easy q overcome.
 The Massachusetts trol1eymen are tol lowing the admirable example previous ly set in numerous instances of beins agreesbie to q fair adjustment, ar5 abiding by awards which they zgree, to respect.

T have gained thirty pounds since taking Tanlac and never felt better in my life than do now. Mother says she hasn't seen me looking so well since I was girl said Mrs. Elva Caulkins, 303 Blandina St.. Utica N. Y.
 For eighteen long years I suffered from stomach trouble and sluggish liver, and during all that time I hal dly knew what well day was. As almost starved myself trying to avoid indi- gestion, I fell off until l was hardly more than shadow, and was so weak 1 was barely able to drag myself around the house. As a result of my long suffering became almost 8 nerv- ous wreck.
 This was the condition was Tn when I started taking Tanlac, but to- day am strong and well, feeling and looking like a different person from what I did a short time ago. It is no wonder to me that so many people praise Tanlac to the skies. Tanlac is sold in Norwich by Nation- al Drug Stores Corp. and Taftville Pharmacy and in Plainfeld by F. L. Mercier; Charles R.
