WELL-KEPl HANDS As
MARK OF BREEDING

Every woman ut heart wishes TO
look like a lady, be she i.apper or
dame Of settled years, and there are
certain noints IN appearance that are
REGARDED as hall marks o. breeding,
chief among these being the hands.
Now for the woman who does her
own housc-work, and whose n2no is
legion. the only possible way in which
she can hope to keep hor hands
smooth and white is ly learning To
wear gloves while she work..
The average house wife is very
careless about the appearance Of her
hands in which one can scarcely
blame her as she usually Is too busy
TO spend much time over her own
But If she will take the
trouble TO secure two pairs of gloves
she will soon find her hands improy-
ing. Rubber gloves should be worn
when water is To lie used and lcosc
canvas ones fer sweeping and dust
ing.
At first gloves will seem awkward

Something to
Think bOut
YES" AND mo"
By F. II. WALKER

THESE two little words. yes and
L no. with which men have been
wrestling for ages, are vocables OF
enormous meaning. capable of settling
- all the simple and complex problems
in life. when used with utmost wisdom
and likewise with utmost caution.
In Washington, the statesmen who
were debating and adjusting the ques-
ton of limited armament found
it difficult at times to apply yes and
no" to the interrogations which
naturally arose in the discussion, and
in which the whole world is vitality in
terested.
To use these monosyllables at the
right time and in the proper place is
the earnest wish of every fair-mlnded
man or woman who would have peace
and goodwill on earth"
But to do SO in truth and mercy
when dissenSion is rife and righteous
ness seems to be tumbling noisily like
mountains in an earthquake. requires
the wisdom of solomon and the pa
thence of Job, accompanied with divine
guidance.
How many lives of promising young
men and women have heen hlighted
by the indscriminate playing of yes"
and mo-?
How many nations have gone to war
through the utterance in anger of a
ruthless yes" when complacent mo"
authoritatively spoken, might have
saved millions of precious lives, un-
told sorrows and inestimable treas
ure?
He or she who makes merry with
these small words without giving
thought to the immensely of their pow
er to create or destroy, is risking
everything in this life, and possibly
in the life to come.
Though these words may seem but
mere pigmies in the worlds vocabulary.
they are really veritable giants, ter
rible i'm their wrath, but cheering, con-
selling and inspiring in their love.
II matters not how exalted or lOwly
You are, or whether you be rich or
poor, strong or weak, you cannot at
any time in your dealings with others
afford to summon up Eyes" or mo"
without first giving serious thought OF
what may likely follow.
In all circumstances it will be found
advisable to use neither word until
you are absolutely sure OF your ground
and know your own heart.
Do that in all sincerity and Ives"
and mo" will be found faithful friends

UNEARTHED ToLTEc
TREASURE

Students OF archaeology and kim
dred subjects in Mexico are deeply
interested in a remarkable story
which comes from Colima, the CAPT
tai of the state OF that name, which
borders Jalisco.
According TO the story, the French
archeologist. Count Brisac de Saint
Denis, who died recently in Paris,
while doing research work in Mexico
in 1910, came upon the tomb of an
ancient Toltec king near the town OF
Comola, situated a short distance
from Colima.
1t IS circumstantially asserted in
narrating this tale that In this tomb,
along with the mummified body of
the king, were dazzling collection
of pearls. opalN and gold dust of an
estimated value OF 10 million dollars.
1t is stated that the count was able
to get all this enormous fortune out
OF the country and that it made him
independently wealthy.
An investigation of the strange re-
port is to be made by Mexican arch
eologists. Beyond the fact that il is
well-known that the count really did
spend some time in investigating the
ancient ruins of a prehistoric race
near Comola. there is no authentic
public knowledge here that he made
any such discovery.-New York
