Measure Your Figure.

A Brazilian art scholar claims to
have discovered now the old masters
of painting and sculpture worked. He
has taken the pictures and shown, by
drawing lines and angles on them, how
the artists gave their compositions
strictly mathematical foundations.
Ancient Egyptian artists had a rule
of proportions based on the ength Of
the middle finger, the distance Of
which was contained 10 times In the
length of the whole body.
Greek artists adopted these proper
lions until it was established that the
face must be a tenth part and the
head an eighth part of the total
height of the body. The face was di-
vided into three equal parts-from the
roots Of the hair TO the root of the
nose from the root of the nose TO it's
point, and from the end of the Gose
to the chin.

Too Much Expected of Milk.

The use Of milk as Il food has been
so extensively exploited by the milk
interests that there exists a somewhat
erroneous idea about it which recent
speaker before the American Pedla-
trio society, is endeavoring to correct
These errors principally concern the
group of children between the ages OF
one and six years. These errors
might be classified under the headings.
i. Prolonged use of milk as an eX~
elusive article Of diet. 2. Increased
quantities of milk given along with
other foods. Milk might not only BIO
used too long as an exclusive article
of diet and in excessive quantities
with other foods but it's nutritional
value might be injured by boiling. The
laity were taught, and rightly so, that
milk was an ideal breeding place for
germs, and that the growth Of these
germs might be inhibited by keep
Ing the milk on ice or the milk might
be brought to boil. The use Of boiled
milk was becoming more prevalent
and many injuries to nutrition oc-
Cured.

"Playful" indeed!

In his book, Flashlights From the
Seven Seas" the Rev. William L..
Stidger, of Detroit, says the Battaks
of Sumatra have what he refers to
facetiously as playful custom of
getting rid of their old men. When a
man gets so old that they think it is
about time for him to tell his last tale,
they put him up a coconut tree. Then
all the young bucks of the village get
together and try TO shake him down.
If he is too feeble to hold on, and
comes down, that is a sign of Heaven
that his days are through, and they
proceed to cook and eat him.

Known by Their Hats.

All the various tribes of Persia are
to be distinguished and recognized by
their headgear. SO, at the capital,
Teheran, there is to be seen greater
assortment of hats and he2dgear than
In any other place in the world. Some
ARE picturesque, some are ludicrous.
The Kurds. of which there are 100000
in the country, wear hat which
looks like an inverted coffee pot,
black, bound round with gay-colored
handkerchiefs. That of another tribe
is of white felt, resembling in shape
a preserving kettle. Hats are ex-
clusively the privilege of mea. Women
do not wear headcovering.

She had risen up out of the pool and
stood knee deep, like a lovely drenched

Upon the bank above them, Willis

fishin' is spoilt! Why'n't you listen

OF Milla he spoke unwittingly the
literal truth. Even with her hair thus

ever; and she was prettiest of all
when she stretched out her hand help
lessly to Ramsey and he led her up
out of the waters. They had plenty Of
assistance to scramble to the top of
the bank, and there Milla was sur
rounded and borne away with great
elacketing and tumult. Ramsey sat
upon the grass in the sun, rubbed his
head, and experimental with his neck
to see if it would "work." The sun
shine was strong and hot; in half an
hour he and his clothes were dry-or
at least "dry enough" as he said, and
except for some soreness of head and
neck, and the general crumple dness Of
his apparel, he seemed to be in all
WAYS rnuch as usual. when shouts and
whistlings summoned all the party to

Ramsey leaned forth over the edge

peered into the Understandable depths

Don't you see it, .Ramsey?' Milla
whispered. Its a great big one.
why, it must be as long as-as your

Ramsey saw nothing but the thick
round curl on Milla's shoulder. That
curl was shot with dazzling fbers of
sunshine. He seemed to be trembling.
L don't see it," he murmured husk-
lily, afraid that she might remove her
hand. Il can't see any fish, Milla.'
She leaned farther out over the
bank. "Why, there, goosie." she whis-
pered. Right there
I can't see it."
She leaned still further, bending
down to point. why, right tn"
AT this moment she removed her
hand from his shoulder. though unwill-
ingly- She clutched at him, in fact,
but without avail. She had been too
amiable.
A loud shrek was uttered by threats
ADLER to vocalize, just then, than Millas,
for in her great surprise she said moth
ing Whatever-the shrek came from
the other girls as AIilla left the crest of
the Overhanging bank and almost hOr
izontally disappeared into the brown
water. There was tumultuOus splash,
and then of Milla Rust and her we'll
known beautifulness there was moth
ing visible in the superficial world, nor
upon the surface Of that creek. The
vanishment was total.
"Saye hern'
Several girls afterward admitted
having used this expression, and little
Miss Floy Williams, the youngest and
smallest member of the class, was
unable to deny that she had said ooh,
God" Nothing could have been more
natural, and the matter need not have
been brought before her with such an
slstence and frequency, during the two
remaining years of her undergraduate
career.
Ramsey was one of those who heard
this exclamation, later so famous, and
perhaps it was what reused him to
herOism. He dived from the bank,
headlOng, and the strange thought in
his mind was II guess this'n show
Dora Yocumu y He should have been
thinking Of Milla, of course, at such
time, particularly after the little
enchantment just laid upon him by
Milla's touch and Miilas curls; and
lac knew well enough that Miss Yocum
was not among the spectators. She

one Of the teachers which was her

Ramsey struck the water hard, and
in the same instant struck something
else harder, Wesley Bender's bundle
of books had given him no such shock
as he received now, and if the creek
bottom had not been of mud, just
there, the top of his young head might
have declined the strain. Half stunned

Opposite him, across the circle, Dora
Yocum stood little in advance of
those near her, for of course she led
the singing Her clear and earnest
voice was distinguishable from all
others, and though she did not glance
toward Ramsey he had a queer feeling
that she was assuming more superior
ity than ever, and that she was Jelly
scornful of him and Milla. The old
resentment rose-he'd SHOW that girl
yet. some day
When the song was over, cheers
were given for the class, ''the good ole
class of Nineteen Fourteen" the
school, the teachers, and for the pic
mic, thus officially concluded; and then
the picnickers, carrying their baskets
and faded wild flowers and other SOU
venirs and burdens, moved toward the

take them back into the town. RAM

"Why, no." said Milla Anyway,

overcame him; she seemed divine.
"I-Tll be glad to carry the basket,

anything much"
'Well, let's hurry, SOS we can get
places together"
Then as she maneuvered him
through the little crowd about the
wagon, with a soft push this way and
a gentle pull that, and hurried him up
the imprOvised steps and found place
where there was room for them both
to sit, Ramsey had another GREATNESS

He found himself taken under dove
like protectorship; a wonderful, mex
pressibe Being seemed to have become
his proprietor.
