and pastor OF the Church Of Cosmic
Truth. sat alone in the psycopathic
ward of the general hospital today.
The "man Of a thousand loves =
Is denied them ALL There is no
chance for romancing in hospital
ward which has much of the resem-
blance Of jail cell, or Chat insane
asylum from which he was released
some years ago.
The law, represented by Judge
Archibald of the superior court, is
paving over the records of the
church, trying if the Rev. Clarke
deserves a term in prison should
hospital physicians pronounce him
sane.
And all this because some of the
women whom he tried to help, to
elevate TO stardom in the movies,

take no royal journeys to India, -
had TO tell the district attorney it

them.
Cards, hearing the names and ad-
dresses of more than 1000 women

Of love, business, the future and

Many of these women will testify
against Clarke, according to the dis

to trial on general charge of love

is one of the mystic's patients, or
clients, or whatever he called them,
who so far has been sought unsuc-
ressfully.

And here are a number Of fetching costumes which seem to warrant this belief. They are as good-looking as they are unaffected, offering a type of coat for every sort of figure.
 Tubular in silhouette and boosting the three tiers of styles dictate. the most prom inent of today's illustrations shows a coat which is trimmed with bandings of fur The col lar is of the practical, turnover variety which may be untitled about the throat in stormy weather The cuffs, too, are tiered with bandings of fur to match those which outline the tiers of the lower part.
 Then there is a coat of an- other kind which will be ap- preciated by the girl of boyish proportions. It is fashioned of baby leopard skin, and has a collar of red fox. The jac- quette model is developed in fur, and slipped over a frock of comfortable warmth. Note the wide sleeves and leopard cuffs, which have a slightly more tailored effect than the cuff which tra ditionally matches the collar.

Stop That Worrying.

From what I may fairly call the
roluminous correspondence l have
with readers--or rather the readers
have it with me-one thing seems
clear: BY the time a lot of plain
people feel they are sick enough to
consult a physician they're so sick
the physician can hold out little hope
for them. 1t is the old question
again, you see: Just where does
health end and disease begin? Is
there a dividing line anywhere be-
tween health and disease, and, II SO,
hows fellow to know when he
crosses the line, going or coming
When is any one sick enough to seek
medical advice or care? Won't the
family doctor. busy man that he is.
just laugh at minor complaints and
make one feel foolish for having con-
suited him, after all? Rather than
run the chance of being caught in
such a horrible predicament as that,
shouldn't fellow indulge in a little
self-diagnosis and self-treatment as
long as the trouble isn't actually
sabling?
OF course, it's merely a functional
ailment at presented course. 1t
can't be Of any Importance, there
fore-and just look at the great ar
ray of sure-fire nostrums, both medi-
cinal and non medicinal, which are
available at prices to suit all reason
ably fat pocketbooks? So why run
to the doctor with a little complaint?
Any fellow Is fool enough to be his
own doctor for the minor, trif1ing,
merely functional troubles, at least.

expert. ! pretend to have some spe-
cial knowledge of health and to give
advice about health and hygiene to
readers who want il. I do not give
advice about disease, either the dag
nosis or treatment Of disease. So it
would seem that l must draw a line
somewhere between health and dis
ease. that l may separate out the
queries which have to do with health
matters proper and answer them
leaving the queries that have to do
with disease to chuck into the vast e
basket. l do draw a line, but I draw
1t with very broad pen. There's a
considerable breadth of borderland
between health and disease, a gradual.
imperceptible merging from the one
to the other, just as the green Of the
rainbow or spectrum merges into
the blue. OF course, If / were to
draw any line mathematicany cor
rect. we'd have to install a battery
of mechanical chuckers and an end
less chain carrier for waste baskets
here in the office. But amt narrow
or mean about this-I make short
runs considerably past the imag-
mary line if ! think 1 see a chance
of doing any good.
In the past it was the practice for
doctors to try to draw a line between
do so no more. because pathology has
taught the truth that all disease is
functional and organic from first to
last, be it acute or chronic as to
duration. self-limited or not. durable
or not, preventable or inevitable.
Likewise the layman should stop
deceiving himself about the condi-
ton of his health. II he fears it is
not all right, then he must be sick
enough to seek medical attention.
AS a plain proposition of happiness,
the enjoyment of life, he needs medi-
cal attention. AS a matter Of busi-
ness efficiency he needs medical at
tention. 1t is not a thing to gamble
on. 1t is foolish thing to worry
about. The time to consult q physi-
clan is year before you are con-
vinced you've got to have one.

little here and there across the trail

presently they'll pass your place up
and go on to some neighbor's.

What TodayMeans to You
Virgo.
BY MARY BLAKE.

Today's planetary aspects are di-
verse and of very doubtful char
acter. They do not favor the
tackling of any difficult or new prob
lens, but rather. counsel the carry
ing out of work that is absolutely
essential and of routine nature.
The vibrations of the late afternoon
indicate an unsettled atmosphere and
nervous condition which, in order
to be counteracted, demands poise
and equilibrium. All matters Of an
argumentative kind should be avoid
ed If friendships or associations are
valued.
A child born today will. although
strong and healthy during infancy,
develop one or more sicknesses be-
fore reaching the age Of adolescence.
This condition will require unselfish
care and untfring patience. Its char
acter will be rather irresolute: its
disposition more peevish than pleas
ing; its mentality quite abnormal.
In spite OF these handicaps. much can
be accomplished by earnest affection,
combined with consistent discipline,
and, above all, careful jurisdiction
over all studies. so that its strong
mentality may be guided along the
channels most conducive to enduring
success.
If today is your birthday, you pos
.sess many attractive qualities and
charming characteristics. but your
greatest liability is your disinclina-
tion for work-the point of all pros
perity. the salt that gives life its SAVIOR.
Hard work is the cardinal requisite
for success. Hard work. not chance,
spells success. Diligence is the
mother of good luck. Work develops
all the good you have: idleness all
the evil. Work sharpens all your
faculties and makes you thrifty:
idleness breeds laziness and waste
fulness.
Work is the primeval curse, yet q
blessing without which no healthy
man or woman can be truly happy
Work is the sole ladder that leads
to the land of success.
There are, of course, two kinds Of
hard work-the kind that goes along
grubbinE blindly in the same old
routine, and the kind that plugs pro-
gressively toward definite goal.
You must be adapted to the work you
are doing, but hard work and self
analysis are the principal factors.

would wait until she was out of sight,
then hurry over to that stone and
dig around under 1t. 1t was all in
vain. Not single egg did he find.
So Peter continued to waste a lot
of time. 1t was time doubly wasted.
because had Peter found any eggs
they would have been of no use to
him. He would merely have been
satisfying curiosity. AS it was, he
didn't do even this.
Now Mr.. and Mrs. Garter Snake had
found where Peter had been digging
around under fiat stones, and they
had wondered about it, He had
spoiled several of their best hiding
places in this way. Finally Mrs. Gar
ter Snake caught Peter digging
around a fiat stone under which she
had glided only a few moments be-
fore.
For goodness sake, Peter Rab-
bit, do tell me what you are digging
around that stone for! You are spoil

she.
