COPELAND DISCUSSES
WOMAN'S USE OF ROUGE

''The sallow woman needs health
more than she needs the mere COM
plexion of health" declared Senator
Royal S. Copeland in health talk
given in connection with the Y. w.
c. AS "better health" campaign at
the recreation center of the organ
ization yesterday.
The doctor-senator confessed him
self in a quandary when asked about
rouge and said "woman's appearances
can possibly be improved by rouge
rightly used, but after all it is the
stimulation of health, and disguise in
the end defeats it's victim"
Breathing, according to the senator,
is the most essential of the body
functions. "One may eat with relish,
masticate thoroughly, and yet. like IL
furnace without q draft, assimilation
does not take place." he said. The
senator declared he felt greatly en-
couraged in the outlook of the pres
ent generation, which outlives its
progenitors of fifty years ago by
eleven years.

BLEACHING OF FLOUR
Sole Object Is Sale, Food Expert
Tells Housekeepers' Al
lance Meeting.
BRAND BILL IS INDORSED
Principle Seen as Benefit to Con-
sumers and Farmers.

The white bleached flour that makes s
snowy bread is regarded as excellent
by the American housewife for rca-
sons that have no scientific basis, DIR.
Harvey w. Wiley, pure food expert
and former administrator of the pure
food and drugs act. yesterday told
the Housekeepers' Alliance at a meet
ing in the headquarters of the Cen
eral Federation of Womans Clubs at
1894 n street.
THE sole object of bleaching flour"
pr. Wiley added, lis 10 make it whit
er. The American housewife III some
unaccountable way associates white
ness of flour with excellence. There
is no scientific basis for this idea.
The miller. however, has taken ad-
vantage of this psychology to in
crease the price of flour.
Mixing of FlOurs.
TT is we'll known that high-grade
patent flour is the whiteSt of the COM
mercial fiourS. Lower grades of -four
have deeper amber tints. These low
CT grades of fiour-that is. cheaper
EradeS-can be bleached and mixed
with the high patent f1ours and all
sold at the high price. The people Of
this country are paying 90 cents more
u barrel and at the same time eating
bread which is more unwholeSome, if
such thing can possibly be, than
the ordinary white loaf"
The alliance adopted 4 resolution
indorsings the Brand bill for estab-
iishment of q standard weight for
ioaves of bread and for other pur-
poses. The preamble to the reSolu
tion contends that a federal inter-
state bread law would serve as a
model to other states contemplating
such q bread law and would ulti-
natalE of

try. The resolution stated that the

ciple involved in this bill which will
benefit both consumer and farmer
alike without working any hardship

 That is your ideal of husband, not a chivalrous. broad-minded gen tleman, who gives you credit for be- ing an intelligent, honorable woman who can be trusted to conduct her- self in a proper manner.
 Jealousy isn't . sign Of love- my dear. To begin with, 1t is an express sion of elemental savagry. It is the primitive instinct of man or wom- an to possess wholly his or her mate, and to grow green-eyed over any thing that threatens that monopoly.

Have you read in the Talmud of
 old,
 In the legends that Rabbins have Of the limitless realms of the air. Have you read it-that marvellous
 story.
 Of Sandalphon the Angel of Glory. sandalphon the Angel of Prayer?"
 LONGFELLOW. The Hebrew Taimud abounds with beautiful tales and legends of angels and other celestial beings, one of the most striking and poetic of which is that O. Sandalphon, the Angel of Prayer
 The legend describes this angel as stationed at the entrance gate of heaven at the top of the Ladder of Light, up which all prayers of mor-S tals must ascend in order to reach the Divine ear-the same Ladder said to have been revealed to Jacob in a dream while sleeping alone in the desert.
 Sandalphon is pictured as standing alone, majestic and unmoved by the throngs of lesser angels that crowd the heavenly portals watchinb the incoming souls of mortals as they ascend. His ear, however, is strained to catch the supplicauons. From the souls that entreat and
 implore
 In the fervor of passion and prayer" And he gathers the prayers as he
 stands,

 Marian had gone off with a young man for good time. but Lois did not envy her. Instead. her thoughts Iiwste all of self-congratyiation. Marian was away. So was her was coming to call,
 The girl had hardly dared hope for such good luck. Things had gone her way for once with little manage ment on her part. Indeed. she re- minded herself, she had not really done any managing, Marian had been going out anyway. And her father needed an evening of recration. Self-justiflcation Is an easily ac- Quired habit. It was one in w1ich Lois Horton had indulged since child hood. It stood her in good stead now when, at S:45, her guests ar- rived.
 The girl heard the maid tell the caller that MT. Horton and Miss Ma rian were out. but that Miss Lois was in, and would he please walk into the library? His hostess greeted him with a pretty mingling of welcome and re- gret.i

The Woman Who Wants Her Husband To Be Jealous Oi
 Her To Prove His Love. Which Shall She Marry, Hand : some-and-Cay Or Homely-andG Good?--Ihe Returned
 Soldier Whose Mother Is Uncongenial Y

ped of all subterfuEe 1t simply means suspicion. 2, S,ss ,..,s.sg,
 The man who ia jealous of every other man who comes near his wife In his heart has no faith In her. He believes that she Is capable of be- Htraying him. and that she needs to be watched. If he trusted her loy- atty, she might talk or dance with whom she pleased. It, would not cause him a. moments uneasiness if he heard that she had gone to lunch or riding with home man. because he would know that there was some good reason for 1t, and that, any way, her conduct would be beyond re- proach.
 so when you demand that your husband, be jealous of you, you pay yourself a very bad compliment. nor do you flatter him. for you expect him to have so poor an opinion of your sex that he does not expect any member of 1t to run straight of her own accord.
 And certainly yor, are playing with fire when you set out deliberately to make your husband jealous.
 It may gratify your vanity to try to make him believe that other men want you, and that you are waverfng in your allegiance to< him, but, be- lieve me, the wife of jealous man has no easy time of it. She is watched and spied upon. She has to go through endless scenes. Her life is full of pickering and quarreling, and if you are wise you will refrain from rousing a devil in >yoJr hus- bands breast that you may not be able to exercise.
 And often the woman who tries to make her husband jealous finds it a boomerang that flies back and an- vii hn ShA rnnQaq hiQ alfS- pioion of her, and that kills his faith in her. He believes her guilty of of- lenses she may not really have com mitted, and She finds herself with her character smirchen, defendfng a divorce suit. The woman who has got q husband who trusts her, and isn't Jealous, should thank God on her knees for her blessing, and keep herself, like Caesars wife, above re- proach. DOROTHY DIX.
 Dear Miss Dix-I am girl of 21 years old, and I have offers of mar riage from two men between whom I canot decide. One of these men is very handsome, he has a good posi- ton. but hs drinks a little, although he says he will reform if I marry him. The other man has good po- sition also, and Is an ideal fellow In every way, but he is not at all good lOOklng, Tn IaCt, ne IS Hohciy' WhASn one would you advise me to marry!
 UNDECIDED.
 Answer: Neither. When you don't know which one of two men to mar ry, wait for the, third man to show up. When you are really in love for keeps you won't need any one to tell you which one you prefer. Your own heart will settle that little problem right off the bat.
 As between these two young men. the sober, homely one is the best bet. There is great peace and satisfaction in having a husband whose looks do
