IRON FALSE TEETH
WAR AND CRIME DOESN'T PAP
YOUTH AND LAWLESSNESS.
SOME CAN'T WEAR En-
By Arthur Brisbane


SOME CAN'T WEAR GM
The great krupp concern, maker:
of big cannon on which the Kaiser;
power used to rest, now manufac
lures false teeth Of steel, ename, ID,
the same steel that once went into
fighting machinery.
Can you imagine anything
stranger in history than the posi-
bility of the Kaiser wearing set
of false teeth made by the Krupps?
Not the same bite in that set as
there was in the old cannon.
Two things never pay-crime and
war. The Big war cost two hun
Gred and fifty h.Vions of dollars,
besides lives lost. The Chicago
crime that attracts attention will
cost at least $GQU,O00. It's expensive,
even for taxpayers. They VII sup
ply about 100000 as Their share.
The parents of the Gcp-aved
youths that murdered young Franks
will spend about S53o,Cc0.
That is the price of two young
mems attempt to get $4,000 by
l.:;5naping. Their two necks may
be added to the total. s..,

A Hollandcr is on his way to
Earseilles, distance of 700 miles.
To win a bet he must travel all
the way turning somersaults. Start
ing in November, 1923, he has until
next February II to finish the trip.
About two million somersaults will
cover the distance. The man is we'll
padded, and seems quite happy, like
many that think as he travels, also
in somersauits.
Italy doesn't know what to do
with her wine crop this year. She
has not enough casks to hold it.
Citizens can walk into wine eel
lar and drink as much as desired"
for a few cents.
Good prohibitionists will say,
What terrible drunkenness there
will be in Italy" But they don't
know the Italian people. They don't
get drunk, whether the wine is
cheap or dear.
Judge Talley says, "The United
States is the most lawless nation,
and most criminals are youngsters"
That's just it. The United States
is youngster. Youth is always
lawless. Lawlessness is terrible,
but there is one worse thing, and
that is stagnation.
Parts of the West that We're once
most lawless in the old gold fever
days are now typically law abiding.
This country will settle down.
There is cure for exuberance,
none for sterility." u.,.,,.......

Disease is one of earth's mystic
'ies. And most mysterious is the
trouble that Nature takes to pro-
tect disease germs against their
enemies, including man.
!. For instance, the tubercular ba-
cillus, which kills millions, lives en-
cased in "a heavy capsule of fat"
which gives it elasticity and pro-
tects it from its enemies in our
blood, .o....-.- .,
Sir Leonard Rogers, who has
specialized in fighting leprosy, no.
ticed the resemblance between the
germs of leprosy and of tubereu-
losis, and tried on his consumptive
patients injections of sodium morr-
huate, that worked well in leprosy.
1t is the salt obtained from the
body of Goldfish, and has shown
extraordinary results in leprosy
and tuberculosis. 'A , I-'slgr:-. -.

Knickerbockers are sensible,
worn at the right time, but they are
not for every female figure.
In the North you see hundreds
of young women in knickerbockers
that remind you of the stone wall
built by the honest farmer, "Three
feet high, three feet wide," so that
if it blows over it will be just the
same. Some young ladies in knick-
erbockers would look about the
same if they blew over. But why
fine the poor creatures? Many are
timing themselves to the value of
one husband.
A woman, eighty, hobs her hair,
partly because she is tired of hear
ing young people of fifty and sixty
talking about it. Some of the
youngsters consider an eighty-year-
Did "boyish bob" amusing. But
many woman of eighty is literally
younger than the WORKOUT fapper
of eighteen or thirty-eight. It's
The youth in the eyes, not in the
years, that counts
