LETTER FROM SALLY ATHERTON
TO REF SUMMERS

Things have been changing colors
and forms around here lately as fast
as they do in Kaleidoscope. can
are as rosy or the form as regular as
those which used to delight our
childish eyes when we looked into
that little round pasteboard barrel
and watched the bits of glass dance
and change.
1t almost seems to me, dear Bee,
as though those old fashioned kalei-
doscopes had a peculiar resemblance
to the round world of humanity. We
dance and change. our colors glow
and fade and we form combinations
only to break them up to form others
seemingly without any volition Of
our own.
The only difference between US
and the glass bits is that We are not
satisfied to take the destiny that
Fate sends US.

Several Cabinet
Changes Likely
BY CHARLES P. STEWART
NEA Service Writer

Washington, Jan. 3.-White House
statements that President Coolidge
will make only one cabinet change
March 4 undoubtedly are true, liter
ally, but inside dope" is that he
will make quite a number not long
after that date.
Probably they will not be made
in a bunch. That would be too OBJ
viously "shake-up"
But for one ostensible reason
after another, secretary after secre-
tary will drop out until, perhaps
in the course of year, at least six
or seven portfolios will be in new
hands. ~sr
Technically it would have been
perfectly proper for the president to
have reorganized the cabinet when
he entered the White House on
President Harding's death, but it
wouldn't have been good politics. His
correct move was to continue the
Harding policies up to the end Of
his term. and he made it.
Good of Party
On no ground whatever could he
be criticized if he put in an entirely
new set Of men March and it might
not do him, personally, any harm.
Possibly, however, it wouldn't be al
together for the party's good. 1t
might suggest that the chief execu-
tive had been dissatisfied all along
and had set matters right as soon
as he could.
Very likely consideration for the
individual cabinet members feelings
counts. too. 1t will be pleasanter for
them to appear to quit naturally
than to have everybody know that
they have been dropped.
OF all his secretaries, it is under.
stood the president wants to keep
Andrew ". Mellon most, and the
latter, who wants to put his tax re-
vision plans into effect, will keep
the treasury portfolio indefinitely.
Attorney General Stone, an ap-
pointee of the presidents own, will
stay, as will Secretary of Commerce
Hoover, though there is possibility
he may be shifted to some other de-
partment which the president wishes
to strengthen.

it was learned today. Former Gov
ernor Chase S. Osborn, credited
with the discovery of large part
OF the iron ore deposits on the
North American and African con-
tinents. has found iron on one 100
acre tract owned by the University
at Algoma.
George n. Brady Of Detroit and
Thomas Whittier of Saginaw, as
SOciated with the late Senator
Thomas w. Palmer. thought they
had played a joke on the univers-
ity. They were members Of land
syndicate that acquired the pro-
perty and thinking it worthless
gave it to the university, the quit
claim deed being transferred in
1905.
When Dr. Marion Leroy Burton
became president of the university.
he started to ascertain the value OF
the property, and Mr.. Osborn a
former regent of the university
took a hand. Through his attor-
ney titles to the land were clear
ed and the university was shown to
have clear title TO a five-eighths
interest in the tract which is part
of the Garden River Indian re-
serve.
The ore discovered was mag
netite Of a medium grade which,
though not previously considers
OF great commercial worth. is now
valuable. Mr.. Osborn, after a
thorough inspection Of the lands
has reported to Regent Ralp.,
Stone. who will report that the
university's interests in the pro-
perty would net it at least $10.-
100000 in the future, even if the
deposits are worked only on i
royalty basis.

think that Carton is doing it entire

1t is a most astonishing thing to
me that so many husbands are apt
to think that their friends are nice to

brotherly love for themselves.
OF course, Leslie was greatly hurt
that her husband would neglect her
so at that time and that brings me
up to date. l do not believe she has
spoken to Jack Prescott since and
you know she has gone to Atlantic
City and left him.

New York, Jan. 3.-New York is in
its ugliest winter mood at seven
o'clock in the morning. Then the
lights are turned off and the sun
has not yet battled it's way through
the gray shroud that envelopes the
city.
Then the electric luster is gone
and the face of the city seems like
some faded jade without rouge and
lip-stick, scanned, soiled and repul-
sive.
1t is the hour of penitence. The
swinging flesh pots have come to a
stop. Lackeys are hurrying to clear
away the debris of dissipation before
the sun reveals its sordidness. Sack
cloth and ashes replace cap and
bells. Romance has fled before the
cloud Of gray.
Out of the grayness there trickles
thin stream of men to throw in
the switches, to speed up the whirl-

ADVENTURE OF
THE TWINS
THE MINED Up SIGNS
By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

''I'm sure I can't imagine where
that goblin can have disappeared to-
said Johnny Sweep 20 Nancy and
Nick. do you suppose he can have
decided to be good?''
Its quite likely said Nancy. Il
have heard about naughty little COB
Inns getting ashamed of themselves
and trying to behave
The Twins and the Sweep were
standing on a roof wondering what
to do next. But as they were talk
ing. a woman with market basket
on her arm stopped TO gossip with
a friend in the street.
Her words came up quite plainly
to three pairs of ears, and this is
what she was saying:
THE queerest thing happened in
the grocery store just little while
ago. The signs go, mixed up. The
apple sign got on a pile of flour
sacks and said Two for five cents
I ordered two sacks at once
Johnny Sweep looked at Nick and
Nick looked at Nancy and Nancy
looked at Johnny Sweep.
For they knew!
They knew that there was no mis-
take and that Sni,cher Snatch
wasn't getting good a. all. 1t was
more Of the little COLLINS mischief.
Let's go to the grocery store
right away" whispered Nancy.
Il think we'd better" said Johnny
Sweep.
SO hopping on his broom. Johnny
clicked his tongue and all three Of
them were of in an instant. When
they reached the grocery store they
all hoped off Johnny's broom and
marched right in through the street
door.
The poor grocer was to much up
set by certain goings on to see how
very black they were, for BY travel
ing up and down so many chimneys,
the Twins had become almost as
sooty as Johnny Sweep himself. The
grocer kept saying over and over,
"Can l be losing my senses? I, who
never made single mistake count
ing change in all my life. l. who
never made mistake weighing q
pound Of sugar or an ounce of pep
per in my life. How could it have
happened that got the signs all
over my store mixed up: must
have been walking in my sleep"
Behind the sugar barrel Snitcher
Snatch was going, Tee. hee. hee!
| Oh. tee. hee, heel" just like that.
But when he spied Nancy and
Nick and Johnny Sweep. he stopped
laughing.

ing wheels, to start the changing,
throbbing bobbin-and-shuttle that
weaves its human skein into brilliant
fabric for the night. The torrent Oh
humanity which follows never sees
the gray.
When day turns to night there is
no grayness. Lights are turned on
before the sun is down. New York
lives for the night.
And SO it is that many here live
on from year to year only in bright
lighted turmoil, knowing no tran

penitent meditation, of the drabness
of life that underlies all of the gilt

FABLES ON HEALTH
CARE OF THE FACE

Wrinkles in the face are nearly al.
ways an unwelcome surprise.
There are several methods of de-
laying their appearance, and in some
instances dissipating them after they
have appeared, as Mrs. Jones of Any
town learned.
A persons general health must be
given attention and the face should
have local stimulation.
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1925-01-03

Washing the face in cold water,
and then rubbing briskly with
towel or the palm of the hand will
do good service.
An excellent cream to rub into the
face every night may be made of
cocoa butter, one ounce; white wax,
one-half ounce; spermaceti, one
ounce; sulphate OF aluminium, one
dram; rose water, one ounce; oil of
sweet almonds, one ounce.
