a permanent seat in the League of
Nations council and will definitely op

This change in the British attitude
was announced by Sir Austen Cham

at Geneva regarding the League of
Nations to group of members Of the
house of commons representing both
opposition and government support

Brazil will not be permitted to con
tinue to veto Germany's application
for admission to the council in Sep

sembly will meet and re-elect tempo

comes up and unless Brazil agrees in
advance to withhold her veto, she will
not be given a temporary seat in the

is a childish thing to do, but so Gus
tomary that it is amusing.
What we should do is to try to
repeat the meaning of a sentence that
is not understood. by COUGHING 1t in
other words. Let us suppose we say
something as simple as This is a
very hot day. isn't it?" and it is met
by a blank expression. We can say
1t is extremely warm this morning" i"
If it is morning or afternoon, II that
is the time of day. 1t indicates a
poor vocabulary not to be able to say
the same thing in more than one way.
A rather interesting experiment
that takes the form of a game, is
to have one person say some simple
thing, such as the one just mentioned,
and see how many times it can be
said in varying ways by those seated
around a room. The person who fails,
instead Of starting the next sentence,
has to pay forfeit.
When to Speak Loudly.
There are times when loud speak.

persons who would shout If not un.

should speak loud and distinctly. You
will notice this at meetings, where

or minutes to read. She speaks so
low, that those who are close by, are
the only ones who hear. She should
think of the roomful Of people, either
as deaf persons, or all at a distance,
and then she might be heard, for she
would, or she should anyway, raise
her voice.
Children who shout and scream
when at play, speak so low when they
recite at school or to entertain a com.
pany, that you wonder where they
can have stored their usually shrill
voices. You would suppose that they
couldn't talk more loudly without an
effort. But let them start to play,
and their voices come back as if by
magic and the mothers have to be
cautiining them to stop talking so
loud"

THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Friday, November 10.

Although Jupiter Is in benefic aspect
tomorrow according to astrology, the
day is not an auspicious one. The
Sun. Saturn and Neptune are all
adverse.
Under this planetary government,
routine trade and commerce should be
profitable, and there is to be. ap-
parently, a great expansion of our
mercantile interests.
Judges are subject to a most
promising rule, making for promotions
and honorS.
1t is we'll not to attempt to find
employment while the sun is in evil
aspect. and for this reason 1t is
wise not to risk any big prospects.
1t is not a favorable day for those
who hold high place, whether 1t be
political Office or business position.
At the beginning Of the year 1t
was prognosticated that much fraud
and dishonesty would be uncovered In
politics and the seers foretell SEN
sations in many cities.
Again there may be controversies
regarding oil and oil interests. There
is a menacing sign. astrologers say,
for new promoters and investors.
Neptune appears to presage added
uses for Oil and it's products, but the
new products will compete with those
now so necessary to modern life.
Next month the aspects may be
most favorable for New York, Rio
de Janeiro, Singapore and Cape
Town, astrologers foretell. Chicago
and the Middle West are to fare bet
ter through the Winter months than
the Eastern and Western States.
New York. particularly, may be
subject to remarkable events as well
as severe weather, astrologers an
nounce.
Secret diplomacy and subterfuges
from foreign nations are presaged
by the aspects foreseen at the time of
next months lunatfon.
Persons whose birthdate 1t Is have
the augury of year of rare pros.
perity. Money will come readily, 1t
is probable, but there Is danger of
losses through fires and thieves.

Mark Twain.
American Novelist and Humorist.
Born 1895. Died 1910.


Mark Twain would never wear pa
jamas. but clung affectionately to the
old-fashioned nightgown.
He would make out-of-town visits in
evening dress and next day walk
about the streets in this costume. the
curiousneSs Of which was enhanced
by wearing rubbers over bedroom slip
pers. He loved bedroom slippers and
wore them whenever 1t was possible,
and often when they looked decidedly
out of place.
He had always a relish for personal
effect, which expressed itself in the
white suit of complete serge which he
wore in his last years, and In the
oxford gown which he put on for
every possible occasion. and said he
would like to wear all the time.
In conversation he would fly sud
denly out of a calm, quiet mood into
a mood of tremendous animation. In
these moments of intense excitement.
which often happened when he was at
table, he would leave his place and
walk up and down the room, flying
his napkin, which served him for
making emphatic gestures, and talk
ing and talking.
He loved the English excessively;
was full of praise for everything Eng
lish-the English personal independ-
ence and public spirit and hospitality
and truth. He loved to tell stories
in proof Of their virtues. and made a
little anthology for personal use of
tales calculated to produce admiration
for England and its people.
Strangely enough. he cared little
for fiction, and there were certain
authors whose names he seemed not
so much to pronounce as to spew out
Of his mouth. Oliver Goldsmith and
Jane Austen were two of these.
He loathed the theater, and said he
would as soon do a sum as follow a
plot on the stage.
He abhorred slavery. and held him
self responsible for the wrong which
tho white, cace had done the black

their care is a matter of supreme i'm

went on, "how much you show your

add such charm to the well groomed

evident from many little white spots,
and underneath told a tale Of neglect.
DO you use the point Of regular
nail file to clean your nails, madam"
To that Helen nodded.
Very properly she was horrif1ed.
"Oh my dear Madame-you must
never use a sharp instrument. 1t
underpart of the nails, and dirt lodges
in the scratches"
"Then that's why could never get
my nails Clean"
"If you will rub vaseline in under
the nails, that will soften and clean
away that dirt, and cotton soaked In
lemon juice will remove ugly stains.
You must rub in cold cream nightly
Hands need the same nourishment as
our faces. And, Madame, see that
your buffer is always clean, as a dirty
buffer only rubs in dirt instead Of
polishing Each nail should be rubbed
separately. Dress the skin around
the nail back where it belongs with
your towel every time you wash so
that the pretty half-moon will show.
Massaging the skin with skin food
will soften and whiten it. 1t will also
keep the cuticle soft and seems to
make the nail naturally pinker. What
little care will do for neglected
hands and nails is a marvel"
"How long will it take before my
hands will look presentable?"
IF you persist in rubbing the skin
food in every night-six professional
manicures ought to give your hands a
normal appearance. Madame's hands

Puff Balls.

\ uA odk1Ss
A very rainy Fall has raised from
the earth as plentiful a host Of the
lowly and astonishing little mush-
rooms known as puff balls as I havo
ever seen. There are 10 in the soft
garden soil on the north side Of my
house, where the spill of the caves so
conveniently drips, and everywhere
on my walks, against red clay banks.
among the leaf mold Of the rainy
woods, 1 see them.
Tender buttons was the name OF
futurist book of poems over which
people laughed from coast to coast:
but when puff balls are tiny tender
buttons. pure white and dainty. they
are sometimes edible-not that I sug-
gest that people go to cooking up pun
balls and eating them without finding
out from an authority first that they
are good to eat.
But the little ones hide away from
sight, and only when they are tough
may one find them.
In middle life. the puff ball has
a tiny crater-like mouth at the top.
and if you tap or squeeze the ball.
out of the crater will shoot volcanic
eruption of little spores. ready to
spread abroad and start new puff balls.

Many Visitors at
Vacation School

The Church Vacation school was
honored by two groups of visitors yes
terday morning. DR.. George Merriam
and a group of eight workers came
from Skowhegan to observe and get
suggestions for their school which
will open next Tuesday morning. They
divided among the departments in
which they were interested and sat
through the worship periods and part
of the recreation hour.
Rev. P. c. Clark and Deacon B. K.
Edwards Of the Madison Baptist
church passed most of the forenoon
observing the school in action. Mr..
Clark while at Mars Hill started and
developed a school which last year
had an average attendance of III pu-
pills and IA teachers.
Monday the school will be in session
in spite of the holiday. Special patri-
otto programs will be given and then
the school will parade the city, the
only Fourth of July parade in Water
Vile. Citizens are asked to watch out
for the children and observe the caps
which they have made.
Tuesday it is expected that two
most distinguished visitors will be
present. The director and assistant
director for vacation schools of the
International Council of Religious Ed
ucation are now in Canada visiting
schools, but will pass two days III
Maine one of them in Waterville. The
workers feel that this is great COM
pliment to the Waterville school. A
conference of workers from all over
the State of Maine will be held in the
afternoon at the First Baptist church.
