LET us hope the day will be bright and clear, for
there are so many pleasant things to do on the
Fourth of July
The golf course calls. The tennis courts are
freshly rolled and waiting. A double-header is
scheduled for the ball park. Somewhere not so
far away the trout are basking in a ripping
stream and the green-cad woods beckon you to
stop awhile for your motor picnic. Down by
the seashore sands the boardwalk lights are
twinkling a welcome and the moon is growing

How Ii Started
WITHOUT JoT OR TITLE
By JEAN NEWTON

sT>HE newspapers are telling of the
scion of a wealthy and prominent
family who, because of his marriage,
has been cut off by his father with
out jot or little" The phrase means,
Of course, that he has been left abso-
lutely nothing.
A "tittle,' from the Latin 'titulus, =
meaning label, is a distinguishing
mark used over letter for purposes
of pronunciation. as the title over
the m In canon. 1t is accepted, too
as meaning a particle, anything with
out value or Significance
"Jot," though Of different deriva-
ton, has theAsame significance. Taken
from the Greek "jota, it signifies the
dot over the "i'' or any point OF
title. 1t also is used figurativeIy to
describe anything Of the slightest
value.
And so the phrase without jot OF
title" is well chosen to describe a
lack of any possessions at all. For
it would be a ighIy-imaginative per
son who could think Of something that
means less than without jot or title.

GHE WHY Of
SUGGESTIONS
b. H. IRWIN q KING
CoMBING THE HAIR
TN NEW ENGLAND they say:
4 Comb your hair after dark;
Comb sorrow to your heart.


In other sections to comb your hair
after dark lis a sign of sickness"
and in still others .combing your hair
after dark twill make you forgetful. "
All three variations Of the superstition
amount to the same thing that comb
ing ones hair after the sun has set
is liable to result in unpleasant CON
sequences.
The strong belief of the ancients
with regard to the hair as something
containing the individuality Of man
in the highest degree has been spoken
of in connection with the magical inn
portance with which the act Of cut
ting the hair was supposed to be at
tended. Was not Samson shorn of his
strength when he was shorn of his
locks? And has not Pliny written
learnedly on the Importance of ton
serial operations? Combing the hair
appears to have been a much less
serious operation than the cutting of
it but even combing would not fail to
have an appreciable effect when APP
piled to a substance SO intimately con-
nected with a mans physical and
spiritual being as the hair. The OPP
GRAFTON performed In darkness might
naturally be supposed to have dis
astrous effect. The beneficent gods OF
day were no longer on watch Night
was especially the time OF the prowl-
ing of evil spirits with which early
man peopled the darkness. Best not
disturb the hair In such company, at
tention might be called to it; harm
worked upon 1t and through 1t, on its
possessor.

lures done in strong colors, or show

scenes, need frames OF greater weight
than do those slighter in size, color or

But first of all, look to the spirit Of
your pictures. Each has its own per-

Don't go too far" your first thought
may be when the suggestion of
lovely picture for the kitchen meets
your eye. But the idea isn't a bit
fantastic.
For countless ages kitchens have
harbored pictures. Shyly, to justify
their invasion into that most practi-

hid their identity as mere pictures,

no YOU think of the picture frame
~ as something in and Of itself
Like piece of bric-a-brac?
1t shouldn't be so considered; for
regardless of its own loneliness, the
frame must be in harmony with the
color and spirit of its picture, or 1t is
as disappointing as the right hat on
the wrong face.
My neighbor, for instance, is wom-
an of excellent taste, who would never
be guilty of framing her daughters
piquant little face in stern bonnet

to pictures, her water-color of trees
