Time was when Il was maintained that the reason
women were mentally inferior to men was because
womens brains weighed less than mems. In this way
we once accounted for good many Of womens alleged
shortcomings. Whatever we did not understand and
could not explain any other way was accounted for by
! shortage Of weight in her brains.
Today there many people who believe that at
least at school age girls ceverer than boys There
may be very complex reasons for this which the
scientist could reveal hs cared to; but much short
er way out Of the difficulty has been found by
woman phrenoogist who rejects the complicated proof
in favor Of something much simpler.
She maintains that up to . certain age girls are
brighter than boys because the girls head grows faster
than the boys More particularly is it the breadth Of
the head that counts We told that girls are apt
to be round headed and boys long headed. This So
called expert consoles the boys, however, with the in
formation that later in life boys heads begin 70
widen.
Further investigation may find more convincing
proof for this contention than has Or may
have to do what did in the Of the belief IN the
weight of the brain-dscard it altogether. Until such
time comes however, there is thing which al the
owners Of heads will do well to remember.
For the proper development Of the intellect it is
more important to make good of ones brains, than
to rely for success on their weight the size or
shape Of the head.

Womanish tears, long derided by men, have now
been vindicated, and along with them the ntuitive
powers of women. For women always knew it was
the proper thing to cry certain occasions although
they were unable to give for their tears which
Just would begin flow ct the most unexpected times
Women have always known intutively when tears
needed and shed them, thus keeping able to endure
trials ct which strong men would quail.
So also the crying of the baby is shown to be the
proper thing True, in recent years doctors have ad
vised mother to let the baby cry occasionally. it

Of Health now insist on . Thorough

ringworm Of the beard PRODUCES
great irritation, and each hair 10
surrounded by . small capsule Of
pus.
The fingernails are sometimes at-
tackled by ringworm parasites and
become discolored, thin and brittle.
When this parasite attacks scalp,
beard and nails, It II much harder
to eradicate than when the body u
attacked, and . course Of many
months or years Of treatment may
be necessary. The hair should b
cut short and the affected area
treated carefully.
Only those children who have been
fed on improper combinations de-
velop ringworm. In the rare cases
where close physical contact With
another child suffering from ring
worm produces the disease, the ring
worm on the child with healthy blood
usually quickly disappears.
Unless the systemic condition il
removed by diet, the disease al
though cured in one place, will
usually reappear in another.

RINGWORMS

Il has been estimated that prac-
tically one half Of The adult popula-
ton Of the United States has had
ringworm sometime during life. This
il . popular name for several dis
eases Of the skin caused by small
vegetable fungi or molds.
All forms Of ringworm are very
contagious and are easily trans
mitted from ono person to another.
These diseases are frequently found
on cats, dogs, cattle. and birds, and
are sometimes conveyed. by han
ding, to humans.
The ringworm Of the foot is .
frequent occurrence wherever people
use common dressing and bathing
rooms. Infected premises should be
thoroughly scrubbed with some pow
erful disinfseting agent. Ringworm
Of the body il easily cured by the
use Of . cleansing diet to clear up
the condition Of acidosis which IL al
ways present and painting the in
fected area night and morning with
solution Of silver nitrate, iodine or
mercurochrome.
Rinsworm Of the body usually be-
gins with = small patch which
spreads out in . circle, with . red,
scaly margin. The skin toward the
center Of the patch may have partly
recovered and appear normal. This
gives the disease its Characteristic
rinG-like form. M
Persons with thin, light hair are
much more susceptible to ringworm
Of the scalp than are brunettes: This
form of the disease usually only &C.
ours to children under the age of
fourteen, and is frequently carried
from one child to another by combs,
brushes. and hats.

Figuring from base of past per-
formances, one is confronted with
the puzzle Of figuring just how many
La Toilette votes Smith can get,
how many Republican votes he will
win and how many Democratic votes
he will lose.
Wisconsin has shown affection for
Smith from the start. Senator
Blaine's declaration for Smith was
an encouraging boost. Senator La
Follette's silence is regarded as tacit
acquiescence with Blaine. Wiscon-
sin is wet and insurgent. She has
a Catholic population Of about Is
per cent, considerably more than any
other state in this group. On the
other hand, she has been nominally
Republican. Many Of her La Fol-
lette voters Of 1924 are sure to vote
for Hoover. It is easy to see, how
ever, why the Democrats have such
high hopes there.
Nebraska is the state most like
" to be affected by the announce
ment of Senator Norris. Demo-
Gratis claim Smith has appealed to
most Of her German voters all along.
The Lutheran Synod has declared
against intolerance and the State
Federation Of Labor is out for Smith.
Smiths Omaha farm relief speech
sounded good to many Nebraska
farmers. But Senator Howell and
Governor McMullen have been cam
paigning for Hoover, and the Norris
delay in declaring for Smith en-
courgaged organization leaders.
Smiths anti-prohibition attitude
and his religion are serious handi-
caps to him in those regions where
farm discomfort might otherwise
turn the tide for him. Only Norris
could deliver Nebraska to Smith and
perhaps not even he.
The great handicap in the farm
states from the Smith point Of view
is that in ordinary years there is no
Democratic party to speak of. Min
nesota, for instance. There the ma
tional organisations has undertaken
to create m emergency machine,
sending Senator's Wheeler of Mon
tana and Wagner Of New York to
the scene.
Senator Shipstead, Farmer Labor
tie, is expected to be reelected over
. Republican opponent, and the
Smith managers have sought to gel

Scarcely less surprising Is the revelation msds IN

ore taking college courses by correspondence
Thirteen universities report that they are giving IN
struction by mail to total Of more than 4OOOO men
and women These correspondent students are Tor tho
most part older than those who attend college, and they
are drawn from all walks Of Ne and from abroad ~
well as from every corner Of the United States. The
University of Chicago reports that it has enrolled IN
its correspondence department one student living above
the Arctic circle In Alaska and another In remote
part Of China.
The courses cover wide range Of subjects. Bust
ness courses are most popular with the correspondence
pupils Of tho University Of Wisconsin. At the Univsr
sity Of Kansas foreign languages are most IN demand
