Caveman Psychology.

The caveman within us undoubtedly
survives; and the usual explanation of
the difficulties of civilization is the
strength Of primitive human passion
Man was already human thousands
upon thousands of years ago, when he
ceased to be apelike; but humanizmg
the human Is i'll comparison a rather
recent process. Hence 1t goes hard and
1t Is far from complete. It isn't merely
that the latest type of civilization is a
veneer over the layers of cruder times
scratch the Russian and you find the
Tartar-but that in each generation
you have to meet with the resistance
established by age-old habits You have
to pierce the biological shell underneath
the cultural one 70 diSlodge or re-
educate the caveman before you reach
even the Tartar.
The portion of the total human
psychology in which caveman traits
survive and operate Is the emotional
| domain. The highest type Of skull in
| caveman days is quite comparable to
that of Notwithstanding humans. AS
a craftsman and a thinker he was in our
class, for by our class we must in fair
ness mean the average thinking capacity
of the average man. He put that brain
to work on quite different patterns; he
did differently; he lived differently. All
that we know is matter of training,
and the ease with which Indian or Malay
or the varieties of white races adapt
+, themselves to shifts in the ways of
living gives strong reason to suppose
that the caveman could do the same.
A full-blooded Indian driving his auto
Through the streets of Tulsa carries no
deep-seated incongrulty. He and we
have the same biological inheritance for
learning. The type Of learning in driv-
ing an auto Is no different from that
involved in padding his own canoe.
On the roofs Of caves In Southern

show the same craftsmanship as cave

KEEPING MENTALLY FIT
BY JOSEPH JASTROW.

IL was common occurrence, The tor
ture chambers of the towers of Nurem-
Derg or OF London, Low museums of to
us unlntelligible practices, show how
recent is the changed attitude. The
excesseS OF the human mob In war and
riots and revolution tell the same tale.
IL Is the psychologists task to trace
these records Of history and anthro-
pology back to the dominant human
motives, so deeply anchored in human
nature that they are not easily up
rooted. They survive, and only through
constant discipline are they kept under
control. Once break through these re-
strictions and you release the emotional
caveman who survives.
Childish exceSSes of emotion follow
the caveman type. The child is selfish,
cruel, tyrannical, full of revenge ard
resentment, passionate Only because
he Is constantly surrounded by his kins-
folk, who present other patterns of be-
havior, diScouraging these tendencies
and encouraging the sympathetic emo
tionS that are equally part of his re-
mote inheritance, does he grow up a
considerate, friendly, law-abiding citi-
zen, and not cruel, vengeful cut
throat who takes the law into his own
hands. But the strong tendency that
must be curbcd and redirected Is there;
and the strong childish interest in
blood and murder and gruesome pas
sion tells the story of the caveman.
Such is the racial biography repeated
in the history Of each generation. Be-
cause the record Of the history of hu-
man emotions is what it Is, the emo
tional education of children presents a
| formidable task. And for the same
reason the humanizing of the human
race Is the limitless problem OF society
The problem Of policing and govern
ing the human mob has the same basis:
the reduction Of crime. the abolition OF
war, the removal of prejudice, the curb
Ing OF greed, the pursuing of worthy
limitation-the survival Of the cave
man within us.

BEDTIME STORIES BY y THasYEe' aTSc4sS

he peeped around cautiously.
Down below was boy. In his hands
was gun. 1t wasn't one of those
dreadful guns that spit fire and make
loud noise. This one made very little
noise, but it shot bullets just the same.
1t was an air gun-the kind of a gun
that boys delight to have.
The boy was peering up excitedly.
When he saw Rusty peeping around
from behind the trunk of the tree
the boy took careful aim. Spang! The
bullet hit the tree right under Rusty's
nose. You should have seen him dodge
back. This time he scrambled higher
and tried to hide in the treetop. The
boy walked around below. Every time
he caught glimpse of Rusty he would
put that gun to his shoulder. Spang!
would come bullet. Poor Rusty! He
tried another tree. The boy and the
dreadful rifle followed him. You see,
in none of those trees was there hol-
low big enough for Fox Squirrel to
hide in. The only thing he could do
was to keep the trunk of the tree be-
tween him and the boy with that horrid
gun.
At last, when Rusty was near the
top of the tallest tree, one of those
bullets hit him. My, how it did sting!
1t tore his coat SO that it bled just a
little. It wasn't anything serious, but
it was painful. That Is the trouble
with those air rifles. There was small
chance that at that distance a bullet
would kill Rusty, but bullets could
sting and hurt at that distance, as
Rusty had already found out.
After that, Rusty was more careful
than ever to keep the trunk of the
tree he happened to be in between
himself and the boy. He had to peek
around to keep watch of that boy and,
of course, every time he did this he
took some chance. One of those bullets
might hit him in the eye. Poor Rusty!
He was badly frightened. The place
where he had been hit ached. He
couldn't see any chance to escape. 1t
really was very dreadful for Rusty.
Meanwhile, the boy was having a
wonderful time. He imagined himself
a mighty hunter. Every time he made
a good shot, he was nightly pleased
with himself. Yet that boy wasn't a
hard-hearted boy He was just a
thoughtless boy. He didn't understand.
1t didn't occur to him that a squirrel
would feel pain just as he would. He
didn't think of Rusty as suffering
dreadful fright as we'll as pain. He,
himself. was having sport and that was
all he thought of.

Paying in Advance.

Some of our bills are payable in ad-
vance, and there is option in the mat
ter Most of our bills are not payable
in advance, and it is generally poor
policy to pay them until they are due
The reasons are practical and psyche
logical.
Practically there is no reason why
one should sacrifice the possession of
money until there is real cause. Small
amounts may only draw slight amounts
of interest, but it is something. Fur
thermore, If one does pay in advance,
a bill so paid should be paid with dis
count.
Psychologically, a creditor, be he OF
she seamstress, milliner, tradesman
shopkeeper or furrier, is more likely to
try to satisfy one before a bill is paid
than after. Before being paid it is OBJ
vious that entire satisfaction is re-
quired. After, almost any attitude may
be assumed with impunity.
In some cases small deposit may be
required before work will be started or
a gown or coat or some interior decora-
ton, but this should only be a small
amount offered as a declaration of good
faith.
Persons without credit. or of un,
favorable reputation, are often required
to pay in advance, but then there is q
question of honesty.

Everyday Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.
Will to Believe .
Copyright. 1929

The unknown and the unknowable
have always excited keen and persist
ent interest in the rank and file of
mankind. In the last analysis there
must be very few men and women
who are able to divest their imagi-
nation completely of supernaturalism,
ghostism, mediumship and similar
supernatural beliefs. Somewhere in the
warp and woof of human nature there
| must be a genuine native unlearned
tendency to believe in unrealities. Turn
ed IN one direction, this instinct makes
for science and all it's blessings. Give
| 1t the mereSt twist in another direction
and out of it come an avalanche Of
literature and flood of lore whose
dire results can in nowise be measured.
Science and supernaturalism are
close relatives under the surface. Sir
Oliver Lodge Is good example of their
as the unscientif1c, are readily deceiv-
ed by guesses about the mysteries Of
nature. Credulity Is one product of
curiosity.
This instinct on the whole, however,
tends to lead to science, except dur
ing periods of great human stress and
suffering. The World War initiated a
host of left-wing movements in the
direction of supernaturalism. These
were by no means confined to Tennes-
see. AS the late Mr.. Bryan said, This
is a larger scope than John T. Scopes" J"
The Fox sisters, the first famous
American mediums, began their careers
In 1848. They tormented their nervous

a little or for causing a run. To mend
such places inviSibly the hosiery must
be sent to an expert mender, unless the
woman has learned the deft process,
| and, while the cost may not mean
much. it will be something. the price
according with the damage done. What
Is of quite as much moment often
is that it takes a while to have the
work done and In the meantime one
has TO get along without that particular
pair of stockings.
One thing that will help save the
hosiery from getting in poor condition
is to put each pair of stockings away
carefully folded There are neat little
boxes with compartments that come eX-
pressly for stockings. If one of these is
used be sure to get kind with parti-
tions far enough apart for the space
to hold other hosiery besides the extra
sheer. Now that cold weather Is ap-
preaching heavier silk will be found
comfortable, as well as silk and Isle and
silk and WOOL These require half as
much space again as ordinary silk
hosiery and sometimes even more. For
all-wcol hosiery these boxes are scarce
ly adequate.
A good way to fold stockings is to
smooth each one fiat from the back
seam. This will take care of the foot
neatly. Fold the foot down from the
heel so that 1t comes over the stock
ing leg. This takes out the bend where
the ankle comes, making a compare
lively straight length. Fold the stock
ig again over the foot, then from the
top down for an equal distance, and
then over the first folds, making one
length of several thicknesSes. Fold
through the center
An crdiYoorv hov ~,

we'll to hold stockings so folded, and
each pair can be taken out easily with
out disturbing the rest. To do this.
stand one pair of stockings against the
side of the compartment or in the
corner of the box. Do not lay it down
fiat. Stand each pair so folded up
against the preceding one. When one
row is fully occupied. start another
parallel with the first and arranged
precisely as the first.
This arrangement has the advantage
of displaying each pair of hosiery SO
that at a glance whichever pair is
wanted can be selected Immediately.
1t can be taken out without disturb
ing the rest. and when stacked, they
are as well protected as it is possible
to have them 1t is amazing the
number of pairs of hosiery that can
be so packed away in a small space.
This method is preferable to rolling
stockings as was the accustomed way
formerly. Do not pile one pair of
stockings above another. Then a search
has to be made for any special pair,
and those on top have to be taken out
before the needed hosiery can be
reached.

Reducing Diet.

I am going to give you some con-
structive suggestions on eating to re-
duce weight. Usually the woman who
wants to reduce thinks only Of cutting
out what she considers fattening foods
from her diet. She forgets-or per-
haps does not know-that besides
counting calories (Which gives the fuel
value of foods) she should plan to In
clude sufficient proteins, calcium, phos-
phorus and iron.
In order to get enough proteins an
adult should include in her daily diet
two glassfuls of whole milk Cor one
glass of milk and cube Of cheese,
one egg and one serving Of meat. The
milk and egg may be made up into
puddings. There are also small
amounts of proteins in other foods that
make up a well-balanced diet.
Calcium, so important to the health
of the bones and teeth. is found
abundantly in milk and milk products
and to lesser extent in leafy veg
etables and eggs. Among the veg
etables spinach and carrots are rela-
lively high in this mineral.
Phosphorus is third important food
element which is found largely in meat,
eggs. milk and legumes. If one has
included enough Of the protein and
calcium foods in ones diet the phos-
phorus will take care of itself.
Every one is familiar with the value
of iron in ones food. Spinach is
highly recommended on account of Its
iron content. There IS also consider
able iron in dried beans. chard. pota-
toes, raisins, whole wheat and prunes
1t is found in meat, oysters, eggs and
milk.
The practical conclusions that may
be drawn from the foregoing state
ments is that the reducing diet should
not be limited to one or two foods, but
should include variety of fruits and
vegetables, milk, meats. whole grain
cereal or bread. 1t should also provide
some fat to be used on the bread or
in preparing food, and little sugar.

Oysters Supreme.

Six or seven oysters may be served
on the half shell to each guest. Lay
them in a soup plate of crushed ice
with the sauce in glass in the CEN
ter, or in double supreme or cocktail
glasses. A few sprigs of parsley ar
ranged on the ice will give additional
color. Fresh lobster meat or little-neck
clans may be used in place of oysters.
If fresh fish is not obtainable, use alli-
gator pears, cut in dice, and serve with
cocktail sauce.

Straight Talks to Women About Money
BY MARY ELIZABETH ALLEN.

There should be but two ways to pur-
chase for the woman of honest reputa-
ton. Either for cash on delivery, be
1t at home or at the counter, or on
credit, as in the case of the woman
that charges
Before paying in part or in full for
any article one should demand entire
satisfaction. If payment is requested
before, ones best reply is that the
article 1t worth its price or nothing at
all. The price will be paid if the
article is up to specifications.
A few women, but exceedingly few
discount their bills. That is, if they
pay bill a month in advance they
take off half of per cent, because
that is at the rate of per cent per
annum. 1t would be l per cent for q
payment two months In advance. BY
paying in advance one puts oneself
needlessly at the mercy of the seller
and in the event of any controversy
one is in a weak position to seek an
adjustment. G. 0. D. is a good stock
answer to the request to pay in ad-
vance.

There were five in all, one in center
and one at each corner. They stood
about an inch high, thus clearing the
