 Andicl Ehortrs Think

Washington. May II R-Sail through South America!
 That is . dream of future travel reinforced by recent discoveries re- ported by two German explorers. The Germans bring news of a water link between the Amazon and La Plata river systems.
 The Casiquaire, nature-made canal 225 miles long was discovered in 1744 to connect the Orinoco riv- CT with the Amazon Some similar water link long has been sought in southern Brazil connecting the Anna zon with the Paraguay or Panama. thus linking the Amazon and the La Plata territory.
 With proper development, the National Geographic Society be- heyes, the three major river sys- tens of South America could offer an itinerary like this: sail from New York to Port of Spain, Trini- dad transfer to river steamer en- tering Orinoco delta and traversing river 7S0 miles to Atures, limit of . deep water navigation: take launch above rapids through Casiquaire canal to the Negro: 1000 miles down the Negro to Manaos; trace Madeira tributary of the Amazon, turning at Guajara Mirim into the Guapore: enter headWaters of the Paraguay and float into the Panama down to Buenos Aires,
 The voyage from the mouth of the Onnoco to Buenos Aires would cover an estimated distance of more than 5000 miles.
 Com. De Pinedo Zacchetti, en- gineer. and Del Prete sailed over most of this route on their remark able sea plane flight through the center Of South America. They flew the first plane to go up the Para guay river and down the Guapore and Madeira and Manaos. From Manaos they turned down the Anna zen to Para instead of using the Casiquiare route.
 Their success suggests that sea- planes or amphibians will use the flowing roads of South America be- fore steamers. Speedy planes can move a traveller into cooler air where insects are absent and can cut across the river bends that 10 lengthen a steamers journey.
 Extension of the present Haiti air service would bring planes on past the Lesser Antilles 10 the Orinoco mouth. The river route to Buenos Aires is the hypotenuse of a tri- angle whose outer point is Pernam- buco. Twenty-one days sailing time between New York and Buenos Aires could be cut to one week or less, with all flights made by day light.
 South America has not yet grown up to the advantages of its natural river transportation system. The Amazon alone has 5000 miles Of nevigable water. Ocean steamers can go 2,50O miles up the Amazon to lQuitos, which is like steaming on an ocean packet boat up the Niesissippi and Ohio to Pittsburgh.
 But few go to lquitos, because neither the Indian nor the white man has yet harnessed the luxuriant vitality Of the tropical forest to the needs Of man.

Strangely, Charles II assembled the
throne Of England largely through the
efforts Of a woman whose father was
a blacksmith and whose mother was
a common person Of the London
streets.
who could have dreamed, in the
days of Anne Charges obscurity, that
she would become the Duchess Of Abe
marie and, indirectly, the most in
firential person in England?
She is described as being a vulgar,
homely, boisterous person, ill-tempered
and seldom without q curse On her
lips. She did not shrink from physical
combat and the story goes that she
actually chaStised her husband with
her own fists. She must have been
terror, for her spouse was brave
soldier and a doughty fighting man.
He feared her more than an army.
The romance Of George Monk and
Anne Charges Is one of the most Curl
Gus in history. Monk, younger son of
a baronet, and therefore with mediocre
prospects In life, fought against Oliver
Cromwell, being an adherent of
Charles I. He was captured by the
the Tower of London, where Cromwell,
who admired his military genius, sought
in vain to get him to turn against the
monarchy. Ultimately he was released
and served under Cromwell, but not
against his King. He was sent to
Ireland to subdue the rebels and to
Scotland to restore order.
While Monk was in the Tower, pen
niless and forgotten, Anne Charges
acted as his seamStress. Gentleman
and wanton conceived a strange fancy
garity, Anne had good heart. She
aided Monk financially and brought
him comforts that made prison more
endurable.
Eventually he married her, though
not until he had had several children
by her.
Monks military genius made a gen.
eral of him. On the death of Crom.
well he became the first person in
England.
Outwardly. at least, this was true.
But If the chronicles of Anne Charges
contemporaries are to be believed, she
was her husbands directing genius
She was, in short, his boss ruling
him with clear seeing vision, a vitu-
perative tongue, and, II necessary. fly
ing fists. But, as rule, he realized
the value Of her opinion and fCl-
lowed 1t.
Surprisingly, she was q royalist. And
once, when personal ambition almost
steered him back into proper chan
rlels.
Through the French Ambassador
Monk plotted with Cardinal Mazarin
to seize and hold the English govern
rnent, France agreeing 10 help rim.
Suspecting something was atoot, Anne
hid herself behind curtain and dis
covered everything. She called In the
council Of state and thwarted TIE
plan.
She was guided partly by dream
In which she claimed It was super
naturally revealed to ncr that the
monarchy was to be restored. Ter
rible person that she was, she would

THOSE which are being particularly

suited to her type are tans IN every

colors best suited to the medium blonde
are suited to her also. She may apply

BY medium blondes I mean those
who have a medium complexion, light
brown hair and blue, gray or brown
eyes. This type looks its best in reseda

creamy flesh, dull brick, bronze green,
pinkish tan and golden browns, pale
pink and old rose. If the skin Of the
medium blonde is clear, she will find
pale orchid, blue violet, silver gray,
white with 4 pinky tint, soft brownish
reds, pale yellow and champagne are
lovely. The hazel-eyed medium blonde
will look her best in pinkish tans, mig

clothes and accessories have q benef1cial
effect on the physical and mental health
of the wearer. This undoubtedly ac-
counts for the pleasure and comfort 80
often experienced in wearing some par

It is very important when you are
selecting a becoming shade to consider
your eyes, hair and skin, being very
careful to avoid those which will give
you a faded. unhealthy tinge or q too
harsh and ford appearance, and choos-
ing those Which win enhance the beauty

Love at First Sight.

Does man fall In love with q girl at
FIRST sight" or is it necessary for him
to have ever SO many once-overs before
his eyes fash upon his heart?
We hear often about q man who
fell In love with the girl the moment
his eyes rested upon her. Then he
knew that she was meant for him. We
do not hear so much about those other
men who had to look a great many
times before their eyes we're sure they
were right. In the meantime, they had
to look at some others just to be sure
they were making no mistake.
AS a matter of fact, a man who falls
in love with a girl need not take his
tumble the first time he glimpses her.
Indeed man may be with a girl quite
a while and not be certain as to the
all the shades of gold and corn, amber
and seal In her hair--well, that's too
much to expect of him.
Nevertheless, believe that when
love does arise In mans heart 1t is
when he takes his first true look at the
girl. Before that, he was only glancing
or squirting. But when he sees her
as she is, he fails in love with her, II
he's going to do 1t at all.
Love is not an experience that moves
along step by step like donkey on a
shaky bridge. Love takes. the plunge
or does not move at all 1t doesn't
dawn on a man one rosy tint after
another, but shoots into his sky like a
day-spring.
Real love at real first sight Is quite
the thing to expect with the human
heart. knowledge may be built up
little by little, and habit may be formed
by little deeds, but love is full expert
ence which of a sudden fills and over.
flows the human heart. That's why 1t
appears at first sight.
It may be that the men are near
sighted or that women practice con-
cealment, but it takes a man long
time to get the view which is going to
wrench his heart.
But when a mans eyes are so en-
lightened that he gets the love closeup,
he sees that there's only one girl IN
the world for him. One real look was
enough, and it may be that 1t was not
until the girl was ready to let him see
In her eyes Just what she was that he
got the glimpse which settled him.
My advice to the men is to keep on
looking.
Among the other looks will be the
real first one which will hypnotic their
Inaculine orbs into love. There are
many days in a month, but 1t may be
that several will have to pass before
you have a clear one.

sure to be disappointed. Her colors
must be chosen with regard to her own
particular type, and just because
another may look stunning in o bright
red frock or perhaps one which is of
greenish yellow. 1t is no sign that
milady should select something of that
hue.
The pure blonde with fair skin and
pale gold or f1axen hair is quite in luck
this season, for she is of the type who
can wear all black with distinction,
Black coats, black afternoon gowns, as
well as black frocks for evening wear
are very much in the mode. The fair
blonde may also use creamy or ivory
shades, pale yellow, golden hues, pure
blue or green in all shades, orchid. blue
violet, flesh, old rose and most shades
in pink and pastel tones.
II her eyes are blue she would be
wise to wear a good deal of that color
in her costumes, for 1t will bring out
more wildly the blue or violet Of her

 Barnes said he was sorry farm board policies had been discussed because business was willing to give the board a chance to get started. He also said he objected to the conference of Chairman Legge of the farm board and the boards plan of leaning money to wheat co-operatives at the current grain price with the understanding that the producers share in any subsequent increase.
 Barnes testified he never discuss ed the farm board with President Hoover.
