When great philosopher was asked
what he thought Of Z certain man,
he refused to express any Judgment
saying. II do not know his end" That
was 2 wise reflection for the end is
often different from the beginning
and from the outward course Of lite's
activities and experiences.
To the eye Of the thoughtless the
man whose life is outwardly success
full Is to be envied and admired, but
the wise man looks deeper and in
quires regarding the real nature OF
the success. II It Is founded on good
living and sound principles, or has 1t
been attained by shady and crooked
methods, and by selfish and ruthless
practices?
So, also. the thoughtless man views
with passing sympathy, or with In
tense pity. the sacrifices and suffer-
ings Of his fellowlmen without inolir-
ing at all concerning their purpose.
or the spirit In which they are borne.
But Is life's experience more iusistent
upon anything than upon this. name.
~ that In spite Of Ill seeming access
and excess Of the material things Of
life. many people In the world are
downright unhappy While. on the

MAYBE IT'S FUNNY

It makes one wonder about this
Anne who calls her fiance Augustus"
If she does 1t In spirit Of humor
because, after all. there IS something
FUNNY about that name, we rather like
It. If she does 1t in spirit as SOL
emn as her pronouncement to re-
porters that Augustus will speak for
me-" we rather wonder II this on
coming marriage doesn't need little
leave Of hunhor.
After all, with all his qualities,
Indy has never displayed the slight
est sense of humor. and even his
sarcasm to reporters and photograph
ers is not at all subtly good. His
young lady seems to be chip from
the same block Of ultra seriousness.
Oh well. It's Anne's and Augustus
programmed ours.
Just one word: Have you ever
noticed that the meek, self-effacing
young ladies who take 1t for granted
that Augustus will speak for them
are the ones who get the Augustuses?

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Frnit for Ck11d

Question: r. r. writes: please
let me know through the column
which is the best time to give q boy
Of three years his fruit. Should he
have 1t between meals or with meals?"
Answer: It is usually best to make
an entire meal Of one kind of fruit
If fruit is taken between meals 1t is
better to use 1t at four or five o'clock
in the afternoon before the evening
meal which should not contain any
highly starchy food.
Mental Shock
Question: Mrs. e. D. c. writes:
MY daughter. aged Is, recently had
a severe mental shock which has left
her in an extremely nervous condi-
ton. We have used every method we
know Of to help her back to normal
health, but her progress is slow. VIII
you please suggest something?"
Answer: The effects Of q shock
are sometimes difficult to overcome,
but since your daughter is still young
I feel sure that they will be overcome
In the course Of time. She should be
especially encouraged to follow ath-
letic sports, such as tennis and SWIM
ming. These will help to build up
her health and influence the mental
vitality favorably, although her at
tention should be balanced as much
as possible between physical and
mental activities. She should also be
given a well balanced diet such as
outlined in my newspaper articles.
Figs and Dates
Question: N. J. G. asks: with
what combinations should one eat
figs and dates?"
Answer: Figs may be used as a
de1sert with any protein combination
or with sweet milk. Dates combine
best with buttermilk or any Of the
Tactic acid or acidophilus milks.

GRACE COOLIDGE BROOCH
A brooch of 200 diamonds with a
center stone of two and a half carats
and with platinum chain so that
it could also be worn as pendant
was presented to Mrs. Calvin Coolidge
just before she left Washington. A
unique feature of the gift was the
absence Of any donor list. It merely
went to her as a gift from washing
ton women"
SO Mrs. Coolidge. described as the
most gracious First Lady this nation
has ever known Though time, Of
course, may change that verdict)
becomes again plain Mrs. of Main
street with a platinum and diamond
brooch as souvenir of those days when
she was the most noted woman III the
land.
Speaking of the gift, which cost
many thousand dollars, have you ever
noticed the difficulty of finding q
really unusual gift, no matter how
much money is available? The almost
inevitable answer Is jewels which,
after all. not all women care about
any more than they all care for books
or Persian rugs.

SPRINGTIME

Already there many signs of approaching spring,
although officially is not due to arrive until March 81
Spring is the Of rencarnation rejuvenation and
radiant life 1t Is only to that January represents
the birth of year and the calendar year is an
artif:ai structure With plant life and that OF the
animals the coming Of spring is at the birth Of
new year and new life.
Humanity recognizes and speaks Of year from
January but nevertheless observes from the first
breath of spring. After the departure Of the dreary
and sitting winter and with the coming of refreshing
and magnetic spring there is new life and hope
created in the breasts of and Spring brings
great plans and high resolves which only winter can
demosh deter.
1t is not sufficient to say that the homing instinct
convenient in the spring It is natural and to be
gansaid by man beast. Spring urges the bird to
build its nest, the animal to burrow into its mother
earth and man to plan his home, but neither bird,
beast man knows asks why. Spring is the one
and only irresistible force.
Now it is settled that medical science has heightened
life - to IA years. Somehow it sounds like those gov
ernment reports telling how much money We have
than had last month";

SOUTH AMERICA
Gets NEW ROAD
1OO- Mile Concrete Stretch
Speeds Traffic.

Pg Times SDcctdt
WASHINGTON, Oct. with 100
miles of concrete highway now be-
ing built between Montevideo and
Colonia, international automotive
traffic on a large scale soon will be-
come a reality in South America,
according to a cable to the Wash
ington office of the Pan American
confederation for highway educa-
ton, from members of the United
States delegation to the second
Pan-American congress OF highways.
The delegation now Is visiting
number of Latin American coun-
tries, and recently spent three days
in Montevideo, capital of Uruguay,
and its environs, meeting govern
ment officials and inspecting roads.
This highway, being built under
Illinois specifications, with the most
approved methods, will place Mon
tevideo in direct communication
with the Plate river at Colonia, from
where a modern ferry service to
Buenos Aires will make 1t possible to
cut seven hours from the present
travel time between the Argentine
and Uruguayan capitals and will
make Uruguay resort facilities easily
accessible to large number Of per-
sons in and around BuenoS Aires
and Colonia.
Taken in conjunction with the
road now open from Rio to Sac
Paulo, and the sections under i'm
provement from there to Uruguay,
a long east-coast highway may be
viSualized which, within few years,
will link together Rio and Buenos
Aires. The Colonia highway will be
completed in thirty months at
cost of $500, 600. Brazilian engi-
neers are planning a highway from
