AUTOS VIE WITH CAMELS
 IN SUDAN OF AFRICA

BERLIN, June 19.-Automobiles in the African Sudan are compet- ing with the camel and the Nile as a means of transportation, ac- cording to the overseas periodical "Uebersee and Kolonialzeitung."
 Motor cars, thanks to improved roads over long distances, have pen- etrated far inland, even beyond the Sudan and hte Belgian Congo.
 As late as 1926 there were only 8l9 motors and motortrucks in the whole of Sudan, whereas there were 2,128 two years later.
 Automobile roads laid out dur ing the last two years connect in the east with the new railway at its junction in Kasala and continue from there southward into Abysinia Here, other new roads connect with the traffic on the Sudanese Nile.

Perhaps no athlete has ever con- founded more and better critics than Babe Ruth. The experts have started to count out" the big slugger on any number of occa- sions, forecasting his immediate downfall only to regret their words and predictions. Such was the case in 1922, when the Babe ran amuck as playboy of baseball; in 1925 when he developed his world renowned stomach-ache; and again in 1929, when illness kept him out of the game for several weeks.
 This spring, they said the Babe was lucky to get his $So,00o con- tract and that he would be luckier to take part in 100 games. At this writing in the first week of June. Ruth has not missed single game, was leading the Yankees at bat, leading both leagues in home

should weigh?
CD I have an aunt who is feet 8
inches tall She is So years old. What
should she weigh?
CD Could you tell me something I
could do to develop my thighs?
READER.
Answer-U) From 1872 to 125 pounds
would be perfect weight for you.
(2) Her weight should be 100 pounds.
CD The thighs can be either de-
veloped or reduced through exercises
For developing them do the movements
more slowly with fewer repetitions and
rest between times. If you allow your
self to become too fatigued during the
exercises you are apt to reduce the
thighs instead of developing them. You
will find swimming a splendid exercise
for making graceful and shapely limbs.
Both the crawl and breast stroke would
be very good.
The following exercises, which are
also very good, may be done at home
% Lie on right side. Raise left knee
to chest, then thrust that leg out and
upward in sideways direction. Re-

Straight Talks to Women About Money

, ties in the market today beyond any
doubt, but proper evaluation of risks
| is necessary.
For one thing, we trust fewer women
are making use of margin accounts,
which one adverse day can wipe off the
books.
Women by this time are generally
recognizing the principle that a woman
with no earning capacity and limited
means has no right to a margin ac-
count. If she persists, she can't expect
others to mourn when her losses begin.
Others have come to concur with us
That 1t is better to double your money
in 10 years and know it is safe mean
while than to lose half of it in 10
months because one has been trying to
double it every 10 days.
we nope more women who are back in
the market are back to buy good stocks
ana securities outright and put them
away where they will be safe from mar
ket tides and human whims.
The market is the place to 90 If YOU
are seeking safe and profitable invest
ments. 1t is no place for the seeker
after easy wealth and multiple profits.
But you who suffered in the last break
know that we are sure.
Go back into the market If YOU have
money to invest. II you have money
for speculation, invest 1t, too. WHY
take q chance when reasonable appre-
citation can be obtained in many sea
soned investment stocks? Big risks 90
with big profits. Don't be in a hurry
10 get rich, and you'll be in no danger
II you are back in the market"

her sense of direction. So finally she
went back to that old can.
I'm stay here while" said Nanny
to herself. Danny is sure to come
looking for me, so the wisest thing
to do is to remain right here"
This was very 7ensible thing to
do, especially as she had no idea In
which direction to look for Danny.
Having the usual amount of feminine
curiosity, she whiled away the time by
very carefully examining that old can.
She went alls around 1t. She jumped
up on it. She went in and out of it
a dozen times. Presently she forgot
all about her Danny. Yes, sir, she for
got all about her Danny. She had be-
come so interested in that old can that
all though of Danny left her.
This would make a wonderful
home" said Nanny. IT could build a
nest inside this thing and it would be
q regular castle. / believe I'll make
a bed in there just to try it. That's
what I'll DOLL make bed in here
and just see how it goes" So Nanny
straightway began cutting grass and
taking it into that old can. She was
was. all her fright. Forgotten was
the fact that Danny was lost. She
was just happy in what she was doing
and that is fine way to be. In and
out OF the old can Nanny ran. Every
time she went in she had a mouthful
of soft grass-soft dry grass, that would
make the very finest kind of bed
BY and by she had enough in the end
of the old can to curl up in comfortably
BY this time Nanny was tired. She
was tired enough to want a nap. So
she curled up in the bed of dry grass
and no sooner was she nicely curled
up than she fell asleep. You see, as
said before, she was tired. She fell
asleep inside the old can and while
she slept Danny Meadow Mouse went
straight past the old can.
You see, when Danny finally escaped
from Flip the Terrier he at once started
to look for Nanny. BY that time hs
could no longer find her scent with his
nose, so all he could do was to 60 IL
the direction in which he had last seer
her going. He knew what that gen.
eral direction was, and, although h.
didn't follow her footsteps exactly, ht
was near enough to the direction to pass
that old can. He didn't pass the enc
where the entrance was; he passed the
other end. So, of course, he had no
idea that he was so near Nanny. He
kept on going and with every step he
felt more and more lonesome.

of truth in that. If there is, it is SO
very small that it is scarcely worth
worrying about in any circumstances.
OF course I don't know whether there

authority. So maintain that until we

rules for keeping up resistance.
The threadbare advice of the health
authorities, in time of flu or pneumonia

curing plenty of fresh air and good
nourishing food" is never taken Seri-

But even if you could duck in time to

! istic designs are the last word in pat
terms, but it must be remembered that
the style of chamber, bath room or
kitchen in which the towels are to be
used must influence selection. Designs
should be appropriate as well as color
correct. One design of arrows immedi-
ately suggests its aptness to mems and
boys rooms.
A novel use for cotton damask towels
is for window curtain for kitchens and
bath rooms. The design covers the
entire surface of each towel, and the
weave and finish make the textile well
suited to this purpose. Colors are avail
able to accord with wide variety OF
schemes. The widths and lengths are
found practical for this use. AS the
towels are completely finished. no sew
Ing is necessary except to stitch a mar
row strip of cotton cloth along the top
through which to run a curtain rod
or to attach rings for the same pur-
pose.
This is but one of many novel uses
to which these dainty and inexpensive
towels can be put. They make attrac-
tive covers for kitchen tables and bags
for busters, etc. AS hand and dish
towels, they afford opportunities to in
clude other elements of beauty into
modern. kitchens. AS bath room fur
sembles gratifying to the eye, since sets
including all sizes and kinds of towels
with q bath mat to match are the
vogue. AS appointments for chamber
and bed room suites the decorative
worth of colorful linens has already
been stressed.

In present schemes for interior deco
ration each item in room becomes an
element or feature not alone of utility
but of ornamental value. Time was, for
instance. when towels and bed linens
were indispensable accessories in a
chamber or bed room suite, but they
could not be said to contribute anything
toward the actual. decoration. They
were superior or inferior according to
their quality and ornamental in the
pattern of the weave.
White was preferred originally to be
varied later by the introduction of color
in borders, embroidered initials and
monographs. Bed linens remained en-
tirely white. Both the items under dis
cuSSion could be and often were eX-
quisite and handsome furnishings with
out contributing in any but a minor
way to the decoration.
Today one of the noteworthy changes
in decoration pertains to these articles.
They have become features to decorative
plans because they are brought out in
colors to suit every scheme, and in de-
signs to conform to various types of
decoration. Cost does not bar home
makers from including these colorful
accessories in their rooms, as they come
in cotton as well as linen and in prices
to cheer the purse. There are sheets
in solid colorS and in white with COL
ored borders and hens only. There are
designs moderniStic floral and conven-

tire surfaces of patterns in reverse color

A Sermon for Today
Keen I'm Your Shirt.
BY REV. JOHN r. GUM

Neither was there spirit in them any
more."-Joshua vi.
With the spirit gone out of them, it is
not surprising that these Amorites and
Canaanites were unable to put up any
resistance against the Israelites who
were invading their land
would about as soon have an army
without any fighting equipment as to
have one without a fighting spirit. A
dispirited army would be just about as
easy to whip as a disarmed one.
The same thing is true when it comes
to fighting life's battles. A dispirited
man is easily licked. When the spirit
goes out of man, he simply can't
fight He lacks the heart to stand up
against trouble and disaster. Let any
little misfortune befall him and he Is
ready to run up the white flag of sur
render.
The worst SOFT of bankruptcy one can
suffer is to become bankrupt in faith
and courage. No matter what losses you
suffer, you are not broke" as long as
your spirit is not broken.
OF these An1orites and Canaanites 1t
is said, Their heart melted" That is,
their hearts failed. Heart failures ac-
count for most of the failures in life.
AS long as a man keeps a brave heart
and fights on he is never failure.
Let man lose heart and he becomes
a pathetic figure. He imagines his diff
f1culties and troubles to be worse than
they are. He is apt to think that the
gods have picked him out as one to
trample upon. He is apt to grow morbid
and sullen. And when one gets into
that state, he is a beaten man.
To fight a winning battle, you must
keep UP your spirit.
