LITTLE BENNY
By LEE PAPE.

Trunks always hold good eel but
sometimes they hold more, depending
on who packed them.
A big trunk packed by a lady will
hold all the clothes of at least people
In. case it gets lost while its holding
them, nuthing couldent hardly make the
2 people feel unluckier.
Trunks are some of the hardest
things to lift and carry, taking special
men to do it called express men. They
get very good at 1t on account Of so
much practice, but they never seem TO
axually injoy it, proberlyN not liking
the ideer of always standing in the
same city themselfs and helping other
people go away. Nobody wlnts to be
the one to tell the express men that
they are Suppose TO carry a trunk all
a ways up to the Bird floor insted Of
leeving it rite inside the door the way
they feel like.
When a trunk has to be packed, the
ferst thing to do with 1t Is get It out
of the storeroom empty. Your father
keeps on saying he will do 1t and keeps
on not doing it until finely on the last
day the man that carries up the ashes
does it,
About hour after your trunk has
been threw into express wagon with
20 strange trunks it must be shock TO
remember you forgot to paist your
name and address on 1t and where you
wunted it to go to.
The biggest trunk for the smallest
perpose is a elefants trunk when you
pack it with one peenut.

Everyday Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.
Averages.

When it comes to the business OF
studying human beings, you must de-
pend on averages. The language OF
science is built around that word, even
though all averages turn out to be abb
stract values. This means that an av-
erage is not a fact, but rather central
tendency You will find more 1ndivid-
uals closely resembling this average or
central tendency than individuals vary
ing from it.
The average recruit in the first World
War draft was feet TAO inches tall.
His average weight was 141.54 pounds.
His average chest circumference was
1922 inches.
The average English convict measures
feet 51a inches and weighs LAB pounds.
The average adult man is feet T1a
inches tall. The average adult woman
is feet az inches tall.
The average Chicago man narries
between the ages of % and "a. The
average Chicago wanm marries between
the ages of 19 and 81.
If a man measures 5 feet in height,
he will, according to averages. marry a
woman feet inch tall. If he is
feet inches tall, he will marry wom-
an feet inches tall. If he is 6 feet
tall, he will marry a woman feet 3
inches tall.
There seems to be q regularity in
these marriage measurements, which
might indicate some psychological law.
But who knows what 1t is?

1t has been found, however, that with
out sticking to such regime careless
habits creep in to despoil the grace OF
home life.
It is in the matter of avoiding retro
erosion in the niceties of life that the
guard. It may seem futile to lay the
dinner table as attractively for her
self as If others were to enjoy the meal,
but unless she does she will soon find
herself eating from the pantry shelves,
taking her morning cup of coffee and
having her rolls as she hustles about
getting her housework done or making
ready for the trip to her place of BUSH
ness.
The he.oit of eating carelessly will
not continue isolated Soon this slip
from the beauty of living is followed by
other minor laxities. Then. unless she
brings herself up with a round turn, she
will gradually become careless in her
household affairs, even sometimes to
slovenliness. A habit of thought that
the work is not worth while lust for
me-" she persuades herself. But after
all isn't it worth while?
The woman who keeps herself men,
tally high in her estimation will cher
ish the artistry of home life, and be
as punctilious about sticking to dainty
customs when alone as if there were
others to notice how excellent was her
housekeeping. II it is easeir to serve
herself on a tray, she sees to it that
she uses her choice dishes, the best OF
her silver and glassware. Since she
washes the things she can have little
fear of brcakage She will handle
everything with more care than serv-
ant. Then, too. her appetite will keep
good far longer if she caters to it, and
sets the edibles out to appear most
tempting.
The woman who has lived alone will
have found that unless she keeps
strictly to the methods suggested that
she cannot retain the graces of home
life, The woman who is starting to
live alone will soon appreciate the ne
cessity, whether young person In the
first blomm of housekeeping in little
apartment she has fitted up to her
taste. or an older woman who OF ne
cessity finds herself living ina solitary
existence.

SUB ROSA
BY MIMI.
Aren't They. Though.

Dear Mimi.-Aren't they the limit!
The longer live the less understand
them. Most women spend their lives
trying to be the sort of person their
men want and I'm no exception. The
catch is-try to find what sort of a
person that is!
"A girl who doesn't pet has about as
many dates as a leper. She may be a
model of all the virtues. but lot of
good 1t does her If she isn't ready to
neck and stay out until all hours of
the morning.
Does a man marry one of his little
pharmacies? He does not. When the
matrimonial urge strikes him he casts
around for one of the darling little
Wallfiowers he's never taken two looks
at beforehand he boasts about the
kind of pies she makes; how good she
is with the needle; and that under
her management dollar buys five dol
lars worth of living.
But is he satisfied with her and can
she hold him?
Before the orange blossoms have
faded he's on the lookout for some
other woman. His good little wife, who
is home saving the pennies, rates about
one-half of one per cent of his
thoughts. The only times he is really
aware of her are when he finds but
ton off a shirt or tastes a biscuit she
has forgotten to salt.
He praises thriftiness and falls in
love with the most arrant golddigger.
He likes virtue in girl and won't waste
two evenings with one he can't kiss.
He wants wife who is responsible and
! calls her a killjoy If she suggests they d
better cut down expenses to meet the
overdue note at the bank
Aren't men the limit?"
They are. But, after all, so are
women.
A girl marries playboy and expects
him to develop overnight into serious
minded man of affairs.
She takes for better or worse a good
provider-because she loves nice
things-and then weeps on all her
friends shoulders because her husband
doesn't make love like John Gilbert
or pay her the compliments OF Che
Waller.
She selects a studious professor be-
cause she admireS his intellect, and
then complains that he always wants
to sit at home and read when she
wants to go dancing.
She ties herself to gregarious, So
ciety-loving individual and then nags
him because the house Is always clut-
tered with his worthless friends.
We are all alike, am afraid. Maybe
1t is good thing, though since our
mutual inconsistencies keep each other
guessing, and uncertainty-mystery-is
the ife-breath of interest and love.

An incident in which D'Aubigne

Probably Henry was not naturally
stingy. However, he found France i'm

prosperous. He squeezed money-except,
of course, when he was in love with
some beautiful lady-because it was

Falling Hair.

raining 1aA1.
Dear Miss Leeds-win you please
advise me what to do In order to save
my hair from falling out entirely2
My physical condition Is excellent
according to q physician, yet my hair
is slowly but surely falling out. AT the
present time 1t is very thin on the top,
which is very embarrassing to chap
still in his early twentieS. j. f.
Your trouble is q very common one,
especially among men, and one OF the
reasons for 1t is the constant wearing
of tight hats when out of doors. The
scalp needs the benefit of fresh air and
sunlight, so try going without hat as
much as possible.
But perhaps the most important
single factor in hair health is proper
circulation of blood through the scalp
When the circulation is sluggish. you
can readily understand that the hair
does not get the nourishment which
it needs. To stimulate the circulation,
give the scalp thorough massage every
day and also make sure that you never
neglect the daily brushing of the hair.
The massage should be systematic
and vigorous. Place the thumbs at the
sides of the head over the ears. Spread
the fingers of both hands over the front
of the scalp. Massage by rotating the
parts of the scalp with the tips or cush-
ions of the fingers. Remember that
massaging the scalp does not mean
rubbing the surface of the scalp-it
means moving the skin itself. Massage
the crown and back of the head with
the same movement for several min
uteS.
Next place the fingers of the right
hand on top of the head and with the
fingers of the other hand massage with
! a forward movement from the hairline
to the crown all around the left side
of the scalp. Change the position of
the hands and massage the right side
of the scalp in the same way.
Now massage with rotary move
ment with both hands at once The
massage should be given from 10 to Is
minutes every day.
The following is good tonic for
falling hair. OFae-half dram of sail

cantharides, one dram tincture of cap
