gives none Of them due thought. In
order to accomplish things more
easily and thoroughly, she should try
to learn to concentrate. Apparently
she has the ability to achieve really
outstanding deeds If she will devote

She seems quite vigorous, possibly
of an athletic type. She should en-

guard against any masculine manner

WASHINGTON RANKS 18TH
HIGHEST IN COUNTRY

Olympia, Wash.--Althoug Washing
ton is reputed to have one of the most
efficient traffic systems of the nation,
the percentage OF deaths for the first
five months Of 1881 ranks the state
18th highest in the country.
Records complete to the end of May
showed l42 deaths during the five
months as compared to 80 in the
previous year for the same period as
result Of automobile deaths. Thus,
a 5s.55 per cent increase has been re-
corded, figures showed.
While Washington is in second
place for the Pacific coast record,
Oregon showed q 100 per cent in
crease) California, which claims to
have the largest motor vehicle regi-
stration of the nation, shows only a
9.96 per cent increase.
Death by automobile, which yearly
takes toll greater than war, con-
tinues to mount throughout the ma
ton and is expected to exceed by 5000,
the number Of 1880 deaths, officials
said advance estimates indicated.
During the first five months of this
year, 81 per cent increase was
shown for the nation, 1890 persons
having been killed.
while deaths in the second half OF
last year showed an increase of 80
per cent over the number Of fatali-
ties for the first six months of 1890
deaths during the second half Of this
year on the basis of such figures
would approximate 20,30O," it was said
Only eight states reported showing
actual decreases, Nevada and Idaho
being the only western states repre-
sented in this class.
