It doesn’t seem to us that any’ drastic action would be necessary to stop beoze—in some places, at least. For instance: Soon after it leaves the bung-hole. In a case like that, one stopper is as good as another. —Why Not?— Courting at Movies Two seats in a dark corner of a movie house in Kingston, England, have been rented by a young man who is wooing a_girl movie fan.

Birth has long been regarded .4ciasa costly occasion, sometimes the oc- casion of profiteering. Diseases during infancy afford further opportunities for taking advantage of people’s igno- rance, Child labor and other ills seize upon the youth almost before he enters adolescence, and fraudulent schemes of education may carry him into ma- turity. Adult life, of course, is a long stretch of abuses. Our food, our shel- ter, our clothes, our leisure—some- where we are almost ‘certain to pay the penalty of living; many of us even re- gard ourselves as underpaid. If we attempt to fly from these demands of exorbitancy the loan shark grins out- side the door. Old age creeps upon us with leering malevolence. From the cradle onward we are harried. And | now comes death to add its finishing touch of trickery, writes Winthrop D. Lane in the Literary Review of Quincy L. Dowd’s “Funeral Management and, Costs.” 'St. Paul's question has been answered.

It would represent twice the value of all the vessels produced in the United States in a normal year, and would be greater in value than the annual rye, barley, or rice crop. The value of power lost to industry through friction has been estimated to reach the staggering total of $185,000,000 annually. Realizing . that friction is. an_undesirable partner of industry, and feeling its obligation as the leader among manufacturers of lubri- cants, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has for years maintained a staff of lubricat- ing engineers and lubricating . chemists, whose business it has been to consult with industrial engineers to solve for them their individual lubricating problems as they are In Defense of Corsets, Sir James Cantlie, the great surgeon and authority on tropical diseases, is a warm defender of corsets. In his opinion the comparative absence of liver troubles. in- women is due large- ly to the equable temperature their bodies obtain through wearing cor- sets. And more boys than girls die in childhood because the former do not wear corsets. He urges men to wenr cholera belts—a strip of flannel around the waist—to give them the protection that corsets give to women, Smashing Proof. “Mrs. Blueblood brags about her ancestors, but I don’t believe they amounted to much—they couldn’t even afford. to keep servants.” “How do you know that?” “Mrs. Blueblood showed me a set of dishes that she said had been in the family for more than a hundred years.”—New.
