Taste is a matter of tobacco quality We state it as our honest belief that the tobaccos used in Chesterfield are of finer quality (and hence of better taste) than in any other cigarette at the price.

Among the misconceptions tn regard | to the Japanese is the belief held by many foreigners that they are a stolid people. One might search the dic- tionary and not find an adjective less | applicable to them. They have, it is true, attained a self-control that de ceives superficial observers, but under this restraint Is all the fire and motion and effervescence of the Latin races or the Celts. One expression of this volatile and effervescing spirit is a quick wit and a keen humor. A very slight acquaintance with Japanese art will reveal this quality expressed in many forms—in designs for fabrics, lacquer work, fans, carvings, bronzes, screens and kakemono, and last, but by no means least, in many of their delightful illustrated books. Comic pictorial work probably goes back In Japan to the first immature sketches of her earliest artists, and if the greater part of this work has been lost In the serious religiows art that followed, there are still fragments that indicate the humor which animated even the men of the Yamato-ryu. Among these early examples are some In I) Fit and Comfort Knowing that A Great Runawa | IN Price & Workmanship In Style and Fashion In Cloth and Lining you * are measured by a talior of long experience.

HAVE MANY HUMAN TRAITS Scientist Who Has Studied Monkeys Makes Interesting Report Con- cerning Their Habits. “Monkeys flirt and make love. They love to dance, and have some steps that could be converted into modern dances for humans, Like humans, they are social creatures. They work and play and rest together.” These are a few of the conclusions reached by Professor Doflein of Bres- lau, who has been experimenting re- cently with a number of monkeys and chimpanzees from Guinea and the Kamerun. He discovered that they made espe- clally strong friendships. Two of his chimpanzees, Nan and Konsul, were hott imseparapie, whole (ne Whole Cuin; showed a tendency to cling together.

They have several distinct games of their own, resembling child's play, and likewise indicate some sigus of military training, for they march soldierlike, Professor Doflein discovered, too, that monkeys have many of the facial expressions and many gestures of humans. They can easily register pain, surprise, admiration, tenderness. They have a language of their own. They are quick to warn each other of danger. They have regular greetings. Their alphabet is similar to the hu- man, but they can understand Span- ish more readily than other tongues.
