B, ‘That Confounded Umbrella Consider the umbrella. You can’t get away from it } (Yet it always gets away from you, somehow, doesn’t it?) i Man hates the umbrella, Woman dotes on it. Why? Well, an umbrella worries a man. It is always getting lost. _ That's man’s side of the case. ‘dle. It keeps the rain off her hat. (You know what rain nest.) It keeps the sun off her face. It is handy to swat *mashers. That's woman's side of the argument. eA ; The first umbrella was made somewhere in Asia, and it Was a woman's idea. . That first umbrella was a canopy-—a tent without sides. Canopies were first used to shield the first queens from rain and sun when they went out calling sitting in things like hammocks carried by slaves. Soon kings and queens and people like them, too lazy or ‘too foolish to strengthen their weak legs by walking, all had *canopies carried over them by slaves. ; . en one day a society woman started the walking fad ’Thus came the one-person canopy—the first umbrella. It was rather a crude affair—a piece of silk stretched light sticks and a pole in the center. When the kings and queens saw it they got busy and made some laws about it. They decreed that umbrellas should only be carried by nice society people in their own Rover . i Now you can get an umbrella anywhere and pay as high as you want. See your dealer about this. The fall of the umbrella from exclusiveness to com- Monness was really a fall upwards—upwards to democracy.

"ll admit that the army has done wonders for me,” little troubles and ailments than I ever had in a season ‘ore. But after I got to the army camp and began going bed"@arly and arising early and eating regularly and doing ‘the outdoor work, all those ailments disappeared.” ; Now, of course, it is rather expensive to have a war ust to prove to a lot of ailing folk that what they need is dose of safe and sane living to make them well. There age to be a cheaper way of impressing us with that fact. it has been preached to us day in and day out, as we went ong accumulating “little troubles and ailments,” paying or bills ao gp less work and happiness out of our lives. Bill Killefer was that way. Now he knows better. ‘He knows what makes “little troubles and ailments,” also, what doesn’t make them. It wasn’t left to him to take his choice; the war department made it for him. Is it possible that it will be necessary that we place a h department in command, with powers to enforce the fe and sane life, the night of rest, the regular meals, and outdoor exercise?
