The nation has a feeble-minded hallucination that Prompts it, as soon as a problem of any sort rises, to try to solve it by a new law. How many problems, tackled by creation of new statutes, would be solved sooner and bet- ter by leaving them to the natural laws, such as cause and effect? Fetch an adding machine. Another thing we need is a house-cleaning of statute books, weeding out the obsolete junk useful only as prec- edents for delay. . Lucky for Us TABETES killed 24,580 Americans in March, 1923.

BOUT 20 years ago, when women began flocking into business after generations of seclusion in’ Ameri- home, business men began to sense the commercial bilities of a pretty face and soft voice. ne telephone companies tried male operators early in inthe game. But customers were so rough with “Central” over the wire, and called at the office to stage a fight so often, that the companies began to hire girls. Restaurant men know that waitresses bring more busi- ness than waiters, as a rule. Each pretty waitress at- tracts her own following. It’s the same in stor from clothing to tobacco. Beauty is a commercial asset. They're even turning elevators over to fascinating young misses. Biology is getting on a business basis eo «@ catering to men, all the way OVERNMENTS are incredibly stupid in not using women as diplomats. Germany, for instance. She might get better terms at a reparations conference if she were represented by ravishing vamps instead of solemn statistical gents with heads like gourds, Women have become a fixed institution as lobbyists around most legislative bodies. Why not try them inter- nationally ? And their beauty wouldn’t be the only advantage. Fen.inine intuition and practical psychology would help, not to mention their brain pow They'd take to the game like a duck to water. In former centuries, women like Du Barry, pewers behind the thrones, made whole nations their toys. What Folks Are Saying DR. I, M.
