SHOULD GET ANOTHER BEAU
Little Probability That Hoojier Girl
Will Ever Eradicate Stingy Streak
From Present Ons.
Tin' stingiest young mau lias been
discovered :iitd he is a lluusli-r too—
Hvii.s in Torre Haute. says the In
<li.i:i: p>ilis News. He lias long lifi'l)
termed u chalr-wnrmcr by tlie family
of I tie girl whom he honors with his
company, for he has never taken her
to a show—even a murine picture one.
As for cnnily anil flowers, well he has
not sent or brought any of either.
As he seemed to he really nice the
girl decided that perhaps lie was green
| —that he needed a little hint. So the
other night she decided to give him
one. After he had occupied about an
hour of her time and also of her fa
ther's heat and electric light, she said:
"Oh. I'm so hungry for candy. Will
| you go to the drug store with me so
I that I can get some?"
lie rose to show his willingness, and
the girl was delighted, believing that
her plan was going to work. But when
tlie drug store was reached anil the
candy was bought. he displayed no In
tentiou of paying the hill. So, of
course, she had to do It herself.
Furious at him and the whole world,
too, she carried the box home and put
It. still lu Its wrappings, on the piano
In the living room. And all the rest
| of the evening she tortured him by
talking of the joy she would have on
i the morrow when she ate the candy.
; BEARDS AS BILL COLLECTORS
! Author Gives Possible Reason Why
Most Publishers Prefer the Clean.
Shaven Face.
TTorhert Jenkins, the I.onilon puh
i Usher who occasionally tosses o!T a
bonk lilmself, tells the story of how
on one occasion when lie was dining
with an author and editor, the author
suddenly called his attention to a man
sitting alone In a far corner of the
restaurant.
"That man," remarked the author,
"has character. He lias a publisher
from whom he can never extract
money. What do you think he did?"
Mr. Jenkins shook a dubious head.
"He went to the publisher's oflice
and demanded payment. There was
nothing doing. Without ceremony he
seized the publisher by the beard and
announced Ills Intention of lumping on
Until he got a check. He got his
money.
"That," continued the author re
morselessly. as he fixed a speculative
eye upon Mr. Jenkins' clean-shaven
chin, "is why very few publishers wear
beards."
Need of a Backyard.
"We simply must have a house with
a backyard."
"For the children to piny in?"
"Xo. We have no children, but we've
simply got to have a place to throw
empty c:n:.-=."

GARDEN CiTiZS HELP TRAFFIC
I Transference of Part of Population
Relieves Congestion on Curs
in London.
Penso morning fogs have combined
with the now chronic congestion of
passenger traffic to mnko Londoners
realize ton vividly the Inconveniences
of nil over centralized population, re
marks the London Times. London is
undoubtedly too large for health, for
happiness and for economical living
and production: and, although the
amenities of life in this and other
greht cities have In some ways been
increased l>y providing dormitories at
a distance from the work room, the
problem of dally transit lias been pro
portionately intensities.
Much Is to be said for the garden
suburb, hut even more for the garden
cliy. The two are often confused or
falsely Identified, but from the point
of view of transport the difference be
tween Is fundamental. Garden sub
urbs represent an extension of the
dally tratlic of a great town to a more
distant circumference; garden cities,
a permanent transference of a section
of the population to a less crowded
center.
Every Inhabitant of a garden suburb
who works in the city contributes
j twice a day his or her share to the
ever increasing problem of traffic con
gestion. The colonist of a garden city,
on the other hand, definitely relieves
the overcrowded centers of the duty of
transporting him to and from his work
and catering for him and his. Dwell
ers in garden suburbs are excursion
ists; the garden citizen is an emigrant.
It is of the nature of the community
to which he belongs that he shall not
only sup, sleep, breakfast and oc
casionally play lawn tennis and grow
beans or roses there, but shall wcrk
there as well: and for Ids reward as
a pioneer ho escapes the strains and
stretches of the straphanger.
Where Did the Colors Go?
John's mother was washing sonic of
his garments. Holding tip one of his
!),>«• wash *ui's, she exclaimed: "Oh.
dear. dear. John, the colors in your
pretty tie*.- s\iit ran." John, who was
having much trouble In controlling n
fiery steed in the form »f a broom
handle, apparently paid little atten
tion. A little while later, he came
to his mother, and said In a much puz
zled manner: "Mother, I can't find
"en: any place." "Find what, dear?"
asked the mother. "Why, the colors."
answered J»lin. "You said they ran.
Where did they go?"

Weeds and Hay Fever.
Interesting observation* ir;i<Tc by
Pr. William Plu>f)]".,r.'ll, president of
tbe American liny Fever Prevention
association, are reported In a paper
published by. Iiim. As a r«- -tilt of n
weed-cutting campaign carried out la
New Orleans In llie sprim of 1010 the
number of liar fever case-; was re
duced to less than ."><> per cent nf the
usunl prevalence. The "eohl slurase"
treatment of tile disease, In which
practically all ventilation Is
In order to Insure llie absence of at
mospheric pollen. Is said to afford only
transient relief, while the low tem
perature Is likely to cause bronchitis.
The effects of an abundant rain on hay
fever patients Is beneficial I" . .ut<e the
rain not only washes the pollen out of
the air. but also permanently removes
its toxic qualities, so that It Is harm
less when n^aln blown Into the air
nfter the rain is over. Tills has been
proved by laboratory experiments, in
which pollen, nfter submersion In wa
ter, was Inhaled by hay fever subjects
without anv apparent oiTcct.
