just as often makes fight.
When the truth is sufficiently
colored it becomes a black lie.
The man who knows properly
how to use his time never has any
of it to spare.
One trouble with an active brain
is that it gives a fellow so many
things to worry about.
The more you lie about a thing
the harder it will be for you when
the truth finally comes out.

mother. In the following extract
Doctor Jefferson comments on
woman’s supreme work:
“A woman’s highest career so
the Hebrew was convinced—lies in
the home. She comes to the full
est realization of herself in mother
hood. Her supreme work is caring
for her family. Her chief jewels
are her sons and daughters. The
richest contributions she makes to
the world are the immortal beings
she molds and trains.
“This is not only the Hebrew
view, it is the human, universal,
everlasting view. Whenever this!
conception is repudiated, the life'
of society is bound in shallows and j
in miseries. j

estimated it cost $730,000,000

price of the “autos." All told, the
immense sum of $1,180,000,000
was spent on motoring in the
United States in a single year.

MODERN GENERALS ARE UNLIKE

Now Do Their Work Out of Sight of
the Armlet They Command, and
Move Men as Would a
Chess Player.
Generalship today is about as much
like generalship of Napoleon’s time
as two-old-cat is like a major league
game, writes Frederick Palmer In Col
lier's Weekly. The general who
watches the battle from a hill will be
blown to bits by artillery fire. I’ve
never seen a general on a horse in
this war. If he travels, it is in a mo
tor car. and he travels very little.
He sits in front of a map covered with
blue and red penciled lines of the
trenches and the enemies. A dozen
experts are around him—each a spe
cialist. He is but the chairman of
the council, the silent man who lis
tens. The others plan and organize;
he nods. Photographs from aero
planes tell him the change each day
in the trenches. He works with a
card-index system of lives and mate
rial. An expert in a brigade com
mand decides whether it’s practicable
to gain a few trenches; the division
staff_decides to Jet. the brigade .qom

mander try, or perhaps carries it u]
to the corps staff, which may in tun
pass it on to the great stalT. A Joffr
or a Von Hindenburg sits on the lid
He must keep his mind on the grea
main object; he must not bother will
details; and he must never, neve
lose his head.
Of Joffre they say that when re-en
forcements are demanded he is alwayi
slow to respond. Yet they always ar
rive if they are needed. In one day
have seen 60,000 French troops pas;
over a single line of railway, for thej
may be sent very rapidly when nec
essary.
Joffre is not caught napping, thougt
he always sleeps his eight hours a
day. Von Hindenburg seems nevei
perplexed, never rushed, though hf
has struck such telling and sudden
blows.
Where Napoleon threw in 10,000 re
serves and from his horse watched
them double past to change the tide
of battle, Von Hindenburg throws
300,000 men on railroad trains in the
night into East Prussia, and everlast
ingly surprises and overwhelms the
Hussians. Meanwhile, in what seemed
a fierce and desperate attempt to
break through in front of Warsaw,
he was only feinting. But he did not
make a half feint. It cost him twen
ty or thirty thousand casualties. The
allied newspapers were rejoicing in
his repulse before Warsaw when he
was preparing his coup in East Prus
sia. Some Germans who were taken
prisoners in front of Warsaw had on
their persons copies of orders indi
cating that the frontal attack was to
be pressed. Perhaps those Germans
fell prisoners very easily.—Frederick
Palmer in Collier's Weekly.
All Danes Can Vote.
Danish women have received equal
rights with men and Danish men with
each other; the recent constitutional
change which enfranchises women and
makes them eligible to all offices also
abolishes the property qualifications
which have helped to keep the Dane
melancholy. Everybody can vote in
Denmark now, even the king. Twen
ty-nine years is the voting age to
start with, but as time rolls over the
little kingdom It is to be gradually
reduced until it reaches twenty-five.
Thus the older a Dane grows the
younger he can begin to vote.—The
New Republic.
Keeping Out of It.
“If I were you I'd see a clairvoyant
before buying this $40 set of 'Famous
Prohibition Speeches' on the install
ment plan."
“The idea! 1 don't believe In clair
voyants."
"Neither do I, but she would prob
ably charge you $2 for advice and
then you wouldn't have enough money
to make the first payment on the

GIVE CONSIDERATION TO EYE
Is One of the Most Wonderful and
Delicate Organs of the Wonder
ful Human Body.
More people are wearing glasses to
day than ever before. But that is no
reason, says the Journal of the Ameri
1 can Medical Association, for the infer
ence that eyes are any more defective
now than they were fifty years ago. It
means simply that the work of today
is more exacting on the eyes than the
work of the earlier time, and that
people are taking advantage of the in
creased knowledge of the structure of
the eye and the means of making it
serviceable. It has been discovered
how the task of the person whose cap
j ital is his eyes may be more easily
performed. Electricity has turned
night into day and made it possible
for the eye to work longer. Lenses
correct the defects of the eye, and, by
lightening the burden, make the organ
equal to the opportunity.
The eyes of civilization are no more
defective than those of people living
I in primitive conditions, and those of
1 men are not inferior in structure to
those of animals. The chief differ
ence is that civilized man has found
the means of remedying the defects
and is employing it, thus adding to his
own efficiency. But this is not wholly
true. There are still persons whose
pride in the excellence of their sight
is refusing them the aid they need for
comfort and efficiency. There also
are persons who abuse their eyes by
guessing at the correction needed, in
stead of employing the accurate knowl
edge they may have. The eye is one
of the most wonderful and delicate
organs of the wonderful human body.
It is certainly entitled to as much
consideration as one gives his watch.
