No man ever knew as much about
anything as a woman knows about
dress.

It is safer to learn from your en
emies than it is to. instruct your
friends.
Depressions are akin to detours
rough riding, but they finally lead
into the main highway.
A tip to reformers: He alone

clearly what it cannot do.

Peggy Hopkins Joyce, and we all
cheerfully concede that Peggy is a
first-class business woman.
Southern California U co-eds say
five per cent of a man's appeal is his
ability to understand clearly the
word "no." Anyway, that leaves 95
per cent for maybe.

A Chicago doctor positively guar
antees to restore Lair on bald heads
and his office is being stampeded
with lustcmers. They're all hair
mir.ded, so to speak.
: o :
In these days of depression a lot
cf people who have more money than
they deserve are grouchy because
they have been forced to slow down
instead of speeding up.
-:o;
Any member of Congress who
imagines that Uncle Sam's income
tax deficit can be wiped cut by boost
ing the higher brackets ought to be
told that there will be mighty few
higher brackets next year.
Bear this in mind, young man: If
you are planning to accomplish some
thing worth while In this world, you
must be prepared to pay the price,
and the price is often terrific. There
is no easy road to fame or success.
A client visited his lawyer in one
cf our modern office buildings the
other morning and complained about
the room being over-heated. Nothing
strange abcut that. It was the place
where the lawyer made his, daily
bread.
Apropos of that scientist who tells
us that it may be possible to manu
facture synthetic steak frcm a slice
of pine wood: Time and time again
we have tackled a filet mignon that
seemed to have its source in a rock
ing horse.
-:o:-
A rumor comes from Washington
that Vice President Curtis may marry
before the clcse of his term of oJice.
after which he hopes to become a
diplomat. If he is seriously consider
ing matrimony he had better Tie a
first-class diplomat.
Treasury officials a; Washington
say there will certainly be an in
crease of Federal taxes next year, but
I "n't say what they will do wrh ?
money. If Uncle Sam will fire about
fifty per cent of the employes on his
payrcll. retaining only these who are
efficient and engaged in worth-while
work, we could have a material, re
duction of Federal taxes next year.

-:o:-
It's a rather painfui discovery, but
cur people are waking up to the fact
that a tire isn't the only thing that
can go flat.
:o:
It's a funny world that jails a man
for a small breach of trust and hon
ors an official who wastes every
body's money.
Look over the lists, and you will
find that the great charity v.-ork of
the world is done by people who are
relative-sly poor.
:o:
A shooting gallery exclusively for
women patrons has been established
in New York. Of course all the tar
gets are dummy male figures.
Uncle Sam is mightily pestered
about his trade relations. He doesn't
knov. who to trade with, and is al
ways in doubt whether their money
is good.
-:o:
Mickey Cochrane, star catcher of
The Philadelphia Athletics, is suffer-iiv-r
with a severe cold. That boy
must Lave been doing without his
chest protector.
"There vi!l he little change in

After all. this may be the right

downward nobody's money will be
worth much, anyway.
:o:
Mankind may, or may not, be de
scended from monkeys, but still the
monkeys have several distinct ad
vantages over us. They have never
learned to kill one another, and they
do not cherish hatreds.
:o:
A member cf Congress from one
cf the Western states says he ac
quired facility in debate by arguing
each day with his barber. It is quite
pesFible that he also could report
some differences of opinion with his
wife.
:o:
A woman who cannot remember
anythirg at all about her name or
antecedents -vas found the other day
wandering through the streets of
Tew York. Possibly the poor crea
ture lesi her mind while trying to
understand depression in a land of
plenty.
:o:
The latest hostilities in Manchuria,
we are told, broke out when Chinese
trcops fired on a Japanese company
which was cut. attended by the prop
er officers, on a "practice march."
Apparently they wore good enough,
so far as impressing the Chine? was
concerned, and didn't need any more
practice.
APPROACHING THE GREAT
Souvenir hunters, according to
newspaper dispatches, have already
begun to descend on Milan, O., birth
place of Thomas Edison.
Eark has been torn from trees
about the house in which the inven
tor was born, and all kinds of loose
objects have been carried away.
Presently, no doubt, there will be
souvenirs for sale, and passing motor
ists will stop to be photographed in
irent of the birthplace, and the usual
dreary and insane round will be in
lull swing.
Just how any man in his senses
can be gratified to possess a bit of
bark from a tree that grew by the
house where Edison was born is a
trifle hard to understand. But this
hunger for trivial mementoes of the
great is an old one, and it expresses,
however clumsily and cheaply, a very
real need.
For human greatness is not such
a common thing that we can calmly
pass Iby the places where it has
moved. The ordinary mortal, for all
his occasional braggadocio, is a very
humble sort of person. He knows, as
11 as anyone else, the greatness of
the gulf which separates him from
m Edison.
And so, when he gets a chance to
touch the skirts of greatness, so to
peak, he 'akes it; and he takes home
:i bit of bark, or a banal snapshot,
or some similar trinket, not because
his soul is cheap and undiscrimin
atirtg but because it is the only way
in which he can have some tangible
reminder that he was once in the
vicinity of a man whose head touch
ed the stars.
In the regular course of events we
get precious little to bolster our self
estetm. Signs of greatness are rare,
both in ourselves and in our neigh
bors; and the daily record cf human
silliness and greed that newspapers
give us is not apt to be inspiring.
So. when we bump up against the
earthly trappings of a man who was
truly admirable, cur impulse is to
grab off something anything, even
a pebble or a bit of eld cloth as a
keepsake. For it is something more
than a visible sign that we have
traveled and have seen fine sights.
It is a talisman by which we can
reassure ourselves that the race to
which we belong can, on occasion,
produce some magnificent specimens.
:o:
FLOWERS FOR THE LIVING
S. R. Patten, an 80-year-old farm
er of Benton, 111., attended his own
funeral the ether day. But he didn't
repose in a pearl-grey coffin. He sat
very straight and listened to what
the preacher had to say. He enjoyed
the funeral and heard so many ap
preciative things about himself that
he doesn't want to stage a bona fide
funeral for a long time.
Several weeks ago Patton learned
that his relatives and friends were
planning a birthday party for him.
He asked if they would mind making
it a funeral instead. He explained
that he wanted to enjoy it.
The idea isn't such a bad one at
that. Of course, ministers would
wear out thefr texts and funeral
quartets would feel like throwing
their hymn books in the River Jor
dan if every man, woman, and child
suddenly decided that he wanted an
eulogistic service while he can en
joy it.
But when people are old. when
they know for a certainty that the
long road is going to end around the
next bend, or the next, when their
caravans are composed of pretty
much memories, it is rather fine to
let them know that they have been
appreciated as they came down the
pathway of the years.
Old men dream dreams. Their
period of visions is over. When the
wanderlust creeps into their hearts,
it carries them through the tangled
f.elds of long ago. The supreme lone
liness come3 in knowing that there
are few people left who belonged to
their questing yesterdays. It is piti
fully hard to realize that a world that
has sent its ships up toward the sing
ing stars, and fathoms deep under
the sea, can't be much interested in
what they have done or what they
wished they had done.
Patten know now that his friends
and his community appreciate him,
and that they are gcing to be a little
lonely when he waves a last good
bye. He knows that they appreciate
the fact that he has grown old cheer
fully and bravely, with a song in his
heart and a lantern in his hand. The
rest of his life will be based on the
happiness that came at his funeral.
It shouldn't be necessary to hold
funeral services for old people in or
der to pay tribute. Some other name
should be applied to the method of
shewing appreciation.
But when a man or a weman is old,
and a little lonely, it isn't any more
foolish to let him know that he was
a blessing to his generation than it
is to wait until he is dead and tell
the public about it.
HOW TO MAKE LET-
TER USE OF LAND
The overexpansicn of the agricul
tural plant of the United States In
various directions is emphasized by
the report of the federal farm board.
The question now emerges as to how
to create a better balanced agricul
tural situation.
If it were possible for an agricul
tural expert with the authority of
a dictator to allot the tillable land
of he country so as to make the best
use of it, there would be an end of
overproduction. Also, to a very great
extent, there would be conservation
and improvement of extensive areas
that long have been deteriorating.
Although arbitrary allotment is not
possible, a national program, intelli
gently and forcefully presented and
continuously urged, might in time go
a long way toward achieving the
same results.
Some such program is expected to
result from recent and forthcoming
conferences of agricultural econom
ists and representatives of farm or
ganizations, federal land banks, joint
stock land banks, intermediate credit
banks, state and national banks and
other institutions having extensive
relations with land assets. Thus the
land problem proper w ill be linked up
with credits in such a way as to ex
tend enlightenment and promote en
deavor along the lines of best util
ization. What is needed most is the with
drawal of so-called marginal lands
unprofitably used for primary crops
from this field and putting them to
ether uses calculated to make them
profitable and at the same time re
build the soil. Overproduction is a
matter of acreage. Yet economists
insist that the acreage causing over
production can be and should be re
duced, not only to cure overproduc
tion, but to the advantage of land
holders, piovided the landholders
know their business. The adminis
tration plan is to give owners of lund
the best information obtainable for
more discriminating and mere profit
able use.
Secretary Hyde, in discussing this
subject in Chicago, recognized the
policy of Governor-Roosevelt in New
York state as a step in the right di
rection. But he also said that a sin
gle state could fnot satisfactorily
demonstrate the value of the policy,
since overproduction is a national
problem, and the policy, too,. mus he
national if it is to be 'effective. As
there is no way to apply government
control, which in any case would not
bf desirable, the procedure must be
educational, and that is the proced
ure cf the administration.
Concerning reclamation of new
lands and putting them into cultiva
tion. Secretary Hyde declared against
any new enterprise of this character,
unless privately financed, but he be
lieved the projects under way should
be completed. There has been much
criticism of the Hoover dam project.
Yet the lands brought under culti
vation by this enterprise could be,
and, it is believed, wiil be used large
ly for the production of commodities
which are imported extensively, such
as Egyptian cotton, dates and sugar,
the dates and sugar coming from
date plums and sugar beets respec
tively. It is the tendency of operators
of irrigated areas to specialize. The
best line of specialization, conditions
being favorable, would be iu com
modities which are imported and on
which the importers must pay not
only heavy transportation charges,
hut duties as well.
GOOD USE FOR AN ARMY
Germany witli'more than 4,000,
000 unemployed is mobilizing its
military forces to collect such things
as its householders will give in the
way of food, clothing and fuel.
Throughout the nation trumpeters
cover the city twice each week and
proclaim to the inhabitants that
army supply wagons are ready to
make delivery.
Coupled with the military effort,
the railroads are' hauling shipments
free of charge to the unemployed.
Also, unemployed are permitted to
purchase potatoes, bread and fuel at
oncthird less than the regular
charge; rent to the unemployed has
been automatically reduced 40 per
cent, and a relief payment ranging
up to the equivalent of $6.75 a week
ij made to unemployed men with
families.
Germany's response to the need is
bigger than any comment that can
be made upon it. Armies and navies
cf ether nations now and again have
been employed cn missions of peace,
nnd here is one which is particularly
humanitarian. The citizen's love for
the Fatherland and love for his fel
low men are represented in this work
of the Reichswehr. Certainly none
will begrudge Germany the siza of
its limited army under the Treaty
of Versailles where the feeding of
the needy is concerned. This instance
should aid other nations to see how
their now-armed forces can profitably
be mobilized for peaceful purposes.
WOMEN: watch your
What should women dct to keep their
bowels moving freely? A doctor should
know the answer. That is why pure
Syrup Pepsin is so good for women. It
just suits their delicate organism. It is
the prescription of an old family doctor
who has treated thousands of women
patients, and who made a special study
of bowel troubles.
It is fine for children, too. They love
its taste. Let them have it every time
their tongues are coated or their skin
is sallow. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
is made from fresh laxative herbs, pure
pepsin and other harmless ingredients.
When you've a sick headache, can't
eat, are bilious or slugaii.li; and at the
times when you are most apt to be
constipated, take a little of this famous
prescription (all drug stores keep it
ready in big bottles), and you'll know
why'Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is the
favorite laxative of over a million
women!
