a personality which baa no duplicate.
She exude auch an atmosphere of
buoyancy, good spirits, health, entbq

Klaie " wild a great general to her
at tho time, " when you first came to
France aome one said yon were more
valuable than a regiment; then some
one raised It to a division, but I want
to tell you that if you can give our men

you are worth an army corps."

Or. the touching tribute paid her by

8he is like a bracing, brilliant, sun

In the years I bave been in this
work and meeting public persons I
bave never left the presence of the In

and sheer Joy of living that this won

She la wholesome, sensible and right.
And don't you think she is not an
optical enjoyment calculated to tickle
the most experienced eye. She Is.
Ehe has expression, the most perfect
mouth and teeth, lovely brown hair and
big brown eyes with a laugh In them,
than which nothing more flattering
may be said of eyes of any hue. And
she haa a figure that any girl from It

She Is the Slim Princess on the
beauty stage. In a play of that name
she made one of her biggest hits. It la
one of her biggest hits on the beauty

"What are you going to do with

When I told her I was going to list
her as one of my favorites among
twelve beautiful women, she roared:
"Ho, ho! Ho, bo! That's the funniest

" That's funny about my face," she
said, when I commented on there being
no lines. "I see girls four or five
years younger than I with lines. I
have come to the conclusion It must be
because I have kept the muscles ex

though, now what clso could it be? It
la reasonable to believe the muscles of
the face have to be exercised just as
well as any part of the body, isn't it?
Outside of scrubbing It with soap and
water, scrubbing till It shines, and
rubbing cocoa butter on It because I

MISS ELSIE JANIS.
"Have you any little daily dozen
of your own' to keep that seventeen
year figure of yours?" I asked.
" I have exercised all my life. I
swim, play golf, tennis, and then I keep
on the, move. I like to be up and
doing. It's a sad week end for guests
who come down to Tarrytown with
the Intention of lolling around. We
do the kind of exercise down there
for play that a lot of girls I know
went to a woman and paid her $50
an hour to learn. Maybe you'd call It
roughhouse, but it Isn't any bunk like
paying J50 an hour. I guess I am Just
naturally active a whole sermon, by
the way, In preserving the lines of
youth." i
Speaking colloquially again, there la
no bunk about this girt. While she
talked activity, she practiced it. When
something wan to he brought, the maid
was not preesed Into service. She got
up quickly and got it. Another valu
able hint on figure retaining.
" I don't auipose I'm much Inclined
to be fat, but I do know if I sit writ
ing four or five days I feel more
crowded than when I'm moving
around."
The lack of fat did not Impress me
as much as the hardness of the mus
cles, the erect form, the buoyant
health and the. qmVk spring to her
movements, qualities that many slen
der girls have not, simply because they
are not active musculorly.
There is a rar enihusuann which

NOTHINC
us to t
losls th
plan f
OTHINO bas added more irnpil-
the war against tubercu-
han the accredited berd
fostered by the United
Statea aad state overnments. Proof
of Its value is to be found In the fact
that, while It is only seven years old,
there are more than 400,000 cattle on
the accredited list today. Of the states
operating the system Wisconsin stands
In the lead.
" Accredited herd work was the first
method to give breeders full credit for
efforts to eliminate Infected cattle and
maintain a healthy herd,", says Dr.
J j me 8. IleaJy, Inspector In charge of
the state-federal system In Wiscon
sin. " Kefore the plan was Introduced
the man who found tubercular cattle
In his herd was handicapped In , sell
ing his stock. Since it la evident that
the man wboW!ests Is doing sll he can
to keep bis herd clean, be deserves ad
vantages over the man who does not."
Making Eradication Worth While.
It was an Important step In tuber
culosis eradication wben In 1915 Wis
consin Introduced the accredited herd
certificate. Within two years the state
had fully accredited alxty-flve herds.
The plan was tben adopted by the
United States department of agricul
ture and the United States Live Stock
Sanitary board In Chicago.
Various cattle buying slates had
pasted laws forbidding the admittance
of cattle not tested from sell
ing states. At the time live
stock men appealed to federal and
state officials for protection against
the Inroads of tuberculosis, the test
bad been going on for years, but there
was no recognized national effort to
protect cattle buyers or the men who
were testing. Now this condition has
been relieved to such extent that cattle
on the accredited list can be moved
from one etate to another without re
striction. It Is serving to free pure
breds of infected members and is mak
ing eradication worth while. It li
purely voluntary and is creating senti
ment in favor of the test In all parts of
the country.
Federal AM Gives Confidence.
Pare bred breeders endorsed the
plan from Its beginning In 1917, and
the demand to admit grade cattle was
soon made by farmers who had no
registered animals. A farmer who
has at least one pure bred female and
a pure bred bull may have his cattle
tested.
" The advent of the federal govern
ment gave Impetus to the work be
cause of the confidence it inspired
MY MOST EMBARRASSING MOMENT
Sha Only Turned and Fled.
The only girl in a family of boys is
naturally more or les of a tomboy. I
played with my brothers continually
and Indulged In every form of labor
connected with farm life despite the
efforts of my mother to cultivate In me
those so-called ladylike attributes.
One day my brothers were engaged
In the absorbing occupation of teasing
a cross ram. In turn they stood on the
edge of a bank above a deep creek, and
by throwing their bodies In various con
tortions and emitting a series of throaty
vpwels meant to be war whoops so in
furiated the animal that ha charged
straight at the offender, determined to
burl him over the bank. At the crucial
moment tha teaser would Jump aside
and tbe poor old sheep would splash
into the water below.
When tbe boys dared me to Imitate
tbetr actions I didn't hesitate but
grasped my gingham skirts determined-
ly and sought to surpass my predeces
sors in variety and volume of sound.
Kither I miscalculated distance or
abeeple was getting wiser, for after
violent contact with an extremely hard
object I found myself struggling In the
water, amid the delighted shouts of my
unsympathetic brothers.
But another punishment waa held In
trust for me. While attempting to
creep Into the house unseen I came
face to face with some callers from
town. Among thorn waa the girl whose
name had alwaya been held before me
aa a paragon tha graceful, ladylike
creature I ahuuld aspire to ba. Tha
tomboy knew no way to get out of au
embarrassing situation; aha merely
turned and fled. W. A, M.

On Oct. 1 there were I,S4u accredited

41,536 head of cattle; 6S.Z93 cattle
passed ona test, and 138,893 are under
supervision.
Publish Tented I.bt.
In pointing out the advantages of
the state-federa: ar.tion, 'Dr. Healy
siys the farmer is given the privilege
of shipping cattle interstate by test
ing his herd once a year after the
certificate has been Issued.
All accredited and once tested herds
sre listed In a bulletin puhllahed
Jointly every three months by the
federal and state governments. It
goes to agricultural colleges, live stock
exchanges, breeder associations, live
stock sanitarians, and to farmers who
apply to the agricultural department
at Madison, Wis.
Buyers invariably ask for cattle un
der state-federal supervision, according
to the inspector. Another advantage
Is that a certificate is issued as soon
as cattle bave passed two annual or
three semi-annual tuberculin tests.
Every farmer has good reasons for be
ing proud of such a document.
Federai-Ktato Cooperation.
Wisconsin laws have been modified
to fit the federal indemnity law so
that a true, cooperative, fifty-fifty pro
gram could be followed. Together the
federal government and the state ay
the farmer one-half the difference be
tween the appraised value and the
salvage after the freight charges have
been deducted, with the limits of $90
for pure breds and J40 for grades.
Kor example, if the animal Is ap
praised at $60 and the salvage is
$40, the state and federal govern
ments together pay one-half, or $10.
They also pay the federal Inspector
on an equal basis. Reactors must

jPOULTRY TIPS,
Chinese eggs are apparently causing
little or no worry among poultry men In
this country because of tbe tariff add
prohibitive legislation. Fresh laid eggs
will have a chance to seli at a good
price, and poultrymen can afford IA
double their efforts In trying to find
good laying rations that suit the needs
of their layers' appetites.'
I-'or many years egg producers have
realized the value of feeding sour milk
to their chickens, and now the Mis
souri station bas been running tests
that prove the value of this protein
feed. The best egg records were made
where hens were fed sour milk as a
aupplemi-ct to the regular ration of
grain. Tankage ranked next to sour
milk as a protein supplement. Bran,
shorts, and com meal, equal parts,
and a limited amount of grain as
scratch feed was the mixture used.
This has been an sxcpptlonaTly
favorable fall for chickens to get I
the habit of roosting outdoors, espe
cially this year's pullets and cocker
els. It's time to do away with all out
door roosting places wnerever pos
sible, and drive the birds out of tree
to indoor porches. It takes more feed
to keep the birds in good condition If
they roost outdoors In cold weather,
and the egg production Is usually held
in cheek until tbe birds are forced t
roost inside. ' .
be slaughtered within thirty days
after being appraised. To maintain aa
accredited herd all a farmer must da
Is to have his cattle tested once
year by an accredited veterinarian,
who may be a local man. If on the)
government's approved list, he holds
a certificate and is authorized to teat
for export to Canada and foreign coun
tries. " Well, I cpuld put them on and g

Improving the Heme.
I am In the habit of doing quite a
bit of sewing for myself daring my
spare time in the office. The boss
went out of town for a few days and
I brought down some curtains to sew.
After I had them finished I put them
on a large ruler and hung them up on
two nails, the same as I would do on
curtain rods, to see if they were
straight.
I turned around to find the boss had
