YTrittea for tha International Kawa Ser Tiee. New York, Dec. 6. Count Paul Bajnotti of Turin, Italy, little knew wliat he was starting when he so generously made a bequest of $10, 000, the interest of which is to be awarded annually to the "most wor thy" girl in Providence, R. I. This is no criticism of the nobility of mo tive that prompted this act, nor an implication that rewarding virtue is superfluous. Not at all! But the count used one phrase that we fear, may not add to his popularity. He said that the fair and worthy one must be of the "common people." Now who would wish to be dubbed "common"? Hav ing just finished off, a war to make the nation safe for democracy, are real Americans willing to be of the "common people," even if a chap let of roses is thrown in for good measure according to directions set forth along with the emolument? . ft will be interesting to see what developments arise from this un usual bequest of Count Bajnotti. Mayor Joseph H. Gainer of Provi dence is to be the god in the ma chine, and he doesn't like the job a bit, either. He said so in no un mistakable terms. He announced his intention of appointing a com mission of young unmarried men to choose the yearly paragon. The requirement for the honor? The interest of. the $10,000 be quest will go to "a daughter of the people who by her conduct and family virtue is most deserving." And she will be crowned with roses, too. , The wisdom of establishing the annual prize for feminine excellence has been challenged in some quar ters. Again the question of deciding , . . ...... i i . i wnat constitutes wortniness nas been widely discussed. But most of all has criticism been brought against the wording, "common people-" An interesting viewpoint is that of Judge Franklin C. Hoyt of the children's court, who has had ample opportunity of observing human nature. "Opinions differ, as to what makes up worthiness. "the best boy or girl in school that is, the best pupil, said the justice, "may not and often is not the best in relation to his or her fellows. I should say the most worthy girl was the one that showed 1 k:.. ... r. i . i. .. I&ma.'-i . ; (J , has done the most to help her neighbors." This unusual bequest under dis cussion was made by Count Baj notti in honor of his deceased wife, who was Miss Carrie Mathildc Brown, daughter of John Nicholas Brown, 3d, . of Providence, and the granddaughter of the founder of Brown university. It is believed that the happy married life of the count,, though his wife was of dif ferent nationality, led to his tribute to the goodness and virtue of Amer ican girls, in which he was a firm believer. The first woman compositor ever employed in the government print ing office in Washington was a Miss Green of Alliance, O., who went to I work in loU. I -f Most of the ladies in Japan smoke I'hey have pipes with longer stems :iian the men, and. if one of them wishes to show a gentleman a spe cial mark of favor she lights her pipe, takes a whiff, hands it to liim and allows him to smoke. In proportion to population, wom en preachers were more numerous in the United States 50 years ago than they are today.

C the best example to others of Ikt own age. "If this offer going to be taken seriously by. the people of I'rovi-. dence, it should be open to all classes, rich and poor. "I should say we were all the common people. My belief is no class distinctions.", Some versions of the award are to the effect that the young lady to be chosen must be the most "marriageable." ' This side of the situation we discussed with Mrs. Olive Stott Gabriel, noted woman lawyer and social worker. "The most marriageable woman is the one that would make the best companion, the most congenial mental type. Of course, I realize that any one woman chosen in this way would not necessarily be the ideal companion for just anybody," said Mrs. Gabriel, thereby showing that one man's companion may be another's cup of poison. "The most worthy young woman is to my mind the most generally helpful," she continued. "Character generally develops under opposi tion, with women just as. with men, and character cannot be tested till it is severely tried out. "For judges of the girl to be chosen I would have married people and perhaps a few single ones. "Then let them choose a girl with a receptive mind, a fair amount of .-mbitipn, one who shows herself to be actuated by high motives in her dealings with others." ' Another authoritative opinion was given-., by Lieut. Col. Ernest K. Coulter, lately returned from Eu rope and . established as general manager' of the- Children's Aid so ciety. ; ' "When the will speaks of 'com mon people' we must remember we are all common .people," he said!. "Our Declaration of Independence and our constitution both make this plain. The basis of selection might be the helpfulness of the young wo man to the community. "It should not be a matter of phy sical beauty or amiability, but rather thq selection of a young woman who, decjded by common agreement, I IV A Or Edwards Olive Tablets Get at the Cause and Remove It Accept "California" Syrup of Figs only look for the name California on the package, then you are sure your child is having the best and most harmless laxative or physic for the little stomach, liver and bowels.

AN OLD RECIPE TO DARKEN HAIR Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns Gray, Faded Hair Dark and Glossy. Almo.st everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly com pounded, brings back the natural color and luster to the hair when fiuled, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is inussy and troublesome. Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound." You will get a large bottle of this old-time rec ipe improved by the addition of other ingredients, at very little cost. Everybody uses this preparation now, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as -it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or sot brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair His- . .ipptars, and aftir another applica tion or two your hair becomes beau tifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger.
