Must Protect Children ici ?f A judge pres.ding over the superior ?r- court of Springfield, MiivUt. husetts, after sentencing a man to four months in jail for "driving an autofbhva mobile so as to endanger lives and safety," took occasion to score drivers in genera! for disregard of the ^ safety of children. The driver c>f an automobile must i do more, the judge indicated, than . use "orb.nary care" when children ;j| aie about. Children, he said, "can i not use more intidligcnee than God '? i ^as Kiven them anil He did not intend / that a child should have the intelliRSi'gc rice of an adult who had benefited by education and experience."

I' ond, scientific gentleman, >iw k from Africa, .says ladies of 150,100 years ago used cosmetic's, "exravagarit ornaments" and painted heir cheeks red. 1 hey went to extremes, wore neckaces made of ostrich eggs, and some )f them painted their faces yellow and black, as well as red. Still earlier, 500,000 years ago, when men used "fiat hatchets," long iharp atones shaped like packaxea, he ladiea, then covered from heatj to root with reddish hair, were probably lulling the hair from their cheeks, loticing that gentlemen preferred i month skin. It has been a long, gainful climb to the flapper of today, >ut worth it. Don't die of cancer?it isn't nec ssary. At the age of forty, one out >i every ten persons has a cancer. 100,000 die of cancer in the United States every year. At least 75,000 lie unnecessarily. Autopsies show hat thousands, dead of old age, take ancer to the grave with them. Hay attention to any strange fiowth on the body. A few seconds .cork will often prevent a cancer spreading. Above all, keep in good ondition, with regular sleep, moderite exercise, much fresh air and your jlood will take care of the cancer. The government has wondered what to do with surplus taxes.

Keep the Billboards Off Your Farm Nothing makes a place look so cheap and run down as billboards plastered over fences and barns, or tacked to trees and posts. The farm er who takes pride in his home very seldom allows such a defacement of his property, and it is only the careless or extremely greedy person who will trade the beauty of his farm for a few dollars. 1 his practice is worse near the larger towns, and many a pretty city has its approaches spoiled by the host of advertising posters along the routes entering it. There is a proper place for advertising, but it most certainly is not on buildings and tree* and fences along the public highway Three thousand plumbers of Brooklyn. N.
