'N FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH NOT HARD TO FIND Seeker Can Locate It in Any ' Spot Desired. Ponce de Leon crossed the high seas and traveled thousands of tulles In a fruitless search for the fountain of youth when he might have found it In his own back yard—so to speak. Like wealth and happiness, health Is something that dejiends quite largely upon the little daily hahlta of mind and body, and these the Indiridual car ries with him even to the ends of the earth. The'doctor, be he never so skillful, has no health to give to another any more than a priest can dole out hap piness or a lawyer blot out a crime. The most that a doctor can do Is to | prescribe and advise and then It’s up to the Individual to find out health for himself. The fellow who Inherits wealth has to hustle to keep It and he has to guide his transactions by economic laws In order to protect his hank ac count. Physical health Is tied up In tha same sort of a bundle. Moot ev erybody Inherits s reasonably healthy body, but there are a lot of prodigal sons among these helm. Homy young fd ows^flud It pretty hard, to work wh« u their bank books ahowVa. balance of a few thousand dollars. Likewise the youth with an abundance of health fairly bursting from his body sometimes feels that his physical resources are Intermin able. Three or four nights out per wvek. a trining cold, a mild attack of “flu." a few “manly" drinks of mean whisky, and the old man with a wick ed scythe sends his niess«fliger, Pneu monia. to announce that this man’s health account Is closed, maybe a bit overdrawn. Lots of people who sends an 8. O. S. to the doctor are like the victims of j wildcat investment schemes who hold _ post mortem conferences with hank ers. A prescription on how to keep well may seem quite commonplace and require one to avoid some of the thrills of night life, but then a real banker never advised any depositor to look for long-chance bargains on the theory that big stakes await the winner, while the loser enjoys the ex perience of the venture. Fifteen minutes of physical exercise and a qne-inlle walk per day coupled with a moderate diet made up of meats, sweets, dalr.v products, fruits, vegetables, especially the green leafy ones, six or eight glasses of water per day, a bit'of, sunshine, eight hours’ sleep, eight hours’ work and eight hours’ play, constitute a pretty fair Idea of what, the ingredients of the fountain of youth are. Ponce de Leon didn't know that, so he looked Jhe world over for what the modern man may find within the threshold of his own doorway. , Artist Prodigals Isadora Duncan, the famous dancer, is in want In Paris, and a collection la being made to set her on her feet again. Otto Kahn, one of the most liberal supporters of this movement said In New York the other day: “laadore Duncan, like most artists of genius, Is too generous, too gener ous altogether^ Her prodigal, reckless generosity once caused John Drew to say abont her In a slack season: M T think I’ll dress up as a beggar and go to Isadore’s bouse, and what I collect may keep her till she gets an engagement.'" Ricardo Cortez This popular “movie" actor who won great favor with the critics by his work In “The Sorrows of Satan” has an important part In “New York,” a story of an East side musical gonius who rises to fams as a compossr and marrlss an hsirssa. O Sttttt**t**tt*tt******ttt* WHAT THE GRACIOUS , HOSTESS SAYS: By OELLA THOMPSON LUDES A BREAKFAST PARTY A NY meal that Is served before one o'clock is a breakfast. After that it Is called luncheon.

The long whlte : dinner doth, however, has no place on the breakfast table. If the refectory table It uaed. It should be left bare, with, postlWy, place mats dr doittes of coarse' linen. The refectory table (long and narrow and very sim ple of line) Is an innovation In the American home, but Is rapidly coming Into popular usage. Its covering- open, showing the wood of the table. The decorations should be simple, with a blue cloth; lilies of the valley with runners of green checked ging ham, pussy-wlllowa wKh runners of orchid; a brown basket of fruit with a cloth of unbleached muslin or heavy ecru linen appliqued In fruit design; a high glass compote overflowing with grapes on a blue-and-white or yellow cloth; or a glass basket In the center, with smaller glass baskets (all allkeV at each of the four comers. Baskets of Dresden are also lovely, and the grass and reed baskets *hat some of us are sufficiently accomplished to make our selves, make very charming decora tions when filled with flowers, fruit or candy. If baskets, compotiers or other orna mental holders are used, however, they must be all alike. Jf the table Is small or narrow It Is not best to use too many decorative articles, but where It Is large, addi tional flower holders, bowls, compotiers or figures may be used. You most, however, guard against getting too many different kinds of decorative ar ticles on the table, ('or Instance, you might use ' an old-fashioued high- standard compotier or “sauce-dish” of f rqoped fIsm—sucl^ as belonged to our grandmother—for a centerpiece. With this you could use four small sil ver or glass baskets or compotiers, or four colored bird-figures st the corners of the table for candy, but these four must be all alike. Your table would look like the glass counter In a depart ment store If each of the four baskets was different (CopyIght. by Tbo Baatmost Syndic*!*.)

We do believe that telephone subscribers who supply the money, will be interested In knowing what part of the money they pay for telephone service goes for taxes In the States of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tern Our total tax bill In these States amounted to $4,4S2,01S during JD2€, an increase of 3S5 per cent since 1918, while the taxable property of the company Increaaed only 141 per cent during this same period ' — The combined tax and wage bill for last year reached a total of 828.884,300. Although the enormous Increase In these two Items ban been reflected In the cost of producing service, the rates charged for the service have not Increased la say thing like the same proportion. ’ "BILL SYSTEM” SOUTHERN BELL TELEPHONE AND TELEGRAPH COMPANY iMeoeyesATte Why Dealer#!
