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.

Dresden are also lovely, and the grass

Jf the table Is small or narrow It Is
not best to use too many decorative
articles, but where It Is large, addi

however, guard against getting too

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

Firemen Refused Job
The fire alarm sounded from the
outskirts of Ward 7. Bangbr, Maine,
and when the firemen arrived after •
hard run In deep snow, they found
no sign of fire, nor could sny one In
the neighborhood explain why the
alarm had been turned In. Finally an
old woman appeared and said that her
family was In great distress. ▲ skunk
had fallen Into their well and she
thought the firemen ought to pull It
out But the firemen did not.

Taxes Are Reflected
In Telephone Coets
A LTHOUGH taxes form a large pert of the cost of pro
ducing telephone service, this eompaay does not object
to paying its Just proportion of the taxes necessary for the
support of ths government, tbe schools and other public
institutions.
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. ’
