Many a man who never had much of a family tree of any kind has branched out for himself quite suc cessfully. If these young Americans don't rtop those flying stunts they are go ing to tem all the big city news papers into aviation sheets. After observing the type of man tome women deliberately throw them selves at—we know they can never brsg about their aim in life.

Be careful now before answering, because there is a guage by which you can judge your self—and you may be surprised at the findings. Answer accurate!‘How tolerant are you?”—and you - jtiH know to what degree you are civiliz ed. It has been aptly put by one writer that: “The measure of your tolerance is your distance from the jungle." Schooling and manners have nothing to do with tolerance. These are only veneer, lyfany people never develop a sufficient degree of tolerance to qualify as cixilized people. It is these who cause the most of the trouble in the world. They cnicify, they whip at the stake, they raid, they barn, they do not reason. Hate and brutal ity are their answers to logic.* “How may I know whether I am tolerant or not?” you may ask. Here are a few characteristics: When a man says he will not ar gue, he usually means he will not lis ten. He has opinions and he de lights to make them vocal. But when he has told his side of the story, noth ing remains to be said. He construes any discussion of the matter as an ef fort on your part to "argue.” He begins with the assumption that any opinion that fails to agree with his is silly. ^ 4 The world is full of such people.

Old people who have good minds usually have been mellowed and made tolerant with the passing years. Be a good listener. Cultivate the open mind. Be civilized. —- *T " " " V he has to is running along with the laws of the universe. He ie trusting ito the cooperation of events and they do not fall him in the end.

Dr. Frank Crane Says A young man by the name of Or- rell, who was cashier for a broker age firm has recently been arrested on a charge of swindling his employers out of some $244,000. He took his money a little at a time and always hoped to pay it back by making favorable plays in the stock market. He pinned his hopes on the advance in prices of breakfast foods and steam locomotives stocks. They didn^t lead him to the hill of prosperity as he imagined they would, but they dumped him in the ditch. He now says to himself, according to ♦ ♦ THr TEST Of A OWTLENtAW 16 THE HUSBAND 'WHO GfcACfnjUY APOLOGIZES WHEN) THE WIFE IS ■REALLY AT FAULT The Acid Test Martha—“You wife tells me that her diamond ring ig practically price less.” Arthur—“Yes, that’s what the pawnbroker told me when I tried to raise something on it.

Some players at Monte Carlo come away with a pile. But the point is, the chances are all against them. For every man who succeeds and who you hear aibout there are thousands /who fail and ( who are not noted. . The shrewd man bases his acts of life upon averages. He recognizes that there is much luck in human af fairs. But there are certain laws of averages and life in a balance of pro babilities. The difference betwen a man and a fool is that the former pins his hope upon general laws and the chances are in hia favor, while the later fatu ously believes in the exception and usually gets stung. If life means anything to you, don't unneceearily risk it If you want fame and fortune, don’t pit them on the turn of a card. Study to find out what the law of averages ie and follow that law.

Look overhead this evening, If It is clear, and there you will see a swarm of rather faint stars. These are the locks which were sacrificed by the Queen Berenice, and are known as Coma Berenices, or Berenice’s Hair. Berenice was the wife of "Evergetes, who was the third of the Ptolomies .and ruled Egypt about 243 B. C. Pre viously there had been no such con stellation In the sky, but the tall of the near-by lion, Leo, stretched straight into the space that it now occupies. One day the king went to war against the Assyrians, and fully aware of the danger to him, Berenice was much alarmed for his safety. Going to the temple of Venus, the goddess of love, to pray for his safety, she vowed on the altar of Venus that if Evergetes returned victorious she would cut off her beautiful hair and glve~it to the gods. The king did defeat the Assyrians, and when Berenice heard of his vic tory she was true to her promise, and bobbed her hair. Like modern bus- bands who learn that their wives have cut off their tresses, the king was dis tressed at the appeartfoce of his wife with bobbed hair, even though he ap preciated her kind intentions. Astronomer Explains It But his anger was aroused the next day when it Vp*** ng the night, and he consulted his court astronomer and sage, who seems to have been one of the original “yes-men,” Conon by name. He had to explain what had happened, and after due consideration he announced, that Jupiter had himself removed the locks from tlie^temple and placed them among the «tar|. Pointing out what had previously befell regarded by astronomers as the end of the lion’s £ail he told the king that this was his wife’s hair. And as the king was not familiar with astronomy, he took Conon at his word, and he and his qneen were highly flattered at the approval thus shown by the gods. But as the lion had to have his'tail, it has been represented ever since as curled into a loop. * • Legal ‘' State aforesaid, has made suit to me to grant unto him letters of adminis- WHEREAS. tfre said deceased died . finteetefo n0 admfmietrefcon . having been had for more, than six months passed!
