SIZE AND LONGEVITY
The life insurance companies have
long looked with a certain reverence
“pon their tables fixing the relation
of weight to height in the human ani-
mal,and with hejudice upon any ap-
plicant who fails to come within a
definite degree of their standard. Ex-
haustive investigations have been
made recently, the results of which.
remarks the St. Louis Globe-Democrat
will no doubt modify the rigidity, of
their rules in regard to what is techni-
cally known as underweight, for these
investigations, covering as they do a
period of years and many thousands
of cases. tend to prove that light
weight is not associated with organic
disease, is no impediment to long life.
These statistics show that the average
durations of life in subjects from 10
to 30 or even 40 pounds under stand-
ard weight is but a small fraction be-
low the normal average.
This important “discovery” is quite
in accord with common observation.
How often has one noted the insistent
longevity of men and women of phy-
sique so frail it would seem the slight-
est disturbance of the internal func-
tions would carry them off, yet they
live on and on while their associates,
with broad sho_ulders and deep chests,
the so-called strong constitutions, go
down, one by one, leaving the suppos-
ed weaklings actively pursuing their
way.

CHILDHOOD

Baby’s Own Tablets will promptly
cure constipation of childhood. They
act as a gentle laxative, regulate the
bowels and stomach and are absolute-
ly safe. Concerning them Mrs. A.
Cromwell, Sandy Cove, N. S., writes:
“I can strongly recommend Baby’s
Own Tablets to all mothers whose lit-
tle ones are suffering from constipa-
tion.” The tablets are sold by medi-
cine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a
PERTINENT POINTS
A neat pile of heavy cheesecloth
squares in the kitchen drawers will
save dish towels from getting stained
up during the fruit season. They are
cheap and easy to hem.
lf the household possesses a type-
writer which is in use, it should be
kept free from dust by careful wip-
ing with a soft silk duster and cleaned
with an old toothbrush wet in alco-
hol, then dried pi! with a soft cloth.
The ribbon may be reversed once, and
it pays to buy the best quality.
If the piano keys grow yellow, clean
them with a soft cloth dampened with
alcohol. This restores them to their
-usual color.
When the housekeeper finds that she
has a lot of old‘saucers and plates on
hand they may be sent to any of the
girls' luncheon clubrooms or leagues
and they will be most welcome. as
such places are always glad of a way
to save expense. Since they are of
use to others, the housewife may not
feel it extravagant to part with them.
There is a square cloth bag fast-
ened with snap catches designed for
steaming clams- so that they may be
drained and sent to table right in the
bag. The clams are thoroughly washed
and scrubbed with a brush and luke-
warm water before being put into the
bag, so that they are free from sand.
The bak may easily be made at home
to hold single portions of one dozen
each or large enough for the family
supply.
CONGEIT OF MAN
Two men sat on the river bank, fish-
ing. One had a bite, and in the excite-
ment he fell into the water. The other
man watched him struggle but did no-
thing to aid him.
I can’t swim! shouted the man in
the water; He went under, and when
he came up he shouted again: I can’t
swim!
The man on the bank watched .him
with languid interest.
The man in the water sank again.
When he came up he gasped: I can’t-
swim. -

due to the want of nourishment, ai-

heart failure.
He was found sitting hunched up in
his oiilce chair yesterday morning,
and it was discovered that he had
been dead for some time when the
visitor tried to arouse him. Only ten
days ago his solicitors asked him to
make his will, but he refused, say-
ing that there would be a million dol-
lars for some one before- he died. He
was a well educated man, but he did
not court friendships, and had but
few acquaintances.
USES OF PLUMBAGO
The chief use of plumbago is in
the manufacture of crucibles and
furnaces which resist the effects of
great variations in temperature. The
best crucibles are made from a flake
plumbago, which breaks up easily
along the cleavage planes. Compact
plumbago, finely powdered_ for the
purpose, is used for crucibles of in-
ferior quality. These have not the
same elasticity as the crucibles made
from the flake plumbago, and when
subjected to great heat, develop fine
cracks which prevent their use a sec-
ond time. The inferior crucibles are
preferred for use at the very high
temperature required for steel cast-
ing, on account of their lower cost,
since under these conditions even the
best crucibles cannot be used a sec-
ond time.
Another important use for plum-
bago is in the manufacture of black-
lead pencils, for .which powdered
plumbago, moulded at. the required
shape, is used.
Compact plumbago and inferior
flake plumbago are used in the man-
ufacture of stove polishes.
Plumbago is used as a facing for
moulds in foundries so that the cast-
ings may separate easily. Sometimes
the mould itself is constructed of
plumbago.
Finally plumbago is of great value
as a lubricant for machinery, espec-
ially in cases where the pressure on
the bearings is very great and the
movement slow.

CHOOSING A SEPARATOR
To get the most out of your milk,
buy a cream separator. These
money saving machines are now
made in sizes to suit all, from the
man with one cow for home dairy
supply, to the owner of a large herd.
The separator will produce better
cream and more of it than will any
other contrivance for taking out the
skim milk, and with less trouble.
The claims of ease for cleaning for
some makes of separators give many
people the notion that any machine
of this kind is hard to wash, but the
fact of the matter is that, although
some makes are more easy to clean
than others, any machine gives less
work in this direction than does a
host of shallow setting pans or quite
a few deep setting devices.
Any person buying a machine must,
of course, look for the best one, and
the most important point is that of
clean skimming, but when more than
one machine is perfect in this respect
other favorable features must be con-
sidered before the‘price makes for the
final decision. Durability, simpli-
city of construction, and ease of oper-
ation are important in the order men-
tioned, and ii’ simplicity of construc-
tion is carried out in the bowl of the
machine then easy washing of the
moat important pmt follows, yet a
china must not be nil-owed to coun-
ter balance poor skimming or want
of durability, which are the most im-
portant items. Coming to the mat-
ter of easy running, the question of
leverage is encountered and the
operator must decide whether it is
easier to make the turns with a long
handle, which gives a mechanical ad-
vantage, or with a short handle which
saves back exercise; allowing that
the`bowl is equally resistant in each
case.

TIGHT SKIRTB AND WAR
It is not long since industry was
complaining of its losses because
fashion had decreed that women
should wear tight skirts. Now that
the tide has turned toward flowing
lines. in Germany, where the supply
of cotton in particular presents a
serious problem, the Government is
considering the need of requiring
women to abandon the frivolities of
the Paris models and to think only of
the demands of patriotism.
Being an undisciplined people, we
tamely submitted to the tyranny of
tight skirts, found them ridiculous
or elegant, according to the wearer,
and let the manufacturers of dress
goods and their employees suffer the
consequence of shrinking sales. A
wise paternalistic Government is
capable of rising to any emergency.
It thoughtless women are inclined
to wear wide pleated skirts and in-
crease the consumption of cotton
goods when cotton is needed for the
use of the army, ofllcial action will
see that they do otherwise.
If only we were a people that val-
ued efilciency, we might borrow
a hint from Germany. It has too little
cotton and we have too much. ln-
stead of worrying about what is to
be done with our surplus cotton, our
Government would merely order all
women to increase the number and
volume of their skirts. As it is, wo-
men will do as they please and the
Government and the cotton growers
must pull through as best they can.
FRIENDS ONCE MORE
It is only recently that M. Churchill
has reinstated _ himself with Mr.
Lloyd George. A couple of years ago
when Mr. Lloyd George was Chancel-
lor, he and Winston Churchill were eo
much together that they were designa-
ted the "Inseparables." Then came.
a rupture which, whatever the trouble,
resulted in the‘two ministers being
barely on speaking terms. Common
views on universal service have
traxller, my son. 1 brought them together again.
LIONEL CAfllDEN”
‘ _ > _ _‘M .
LONDON, October 20.- Under the
heading “Tragedy of Sir* Lionel Car-
den," the Pall Mall Gazette, com-
menting on the death of the late Bri-
tish Minister to Mexico, severely cri-
ticizes both President Wilson and the
.Iifitish Government for the I-Iuerta
i cident of 1914, relating how Sir
Lionel Carden went to Mexico at the
request of Sir Edward Grey, the Sec-
retary for Foreign Affairs, and saved
hundreds of British and American
lives, only to be subsequently brok-
en, it declares, because he insisted
upon the retention of General Huerta
as Provincial President at the Foreign
Secretary's dictation.
“This proved to be the rock upon
which he split,” adds the Gazette.
“The intrigues of the Washington Ad-_
ministration were too stron! for himl
and he was not supported by his own
Govemment, he was compelled to re-
turn to England. -
"Like Regulus he had kept his oath.
going out to Mexico much against li is
will. Also like the brave Roman who
went back to Carthage to face punish-
ment. Sir Lionel returned home to
find his influence underminded. his re-
putation assailed, and his appoint
ment forfeited."
The appointment was the post t
Rio Janeiro which never materialis
ed for him. "Thus was sacrificed?
continues the Gazette, "oue of the
most able, active and accomplished
public servants. By his own Govern#
ment alone did his great abilities
seem to have been undervalued."
DRESS YOUR CHARACTER
Dress your character, not your fig-
ure, is the advice of s. famous actress,
and rather surprising this advice
seems at first hearing. But think it
over well and the excellence of the
idea will appeal to you. Every wo-
man has a certain individuality of her
own-a temperament if you will-
that makes her a. little or perhaps a
good deal different from all other wo-
men. It is the individuality, His
temperament, that women sir- ..l
dress up to, according to the af ~
in order to make the personalit' f . . -
marked and convincing.
But an instinctive carrying .~. ~
this advice with no heed . the
promptings of reason may result in
disaster. For example there is al-
ways the woman who weighs 200
pounds, or thereabouts, but whose per-
sonality is decidedly kitenish. is she
to dress her character or her figure?
There is also the very little woman,
who ought to belong to the cuddling,
appealing class, who yearns to he
impressive and stately. If she insists
uponwearlng the garments of the gren-
adier woman she may spoil her chan-
ces of being fascinateingly charming
But bytwecn these two extremes
there is a very happy medium, and in
this idea of dressing up to ono's typo
there is also a very valuable sugges-
tion. The importance of reflecting
personal individuality in costume is
appreciated by many women who rio-
sign their own clothes and hand the
designs to tailor, drossmakcr and mil-
liner to produce in practical guise.
The actress in her part is always
dressed in conformity with the char-
acter she ia portraying, but her cos-
tumes-and there is an important
point-are made to suit her figure
lines while expressing a special sort
of personality. Therefore, ii’ the
delightful fiounces of the 1830 period
suit your type exactly, but are a bit
trying to your too solid figure, adopt
the flounces but see t it that the
0 Y
are cut and so arranged that the lines
of the silhouett are light.

GERMAN el-urs 1'onPsooED.
CTOCKHOLM, via. London, Octo-
ber 19.- Four German steamers, the
Pernambuco, Soederham, Johannes-
Russ and Dalaifven, have* been torpe-
dded in the Baltic Sea off Dxeloesund
to the south of Stockholm, by a Brit-
ish submarine. The Pernambuco and
Dalaifven were sunk, but the Soeder-
llam and Johannes-Russ are still a-
float. The crews of all the steamers
were saved.
The Soederham, which was loaded
with wood, and the Pernambuco with
'.1 cargo of iron ore, were bound for
Germany. The destinations of the
Johannes-Ru.ss and Dalaifven are not
known.
The Pcrnambuco was a vessel of
4,788 tons, the Soederham of 1,499
tons and the Johannes-Russ of 1,741
tons. The Dalaifven is not mentioned
in available shipping records.
