A plug horse, a plug dog and a plug woman are worthless, according to my idea. Most men don't consider anything but a girl's looks, but I don't want one unless she is as. well bred as my dogs. Recently I have met a girl who scores more points of quality than any other I have seen. She is pretty, sweet, smart, level-headed and will bear knqying well Do you lhhl III is a safe risk? L. C. C. Answer: She sounds good to me. It certainly is en- couraging to hear of even one man who gives the ' l onceoveras carefully to the woman lie proposes to make his wife and the mother of his children as he does a prize dog. It has always been an amazing thing to me that a. man \voudn't pay $50 for a pup without investigating its pedigree and taking into con- sideration the stock from which it came, but that he will marry a woman without ever making an effort to find out what sort of family she comes from, what kid of blood flows in her veins and what sort of inheritance she will bcqticzuh her children. Men are particular about getting a thor- oughbred dog or a thoroughbred horse, but they are satisfied with a scrub woman. Queer, isn't it? Especially when you reflect that nine times out of ten a woman throws right back to her breeding. If she comes of a high- mitidcd and honorable family, she is pretty certain to be high-minded and honorable herself and ntakt: the sort of wife that a man can trust with his honor and his name. If she comes of an industrious and thrifty family, she will have been taught how to work and save and she will make a wife who will be a helpmale. If she comes of a family who have lived together in liflfm0hfl, who hate worth-oiled their iciHW-“F "ml "F" pewed the. rights of others. she will make a peaceful home. Bu? if a girl comes of a family who have no standards of conduct and who lie and cheat, she will make the sort of wife who thinks that what a man doesn't known doesn't hurt him and she will pad the bills and have her little affairs, If she comes of a wasteful and extravagant family. she will be wasteful and extravagant we, and if she comes of a. family who indulged their tempers and fought like cats and dogs, her home also will be a place of turmoil. So it is just as much worth while for a man to give a little thought to his sweetheart/s mother as it is to his dog's mother. For thoroughbreds beget thoroughbreds and scrubs beget scrubs through all the animal king- dom. I think the points of your girl are well considered and come near to being the formula for an ideal wife‘. Good looks-as man naturally likes something that is easy on the eyes when he has to look at it every clay of his life, year after year. Beauty, is not u. necessary attribute of a wife, but it. certainly is desirable. A meringue on the matrimonial pie, so to speak. Stvceihcss- that insures you a wife who is gentle and tender and umlable and who will know how to use tact in getting along with you. Intelligent-you will never be bored with e. wife who reads and thinks and keeps up with the times, and who will always be an interesting com- panion with whom you can chin-chin without ever running out to talk. LevelJieaclctl-commonscnse-the grcatestlof all gifts in a wife be- cause she will never run away with fads. " She will never be neurotic, but will see life fairly and squarely and make the best of it. She will never expect the impossible of you. She will never demand that you be a little tin god. She will pull her weight in the boat and make a wife who is res- ponsible. And better than that no man can ask. DOROTHY DIX. Dear Dorothy Dix-This depression has necessitated a. change of out- look and of plans with many of us, but should we allow it to send us (nto a panic and into cutting away everything which is not an absolute necessity? Is the same view during this time of stress that of doing nway with everything that one can possibly do without? Or should one keep going as well as one can and try to forget the depression when it is possible to do so? That is my problem? Our son is to graduate from high school. He can get a scholarship and will be able to live at home while attending a nearby college, but my husband- thinks that in times like these the boy should not go to college. He should be brought lace to face with the world and its problems at once. He is perfectly willing to support B. until he gets a. job, even if it takes two years, but to send him to college. What should we do? ANXIOUS MUM-TEE. Answer: One of ilie worst phases of the depression has been that people have lost their sense of values and so many have been swept to extremes. Turn- 1d either into wasters or misers. On every hand I hear people say that they never intend to try to save anything again, that they are going to spend as they make it. "Whats the good of denying yourself and scrimping and pinching to lay up a little nest egg for your old age when the stocks and bonds that you thought were so gilt-edged turned into so much worthless paper, and even Qho money you have in a bank is lost in a crash?" break the news to his master. ‘They do not understand," and he sighed. Cynthia uttered a cry o! anguish. "You were too late, Father? Kar- ati—?" He bowed his head. ' "Karati told him, and what hap- pened was terrible.

The word “pyori-hea" strikes terror into the hearts of those who know that once this gum disease starts to take teeth there is no knowing when it will stop. Pyorrhea begins at the gum line and works its way downward t0- ward the tooth sockets. It acts so quietly, that you may have it years before it is either seen or felt. Four out of five people past the age of forty have p_vorrhca—and many of them had it a long, long time before it was recognized. In the end, pyorrhea is the actual cause of half the adult teeth lost. wasn’t it? It is dangerous to take any chances with pyorrhea. Here are two precautions to follow: First, be sure not to forget the address of your dentist. Visit him twice a year, anyway. lie is a real friend in need. Second, pick out a. tooth- paste that does more than polish your teeth. Forhan’s Toothpaste is a thoroughly good cleanser— none better. But it takes care of the gums too, und you cannot have healthy teeth in mthealthy gums. Dr. R. J. Forhan worked 26 years as a pyorrhea s ecialist, and his exclusive formu a cannot be ob- tained by the public except in Forhan’s Toothpaste. Get ahead of pyorrhea. Prevention is the only way.

Elliott WASHING CLOTHES Almost every nation has a. dif- ferent method of washing clothes. The Korean Washerwomen’ are perhaps as hard worked as any. because the men of that country wear extremely wide trousers and dresses! The women wash in cold water always, usually in a running stream, and they pound the cloth- es with paddles, till they shine ul- most as though they had been starched. Egyptian men do the washing for their families. They stand at the edge of a pool. or..a stream of running water. and slap the wet clothes upon smooth round stones. ‘Thlsstyle of washing takes the dirt out, to be sure. but it also takes a portion of the material as well, and holes are the result. Thc Jttpzuicse rip tip their soiled gnriuctits for every washing! Their washing is all done out of doors. and in a. tub about the size of an English dish pan. Usually, they just rub the clothes with the hand till they are clean; but occasionally, if the garments are very dirty, a little extremely greasy soap is used. and they stamp on the clothes with their feet. Chinese ‘women-that is, the lower classes, whose feet are un- bound—wash their clothes by stamp ing upon them with bare feet. They, like their Japanue sisters, DOROTHY DIX.

It was the fever, my child, that the shock was bringing back. He did not know what he was doing. "Kurati was hysterical, too, I fear. Foolishly trying to apportion the blame in the right quarter, he fold Peter how often Sacha and the Spaniard had been seen together since his illness. "Ah, but we arc wasting time, my child," the priest sighed, rising. "We must hurry to him. In a few words I will tell you the rest. Peter, lost in his madness, raced from this place.

And then there is Gaillardia, in a. great num- ber of varieties, extending the de- sirable qualities of the native Gailiarda, known for some curious reason as blanket flower. Planning and planting to give full value to various colors serves to focus attention on the special qualities of the individual plants.

OLD DONDOlVS ROSES Going to London where the roses bloom is one of the things likely to appeal to visitors to the British capital. Of course London has oth- er roees, but 10.000 rose bushes were presented to the oflloe of works by the British Rose Growers as- sociation and are expected to be blooming greatly this year. The Inner Circle garden of Re- gent's Park is the location of these rose bushes. Recently it was nn- nounced that red, yellow, pink and white roess were beginning to peep forth in the garden. Londoners watched with interest the develop- ment of the new rose garden. THE All-ABS BEST FRIEND Most of us know just about three facts concerning the camel. He has remarkable humps on his back; he is used as a beast of burden, and he can go without drinking longer than most animals. To the Arab, the camel means far more: not only can he carry his master and mostiof his master's worldly goods, but he can supply when necessary, nearly all the fundamental essentials of life. The camel's flesh is decidedly edible. When young, it taste! WW much like vcal, and the humll- 5° flit: Arabs. ii-li us, has iliq flavor of beef. ‘flu: milk is excellent and quite ntitriliiaus, though it supplies no butter. Flood and drink are worth much, but thisiwonderful beast goes fur- ther. He supplcs much of the nat- ives clothing. Every summer the long hair is shom and woven into a variety of articles-chiefly cloth- ing and tent. coverings. ‘ It. was in camel's hair garments that John the Baptist appeared M a preacher. The thick hide 0f the camel makes good leather. Nod. drink, shelter, clothing, draft ser- vioe. docility, and reliability- surely this is a. great deal from one animal.

Pinkhamrs Vegetable Compound made in Canada more than one hundred years ago, says the cur- rent issue of Nationatl Revenue Review. The distinction of making that implement belongs to Eras- tus Parsons, a native of Lisle, Broine County, New York. In 1824 he mov- ed to Chippewa, Ontario, near Nia- gara. Falls. He was poor, but had an idea that castJmn ploughs would be more serviceable than those 0f wood and wrough iron. which were then in general use.
