dollars out of every

Economic experts tell us that it costs the average
family about 70 per cent of its total income to buy food,
clothing, household utilities and all the multitude of little
things that keep a family comfortable and happy.
Seven dollars out of ejery ten and that doesn't in
clude rent, luxuries or entertainment.
Think what a job it is to spend this large proportion
of your income wisely and well. To get the biggest and
best possible value from every one of those seven dollars!
The clever woman goes to the advertisements of her
daily paper for help. There she finds a directory of buy
ing and selling. She learns about the offerings of mer
chants and manufacturers. She compares values. She
weighs quality and price. She takes this opportunity of
judging and selecting almost everything she needs to feed,
clothe, amuse, instruct and generally bring up her family.
Do you read the advertisements) You will find them

23 Or, U"H
Curtail by Gypsies
xTonrad Bercovld. the mags sine
writer, who was born a gypsy. In
writing In Uygela of the habits of
gypsy tribes, comment! as follows
on their use of water as a preven
tive of disease.
"The gypsy believes la. the cura
tive qualities of water. When a
child la bora It la Immediately Im
mersed In running water. When
some one la 111 he la given water-
cold water, bot water, water all tbe
time; water against headaches, as
a cure for rheumatlam and all old
age complaints. When a man I
over sixty they say: lie la drink
ing old age water.'
"They use water to cure Ilia of
horses and cattle and sheep. Even
their incantations for happiness,
tlielr love potions and hate potions
are all water. Naturally a deal of
hokum goea with It. Water la their
religion, their witchcraft. Many a
gypsy baa told me the reason gyp
sies move from one place to an
other is because they are going to
better and better waters to swiftly
running waters. '
"The gypsies use no drugs of any
kind; not even herbs, dried or
boiled. Next to wster, their other
remedy Is fat lard, grease and but
ter. They apply that to wounds
after washing them. Water, grease
and sunshine begins the gypsies'
prayer to Tchluma. the mother of
the world."
Two Theories at to
Origin of "Gazette"
There are two theories as to the
origin of "gazette." It seems thsf
the first newspaper so called waa
published at Venice In tbe Sixteenth
century. According to one theory,
the paper waa lasued at Venire by
the government and came out In
manuacrlpf once a month during
the war of 1S63 between the Vene
tians and the Turks. Tbe paper
was read publicly In certain places
and the fee charged for healing It
read was one "gazetta," which waa
a smsll Venetian coin worth a frac
tion of a cent. Hence the paper
came to be called the "gazetta"
and finally the "gazette." If this
derivation la correct It la parallel
to tbat of "Jitney" aa applied to a
bne which carries peasengera for
a "Jitney," or a nickel. According
to the other theory, "gazette" as
applied to the Venetian paper Is
derived from "gazza," a niagple.
Hence It might have been a fltllng
name for a newspaper. Pathfinder.
Tracti and Track
. Uncle Bill Walker, who lived at
the foot of Great Smoky, became
an eaay convert to the propaganda
of Mormon missionaries. His broth
er, Sammle. an old magistrate of
considerable means and great influ
ence In tbe coves of the Smokies,
was eagerly sought after aa a
"prospect."
Squire Sammle was sitting on his
front porch one afternoon when
two elders of the new faith came
up from the road.
"Brother Walker," one of them
began courteously, "we have come
to tell you about tbe Chnrch of the
Latter Day Saints, and we should
like to leave some tracts for you to
look over."
"That's all right, gentlemen." the
old mountnineer replied without
even inking hla pipe from hla
mouth, "You-uns la welcome to
lenve all the Irncks you want to.

Scientific Basis for
' Chances of Greatness
The older the parents when the
child Is born, says an authority oa
heredity, the surer Its chances for
greatness.
The nrst and Inst born are mora
likely to attain eminence.
The more children a mother has
the longer she lives and the longer
she Uvea, the longer the children
Uve.
Children of professional people
lawyers, physicians and the like
have a better chance for fame than
those born to wealth or those whose
parents lacked educational advan
tages. The offspring of fathers nnder
thirty-one are more likely to become
soldiers; artists come from fathers
between thirty-one and forty; be
tween forty-one and fifty there Is
more of a tendency toward states
men ; over fifty-one come the philos
ophers like Confucius. Bacon and
irrnnklln.
Ninety per cent of the Investi
gated criminal cases show them ro
he the offspring of younger parents.
If your father Is more than elxtv.
and you are the youngest child In
a large fumlly you should become
famous.
A Doctor's Life

The bill read: "Two visits 110."
"You're a robber." said Mr. Bangs.
"Five dollars a visit I It Isn't worth
It."
"I'll rewrite the bill." said the
doctor and Bsngs smiled. They
couldn't put anything like that over
on him.
Then the doctor wrote: "To get-tlr-

Mm Hat Uort Than
One Gripped England
Tbe story of famines la England
has been glomy one from earliest
times.
At the beginning of ths Eighth
century a dearth, which extended to
Ireland, drove men to cannibalism.
It was not until tbe reign of
A eili tired the Unready, however,
that "such a famine prevailed aa no
maa can remain tier, from tuuo to
1016. -
Those chroniclers who were wont
to see bad conditions at their worst,
says the National Geographic Maga
zine, declared that bulf tbe popula
tion of tbe larger laland perished.
But It must bo remembered that
much of the mortality of this period
wss occasioned by the wars between
Aetbelred and Sweyn the Dans, the
latter being forced by tbe famine to
retire from England for a time.
Naturally, tha era following the
advent of William tbe Conqueror
waa one of widespread starvation
sad pestilence among the English
peasantry. During the last SO years
of the Eleventh century, sins wars
years of dire distress.
So great was tbe Jeartn In 1069
that the peasants of tbe north, un
able longer to secure dogs and
horses to appeaas tbslr hunger, sold
themselves into slavery In order to
bo fed by their masters.
All tbe land between Durham and
York lay waste, without Inhabitants
or people to till the soil for nine
years, says Beverly, and another
writer accuses the destitute of can
nibalism. "Dead Shots" Devoted
' Much Time to Practice
I had a man with mo In Texas
and New Mexico surveying for
Santa Fe who knew a thing or two
about drawing a gun, Louis G. Mil
llkln writes in Adventure Maga
zine. I bare seen him put bis hands oa
his head, have another man throw
up a can, draw, bit It with both
right and left gun and return guns
to scabbard before It had reached
the top of tbe throw about 15 to 20
feet (or at least before it had
stopped going np from the lilts).
Ia my estlrostlon st that time he
was a marvel with a six-gun and,
though I have seen others, I never
saw his equal. Mis name was Jack
Median.
Tbe reasons why gunmen of the
"Wild Days" were such experts at
tbe draw and shot, even with tbe
old Frontier Colt, was simply that
they spent as much If not more
time In practicing the draw and
shot as some of our eminent musi
cians spend practicing their art
Within and Without
Why should I hasten to solve
every riddle which life offers met I
sm well assured that the Questioner
who brings me so many problems
will bring the answers also In due

Why should I give np my thought,

Reputation
It would be well if character and
reputation were used distinctively.
In truth, character Is what s per
son Is; repute tion le what he Is
supposed to be. Character Is In
himself, reputation la In tbe minds
of others. Character Is Injured by
temptations, and by wrong-doings;
reputation, by slanders and libels.
Character endures throughout def
amation in every form, but perishes
when there Is s voluntary trans
gression; reputation may last
tnrougn numerous transgressions,
but be destroyed by a single, and
even an unfounded, accusation or
aspersion. ADbott.
