Beating The Air CTi iEw,mpf. item owns me eoy j. at jiii wA'rsoJS ftAPPf (J t.ntiP CH&nr.; i FOP1 A NPIW ARGUMENT OFFICE CAT TltAOC MAHK The reformer seems to be ii permanent affliction of normal humanity. Sometimes, though rarely, his task is an easy one; generally, however, it involves an uphill fight. Of the latter order is the campaign being waged by the editor of a medical magazine in favor of the use by women of more soap and water and less paint and powder. This unsophisticated believer in the power of the printed word avers that a symposium conducted among clubwomen throughout the country reveals a practically unanimous opinion against per fumes, excessive powdering and cosmetics. In the opinion of those consulted, all that is needed to secure skin health and beauty, and incidentally a high standard of morals, is pure White soap, a wash rair and plenty of warm water. They are lenient toward "a little powder," but, to a woman, they are emphatic in their condemna tion of "whitewash and paint," which they consider disgraceful and demoralizing. Perfumes are also brought decidedly under the ban. The promoter of this reform movement allows it to be inferred that the women who express these emphatic views are representa tive of i.he "best thought" in their respective communities. But who ever heard of the world being guided by the best thought in any age? In matters of feminine fashion, above all, it has never counted a whit. Moralists and prudes have inveighed against this, thai.' or the other practice, but lovely woman has gone on her way smiling and unheeding and maintained her fad against all comers until a newer one displaced it. 3.. : ...Ml l, ...III.

The campaign for "truth in advertising" that the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World are waging is most praiseworthy. Kal'sity in advertising is rare, but it is sufficiently frequent to warrant the campaign against it. The "ad" is a silent salesman. It looks at you from the printed page or from car signs or from billboards and you look at it. To win a buyer's favor is one thing. To keep it is another. A false "ad" may induce one sale, but the 'tricked customer does not re turn. The customer attracted by a true "ad" does return, and is therefore equivalent to two or more customers, according to the number of his return 't'rips. "This demonstrates the truth of the maxim that "honesty" is the best policy," not only from the stand point of morals, but from that of self interest. The public is concerned in this advertising proposition. In its own interest it desires "truth in advertising." Advertisers who have confidence in the merits of their offerings are also urged by their own best interests to press for the truth. For falsity in ad vertising, even though of seldom occurrence, reflects on honest ad vertising. No advertiser can afford to be untruthful. Kvery ad-! tferlfcev jvho lina anything to sell worlh buying can afford to be! truthful. H never rains, hut there's Ariz in Phoenix. The sins of Seattle, will come out in (lie Wash.

The Palace OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO o 10 a Value of Affection "Alienation of affections". this legal actiiui seems to be steam ing along to pronounced popularity with husbands who have lost out. Suits for damage running into hundreds of thousands of dol lars are almost daily instituted. Which prompts the query: If the injured parties value a wife's affections so highly, how is it that Ihey lose them so frequently? l-'or presumably the plaintiffs once possessed them, and if they have lost them, many of them have themselves to blame. The high estimation of damages that plaintiffs place on the lost affections of their wives suggests that a little more care trifle more attention lover in marital conduct might have made alienation nioie cult, if not impossible.
