Miss Mabel Xormand, the black eyed film queen, who Is encountering considerable difficulty in maintaining her.cuteness and cussed ness, seems to have been guilty of nothing except the Interview she guvo the papers after the late shooting. Fewer blondes changed their status In 1022 than In 1023.

ABOUT A U:i.li KILLING Thero seems to bo a benign confi dence among tho law abiding mem bers of the- law. abiding members of tho social group that a criminal is in fear of the horrors of death and that tho mystery of the electric chnlr ter rorises his droama. It so happen that death in the electric chair Is about the only painless death I know of, A man is knocked unconscious In tho split of a second nnd what linger ing minutes follow to add certainty to tho first shock belong to tho eter nity of deuth so far ns tho condemned man la concerned. Tho one punishment that remains is, that Inflicted by tho clergy who are able to convince a doomed man of a hereafter. Kvcn hero tho element of hope survives and when a man dies kissing a crucifix nnd remembering that Jesus Christ was of a compassion and tenderness Infinitely beyond tho compassion nnd tenderness of a moth er, there Is a splendid consolation that Intervenes to cheat tro barbarity of low. Death by execution is pointed for every one but the criminal. Its main emphasis is Its dignity. Homehow. to stand In a chamber with seventy other solemn owls, magnificent representa tives of society, and see a nmn, shrun ken and bulldozed by a fore-ordained end. shnmhle up to tho machine that will kill him, sit down with tho hu mility of a sneaking husbnnd. and take death without a murmur. Is de grading. The egg shell that Is a human being is crushed instantly. The godlike quality sung by poets becomes a cosmlo sneer. The thing takes on the quality of a practical Joke in heaven and one feels that the race, rising seldom six, feet above ground, must look to the Joker like no many dM-kroaches crawling Importantly about and defiling their hills. . . .

Ah far as the news dispatches go, Miss Norm and was guilty 'of no crime, and according to Hollywood standards was, in calling upon Jlr.

Girls love consistent men. A con- Is one who luys girl- sistent man Is one thV-.lar"'fof hW b('st vacation in Honolulu slic returned to the screen, and there was no public protest. That sh&uUl have been a lesson. But apparently it wasn't. In less thau a year she figures in another unsavory episode. Right or wrong, moral laws are pitiless masters. That the guilty way be punished it is inevitable that the less guilty, and even the in nocent, should sometimes suffer. It is quite possible that if Miss Nor mand is forced to abandon the screen, she would suffer out of pro portion to her just deserts, but such occurrences are, after all mere incidents in the inexorable moral scheme. Where there is so much smoke the public will believe there must have been some firo. And with these two episodes as evidence, noth ing Miss Xormand can say will remove the suspicion that she lacks those qualities they demand from an accepted movie heroine. So there you are. And there also is Miss Xormand. In moral matters ignorance is always bliss. There may bo many screen stars whose private lives are far darker than hers, but she had the misfor tune to be discovered. And also she hud the poor sense not to keep still. The moral of the sad tale is as old as King Tut. Those who never play with fire never get scorohed. QUILL POINTS cents. Restaur ant' people, who feared the ordinance would reduce the demand for milk and boost the price now main tain that they han- patients play during midsummer in the snow with bathing suits on. This seems to . mo too rigorous for" chil dren. Could you advise. me as to the authenticity of that statement? (H. L.) Answer. It Is probably the open die milk with less air and sunbath treatment, such trouble in this way. Ilollier made famous at Leysin. Switz erland, in the cure. of . tuberculosis, particularly tuberculosis of bones, joints and other organs In children. This method is In successful use now at various places in this country, not ably in the Adam Memorial hospital , at Perrysburg N. Y. . The youngsters are very gradually and carefully ex- ' posed to the sun and afr, never with discomfort, tho area of skin surface exposed and the duration of exposure being both gradually increased i from Chicago has re c e n 1 1 y adopted a rule requiring that milk be served to patrons In individ ual containers. Los Angeles follows a similar rule, the health authorities reporting that a state law requires that all-milk served in restaurants, etc., must be in the original bottle and opened in the presence of the The more vices you quit on the first of the year, the more quickly you can get the Christmas presents paid for. ' Another reason why husbands are not uniformly courteous to their wives is because few women could survive the shock. There are fewer burglars now. No need to break houses when one can print a few pretty stock certificates and break suckers. Vanity is the quality tlint makes you buy things you can't afford to keep the neighbors from thjiking you can't afford them. "JUST TOWN TALK" Copied Right B?

MeDoodle say, "My luck is something fierce; it's like a cloud, opaque and, gray, that .sunshine can not pierce. It overshadows all my life, and queers my every plan, and after years of toil and strife I'm still an also ran. I do not rank among the sjiirks, my zeal has known no slump; yet my bum luck has gummed the works, and sent me to the dump." "It is not luek, 0 mournful skate," I said, with tender smile; "you're always half an hour too late, for anything worth while. You argue matters to and fro, and twiddle doubting thumbs; and while you jiirgue others, go and gather, all the plums. You argue matters pro and eon, 'Shall I do this or that'? and while you argue James or ,Iohu or William goes to bat. You're always holding stern debate, you can't make up your mind; and noble chances pull their freight, and you are left behind. A quick decision now and then might change your luck, odsfish; for fortune will not wait on men who don't know what' they wish.

The Baltimore health authorities strictly prohibit the sale of bulk milk from cans or urns. Now York permits tho sale of dipped milk; about 50 per cent of all milk sold In New York is dipped milk. The New York health authorities say tuberculosis from developing or to cure It if the disease haa already be come active.

Their notion about that is well answered by tho experi ence of Sacramento. Boston Is of course even more "con servative" than New York. The Bos ton health authorities report thnt "milk is sold in some of our first class restaurants by tho bottle." Buffalo has no law or ordinance. Philadelphia lets 'em use pumps In restaurants. . Cleveland has a strict ordinance In its sanitary code, requiring individual bottles; these must be capped by a mechanical device, not by hand. Milwaukee reports that 60 per cent of the milk sold by restaurants is served in the original half pint bot tles. -ino managers of the restaurants now declare they would not go back to tho old milk can Bystem. Ql'KSTIOXS AND ANSWERS Tuberculosis nnd Cough Please let me know whether ono must have a cough with tuberculosis. And let me know what Is. good for it. I am 23 years old, 5 feet 4 inches tall nnd weigh 87 pounds. A year ago I weighed 136 pounds. Answer ns soon as possible In the paper. (E. M. H.) Answer. In some cases of lung tu berculosis there Is practically no cough for a considerable period: In fact it is sometimes difficult for tho patient to raise sufficient sputum for microscopic examination for tho presence of tubercle bacilli. In active tuberculosis it is generally better to avoid coughing as much as possible. One or the good lessons a patient learns in a sojourn in a tuberculosis hospital or sanitarium Is how to re- ; velope, I'll be glad to suggest a com petent specialist by mail. and fol lows It ntinsea. too. A consistent man hats to see his fiancee smoke in public, and he hates just as heartily to see any other wom an smoke in pub lic. The moral code which he applies to a girl is precisely the same as he la'3 down for his own conduct. It's a great pity there are not more men like this. A consistent man believes in the fifty-fifty .- deal in morals, money and marriage. No single path for him, and another for his lady love. Consistent men are essentially fair-minded men, just men. and above all. mighty intelligent men. .Modern Eves are not deceived by the poor chump who fancies that superior man may have his fling and then tame down to calm domesticity. Girls admire consistent men and are never assailed by doubts, suspicions or pre sentiments of evil. Consistent men play the game fair and square as matter of course. Sauces You Never Forget Certain hotels have a country -wide reputation for their wonderful meals. It 1b usually In the prep aration of some famous sauce that a chef gains his reputation. There is hardly a chef of repute who would be without KITCHEN. BOUQUET.
