THE "ORDINARY GIRL" AND MARRIAGE HAS the ordinary girl as gopd'u chance to marry well as the exciting beauty whose face and figure demand men's ad miration' That is an old question, perhaps, but here is a new and start ling answer: " "She has a better one. If you don't believe it, count the wives of the successful men yflu know... You'Jl probably not find one ravishing beauty among them." . , Thiif is the view of F. K. Uaily, the English writer of romantic novels, now in America. A keen student of society, romance and mari-iage on two continents, Kaily actually expresses sym pathy for the extremely pretty girl in aii article written for the current Smart .Set magazine. "She seems so darned confident that she can attract the most desirable men," ho says. "And she can, up to a certain point. Hut so often she depends upon her beauty alone to get what she wants. She develops neither brain nor charm of man ner, so that after a man has looked at her there is nothing more to be found in her. Some of the most awful feminine bores I have ever met have 'been simply wonderful to look at. Good looks do draw men's attention to a girl, but that's all. 1I1AT do men marry for? Whi'ii I say num, boys. Think, of the pictures you have seen in the society col umns of the wives of important executives and leading citizens of ull classes. Are they the flashing bounties of this life 7 Do 'they shout sex appeal at all and knees on every possible occasion ?' They do not I . These men's wives have poise, personality and charm. They dress well butinot blatantly. They look capable of setting the tone of the community. You can imagine the sort of homes they live in, refined iuld cultured homes where there are well brought up. children, 'good' book", good, music, delightful entertaining, and not a feast of perpetual jazz; ; "Such women are social leaders, and their husbands chose them because they could provide the right atmosphere. Men who make the most desirable husbands hiivo a profound knowl edge of people, or they wouldn't bej where they are. They know marriage is a full-time job for a girl if she wants to make n suc cess of it." ! ' ! Discriminating men look for charm, sympathy and kindness in a girl, continues the Smart Set writer. "They pick tho sort of girl who makes them feel at home and wanted," he says. "The spoiled beauty may possess these qualities, but usually her life has not been such as to -develop them to any extent. Tho girl who is able to convince n man that he is lovod, and that she does prefer him to anyone else on earth, can always marry well. And she can usually pick and choose among desirable men more freely than the beauty." ' ' Alas! Nowadays when opportunity knocks it usually wants a job. You can't start a revolution in a land where the price of gasolinu worries more peoplu .than the price of bread. ' , ' . Keep away from your idols. If a great man is cool, you think ho is high hat; if he's friendly, you think him overrated. Men may write clever sneers at religion, but they never ask to have one carved on their tombstones. Golf may he the only game that makes you walk a mile be fore taking another swat, unless you count heavyweight fighting. The racket game offers a safe future for the college gradu ate. A gangster is seldom killed except for knowing too much. America gets some lucky breaks. The Grand Canyon, for example, is too far away from culture to be made it dump for tin cans and dead cats. All France needs is some liurbank lo cross the stork and the Knglish sparrow. The dumb have one advantage.' They can't realize how dumb they are. ,. , If you think wealth would make you happy, get a stick of gum and n piece of rope and see if they make you a humorist. AVell, they should have known the. penitentiaries .would get overcrowded when they began to send the best people there. You don't get a diploma when you graduate from the school of experience just the cancelled notes you endorsed.

EVERYMAN'S HEALTH EDUCATION A .correspondent asks why 1 do not have a number of books if they have been writton which would Help a lay man to acquire a working knowl edge of what makes him run, what throws him out of gear, and what to do about it. For instance, isn't there a fun damental anato my for the lay man, and a book containing the es sentials on diet and nutrition? So far as I know there is no book on anatomy especially adapt ed for the layman. There are some excellent books about diet and nu trition. I have often recommended them and I shall give a list of them below. The only way anybody can acquire a working knowledge of what makes the body run is by studying anatomy and physiology. I shall mention some good books on psyslology lor lay readers. When It comes to the question of learning what throws a body out of gear and what to do about it, that's something nobody can hope to learn out of books. And right there, I think, is the chief fault with the textbooks used In schools and most of the health books of fered to the laity. Authoi-B of such books attempt to cover the entire, domain of anatomy, phyiology, hy-' glene, pathology, diagnosis, thera peutics and succeeded In producing haywire. Mottram's "Physiology," W. W. Nor Co., New York, Is worth $3 of evoryman's money, and so Is Stiles' "Human Physiology," W. U. Satin dors Co., Philadelphia. Then Clen dening's "The Human Body," is at least well worth getting out of the public library, even If one cannot afl'ord to pay the six berries to Knopf, the New York publisher, for a copy.

Then of course you must have something authoritative and sound about vitamins, and McCol luin and Slmmonds, the authors and publishers, Baltimore, supply It In their $1,110 "Food Nutrition and stealth." Should you wish to study further along 'this line, McColum's "Newer Knowledge of Nutrition," Macmillan.is a classic, at about five simoloons. For those who are par ticularly Interested In calories and In diet for gaining weight, reduc ing, blood pressure lowering and the like, Hose's "Hat Your Way to Health' 'is published by Funk & Wagualls, New York, at $2. Some people are curious to know what happens to food, beverages and everything ,and Prof. Hawk, a physiologist, not a physician, tells them very clearly in "What We Eat and What Happens to it," Harper & Brothers, New York, for what I often demanded and sometimes got for a night call, to-wlt, two bucks. Along with these selected books I have another, rather for a special class of readers, hut so valuable in my opinion that I include it among the indlspenslble books of a good home library: Mosher's "Personal Hygiene for Women," Stanford University Press, California, $1.50. People who desire a fairly com prehensive health library should in vest in Kosenau's "Preventive Medicine and Hygiene," Appleton, New York, ten little round iron men worth every one of them.

Snakebite For several years I have been carrying permanganate of potash In my pocket emergency kit, follow ing suggestion In some letter you kindly sent me about the Tourist's First Aid Equipment.

The clipping Inclosed Is a letter to an editor, In which the as sertion of Dr. do Ainaral that alco hol Is heneficlnl In snukeblte Is disputed and some "eminent phy siclal" Is credited with asserting that alcohol is essential to the whole body at times and the brain tissues can't do without it. We'll let the "eminent physician'.' joke pass.

This anti-venom can bo administered hy any intelligent person by following the directions with the package. It keeps well In any cllmato.
