On The Side Byi.v. DvrVm4 (Distributed by Kins Future Swdicate. las.) Sleep, IltUe kaby, deep, The holy angels love thee. And soars thy bed and keep . A blessed watch above thee. Bleep, sweet, without fear. Where nothing need alarm thee Sleep through the holy night. Guarded from danger and sorrow Until thou wake to light And love and warmth tomorrow. ' Christina Rossetti. (Wh4 was your nightly pray r as a child? Ara your children using it? Hop it is not tha on with sh grim lino: "If I should die before I wait." Did your mother sing you a lullaby? For mothers lacking confidence in their vocal ability some poems similar to the above might be nice goodnight gesture for a child.) Did you ever have a black eye to explain? It is tough enough for a man with a black eye to stand the ribbing of his friends and office co-workers, but con sider the predicament of a young woman in the same situation. Especially a married woman. I know a fellow who got a black eye when a walnut fell out of a tree and hit him. Imagine trying to tell people that's how you got a black eye. This fellow didn't. When inquiries were made he merely said: "No comment." From The Heart. It has been said: "What comes from the heart usually contrives to reach.other hearts." This is especially true of songs. Among the lyrics coming from the heart were those written by Jimmy Blake, for that immortal ballad, "The Sidewalks of New York." Blake was a native New Yorker. His family lived in the same house, on East Eighteenth street, Manhattan, for seventy-f i v e years! The "Sidewalks" referred to were those around the East Eighteenth street neighborhood. The names in the lyrics were those of Blake's friends. Yes, sir, there really was a girl living on East Eighteenth street, named Mamie O'Rourke. And Jimmy Blake often danced with her on the sidewalks of New York. Horses k Women. Where can a young woman, whose height is six feet or over, get attire that fits and is adapted to her figure? Where can a wom an with large feet be fitted with mart looking footwear? Are marriages between tall girls and short men usually successful? Should a tall young woman try to sit on her sweethearts lap? Why do some tall girls make the mistake of trying to be cute? These and similar questions are regularly discussed by the 600 members of the British Tall Woman's association. This organ ization also campaigns to get a better break for lengthy females from dress, hosiery and shoe manufacturers. Get It Right The mass of misinformation in books circulated by public libraries is alarming. Some weal thy philanthropic fellow with a love for accuracy should offer a reward for every mistake found in a book in a public library. Still that might be too risky in a place like Milwaukee. That city's checkers-upper would probably break a millionaire in a week in a deal like that. Any way, I note in a book before me the following: "Adam Kessel dis covered Charlie Chaplin at the Ornheum . theater. New York City ,in a sketch called 'A Night in an English Music Hall . Tne fact is Kessel first saw Chaplin at Hammerstein's Victoria Music Hall in New York City, in a sketch titled "A Night in a Lon don Club." And if the author of the aforementioned book or any body else wants to argue the point let him put up the stogies. Aslcina. Queries from, clients. Q. You frequently refer to the dental practice of transplanting teeth. Is it a fact George Washington had transDlanted teeth? A. A dentist named John Greenwood. of New York City, experimented with transplanted teeth 160 vears aeo. Our first President eave Greenwood's transplanted teeth a trial. This same dentist made dentures for Washington. Q. Who was the character known as "Eat Em Up" Jack' McManus? A. He was the bouncer at that notorious Bowery resort known as "Mcuutk s auiciae nu. Film Rights. For the motion picture rights of her best seller. "Gone With the Wind," Margaret Mitchell re ceived $50,000. The film has now grossed over $30,000,000.

The Empire State building is the tallest in Manhattan. The Chrysler building is second in that respect What is the third highest skyscraper in the big town? That query baffles nine out of ten New Yorkers . . . How long does a suit last you? The British claim to have originated fabric that will give four times as much wear as any other ma terial now used.
