A girl with a blouse on that is fas­

button is very often labeled “sloppy"
in our minds, although her character
may be lieautlful. A man with a

likely to be given a responsible posi­

out that a man who neglects his shoes
will neglect his work too. Perhaps tba
man, despite his shoes, is a very con­
scientious worker. But how can the
casual observer know?

giene. This statement was made by
tlie ltooseveit conservation commission
In its report on national vitality. The
findings of the commission reversed
■ the impressions of a generation ago
tliat the average human lifetime was a
fixed allotment decreed by fate. It
I teaches now that our doom is a varia-
I hie thing and that it is more or less in
our power to control.
Learning how to live is the secret of
how one may add fifteen years to bls
life. Individual hygiene, or the hy­
giene of personal habits, according to
tile commission, contains possibilities
of self improvement fur beyond whut
ninety-nine persons out of a hundred
have ever realized. Iu other words,
only 1 per cent of people today know
bow to live. The other If.i per cent are
victims of Improper living habits and
the customs of our boasted civilization.
Tliey have not learned to order their
lives according to their physical needs.
Tliey are content to tolerate bad air,
bad food, imperfect teeth, wrong pos­
ture, Improper clothing, constipation,
self drugging, alcoholism and other
conditions of tlie average life.
The ll!) per cent who have not learu­
ed how to live, says the commission,
are responsible for the increase of 41
per cent in the country’s death rate
from wear and tear discuses in twenty
years. Wear and tear diseases are
said to lie the byproduct of civilization,
not tliat civilization is all wrong, but

The German Jonah.
German economicsts are talking or­
ganization of tlie German aflcr-the-
war policy on an anti-American and
anti-English basis in relation for cer­
tain hints of a business war against
Germany that have come from allied
quarters. Tlie Germans hope to secure
a commercial outlet in Russia and
Turkey that will make them inde­
pendent of tlie allied countries in the
struggle for business that will follow
tlie war, anil some of their leaders are
even boldly talking of a business war
against the allied countries.
I
I lie weakness in this scheme lies in
tlie fact that when peace comes the
world’s buying power will be lodged
most largely in the allied countries,
including the United States. It will
be years before Russia and Turkey
will become such a market as Ger­
many will need, and she cannot afford
to wait for this development to take
place. If Germany is to escape eco­
nomic ruin after tlie war site must de­
velop markets for her goods.
Instead of listening to talk of anti­
English and anti-American organ i-
zations, which would merely sow the
seed of further wars, the German
people would do much better to de-
vote their attention to rehabilitating
themselves in the eyes of the world.
That is the only way in which they
can gain tlie trade that will.be so
badly needed.
If the war ends with German au­
tocracy in the saddle, the world, will
still abhor all things German. The
German trademark will inevitably re­
call the ruined cities of France and
Belgium, the outraged women and
the murdered men. No citizen of all
the allied countries can see the I
"Made-in-Germany” mark
without
seeing red for all tlie terrible things
that have been done in the name of
Germany.
But if the German people should
decide to throw off the burden of
military autocracy and join the self­
governed peoples of the world, this
feeling would be very short lived in­
deed, and German goods would soon
find a place in the markets of the
allied countries. If the real Germans
—not tile Junkers and the sword-rat­
tlers—is fearful of the economic fu­
ture after the war, and there is plenty
01 reason for fear, it would better cast
overborad the Jonah._____
The Knocker Gets His.
Old Noah, with his great big smile,
stood leaning on the rail, as out
across the rising tide the ark began to
sail; and turning then he said to Ham

the old tub never sails. 1 never used
to say a ward, Imt kept on sawing
lumber, although I felt a lot relieved
when it began to thunder. And so, my
boy, remember this, and paste it in
your hat, those knockers ne’er will
get a chance to land on Ararat. If
they'd have joined and worked with
me, and made the old ark hustle, they
wouldn't have to worry now, and for
