But eugenics Is more than thK In an Interesting book compiled by tho Hygiene Board of the Life Extension Institute, with a preface by no less 11 person that William Howard Taft, It Is donned as tho sclenco of the "conscious betterment of the human stock." In this book, written by Prof, Irvlnar Fisher, of Tale, nnd Dr. Eugene Lyman L'lsk, soven Important rules are formulated which should bo of moment to tho person seriously Interested in eugenics. They arot 1. Learn to analyze Individuals Into their Inheritable traits physical, mental ftnd moral, 2. Differentiate between socially noblo nnd Ignoble traits, between social nnd educational veneer and sterling Inherent capacity. 3. Do not expect physical, mental and moral perfection In any one Indl idual, but look for a majority of sterling traits. 4. Observe tho presence or absenco of specific traits in Individuals at nil bges of successlvo generations and fraternities of a family line. 6, Learn how to estimate the Inhcrltablllty of such traits in a family line, upon specific mating with another family line. 6. Join your family lino to ono which is strong in respect to the traits In which yours is weak. 7. Remombor that injuries can bo Inflicted on offspring by unhygienic living. Most of tho opponents of tho eugenic movement hold that an accept ance of It to a great degrco will mean the passing away of tho good old j soul-stirring, heart-throbbing sentiment; that It will mean tho elimination of that intanglblo something, tho definition of which oven tho Immortal Webster has fallon down on love. But although this book emphasizes the need of a State Eugenics Board, I It assures us the eugenics does not mean compulsory or govcrnment-mado marriages, nor does it necessitate that the human slock hn Imnrnveil hv mat. 1 Ings that nro academically ideal, but which lack tho clement of "individual i attraction and instinctive, lovo." On tho whole. It's an interesting tract, the name of which I will gladly let any ono have who Is interested. Almost Correct "Tho Inside of the Pup" and tho "Adenoids of Virgil" are two books Tor which a Philadelphia librarian wus recently asked. She wasn't really stumped, however, until a youngster requested her to show him n picture of , "The Spinach." Long did she puzzle nnd long did she hunt.

"That's all right," a woman I know' retorts, "If all married women were financially Independent. Then thcro'd bo no reason for secrets. But suppose you must ask your husband for every cent you get and suppose that ho objects to tho theatro nnd you don't. Bellevo me. that's tho tlmo to prove that tho dominant male still exists. That's tho way that secrets between husbands nnd wives have their origin. Put It down to tho narrow-mindedness of the dominant malo and you havo your answer.

D, GRADUALLY we nro overcoming the hoary old superstition that anything with a powerful odor will keep off disease. And tho best of our modern antiseptics or germicides are odorlos.s. Carbolic acid, In solution or In salve, does have a nice, heal ing sort of odor, If ou like that sort of smell But it Is one of tho most harmful antlbcptlcs you can use Carbolic arid Is an alcohol, not nil acid. Phenol Is the official name for It. It re ceived tho niimo of "acid" because of its caustic effect In contact w.h living tissue Tho local antidote for that caustic or burn ing effect Is alcohol grain alcohol. One may bathe the finger with pure phenol for a luiuuto. and when It has turned white, bathe It with pure alcohol, and the effect Is completely neutralized Remember that. In the event of an accidental burn with carbolic The remedy Is alcohol, freely and continuously npplled. This caustic action of phenol renders It utterly unlit for antiseptic use No ono would think of dressing a wound with car bolic dressings nowadays, unless he were willing to assume tho responsibility for any poisonous effects which might, ensue A strong carbollo ucid solution, kept for u considerable time on a simple cut or wound, sometimes causes gnngrene. It always delays healing, bccaue it destroys the delicate new skin cells Carbolic was the original antlsoptlc Introduced Into sur gery by the fathor of antlsepla, Lord Lis terbut Lister himself eventually learned the dreadful poisonods properties of phenol Carbollo Is the type of all germi cides, the standard with which any al leged germicide is compared in tests But the drug is so exceedingly harmful that there Is no longer Justification for employ ing It as an antiseptic, whatever other Uhe.s It may have In medicine. There are plenty of safer antiseptics to take its place for instance, boric acid solution, or tincture of iodine. Peroxide, that other standby of the household medicine chest, Is a Joke. It will grow germs If you don't wntch It and It will drlvo germs deeply into tho wound If you do And the watching of the bubbles constitutes tho whrtlo charm of this antiseptic. You see It work whether to your advautago or your dis advantage doesn't matter. It looks Inter esting. And It comes high. Take away tho odor, tho foam and the funcy prico fiom theso two chemicals and what have you loft? Just enough danger to mnke them exciting. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Still Outgrowing It I am 22 years old and have had a run ning ear for 1C years. Doctors havo given me medicine and told mo I would outgrow It I nm almost deaf In the bad car. nnd my other ear Is Infocted. An ear specialist gave mo vaccine treatment, which Improved tho conditions, but did not quite stop the discharge Answer We supposed tho doctors had outgrown the habit, but evldi-ntly they are still at It. Why not keep on with the vaccine treatment? That, plus the open-air life. Herp Is a rule without ex ceptions: No onu over outgrows any dis ease. Thyroid Treatment What effect would thyroid tablets have on a very stout person If taken under a doctor's prescription? It worries mo some, as many doctors say thyroid Is harmful. Answer If your doctor prescribes it for you and sees you at regular Intervals It Is absolutely right. It will work miracles In proper cases. But thyroid Is like a surgical scalpel not for self-treatment Just what advantages nro open to the stenographer, tho simplest, most ordinary kind of n stenographer who holds down n "Inti" nnd nnthlnt- Mora lUSt What thlS girl can mnko herself If sho makes up her mind to learn Is shown by tho career of Miss Julia Blankenberg, who, by tho way, Is not related to our ex-Mayor. Miss Blankenberg camo to Philadelphia and took the first chanco which came her way. In this case an opportunity to uo stenography for a largo engineering con cern. "I wasn't holding a position then," sho tells you "I was Just hanging on to what I could get because I hnd to eat. Little by little I made use of overy detail, overy bit of Information which would glvo mo n better Idea of tho business After becom ing office mnnuger nnd private sccrotnry I got my presonl position Just what you would call this I don't know, but I should call It 'oulclal phraser, for ono thing. "When we undertake to appraise a property, wo send experts in this line out to the place Now theso men, In nine cases out of ten, know exactly what they nre talking nbout when they send In re ports of conditions, but they hnvo neither the tlmo nor the power to write this out. I have to edit all tho reports, not only on engineering, but on nny subject which comes In my line of work. This Includes everything from Iron castings to Bhoe fac tories. If wo nre appraising a shoe fac tory, I must bo entirely familiar with the output, tho financial expenditure, the la bor system and all tho details of tho work In that place. If there Is a decimal out of place in one of tho men's reports, I must be able to son It. Some of theso re ports cover 20, and some 200 pages. Theso must bo digested, and the conclusion drawn. "By drawing a conclusion I menu that I, as secretary of ono of the members of tho firm, nm in touch with tho firm's pol icy on such matters and I find out, before I rend a report, their principles of action of tho subject. It stands to reason that these principles must be Just nnd tho con clusion valid, becauso It means that per haps hundreds of Innocent pcoplo nre wait ing to invest in tho concern which Is under investigation. My work, then, Is to cx amlno tho data on hand, verify tho ap praisals, correct tho figures, If there nro any corrections, nnd draw a conclusion fiom these details which will bo satisfac tory to all concerned. "It takes experience to learn theso things, but a woman Is fitted for tho work to n certain extent. I hnvo noticed the difference between men and women In this work. Men nro nble to plan big Issues, to construct great works, but it takes a wom an to look after tho small things, 'to co ordinate the detnlls, so to speak. I havo made myself entirely familiar with the way small communities nro managed In FcnnHlvnnla, for Instance. "One year I traveled over 1!) counties taking notes of the conditions. 1 met mill workers, social workers, expert construc tion men; I climbed mountains and In ono caso rodo over 170 miles of transmission lino with binoculars In my hands looking for breaks In the Insulation. "I nm not a graduate engineer, but I have to know engineering terms suf ficiently well to use thorn Intelligibly and correctly. The management of public utility works Is our greatest task and the most interesting ono. Wo nro dlsclnles of the famous efficiency expert, Fred Wlns low Taylor. Rverythlng Is elllclency to day but, unfortunately for us. It Is not possible to put your hand on any ono quality and call It efllclency. However, applying the working principles of sci entific management to a. big concern, mak ing a classification of expenses according to tho Tuylor principles, Is wonderfully In teresting. It means that you can take in hand the working routine of a great concern, improve It, do away with the slightest waste, help tho emplojes in ways which nre incalculably valuable for the present nnd the futuro and learn some thing new at the samo time. "Speaking of efllclency methods, I want to tell you what I havo nutlet U In my reports, not only now, but during the last nine years that I have been doing this work. There never was a tlmo when employers nnd industrial managers did more for their workers than today. They have bettered conditions at least 100 per cent, inero is no comparison between the present and past methods. In this one case, at least, tho old way Is by no means the best " & ' a. 9vS) (Wj ri ?( nllu . ,4, 1. Napkin 2. Pork X Snlad fork A place at luncheon Sorvico explained Knlfo fc'oup npoon fl.

Here are the reasons "why men leave home," according to a Chicago statistician: III health and peevishness of the wife Slouchlness of the wife, either of her own person, In her housekeeping methods, or both. Wife's habit of nagging or gossiping. Dislike for children on wife's purt. The same statistician remarks that a woman who is naturally cheerful and physically fit Is seldom deserted. If she shows herself affectionate and home-loving and Is willing to add to the family Income either by working herself or by econo mizing, and if, above nil, she Is sympa thetic and considerate of her husband's comforts, she couldn't lose him.
