Men haven’t as much sense as women. If they had they would save their combings for the day when they will need a toupee. We like to brag about our great Amenican sense of humor. But you can’t get a bill collector to believe that there is any such animal. Strange are the ways of nature. A caterpiller sheds its legs and begins wearing wings. And a girl sheds her legs and begins wearing limbs. If the penalty for bigamy compelled a man to live with both wives for the rest of his fife, there wouldn’t 'be any such animal as bigamy any more.

EDUCATED YOUTH HAS THE ADVANTAGE.
The value of staying at school is qf-ah'd in dollars and cents iitn figures recently compiled by the bureau of education ' and distributed to boys and girls throughout the country by .the children’s bureau. From a study of a large number of actual cases St has been found I that at 25 years of age the boy who 1 remained in school until he was 18 had received $2,000 more salary (than the boy who left school at 14, and that the better educated ! youth was then receiving more than S9OO a year more in pay. “This is equivalent to an investment of SIB,OOO at 5 per cent,” the Statement said. “Can a boy increase capital as fast in any other way? ' “From this time on the salary of the Miter educated boy will rise still more rapidly, while the earnings of the boy who left school at 14 will increase but little.” Whale wages have increased with the war, the proportions shown in a table of weekly earnings still hold true, the statement said. The boy who left school at 14 at the time the investigation was made received an average of $4 a week, his wages increasing each year to $7 a week at 18. The boy who remained in school until he was 18 began work at $lO a week. Ait 20 the salaries were $9.50 a week for the boy who left school early and sls for his better trained competitor. At 25 they were earning $12.75 and s3l respectively, and total wages up to thait time had been $5,112.50 and $7,337.50, so that the boy who remained in school had earned nearly 50 per cent more in eight years than the other had in 12 yeans. “Children should stay in school as long as possible because education

Behave yourself- Always remember that if you are accused of doing anything wrong your friends will first make up their minds that you are guilty and then they will listen to the evidence. Men are just as queer as women. If a man had to go fishing for a living he would never get through bewailing the hardships of fishing and hollering because he can’t stay at home and loaf around the house. Your wife can dress that yyay and get away with it. Bqt if you ever came home wearing a green hat, an orange coat, red pants, a purple shirt and blue shoes she would call the wagon and see that you got a free ride. „ - Mother will work sixteen hours a day doing mending and housework and rearing eight dr ten children. But that doesn’t prevent father from imagining he is “supporting” his wife and children.
means better jobs,” the children s bureau urges. “Boys and girls who go to work at the end of grammar aehoefl rarely gelt good jobs. The work they find to tk> is usually unskilled; it offers little training or ■chance for advancement. When, they are older they find they are still untrained for the skilled work that offers a future. Education means higher wages. “Many boys and girls when they leave school find work that offers a high wage for a beginner. But these wages seldom grow because the work re qua res no training. “A position with a future and steadily increasing wages requires school training. “Does it pay to continue your studies? Education means a successful and useful life; it pays the individual. Education means efficient workers; it pays the nation. Show this to your parents and ask them what they think about it. Stay dn school.”
If some of the women could see how dirty their gauze undervests were they wouldn’t *be so careless about leaving their kimonos unfastened at the -top. When a man sees a woman who is wearing too many diamonds and too much complexion, he gets the idea that one is about as genuine as the other. A man can have only one suit to his name. But that doesn’t prevent him from discovering that he has 'left his money in his other suit when it is his turn to treat. What has become of the oldfashioned boy who had to take a ‘walk down town every Saturday afternoon so his sister could take a bath in a wash tub in the kitchen?

Some homes are so happy that if you give a man his choice between taking a gallon of castor oil, or spending an evening at home, he would grab for the castor oil.
