JAP GAMES HAVE PURPOSE

Children'* PartlmM In That Gauntry Ar* Played With' the Idea of Strengthening Character. For centuries before America was discovered, Japanese children were playing games upon which our boys and girls considered they have a monopoly, and which are regarded as strictly modern. As a matter of fact, most of our pastimes and games have come to us from foreign lands, though they. have been modified to suit our needs, and perhaps renamed. “Pussy wants a corner” and “blindman’s buff” are as old as Japan Itself. Aa played across seas, however, these games are far’superior to ours. Puss, for Instance, Is represented aft an "Onl,” or devil, the corners of the room the four safe harbors of truth with certain shelter from all harm. In “blind-man’s butt," the children wear queer little costumes made of blue and white cotton crepe,, with painted eyes and queer stuffed beaks resembling birds’, for noses. They look like weird little gnomes rathei* than children, as they dash about In a frantic endeavor to catch their victims, tA ghostly* game particularly en»joyed by heroic boys requires the same costumes. Some of them plant flags In different parts of the ceifaetery during the day, under a lonely tree or by a hill, alleged to be haunted. At night they meet for their game of “soul examination,” telling stories about ghosts, goblins and onl. At the conclusion of each tale when their imaginations are so wrought up that they are In terror, they go up the hill one at a time and bring back the flags planted there, until all are brought in. Thus do they discourage fear and foster courage, the trait of character that they most covet ' *

TO ALLAY PAIN OF STINGS

Use of Aipmonia to Be Avoided in the Case of an Attack by an • Irate Wasp, e Ammonia promptly applied when a bee stings you prevents serious con-sequences-and allays pain. It has gen- * erally been supposed that this was true also of wasp stings but Edward R. Speyer, an Oxford university spe- ' clalist, points out tn a letter to the London Times that the application of ammonia or any other alkali to 'a • wasp sting makes It worse. । The reason Is that the poison of a bee’s sting is acid; that of a wasp’s sting is alkaline. * Hence alkalles, like ammonia, neutralize the. acid of the bee’s sting, but aggravate the toxic effects of the wasp’s alkaline sting. । The best thing to apply to a wasp’# sting is vinegar, being the nearest acid in domestic service. Onion juice, lemon juice, or any other handy acid will do as well. j The Lancet says these facts ought to be widely known, “for not uncommonly the sting proves to be not a simple puncture but the beginning of a toxic process sometimes fatal. A wasp sting on the moist mucosa, as In the mouth, invariably leads to serious inflammation, with most distress- . Ing results. If the simple gargling or washing of the attacked spot with an < . add fluid In such a case keeps down the swelling Ilves may well be saved.”

Whale’s Breathing Apparatus.

An eminent naturalist says concerning the breathing apparatus of the whaler “The windpipe does not communlcate with the mouth; a hole is, as it were, bored right through the back of the head. Engineers ( would»do well to copy the action of the valve of the whale’s blow-hole; a more perfect piece of structure it Is Impossible to imagine. Day and night, asleep or awake, the whale works its breathing apparatus in such a manner that not a drop of water ever gets down Into the lungs. Again, the whale must of necessity stay a much longer period under water than seals; this alone might possibly drown it, inasmuch as the lungs can not have access to fresh air. We find that this difficulty has been anticipated and obviated by a peculiar reservoir in the venous system, which reservoir is situated at the back of the lungs.”

The Eternal Feminine.

The waltz may be ascribed to the reaction following a long and harassing war, and offers * spectacle of very scanty feminine attire. A story In a newspaper-dated June 8, 1812, relates: “A young > lady of rank and , high condltibp, inthswarmth of her dancing heart, thus addressed her partner at the late lord mayor’s ban : •God bless yon! take care you don’t tread upon my muslin gown, for you 'seo that I have nothing under it.’ ” Lady Browhlow describing feminine dress a few years earlier, says: "It consisted of a gown tres-decollete, and short walsted, with apparently ’only one garment under it . • .a shawl hung over the shoulders.” By substituting fur stole or tulle scarf for “shawl" the description would do for ' the modes of 1919.

Ohio, the Mother of Presidents, presents another distinguished son for the consideration of Republican voters in the person of Senator Warren G. Harding. .Hie life has been one of strenuous toil and endeavor since the da<y he was apprenticed a printer. Early manhood found him a valiant editor and, like the beloved McKinley, a vigorous defender of the political principles of Abraham Lincoln. Editor Harding’s virile Republicansim gained him fame beyond the confines of the Buckeye state as far back aft 1896, since which time he has belonged not more to the Republican party of Ohio tljan to the Republican party of America. it Senator Harding is now serving his first term in the United States senate, having been elected in 1914 ‘by the re-united Republican and y Progressive parties, his majority being more than one hundred thousand, i Harding As a Business Man

One of the leading business men of the nation says this of Senator Harding: - “Warrell G. Harding Is essentially a business man. He has the business instinct. Beginning with nothing, and building up a big business of his own, and then taking extensive interests in all of the other big enterprises of the city in which he lives, has put

In many respects Mr. Harding resembles that other favorite son of Ohio—William McKinley. Both were of Scottish descent. In presence, in manner of speech, in ability to judge of men, in careful, painstaking mastery of detail and tact in bringing together opposing factions on some

1 Opposes Compulsory Military In a speech at Columbus, Ohio, February 23rd, Senator Harding said: “We might well pledge ourselves never again to be so unmindful of our national defense. We ought to have an ample navy, as our first line of defense. We ought to more than keep apace—we ought io lead the world in the development of aviation and be stronger in the air than we are on the sea. We ought to have a stronger .army than we have ever known in peace heretofore, and we ought to have all the young manhood of the republic know : the benefits of discipline and physical betterment that come of military training, but it ought to be VOLUNTARY, not compulsory; supported by the government in camp, in the national guard, in schools and colleges. It ought to be made so popular and so helpful that young America would seek it as a privilege rather than accept it as a duty of compulsory requirement." “Get Back to Normal” —Advertisement

him in close touch with the problems of production, transportation and distribution of both manufactured articles and foodstuffs; and it has brought him in closp touch with the problems of capital and labor. “Now, as never before, this country needs a president who has had practical business experience 4 and who can bring us back to safe and sane thinking and safe and sane living.”

common ground, there is a ''remarkable similarity. Mr. Harding is first of all a patriot. He believes in America; in its form of government; is proud of her past ahd hopeful for her future; and he believes that our highest obligation is to our own, and that the problems which vitally concern us are domesb ic and not foreign.
