The Policy

Remember the policy we issue this policy on the same principle that life insurance is issued, only that you do not pay a cent for the policy of protection in our case. Be sure you get it it is important.

"and two (or four) ringside seat for the fight." The men of the entire country are expecting the attention to that little detail as a part cf the hotel service, and the hotels are accepting the obligation. Two hundred and fifty-two million people entered or left Xew York City on the steam railroads laest year. That brings an understanding of why It Is when we stop to ask a pedestrian for directions anywhere In the city, we always expect, and almost always get the reply, "I don't know. I'm a stranger here." It also may explain a lot of other things about our fair city, for which we are reproached by other sections of onr land.

A good prospect 1 held out for particularly well written drama to be produced by some of the new motion picture companies. Just recently organized. "The Gave Girl," a clever comedy by George Jflddleton and Guy Unlton, which marie hit In Xew York on the speaking stae n season r

two ago, has been purchased by the Inspiration lectures, one of the new , organizations, and will be produced with Teddy Gerard heading the cast. Among the 2700 applications received to date for the citizens' military training camp to be hold at Plattsburg this summer, is that of Dr. Louis I Seaman, of this city, 65 years old, a veteran of eight wars and an officer in all of them. It would almost seem to the casual thinker that Dr. Seaman might feel ho had done his share of the world's fighting, but not at ail. His letter of application sets forth his need for additional training in Infantry drill. In order to fit him for a maximum degree of service In the event of another national emergency. The Plattsburg rules set the age at 18 to 33. but an effort will be made to have special consideration given the case of Ir. Seaman, or Major Seaman, as he is known by the veterans of half a dozen armies. He served first in the Spanish-Amprl'-an war. then in the P.oer War. the Philllpino

Taking Cure of the Eyes

deli

Realizing wh&t extremely

rate organs onr eyes are, we should take good care of them, eren If they do not show ilgns of uttering. This care ! absolutely required not only to rurd against unnecessary straining of the ey8 and vo preserre our vision, but also our digestion, general health and comfort depend somewhat on the condition of the eyes. When children become fasny about taking their food and refuse without feasible reason one dish after another. It is werth your while to Investigate end to ascertain whether eye strain might not be the cause of It. Copying from a blackboard, Tr Inst ace, requires continuous changing from a long to a short focus, and Is therefore a great strain upon the eyes. Watch out for the child's posture when ha la writing or reading. A pn with a normal vision sVrold always be sitting upright, leaning allghuy backward wbn reading. The book should be held about 14 Inches from the eyes, and about level with the eyes. The light should strike the book over the reader's left shoulder. The closer the book Is held the greater Is the strain upon the eyea. Persona whose daily tasks require cloee work should not choose lor relaxation anything that depanda upoa the sight entirely. Playing golf or tennis, for example, will have a benevolent lnilaeaoe vpon the eyes.

Contrary to general opinion mrvlcg pfctures are not bad for your eyesight unless you sit too clo) to the screen. If your eyes feel tired or "burn," bathe them in a boraclc acid solution, using one teaspoonful of boraclc acid to a tumbler of hot water. Do not forget to splash tie eyes with cold water in the morning upon rising and evenings before retiring. Teeth and Cereal If your teeth are soft and decay easily, eat more cereal for break1 fast This Is not so Important for the adult as for the child. The coarse cereals such as whole wheat, oatmeal, bran and other grains rich la bone-making ement should be eaten freely by children to preserve and harden the teeth. To Reliere Irritation t the skin, mix thoroughly grammes powdered camphor, 60 grammes powdered starch and 15 grammes oxide of sine. To Keep Your Hair Tidy If you have little, scraggly hair growing on your neck that spoil your appearance when you ar dressed, try coaxing and t raising them to keep In place by brushing them several times a day with an eyebrow brush dipped la bandoline. To Keep a Poultice Hot greaae a piece of paper on on side and lay oa the poultice.

It never was possible to get men into tea rooms with anything except an amount of pressure that rather detracted from the spontaneity of the visit. And as for dropping In by themselves well, it simply "wasn't done by the average sort of man. For some reason "coffee house" Ktrikes him entirely different; whether because of It traditions dating back to a century or bo ago in Rn gland, or whether the aroma of coffee gives a mora masculine atmosphere than the fainter fragrance of tf.a, I am sure I don't know. But the Times Square section, which used to be the ceriter of the citv's gathering nbout the festive gin rickey in the old days, is now thickly sprinkled with coffee houses, and the coffee houses are much more than thickly sprinkled with patron at almost any hour of the day.

She Had Simple Tastes. A little girl, left in a room with a Class ef tall daffodils, was discovered trying to communicate with the queen of the fairies. She was calling down the bell of one flower and listening at the other, a small dimpled hand, with a crease for the wrist, firm grasping either green stalk. "Plea je send a cake and a big doll," she said, "to my house, and a new daddy and a taxi 60 s Z caa go and spend my pennies," "Gone to the Dogs." The ancient Remans called the ace in dice "canls," the Latin word fcr dog. To them three aces was to lose tbe pot m their gaming, whence caaie the saying "gone to the dogs' as a synonym for ruin or bad lurk. The expression "dirty dog1' means one morally lilthy; one defiled with mere ?k!a dirt la c-slled a "dirty pig."
