All rigrhts of republication of ipeclal dispatches herein are also reserved. Good Physical Health Saner living shows itself in reduced mortality in the United States, says a report of the Association of Life Insurance Presidents. Tha year 1921 was the healthiest one of their existence. Health education, carried on for many years in schools and by publicists, seemingly is beginning to bear fruit. Better health for all of U3 contributes to the national wealth and makes happy our homes. "The reduced mortality experienced indicates a people well fitted physically to cope with the new problems of 1922, while the other group of figures demonstrates a continuity of thrift and stability or purpose under trying conditions," comments the report. The insurance death rate was lowered from 9.58 per 1,000 in 1920 to 8.24 per 1,000 in 1921, a saving of one and one-third lives per 1,000. This indicates a probable saving of about 153,000 lives in 1921 over 1920. The Hoosier Health Record, which is pub

lished by the Indiana Tuberculosis association, publishes figures to show that' the death rate from tuberculosis for 1920 reached the unprecedented low level of 114 per 100,000 population. In its analysis of the cause for the decline of the death rate from tuberculosis, the Record says: . (1) The elimination of carriers and infectious sputum may well be placed at the head of such a list of cases. (2) Better administrative control may also be listed as a possible cause. (3) The educational campaign for the last 15 years may have helped. (4) There has been a general improvement in public health due to increased knowledge of matters pertaining to sanitation, diet, personal Hygiene, etc. (5) High wages and better conditions of living. (6) The influenza epidemic of three years ago may have removed many persons who otherwise would have broken down from tuberculosis. The foregoing citations from associations who are vitally interested in the good health of the population of the United States show that all of us are beginning to look at the question of health from an intelligent standpoint. We are beginning to keep our bodies in trim, to avoid excesses, to shun infection, to live sanely, and to make the materialy body a fit agency to execute the ambitions and desires of our minds.

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can," "Take It," "Up" you H.B. As the Old Year crept silently out of the back way of my life, I told it Goodbye. And then I turned to the New Year that cam in by the front way and shook hands with it and told it how glad I was to tee so ruddy and happy a young fellow. Then to the great God I said this prayer: Please make me a better Human Being this year! If we aren't good Human Beings we can never hope to be good citizens or good workers or good friends. The greatest art in the world is to prove yourself a good Human Being. And it's the simplest, too. Just be yourself with, all your heart. That's all. But use your heart a great deal. I have noticed that those who are the worst in the affairs of every day are those who are not good Human Beings. . Think what a world this would be if each of us, on awaking in the morning, would repeat this brief prayer to the Father of all: Please make me a good Human Being today. Good Human Beings are so simple and sincere, to true blue, so anxious to help and to serve. And they are so full of tender thoughtfulness toward everyone seeming always to keep brightly burning an open fire-place, warming all who come near with their love. It is sad to see high talents wasted on the highways, but it is sadder to see great hearts chilled by wonderful intellects. For after all we are every one of us seeking after heart companionship that which alone is able to nourish our Human Being souls. Walk with me in my heart, O friend, I can show yon so many interesting and beautiful places. I can lead you to where natural springs are trinkling their cool waters, ready for your thirst. I can point you to where flowers are brilliant in color and sweet in perfume. I can even tell you a little about how God thinks. You Human Being! You mean so much to me. I would try so hard to make you happier. But the only way for us all to grow more and more human and full of understanding is to study and emulate every human ideal wherever we find it. And then pass it along.

No. 66-The Mystic Matches A pair of paper matches are shown to bnve printing on one side, but to be blank on r4i other. They are held by the ends between the left thumb and forefinger. The right thumb and forefinger take the matches at the center and turn them over, but the printing is still uppermost, no matter how often they are turned. The secret is a half twist made by drawing back t4ie thumb a trifle. Thus every time the matches are turned over they make a complete twist, which leaves the eame side on top.

He studied law, was admitted to the bar, and while yet in his early twenties hung out his professional shingle in Morgantown, W. Va. But he could not be satisfied with the colorless practice of a small town attorney, and soon decided to go west and grow up with Oklahoma. In 1906 he removed to Ardmore, Okla. I'ere he remained 11 years, practicing law and getting in on the ground floor of the oil business. In 1917, prosperous and successful, he removed to Oklahoma City. 0 When a special election was held in 1919 to fill an unexpired congress term he managed somehow to upset a Democratic majority of 5,000. So in the following year the Republicans turned naturally to him when they were picking a senatorial candidate.

That their choice fell upon the right man is evidenced by the votes he received.

RAVEN TRESSES I had all kinds of glossy ringlets, until five years ago; they might have been admired by kinglets, so richly did they glow. Think not it vain if one confesses to glories passed away! And I was proud of inose dark tresses without a thread of gray. Oh, others had patrician faces, and some had princely frames, and some had all the airs and graces that captivate the dames. But I had hair so dark and waving, had such a splendid stand, it used to set the painters raving, and bards declared it grand. But now such hair no more I harbor, it shriveled and it shrunk, it wilted when the village barber applied his tonic punk. He said to me, "Your hair is falling, it's losing gloss and shine; your scalp's
