On the front bolsters of TnomhlM wagons
are heavy iron plates running along top clear and

through the bolster. Strength and lightness
are combined. Reqr gears are strongly

Solid trust bars extend the full length of the
axles giving them double strength.

Wise Advice for Those Contem
plating Matrimony.
The Dreamer Needs a Brown-Eyed
Mate; Practical Person Should
Choose Blue or Gray.
Who make better mates, persons
with brown eyes or persons with blue?
Although uo hard-aiul-fast rul • can
be laid down, those with brown eyes
are more steadfast and faithful. Nat¬
uralists say that dogs or horses with
deep brown eyes are gentler than those
with the grayish tint. This applies
equally to human beings.
Brown eyes mean gentleness. The
secret of married life is tolerance,
which is another word for gentleness.
It must not be imagined that men or
women with gray or blue eyes are nec¬
essarily intolerant. But, generally
speaking, character can be told from
eyes.
A man with wistful brown eyes prob¬
ably will he a dreamer. Suppose he
marries blue eyes—that indicate indi¬
vidualism and often egotism—after a
while blue eyes will tire of brown
eyes. Gentleness and dreaminess will i
be mistaken for weakness, and blue
or gray eyes usually despise weakness.
Without respect, love cannot last.
If, therefore, you are a dreamy per¬
son, look for a life companion, a mate,
In the man or woman who possesses
brown eyes. If you are a man, yon
will need comforting and “mothering.”
Psychologists say that all men with
the “mother-complex heart”—a heart |
that is gentle, and wants to “mother”
or protect somebody, and, therefore, to
be “mothered” in turn—are born with
brown eyes*. Brown-eyed people are
usually romantic and sentimental.
Blue-eyed people are more practical.
They usually laugh at sentiment call¬
ing it “sickly sentimentality.” Im¬
agine, therefore, a sensitive girl mar¬
ried to a man who considers her to be
weak and a “sentimentalist.” How is
love going to last in those circum¬
stances?
Curiously enough, like usually at¬
tracts unlike in early youth, as one
pole of a magnet draws the opposite
pole of another. Therefore, an ex
System of Checks and Balances
According to the Export Trade and
Exporters’ Review, this is the way
they cash a check in Greece:
The check is presented to the teller.
Indorsement is made in bis presence.
He makes out several copies of re¬
ceipts for the amount, which receive
payee’s signature. A bronze disk
bearing a number is then presented to
the payee, who waits bis turn. The
writing on the check is now compared
with the filed signature. If the check
Is on another bank this bank is called
by telephone or a messenger sent and
rhe check verified. The check next
goes to the bookkeeper, where the de¬
positor’s balance is brought forward
and records made. An auditor is
called and checks all proceedings as
they are made. The customer’s num¬
ber is then called and the customer
presents his disc, Identifies the check,
verifies his signature on the receipts,
ami receives the cash.
They fear the Greeks bearing
cheeks.—Commerce and Finance.
Protest Against Burial at Sea.
The population of Saigon was great¬
ly stirred some time ago on learning
that the body of a young English
woman who died aboard a steamer of
the Messageries Maritimes was con
signed to the sea despite the protests
entreaties and proffered compensation
of her husband, who sought to have
the body retained until the first port
was reached. A petition was ad¬
dressed to the governor of Cochin
China, setting forth that burial at sea
is a practice which originated in the
period of sailing vessels when ship:
might remain becalmed for days, hut
that it Is no longer justified now that
voyages are much shorter and ocean
travel has reached as great impor¬
tance as traveling on land.

IRONIES OF LIFE

“and the next day his store was
closed by the sheriff.”

and the way ho could make them eat
out of his hand, half an hour after
bt ing formally introduced to them, was
a sight worth going miles to see. He
always had imtnense crowds at his ex¬
hibitions, and it: seemed that his future
was assured. But one day he was
loafiing around a livery stable, just
because be liked the atmosphere of
the place, and an old, weary hack
horse reached out a long, crooked limb,
handed him one with it, and broke bis
leg.
“He had to go to a hospital for a
while, and when he came out, his oc¬
cupation was gone. He was as good a
horse breaker as ever, but people
wouldn’t pay their hard-earned money
to see the exploits of a conquering
hero who had been manhandled by nn
old back horse. You must admit that
there was some sardonic intelligence
back of such a joke as that. If the
man had been hooked by a cow, or run
over by a traction engine, or chewed
up by an honest watchdog, it wouldn’t
have hurt his renown and prestige.
But, no! A blamed old relic of a horse
had to put him out of business.
“A long time ago, a very important
case was tried in an Irish court. The
people were greatly wrought up over
it, and the courtroom was crowded.
When it was announced that the jury
was ready with a verdict, the judge
addressed the audience, saying he
knew there was much feeling over the
case, but the hall of justice was no
place for a display of it, and if there
was a least sign of disturbance when
the verdict was made known, the guil¬
ty parties would be arrested,
“The jury brought in its verdict, and
the people heard it in silence, but just
then a whole doggone gallery, with
about a thousand people in It, came
crashing down, and the noise could
have been hefird forty miles out at sea.
After the judge’s solemn warning
against a disturbance, the fall of that
gallery has always seemed to me like
a painful joke.
“A long time ago, I was called upon
to address a crowd of voters on the
living issues of the day, and I framed
up a speech that would have been a
credit to any orator. I swiped it from
Roscoe Conlding, and I have always
insisted that be was one of the great¬
est of American speakers. The house
was full of refined and cultured peo¬
ple, and I was determined to make the
hit of my life. I was just getting
warmed .up to my work, when the
lights went out, and the hall was
plunged in black darkness. There’s
nothing makes a man feel more idiotic
than to have the lights shut off at
su h a time. The women in the audi¬
ence were giggling, and the men haw
ha > ing. It seemed funny to everybody
but me.
“I thought I knew where the little
table was, that held the pitcher of iee
water, and I moved toward it, and
fell over a chair, and flattened my
nose against the edge of a piece of
scenery. When the lights were
flashed on again, as suddenly ns they
went out, the audience beh(*d the
silver tongued orator on his bands and
knees, climbing slowly to his feet, and
trying to mold his nose into its origi¬
nal shape.
“I never saw such a delirious crowd
in my life. Some of the women
laughed themselves into hysterics, and
the fool men weren’t much better.
They never heard the balance of that
oration, and the last part was the
best.”
Alliteration.
Alliteration occurs sometimes in the
writings of the ancients, but not, it is
supposed, designedly, as they regard¬
ed all echoing of sound as a rhetorical
blemish. Cicero, in the “Offices,” hds
this phrase: “Sensim sine sensu aetas
senescitand Yirgil in the “Ae
nekl,” has many marked alliterations.

Try, Try Again.
“Lottarox was telling me that he
has been trying for six months with
qut success to get a passage to see the
battlefields of France.”
“Evidently the wind has changed.
He spent two years trying not to see
them, with success.”—The American
