Grace Margaret Gould, fashion ed itor of the Woman's Home Compan ion, writes a wonderfully sensible and practical and yet highly entertaining article entitled Imitation Versus In dividuality. She makes the point that individuality is really what counts in dress and in charm. It is being your self at your best, not striving to copy what is best someone quite different. She says in part: Every blessed one of us always to look exactly as we never can look, so we imitate some other woman, and invariably she is our direct opposite “There is the fat woman, for in stance. who is always yearning to lie a slyph if she only wears the same sort of clothes that her sylphlike wear. The trouble is that, no matter how hard she tries or what agonies she endures. she is never able to make anything out of herself but a fat sylph. And the irony of this is too cruel to dwell upon! "Then there is the lean woman, whose arms resemble broom handles and whose scrawny neck is never fit to tie seen. She feels that in a big measure it is the dress that makes her plump friend across the wav look so attractive and seem so cheery, so she decides to copy the dress, with the expectation of gaining her neigh bor's charm. “The dumpy woman, too, has an idea that she can look taller ami real ly have a commanding air of style If site chii only follow the dress example of hdl' tall, stately, stylish sister. “It is the same way with the dowdy woman, the elumy woman, the home ly won an, the long-throat giraffe looking woman—they all reason alike. "Each one forgets that while she may cofy a dress, she cannot copy the personality .that gives that dress its fit and grace and style. She does not stop to reason out that to imitate is to be intellectually lazy. It is letting that stylish woman she so envies and admires do her thinking for her and the result of that is disastrous. ’ The selfsame stylish woman is not think ing for her. but for herself.” SHE KNEW.

Public Mind Carolina Cattle Cannot Come to Richmond County. Atlanta, Ga.. Sept. 8, 1914. To The Herald: Our attention has been called to movements of cattle from the quaran- ( lined area of South Carolir i into Rich mond county, Georgia. From the fact that the county offi cials, farmers and in co operation with the state of Georgia and the United States Department of Agri culture are spending large sums of mon ey to free the farms of Richmond coun ty of the cattle-fever tick, it is eticumb ment upon the government to protect the citizens of Richmond county from reinfestation of cattle-ticks from other i states. Therefore, any person moving cattle from Aiken county, .South Carolina into Richmond county, Georgia, without com plying with tiie federal regulations, which require inspection, disinfection and certification, are laying themselves liable to prosecution in the federal courts. Officials in charge of the work in Richmond county. Georgia have been di rected to thoroughly investigate all ir regular movements and report the facts, in order that steps may be taken to pro- j tect Richmond county territory. Very respectfully, E.

To The Herald: I noticed in tins column of your pa per ;in article signed "Worried” who wants a bug exterminator. Bee Brand Insect Powder is never known to have failed. ONE WHO KNOWS. To The Herald: While your editor was asleep (we hope) yesterday, someone slipped into your Speaking the Public Mind column a little note that had some thing of the effect of a dynamite cap sule on the-unsuspecting public. lam sure that 1 voice the wishes of a num ber of people in requesting you to be more careful. It comes with some thing of a shock, when reading quietly by your fireside, you are suddenly confronted with the bland question: How, O, How, to exterminate Bed bugs! I must protest that this is not *>ne of the things we ask each other. Brrrrr—. See if you can’t discover a method of exterminating them in the columns of The Herald: PAINED PUBLIC. ;To The Herald: j In reply to a question asked in your ! paper yesterday by someone signing j themselmes “Worried,” wanting to I know a way to exterminate a certain | nocturnal insect which I refrain from j mentioning by name; though they ; didn’t, I should like to offer a few sug i gestions. j A very effective way is to shoot j them. First drink about three pints j of whiskey (gin will do if ttie other is unavailable) turn out the light and J go to bed, with a loaded pistol clench- I ed tightly in the right hand. When j the loathsome ones comes out (which they ought to do in about 72 seconds) leap up, turn on the light and fire lapidly at the hastily retreating form* until your cartridges are exhausted, or as long as an enemy is in sight. Then start over again at the begin ning, omitting tiie whiskey, and re peat the operation until the whole race of obnoxious guests is extinct. Another way is to swallow about eight ounces of Arsenic in liquid form, and then lie in wait for. the little darlings. One bite of you then will put an end to them one at a time. Elephants have also been trained very cunningly to catch them alive. If you can afford to buy an elephant which is really proficient in the art, he will soon rid your house of their presence. Or, if it happens to be a female elephant, she will soon do it. You can also set steel traps for the smaller ones, if other means fail. Simple-minded people can he used for bait. (Signed) HELPER.

To The Herald- I want to tell you about a happy home here in this city, where most of what we see and hear is about some body’s unhappiness in home or life in general. 1 met my wife when she was IS years old; fell in love with her on the spot. We were married when she was 18 years old. Now. after many years of married life, I love her more than ever. These years have proved her true worth in eyery re si ect. I get up at 4:50 o'clock in the morning and make coffee, fry meat and eggs for breakfast. By this time my wife is up, dressed, hair combed, collar on, ready to receive the Presi dent of the United States or anybody else. She comes in and puts the cream and butter on the table, slices the bread, and in a sweet, cherry tone an- Something Hot To Reach the Spot Maxwell House Blend Coffee (f\ CUP / quality Always Pleases Always Pure Ark your grocor for it.

She accents the pronoun and smiles, because she knows that I am rather proud of the fact that I am a help to her in preparing the early morning meal. She reads a verse from the Bible, while the senior partner returns thanks. Then we set to our tasks. At evening I am met with a smile and a fond kiss. And there is the savory odor of a delightful dinner my loving wife has ready for me. After it is thoroughly enjoyed then what? Why, The Herald, of course! It is clean, dependable, honest, full of all the news and literary matter with the .Sandman Story, which the children enjoy. Happy homes? I should smile a “Yes" that is a mile long. The other kind of homes are the excep tions. and l pity those who are in them. We live on a 4-room cottage, have fine neighbors and a nice little church. We could not get along with out the church and the many good people in It. You unhappy people, rub out the past and start all over. Get i nthe game of living right, and it will be a joy throughout life to you and to all associated with you. R. G. S. ARE WIVES DRONES IN THE HIVE? To The Herald: There is a feeling of unrest among (be women of the Fnited States to day that be quieted or the con sequences will be direful. This warn ing' may be met with sneers and scoffing but time alone will tell. The average American man today is a slave to his wife. What duties does the wife accept? According to statistics, not one in ten families have more than one child. Thousands have' none. The husband, and let us bear in mind that we are speaking of the average American, works in his office, factory or wher -1 ever he may be employed from at least six to eight hours a day. She perhaps cooks two meals, dusts, 'sweeps and washes the dishes. Few average American women today do washing and no self respecting hus band would have them. But compare their day’s routine with that of the husband. Is there any worry? If any what ? Do any keep an account l of their time during the day? If they i so desire to walk out for an afte’’- I noon, is there anyone to complain? II I they wish to sleep and feel weary, is there any one to say nay? How i about the husband? Is his time his | own? Are not the worries and care ! ol’ business or his work so great as to make the duties of the housewife I seem small in comparison? Rminent foreign writers have said I that the American man is a slave and point to conditions in their own coun tries. We hear people often complain that young men are not marrying today. The reason is easy. Young men of the right kind in (he United States today are afraid to marry unless they have an established income of large proportions. American women today must begin to use the rood sense which they possess. All sober minded men will admit, if given the proper opportun ity. that it would he well for the lovelier sex to stop look and listen. ON LOOKER. Endorses Vegetable Depot. To The Herald: 1 shall welcome the return of a place where 1 can go each morning to pur chase whatever I choose to eat. In the old days every one went to market. There could be found every conceivable vegetable, plenty of the choicest cuts of meat, etc., and it was a real pleasure to be able to do one's own shopping. lam not sure bow the vegetable depot or market house plan will take with some of the recent generation, but I do know that we old-timers will welcome its re turn Of course, it may he practicable to sell only country produce, vegetables, etc., there, but we can get along very well as we have been doing for years. Ihat is buying our meat from the butch er and the staple groceries from the grocer. But,we do want a place where we can get fresh vegetables each morn ing without running all over town or phoning around everywhere to get them, i Vnd then, too, we are annoyed all day i long bv hucksters and venders of fruits ! and vegetables and chickens and eggs when we have plenty of such nrtiries.
