Cherry and apple trees, and lilac bushes arc in fel bloom. and flowering almond and japonica gay with blossom. Besides that, everywhere you look there is a host --not of daffodils -- but a host of golden dandelions. And they are as bright and cheery as anything one could wish to see. Little green and yellow canaries are back with us again, Singing their tuneful song.

Women Have More Fat In Their Heads L11114015. has intrigued men far - cctlt11'ie1, Even Charles Dickens offered a solution, i -ie theorised that as shaving tended to thicken the hair on the chin (a belief since scientifically disproved) Nature replied by .taking it away 1Y0111 the head.

Fine glass mar- bles are being made in Britain for the first time, using a secret mix- ture which blends the glass and pig- ments. Until 1914 tate world's manufac- turing centre was near Nuremberg, Germany, though the game came to England, not from Germany but from Route. It was introduced stere by Ro- man legionnaires, who used round, water -worn pebbles that could be easily bowled along the smooth - tiled courts of the villas they built in Britain. Demand for ntarbles is constantly increasing, for they are not only used by schoolboys. Daring the war skilled mechanics perfected the lit- tle glass balls to such a degree that they could be substituted for cer- tain steel bearings. Tons of glass marbles go to li- thographers and engravers to be used in smoothing the surface of copper printing plates, Special marbles are made for this purpose to withstand the wear and tear of being rolled back and fortis over the metal surfaces. Many are made for inclusion in tlte.gante called Chinese Checkers. which requires sixty marbles for each game, ten each of six differ- ent colours. In the oilfields of Texas and the Middle East millions of marbles are used as filters and condensers. Fish hatcheries use 1115111 on the bottom of breeding tanks, claiming better results during the spawning season. Upsidedown to Prevent Peeking Etiquette In The Good Old Days "li yuu :dr t drunk often, 3111'11 be disgraced " Such 11'1x0 111c 11t111) 3 given 11, young girls to the 111• ,(011th century. Standard tit ex peeled behaviour have trio:: ed amusingly dw'i11;3 the last fete hula fired years. One of the earlisl known books on etiquette 5311y published before the Norman Conquest, Its 11111hur named 1Iantic:unite, admonished; "Ciense not thy teethe, at mete with knyfe, stik, ti' waude, or driul, with food M thy utouthe. After mete. when thou shalt wasshc, spilt not in the basin." Good table manners untt:,1 have been the exception rather than the rule, for in the thirteenth century a gentleman called Robert de ,,lois recommended t 11 a t tablecloths should not be used for wiping the eyes or the nose. Mind Your longue Feminine characteristics welt, to have changed little since those days. 1t was unbecoming in a lacy, be said, to talk too much or to boast about the attentions paid to her by the opposite sex. In 1430 a boolc called, "How the Good Wife Taught her Daughter," rendered this advice for young girls: "In walking, don't toss ymtr head and wriggle about your shout- ders. Don't swear. In town don't gad about or get drunk on your clothes stoney. Talee no gifts; they're the ruin of roan; a Lrtle womall." Thirty years later it was the turn of young men to conte in for a little attention, when the Marshal of Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester, told then(, "Do not cough or spit or retch too loud. Do not lick a dish with your tongue." Bores, he added might be gnawed, but never thrown on the floor, That Etiquette • When are get to the nineteenth century we find complete prudish- ness and an elaborate code of be- haviour which it is social suicide to transgress. The women's magazines were full of helpful stints, "Peachblossont,' for instance, is advised not to at- tempt the climbing of stiles in a crinoline. If she suffers too much from the comments of vulgar little boys, con- tinues the editor, it would be better, in a high wind, to remain indoors. A paper for girls says: "It is not merely a breach of etiquette for a girl to take a country walk alone, it is absolutely unseemly and dan- gerous. There is always a chalice of meeting tramps or drunken men." A book of etiquette published in the first year of Queen Victoria's reign reflects most accurately the current artificiality of behaviour. Ladies are told exactly how to cut an undesirable acquaintance, and how to treat insinuating or ambigu- ous remarks, They must appear not even to hear thenal In Ogden, Utah, a ratan was asked to step up 011 a platform and draw the winning ticket in a $1,000 bond raffle.

Women Have More Fat In Their Heads L11114015. has intrigued men far - cctlt11'ie1, Even Charles Dickens offered a solution, i -ie theorised that as shaving tended to thicken the hair on the chin (a belief since scientifically disproved) Nature replied by .taking it away 1Y0111 the head. Science. hots ever, has sought something sounder than this he• lief, which still has some prevalence —1111' research , orkcr attacked the problem from the female side.

Though dermatologists may not be united in ,heir views otl 1110 cause of l'umll1Un baldness, they are agreed cat one point—that nothing can be done to repel it if Nature has decreed otherwise, • However, the inevitable may be pos1poucd by careful attention to the fundamental rules of hygiene, The hair roots depend for their life on the nutrition coming from the bloodstream, which depends its turn upon the body's general condi- tion, If that essential is absent, the life blood of the hair is affected.

Fine glass mar- bles are being made in Britain for the first time, using a secret mix- ture which blends the glass and pig- ments. Until 1914 tate world's manufac- turing centre was near Nuremberg, Germany, though the game came to England, not from Germany but from Route. It was introduced stere by Ro- man legionnaires, who used round, water -worn pebbles that could be easily bowled along the smooth - tiled courts of the villas they built in Britain. Demand for ntarbles is constantly increasing, for they are not only used by schoolboys. Daring the war skilled mechanics perfected the lit- tle glass balls to such a degree that they could be substituted for cer- tain steel bearings. Tons of glass marbles go to li- thographers and engravers to be used in smoothing the surface of copper printing plates, Special marbles are made for this purpose to withstand the wear and tear of being rolled back and fortis over the metal surfaces. Many are made for inclusion in tlte.gante called Chinese Checkers. which requires sixty marbles for each game, ten each of six differ- ent colours. In the oilfields of Texas and the Middle East millions of marbles are used as filters and condensers. Fish hatcheries use 1115111 on the bottom of breeding tanks, claiming better results during the spawning season. Upsidedown to Prevent Peeking Etiquette In The Good Old Days "li yuu :dr t drunk often, 3111'11 be disgraced " Such 11'1x0 111c 11t111) 3 given 11, young girls to the 111• ,(011th century. Standard tit ex peeled behaviour have trio:: ed amusingly dw'i11;3 the last fete hula fired years. One of the earlisl known books on etiquette 5311y published before the Norman Conquest, Its 11111hur named 1Iantic:unite, admonished; "Ciense not thy teethe, at mete with knyfe, stik, ti' waude, or driul, with food M thy utouthe. After mete. when thou shalt wasshc, spilt not in the basin." Good table manners untt:,1 have been the exception rather than the rule, for in the thirteenth century a gentleman called Robert de ,,lois recommended t 11 a t tablecloths should not be used for wiping the eyes or the nose. Mind Your longue Feminine characteristics welt, to have changed little since those days. 1t was unbecoming in a lacy, be said, to talk too much or to boast about the attentions paid to her by the opposite sex. In 1430 a boolc called, "How the Good Wife Taught her Daughter," rendered this advice for young girls: "In walking, don't toss ymtr head and wriggle about your shout- ders. Don't swear. In town don't gad about or get drunk on your clothes stoney. Talee no gifts; they're the ruin of roan; a Lrtle womall." Thirty years later it was the turn of young men to conte in for a little attention, when the Marshal of Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester, told then(, "Do not cough or spit or retch too loud. Do not lick a dish with your tongue." Bores, he added might be gnawed, but never thrown on the floor, That Etiquette • When are get to the nineteenth century we find complete prudish- ness and an elaborate code of be- haviour which it is social suicide to transgress. The women's magazines were full of helpful stints, "Peachblossont,' for instance, is advised not to at- tempt the climbing of stiles in a crinoline. If she suffers too much from the comments of vulgar little boys, con- tinues the editor, it would be better, in a high wind, to remain indoors. A paper for girls says: "It is not merely a breach of etiquette for a girl to take a country walk alone, it is absolutely unseemly and dan- gerous. There is always a chalice of meeting tramps or drunken men." A book of etiquette published in the first year of Queen Victoria's reign reflects most accurately the current artificiality of behaviour. Ladies are told exactly how to cut an undesirable acquaintance, and how to treat insinuating or ambigu- ous remarks, They must appear not even to hear thenal In Ogden, Utah, a ratan was asked to step up 011 a platform and draw the winning ticket in a $1,000 bond raffle.
