Whirl
If everyone kept every New Year's
resolution made in the bright hopeful
hours of the young year -what a
wonderful world this would be!
Yet there are always a few re%olu- •
tipns we do keep, . And women who
realize the importance of retaining
their youth, .and gaining more beauty
with each year should count among
their resolutions the vow to follow.
the, lawsofbeauty tally throughout
the entire year. .
Beauty lies more in clear, well -
eared -for skins, well -brushed hair,
clean sparkling- teetb, and all evi-
dences of health, cleanliness and in-
telligence than lji mere , doll -like
prettinese.
Beauty can be acquired. Not per-
haps the Mind of beauty that will add
your name to the list of immortal
beauties; but certainly the hind of
beauty that will improve your own
looks many tinges. No woman today
cares to be placed in the.. category of
beautiful but dumb; neither mon nor
Women, 'tolerate in their society a
dumb or stupid person. The old days
when mere doll -like prettiness was
an advantage have passed. We must
'have some cleverness, some mental
advantages to go along with our
appearance.
However, she who hath both
beauty and brains` has a definite ad-
vantage over the girt who cultivates
either asset at the expense of the
other. This is why we find the high-
school graduate, the college woman,
the progressive, wife and mother giv-
ing a certain amount of time each
day to the duty of improving their
looks.
These are the girls and woinen
who know the value of keeping their
`beauty resolutions. It must be an.
everyday practice to build up more
oeauty: If you set a few rules for
Yourself to begin w.th, and make
them an automatic part of every
day's duties, you will soon see
enough results to them, and adhere
to them, as wall.
Age Doesn't Count
1 want you to make some bointy
resolutions this bright New Year. I
don't care how oli ;son are or how
Ming YOU are; !f you begin right
now to form a .+i";!'1 beauty habit,
and adhere to it, t'rr'wghout all this
year, I prorrr180 you, tele time next
year your will admit that you have
been repaid tor your attention.
Let me see. In France they begin
with their girl babies, keeping their
little bodies supple and sound. When
they grow into little girlhood they
are taught small duties, such as sit-
ting erect in their chairs, learning to
place their feet correctly in walking,
and so on. In Canada, all too fre-
quently, girls are not taught these
things till they begin to teach them-
selves, Often Canadian women feel
selfxonscious about paying attention
to their looks, as though it were a
shameful thing to be careful of the
bodies that were given to them by
tho same Divine Law that makes
flowers beautiful. Wo owe much
,LnorQ to or personal beauty than we
Jo to i1i Witty of our flow'dr gar-
dens, but as a matter of progress we
should not neglect either of them.
I want to • give you a little New
Year's present, I want to give you a
list of beauty resolutions that I have
made out for you—all simple things
that will not take much time.

Winter Carnes to the
Southwest
Shorter grows the days,
While the peach trees flame,
And persimmons burn behind their
thinning leaves,
Grapevines smolder darkly, copper
and maroon,
The air is fruity, with a mellow
haze;'
Pomegranates open scarlet ]hearts
In a kind of golden light,
Flowing slowly, thickly,
ground,
The hills end valleys float
Within an amber.- glaze
And a sweet and tangent
around;
And then a'restless tension takes the
air,
The dry soil quickens, and late
in the night,
The first rain falls,
And in the morning there is wind
Leaves seek the earth, and every-
where
The trees stand bare,
Etched clear against a slcy
ing blue;
Yet up and Clown each
through
The sidewalk, on the garden path,
Everywhere the gallant breeze can
pass,
New grass
Is bursting in deep emerald veins ,
Young violets break in purple with
the dawn,
And freesias lift pale faces to the
sun;
Lasting Rewards
The following resolutions are the
first and simplest of Beauty Rules. I
know many women wbo follow them
—and they are always the women
who command attention for their
charming looks. One of these women
is about seventy, and I assure Toth
she looks younger than many a
woman young enough to be her dau-
ghter. "I tient do much, my dear,"
she says simply when I tell her how
wonderful she is; "I just keep clean
inside and outside, think as nice
thoughts as I van about my fellow
men, do a good deed here and there,
and add a little ' powder and the
slightest tinge of rouge to my cheeks
for good measure," Then she 'smiles
at your with her wonderful smile, and
you see the lovely dimple in the faint
, pink of her cheeks, and decide you
will certainly "keep your beauty
resolutions all the rest of your life."
Resolved: To eat my meals regu-
larly, and to select the most whole-
some and nutritious foods. To eat
slowly,'ajid as sparingly as my health
and strength permit.
Resolved: To get out-of-doors for a
walk every day, even if for only ten
Minutes. To walk briskly, breathe
deeply and stand correctly while I
am taking this exercise.
Resolved: To take a quick' but
,tiferough bath every day I can.
Resolved: To go to my dentist
once a year to -have my teetb exam-
ined.
Resolved: To get enough hours'
sleep every night, in a well -ventil-
ated room.
Resolved: To watch my temper,
guard my tongue- and govern my
nerves.
Resolved:• -To brush my hair care-
fully each day. To shampoo it at
regular intervals of days or weeks,
according to its needs.
Resolved: To brush my teeth every
night and morning, and at midday if
I can conveniently do so.
Resolved: To care for my finger-
nails.
Resolved: TO cultivate the fine-
ness and health of my .complexion.
To spend .at least ten niinutos every
night in removing the soil of the day
with a good cleansing cream.

Words in German Often
Made Up flake Dominoes
A Frenchman calling attention .to
the fact that in some languages words
are glade up as in a game of 'dominoes
ty adding new- pieces proceeded to
have fun in the following bray in
showing how it was done in German,
says "The Pathfinder."
A kangaroo in German is "beutc'-
ratteu," meaning a rat with a bag. A
cage is a "kotter," so a kangaroo cage
is a "beutelrattenkotter." Grating of
a cage is, called "latten" and the roof
"getter," hence a kangaroo cage with
a roof and grating would be "beutel-
rattenlattengitterkotter." Going a step
further, bad weather in German is
"unwetter." So a kangaroo cage with
a roof of grating to protect it from
bad weather would consequently be
"beutelrattenlattengitteru n w e t t e r-
kotter."
Another example:
.A Hottentot mother in Gzrntan is
"Hottentottemnutter." Children who
stammer are called "straetertrottel,"
so a Hottentot mother of such children
would be "Hottentottenstraetertrottel-
mutter. To add a little, an assassin is
an "attentates." Accordingly, the' as-
sassin n: the mother just described
would be "Hottentottenstraetertrottel-
mutterattentater."
Huge fields are white with cotton,
green
With bgh•IeY, alfalfa scents the air for
miles
And miles, and there are eager ]leads
Of crispy lettuce growing in between
The budded walnut trees—
And each and every one of these
Seems to declare:
Winter comes—in this, the far South-
west,
And beauty hums and loveliness is
blest,
And growth is everywhere!

Earth's Core Composed
Of Iron and Nickel
The core of the earth is composed
of iron, Dr, Leeson H. Adams, phys-
ical chemist of the Geophysical Lab-
oratory, Carnegie Institution, of
Washington, says in a research nar-
rative issued by the Engineering
Foundation.
"Neglecting the relatively thin film
of Sedimentary rocks at the surface,"
aecerding to Dr. Adams, "there is a
first lay er of granite ten miles thick;
below that a layer a basaltic rocks
twenty miles thick; then 2,000 miles
of peridotite, a reek VW; at the sur-
face, consisting of iron magnesium
silicate, and finally a central core
4,000 miles in diameter of metallic
iron with a little nickel.
"Perhaps the most striking feature
of the composition of the whole earth
is that our globe is glade up almost
entirely of four elements: iron, mag-
nesium, silicon and oxygen; the re-
maining eighty-eight possible elements
are confined to the thin film called the
crust."
—Peter A. Lea.—in "The Christian
Science Monitor."
Artificial Sunlight May
Soon Be produced
Measurement of sunshine may soon
enable scientists to produce artificial
sunlight for the treatment of diseases
and the promotion of growth which
can be regulated in intensity to comes
pond to natural sunlight at different
times and seasons, according to a re-
search narrative prepared for the En-
gineering Foundation by Arthur C.
Downes, of the research staff of the
National Carbon Company of Cleve-
land.
Physicians in charge of sanatoria
in which sunlight is used for its bene-
ficial effects have measured the
strength of natural sunlight in sum-
mer, . winter and fall. They believe
that "noon winter sunshine" is the
best standard for the measurement of
healing or "clinical" sunshine, sum-
mer sunlight being too strong. Carbon
arcs are used to produce the artificial
light'.

a number of Adelaide's workers at
the industrial colony in the depths of
the bush 40 miles south of the city.
In the midst of an extensive forest,
owned by the Government, 50 young
men, who have been for a long time
idle in the eity streets, and with no
objective in life, are now proud and
pleased workers, bringing new hope in
surroundings that cannot be exceeded
in loveliness in any part of the world.
This organization is the result of an
appeal by the Central Methodist Mis-
sion under the leadership of the Rev.
Samuel Forsyth, which has led so far
to the raising of £6,000.'
The Government has given • practi-
cally an unlimited area of land, as it
is anxious to insure the success of this
happy little colony in the untamed
scrub.
Only a dense forest confronted the
men when they went down to begin
operations, but within ten weeks, the
nucleus.of a big industrial farm has
been established. Trees are being
felled for agriculttral land and roads
are being made, preparatory to the
erection of . more substantial homes
than the huts which the men now oc-
cupy. Eventually, the colony will have
electric light, telephones and all -the
amenities of a modern settlement.
A retired well-to-do agriculturist,
Samuel It. Gray, has given his ser-
vices to supervise Operations, and sev-
eral fine wooden huts with brick fire-
places, and ample space for four men,
have been built. It is not a just -do -as -
you -please sort of settlement, for
strict discipline is observed and there
are penalties for breaches of rules.
The men are not allowed to leave the
colony without permission, and there
are fixed working hours -8.80 a.m. to
5 p.m., with an hour for lunch. "Lights
out" is sounded at 10.30 p.nh., and
three regular meals are served. Six
acres have now been sown to oats and
fruit trees, and vegetable plots have
been introduced. Stock is being rais-
ed for marketing. Large poultry runs
will be a feature, a Al poultry rearing
will be conducted on modern lines on
a large scale. There will shortly be
nearly 2,000 birds on the colony.
The area so far cleared for grazing
is 170 acres, and as the land in this
locality is particularly goad for vege-
tables, the men are growing Iarge Sup-
plies for the Adelaide market.
The organizing commissioner, Mr.
Forsyth, says that although the colony
has been established primarily to re-
lieve the prevailing unemployed, it is
hoped to make it a permanent benefit
to the State.
When Home Paper Ia Late
When the home paper ::ryes to
be a few hours late, post o:;fee em-
ployees are besieged with requests,
demands and coenplaints. The arrival
of the home -town paper IS looked for-
ward to each w-ek with pleasurable
anticipation in most of the homee of
the community. Did you ever hear of
a post office patron complaining be-
cause he did not receive an adver-
tising circular, store sales bill, mail
order type magazine?
Disgusted at the financial returns

the good jokes," he continued, "are
not original, and the original jokes,

be freshly roasted. Coffee contains

the roasting and much of this savor

Ancient 'Tea Trunk
New York.—A tree trunk believed
to .be mole than 20,000 year's old has
been dug up in the East River, Dr.
Chester A. Reeds, curator of geology,
of the American Museum of Natural
History, announced here on Dec. 10.
It was found about 150 feet below the
surface, near the foot of the Brook-
lyn pillar of the Manhattan Bridge
and was discovered by Francis Don-
aldson, chief engineer for Mason and
Hager, who are constructing the
Rutgers Street tunnel.
Dr. Reeds said its age was between
20,000 and 50,000 years. He added
that several equally aged reinvents
of trees have been uncovered at var-
ious times during the eoginew^ing
work in different parts of New
' City.
