MAN'S JUDGMENT OF WOMEN Real Truth, Though .Long Known, is Here Published Absolutely for the First Time. A man notices, first a woman's face, second her skirt, third her shoes and fourth her hands. He rarely sees her hat, but proba bly feels It. He gets the effect of it umconsciously. Mentally, a mlan is first conscious of a woman's eyes, second her voice. Be yond these two his curiosity doesn't But itf her voice shows too much of the clever or the iftellectual he begins to back off, and then probes her eyes to see whether they belie her voice or not. A woman's eyes often do this same thing. Her voice may say, "I am very highbrow," while her eyes are saying. "Don't you believe It I" This is the way, all over the world, men are judging women and have al ways judged them. But it Is a great secret. Nobody knows It but a very few people who have solemnly agreed never to divulge it It Is so universal among all men that they are quite unconscious about It. It is here published for the first time, thus violating tradition and cus tom, which declare that what every body knows should never be revealed. -Thomas L. Masson in the New York Sue. TREES LINE MEMORIAL ROAD People of Pennsylvania County Have Worthily Paid Tribute to Fallen S*Ilder Heroes. York county, Pennsylvania, has the honor of possessinlg the largest stretch of road lined with memorial trees in memory of the fallen heroes in the great war In the country. The trees, numberlng several thousand, have bees in course of planting for two years under the eauspice of the York Woman's club. They extend in a con tinuous line on both sides of the Lin coln highway entirely across the coun ty. Two tablets, at either end of the 25-mile thoroughfare, were recently unveiled and dedicated. At the exer cises a letter from Mrs. Warren G. Harding was received by the Woman's club, In which she said: "In the planting of 25 miles of that famous highway, you have erected a memorial that the entire country can enjoy in the years to come. May long life attend the trees you have placed In the care of the Lincoln Highway Memorial and Tribute Tree assocla tiom." Every free Is worked with the name of a Pennsylvania soldier who gave his life In the war, and the trees have been registered with the Ameriean Forestry association. Some Water Power. Thirty-one per cent of all water power In this country is on sites with It the national forests, while all that ea sites outside the national forests 1s dependent upon water ailsing in them, says the Amerlean Forestry a sociation, which Is fighting to keep the control of these forests out of the heands of the Interior department. The western mountains contain 72 per cent of our total potential water power and of this, 42 per cent is in the west ern forests. This power is be ng rapti ly developed. The United States foe est service has in force 174 power transmission lines and 197 power proj eats, with minimum discharge cape My of 800.000 horse power. The Daring Dinner Gown.

I TRUE BEAUTY I g I * U S By ROSE E. BAKALAR td by McClsre Newspaper Syndicate.) At the five o'clock dismissal shrierk, a Fanny hastily finished sweeping seme dirty chocolate "seconds" off her fheor briskly punched the time clock and of scrambled into her last year's spring made-over suit. "Wot's the grand rusht" languidly chewed a chocolate wrapperess. of "I'm going to the boilermakers' third Is annual tonight," she telegraphed, and Sa bolted. But that was not the main ar cause of her excitement. In all her twenty years she never to had indulged in a real manicure and 7 massage. Now, ever since her ready g. acceptance of Bennle's casual oral ln vitation, two months ago, Fanny had d, forsworn gum, lemon and limes, and a- weekly serial thrillers, to save for this at dreamed-of luxury. Tonight she still ry lacked petty cash to realize her fer 4 vent desire. She vowed to obtain that deficit somehow, somewhere. Hence m the "grand rush." at Five minutes' hurried walk from the factory brought her into her home, ou at the stoop. a At a small, second-hand table near . the back window, sat Jole. Opposite d him reigned plump Mrs. Zibin, con t tentedly masticating some hot boiled potatoes. Fanny threw her late model on a D nearby chair seat and hastened into the family bedroom anxiously re counted-only one whole dollar. She scanned her healthy finger naill, then peered at the worried, youthful reflection in the half blind Sglass. h "I just gotta, I Just gotta, that's Sall," she murmured. After carefully 1 retying her hoarded treasure, she B thoughtfully walked into the kitchen. "Why can't you rive it to me, mat' Q bringing up that subject again. "All I k need now is 40 cents." . Mrs. Zibin coughed dryly, and with . arched eyebrows and shrugging shoul g. ders, mildly asked, "Forty cents? e Where should I get you 40 cents? I tell y you papa is right when he hollers. You !. don't know what suffering is yet. So ). many people go around with their g hands in their pockets-with nothing to do, and it wants you a massage. A t massage you want? A piece of hard a bread to put in your mouth, you should i be glad, yet you cry your eyes out I for a massage." I "I need it. I gotta have It. Just p this time, ma," she entreated. "It's them new peoples," Mrs. Zibln peeled another jacketed potato. "Such a noises what they make! It should only a clap them in their head. Three days a what they moved In, and every mantel a of mine they break. Go, Fanny. Go holler on them. They should stop." "I have no time. I gotta dress. Tell Jole." r Our Imbiber of written thrills and r oggy lumps raised a shrewd counts t nance. "You always tell me to go. I a won't go. You told her first." a Mrs. Zibin sighed heavily as she Speeled and aired her sorrows to no one a In partlcular. "Such children I got." a Reluctantly Fanny tapped on the a noisemaker's door and entered. On t the bare floor crouched an exceedingly r thin woman, soothing a walling child. "Why do you make so much noise?" tndifferently. "I can't help it," creaked the living F skeleton. "My kid bangs the foor C when he's hungry." Fanny adored children. Drawing a deep breath, she plunged. "Here." She dropped her clinking cap Ital into the squattlng, skinny lap, I then met the unturned, deeply sunken I eyes. A msul lay bare its gratitude. ., Fanny then descended as softly uas pessible. > "A kid and his ma are starvin' up t stairs." quietly reported Fanny. SMrs. Zlbln lost hebar appetite. "Is ItT Noo" she gasped, "I'll uo t get them a bite. Don't stand looking at I me. Go dress. It's getting late." SThe falthful alarm clock on the * shelf warned seven. S Roused to action, an awakened pan r ny quickly slipped off her made-over, cheap serge, energetically mamaged ber smooth skla with plain soap and Scold water, dusted it with talcum, and perhcted a quick maniculre with a common plnbead. Quite eontrary to her mood, she hummed, "I've Got the * Bues." With cheeks beerlng a tantalising fluash, such as no beauty expert could hope to produce, and eyes sparkllng Swith understandln, she answered Ben I ale's knock. At sight of her be SwhbisUtled. S"Geel" was his pithy tribute, "you look great!" At the ball some msaid it was her ex presnlea, but whatever the eause of hbet attractlveunea, the majority ad mired it, and forgot to notice the ab. sece of plk-paste-higbpolish on her duean fngernalls Qulte a long ti~pe later, we see Fanny I In her own catortabble home, hem ring the party dress o her lltedlng grownup daughter, and wlading up her discoverwy of that whole-hearted serv-.

After a time they dis coverei1 that the trouble arose from the hItavy spider webs. When the sun was out. the webs were dry and there was no trouble; but at night when the webs were covered with dew. short cir cults occurred. The only remedy is constant brushing away of the webs from the telephone wires. How New Fuel Is Made.
