FORCEFUL,
* TALENTED,
PRACTICAL
BY JKSSIK ALLKN FOWLER.
(Expert Phrenologist in New
York City.)
Practicality, executive force,
geniality of mind and WfiatiUty
of talent in
some of the cMo
characterist i c i
observable i n
Mr s. Norman
Gait's make-up.
A reader ol
character cannot I
be deceived in:
observing her
practical, ulltar-1
ian and scien
tific mind, for
this shows Itself
in her fully de
veloped brow
and remarkably
rotund forehead, i
~, : -**s : —- i nese give hei
J«Jlt A.ToiuVr great enthusl
" - asm for national sports and her
Interest In whatever Is going on
sround her. She is therefore
fond of nature and all that per
tains to the beauties of country
life, and flowers must appeal to
her In a very idealistic way.
Her sense of color and the
forms of things is very strongly
developed, therefore she cannot
help but be enthusiastic over the
t way In which these things serve
her in her dally life.
Her executive ability Is mani
fested by the width of her head-
Hence she will always show a full
degree of energy, force, spirit
and aggressiveness in modern im
provements and up-to-date events.
She is public-spirited and is in
clined to support useful and pop
ular measures.
Her at ni. tlii> of mind
shows itself in the fullness of
her posterior brain and her
lame social faculties. These
are reflected in her riuliunt
smile, her round full chin,
the riitiindlty of her face and
the brightness of her expres
sion. She is whole-hearted,
friendly, hospitable, and
should niiike an excellent
hostess and a devoted wife.
Her versatility of talent shows
itself in many parts of her brnin.
especially through her artistic
faculties, her appreciation for mu
sic, and her conversational and
llnqulstle capacity. Talking
should be easy for her, and as an
entertainer at private or public
functions she has probably few
equals.
Her memory of details, events,
foces, and the names of people
should prove of wonderful assist
ance to her In carrying out any
public fnuctlon where a memory
of such things Is required.
She is able t" put (teople
at ease ln her society, and
this is one of the most im
port.mi requisites for a
president's wife. She will lie
able to turn from plebeian to
prince with perfect compos
ure and ease of manner, and
talk with each on mutters
that pertain to their life and
work.

KEY TO MRS. GALT'S CHARACTER
SANTA GATHERS TOYS
FOR EMPTY STOCKING
Taeoma Santas have started on a
hunt for toys and presents to fill
the stockings of Empty Stocking
kids to the brim.
One of these Santas called up
today and asked us to bo sure and
send her the name of a boy be
cause she'd been shopping and had
bought—well, things that would
just make a boy jump up in the
air with surprise.
Funny, isn't it, to be saying
"she" about Santa Claus? Hut
there are a lot of Mrs. Santas in
Taeoma this year helping out old
man Santa In his strenuous ef
forts to see that no poor child Is
overlooked. j
Volunteer Santas are being
supplied with names of children,
whose stockings might be empty,
as fast as the names come in. The
Associated Charities is seeing to it
that each Saint Nick has at least
one child to make happy.
And the Santas say they are
having the time of their Hveß
rounding up toys and presents.
Read this letter from a Taeoma
mother, then see if you don't want
to join the army of Santas, too:
"Dear Empty Stocking Editor:
THIS LITTLE STOCKING NEEDS FILLING!
WON'T YOU FILL IT?

"The children will feel so bad

For the Christmas week bill at

and, according to advance re
ports, it Is supported by several
offerings of stellar merit. The
headllner will bo "Colonial Days,"
a gorgeous musical offering con
sisting of tsn Inst i 'umentallsl .
and singers. The quaint costum

An additional headline attrac
