Crytaeethesia Saves Woman.

Boss Murphy Will Learn.
The air giant ZR-1, bigger than the
biggest steamship, uses less than a
gallon or gasoline per mile In her flight
of. 2,200 miles. A big ocean steamer
would need two tons of coal to one
gallon of gas tor a giant flyer. That
shows the difference In power needed
to push aside light air and heavy
water and lt tolls you how cheaply
men will travel In years to come If they
get rid of that "all the traffic will
bear" slogan. It Is quite probable that
in future one day's work wlll earn the
actual cost of a flight around the world.
Professor Klchet of the French Academy of Medicine says woman possesses a fuculty, called "Cryptaethesla."
That's a scientific name for Intuition,
woman's strange power to judge character at a glance, her ability Instantly
to tell truth from falsehood.
"Cryptaesthesla" is older than the
French Academy of Medicine, older
than the pyramids. Women practiced
that faculty a hundred thousand years
ago, when their husbands came wandering in late from the cave across the
valley.   It's their one safeguard.
WOMAN INJURED UNDER
FREIGHT CAR.
Mrs. Anna Ktnkunlowics. of Hamilton si root, wns serverely injured last
Sniiiriliiy morning when she was run
over by a freight car while underneath it picking up coal. Her left
leg was badly crushed. She was
taken to the local hospital in Zllch's
ambulance where she was given surgical treatment.
Mrs. Kinhunlowics recently moved
here from Lorain.
CHRISTMAS SEALS
NOW ON SALE
Wreathing the slprlt of Christmas
and bearing a message of hope and
cheer for the afflicted, the little Christmas Seal is with us again.
Thirty million of them have been
distributed In Ohio to go on sale December 1 and to be used from December 1st until Christmas on letters and
Christmas packages.
That means selling $300,000 worth or
seals to six million people or Ave cents'
worth to each person. "That's easy,"
you say, "my money's ready for you."
Selling seals is easy—everyone Is
willing to buy their share if you get to
them but that't where the work comes
in.
Getting to 6,000,000 people takes
organization—takes men and women
willing to take off their coats and
work— even to sacrifice their own
valuable time. It takes time and it
takes money.
For raising funds for health work.
