TO CURE NERVOUSNESS.
Self Restraint in Women Mark OF
GentiIity and Good Train
ing.

An obvious remedy for the nervous
ness born of hurry may be trite and
commonplace, but it is sensible not
withstanding. Haste inevitably makes
waste in human experience. Delightful
as is the last nap on the drowsy
pillow, difficult as it seems to waken
a little earlier, to get the bath and the
dressing and the little interval for
quiet thought which should be the
prelude to every ones day. a small sac
rifice, trifling degree of resolution,
will enable any person in normal
health to secure an extra half-hour in
the morning. The extra time, so easily
secured. so precious in the gifts it bears
in its hand, will make you and me the
worldwide difference between dignity
and irritation, between composure and
business. writes Margaret Sangster in
Harper's Bazaar.
A woman should face the situation.
whatever it be; discover, if there is
any flaw. what has caused it, and then
calmly and gently, as her province is,
see about setting it right. Half our
worries spring from some occult occa~
sion which we may overcome, and much
of our so-called nervousness, it is ac-
knowledged, is born in worry Some of
it comes from subtle springs which are
located deep in the fountain of our be-
ing, and these are often so incompre-
hcnsible to our friends that they sur
vey our weakness with little patience.
Generations of us. from Mother Eve
the gamut at such of our pet diversions
as have crossed our pathway, and the
woman of the twentieth century has
in her brain the wayworn tracks made
for her by her forebears. From know
ing that course of action is unwise
and inconsiderate to seeing what may
be done to rectify it is often the step
which costs most and counts for most
Every time when we remain silent,
though the desire to speak beats in
sistently at the door of our lips; every
time when, though ready to rush or
to fly or to eXclaim with vehemence.
we are simply quiet, holding ourselves
in with bit and rein, we make real
gain in self-restraint.
And self-restraint in women marks
the line of divergence between the I'M
trained person and the thoroughbred,
estate. Voluble self-pity, emphasized
dislike, exaggerated statements of emo
ton, unreasoning terror. all help to de-
moraliZc the nerves and make the wom-
an sort of nervous degenerate, and
her power to control herself-her pow
annoyance or conquer fright-grows
as she practices it. BY every act of
calmness she gains in the essentials
which keep her spirit calm and free
from agitation.

Smith, grimly. Il thought there must
be something besides 'Sir-r-r in her."
Lady says she don't know you" said
the conductor, who was somewhat puz-
zled. Smith didn't look either drunk or
crazy, or the kind of man to throw off
a car without well substantiated rea-
sons.
"She Doesn't said Smith; "but she's
got quarter of my money"
where? How?" demanded she.
81 don't know where it is now, and
I'd hate to guess said Smith.
Conductor" said the young woman,
in tremulous tones, 'this man came up
to me on the corner and tried to engage
me in conversation. l never saw him
in my life before"
81 thought so,'' said Smith, COM
posedly. Because 1 ventured to adj
dress a lady who had first thrust me
into the gutter and then absorbed my
last cent, you Immediately jump to the
conclusion, you yourself being the lady
in question, that 1 am so overcome by
the attractiveness of the performance
as to try to get up a Irritation with you.
That's what you think, isn't it?"
''Sir-r-r-r!" said the young wom-
an, but this time she said it without
any enthusiasm, as if, rather, she
couldn't think of anything else to say.
One of the passengers was youthful
creature, who now conceived that here
was his grand chance TO play the part
of hero for a damsel in distress. Ac-
cordingly he arose and approached
Smith from the rear.
What right have you to annoy this
lady?' he began, and then stopped, for
Smith had whirled so suddenly as to
make him blink.
'Oh," remarked Smith, in pleased ac-
cents. You're a man, aren't you?
Anyway you wear trousers and the
rest of the garb."
What do you mean, sir?" demanded
the other in fierce accents.
"Why, you see, I've been laboring
under the disadvantage of argument
with lady. But you're different. My
friend''-here Smith laid HAND none
too lightly, on the shoulder of the

other-"unless you wish to experiment
with usually placid temper you will
go back to your seat and make money
minding your business"
The young man sat down, aided
slightly, it may be, by the gentle pres
sure from the hand of Smith. Then the
conductor asked Smith if he wouldn't
rather pay his own fare than make Il
lot of trouble.
"Ofcourse would" answered Smith,
''if l could, but my last cent is now
helping to keep that lady warm"
Here the conductor turned to get the
young woman's fare and she, in her
nervousness, dropped it on the floor.
Then she stopped over to recover it.
AS she stopped she gave little excla-
nation of alarm and put her hand to
her neck. The next instant quarter
rolled out from the front of the collar
and fell to the floor. Smith pointed to
it and smiled sweetly.
DO you commonly carry loose
change in the back of your neck, mad
am?" he asked.
1T isn't mine she gasped. Il don't
know how it got there
"No; it's mine," said Smith, annexing
it, land you'd have found out long ago
that it got there by slipping out of my
hand as l was tossing it in the air if
you hadn't been so afraid that l was
trying to take advantage of your I'M
chaperoned youth and beauty
The young woman turned very red.
Smith handed the quarter to the con-
ductor.
Take two out of that" he said.
Let me out at the next corner" said
the young woman, with vast dignity,
and she went, leaving the coin she had
dropped under the foor-grating. The
youth who had interfered went out too.
Smith got his change and said to the
conductor, pointing to the deserted
coin under the grating:
That's your rake-off.'
Then he went out on the platform
and contemplated with glee the tail
young woman standing on the corner
and repulsing the advances of the
would-be squire of distressed damsels.
