WOMEN TO BE PROUD op
Those Who DO All The. Others Happy Are to He
 Commended.

Some women have the bon
 ulty of knowing precisely Tly ,y5., iae' do in every emergency to add ta 'e happiness Of those aroppd " the They are not as rare as sor,. ein imagine; they are to be fonn5 nay every walk of life. The fact tha4, h are so little known and so so,5 sney appreciated k due to the fac, 'uOn as rule they are not conscio,.' 'uel doing anything more than S ot duty. dictated by the promptina' ae'r heart full of the milk of b1m. V kindness. The woman of this d;4 'aa sition makes no effort to watcb pO' for the happiness of others, bp, 4' just as natural for her to do .t little things which make life nis- se ant as il k for the ordinary womes to sit and wait for others to a things for her.
 The secret Of this woman's suco... in being such comfort is that st' is thoroughly unselhsh. says a hon hold paper. Self always comes lss, with her. She never thinks of II. personal effort she must make = achieve some things if it k nece.s.,n that such things should he done fo. another's comfort. She never tbi,l. that she receives no reward for b.. acts. but keeps on steadily da;s, for others. She is content to stav ha hind the scenes when some social ,t fair is going on in order to see ts,, nothing happens to mar the ooA time. She works diligently to ma. pare some one else for vacation trip and does not sigh that she i. not to be participant in the pleas. ure.
 She ls the woman who at picn;e sees that everyone else is supnl;ad with lunch and is content with bits or two for herself. She is the woms, who knows how to put up just such lunches as the picnickers are sure to like, and she does all this as if there were no question of anyone else do. ing it. She is the woman who is only too willing to supply the table with all the daintieS which individual mem. bers of the family desire, counting not the effort it must cost her to bring this about
 In fact, she is the woman who does whatever k to be done. and the beauty of il all is her supreme un. consciousness that she is doing any. thing. She k not very often to b. found among the young women and almost never among women who are longing for career, for the latter have time to think only of their own self-advancement end the former find themselves to- interesting to pay very much attention to others, but she k feund among the middle-aged women who have family whose wants are always very much in eyi- dence and she is the blessing of the household.

Dayton. the commander of the Chicago, for not personally at tending to the defense of the officers, and comments on the "revoltinC in- dignities" suffered by the officers while confined at Venice. Under the circumstances, Admiral Crowinshield, holds a "court-martial would be q farce
