10 BECOME sELF-RELIANT.


1t may be surprise TO many Of you
to discover that over sensitiyeness Il
| really TO great extent selfishness
and undue seH-importance. If we did
not consider ourselves first, we should
not expect so much attention and def
erence from others, says American
| Queen
| Sensitiveness Is misery to the per-
sons afflicted with it. Offense is taken
when it is not intended and you are apt
to imagine yourself neglected or
abused when there was no cause what
ever for such Observation-Disclosures
It Is all very well to have delicacy
Of feeling, but II should not be fos-
tered and pampered untilyou begin to
consider yourself really superior and
afraid Of contamination with the
world.
Ask yourself if the offense and NOR
tification felt are not really within
your own breast, rather than in the ac-
tions of others. 1t is not possible that
you can never be mistaken, and that
the world has conspired to make and
keep you miserable, you must realize
this. If you have taken offense once
without cause, does it not follow that
you may do it again and again? When
you find yourself once mistaken, re-
member the experience and profit by it
in future.
Try hard to overcome the constitu-
tional self-consciousnes that is at the
bottom Of it all. DO not demand Of
others more than you give. For in
stance, two girls are dear friends. We
shall call them Juliasand Annie. Now
Julia is the sensitive one and she real
" makes Annie unhappy by imposing
in SO many ways upon her affection. II
she has a new hat Annie must prompt-
ly notice and admire it. If Annie makes
a new friend Julia is jealous and weeps
because she considers herself sup
planted in the affections Of her dear
est friend. And SO it goes from one
grievance to another until one is all
ways 'son pins and needles" for fear Of
offending, and the other is always suf-
fering from Imaginary sights. 1t can
be readily seen that such friendship
lacks in the one essential confidence /
without which true friendship is
really impossible
II You will adopt the simple remedy
Of thinking more Of the comfort and
happiness Of your friend, you will be
very much surprised at the results.
Try it and see for yourself.
Remember that you are not infalli-
Bile, and even if you should entertain
such an impression you cannot expect
others to share your opinion. tits an
undeniable fact that the person who
demands so;much Difference is the very |
one who DOES not showit. She does not
because she is self-centered and fails |
to realize that other people may be |
quite as important as herself. Forget |
yourself, take things more lightly and
be self-reliant and self-respecting

NIGHT BLINDNESS.
believed to Ne an Exhausting OF the
Power Of Vision by Too
Great Light.

This is an interesting subject from
several points of view. The common
misapplication Of it's scientific name
Is Of interest to philologists; "moon-
blink, its popular name among sailors,
is Of interest to the student Of super
stations. and It is interesting in itself
to the medical man. It was called by
most Of the Greek writers nyctalopia
(from nyx, night, alaos, blind, and
opsis. vision), meaning night-blind-
ness; but most medical writer's of the
present day call it hemeralopia, dcriv-
ing it from emera, day, and opsis, vi
sion- The meaning of this word is real-
" day vision, and so by contrast night
blindness. The result of this confu-
dion is that no one knows what
writer means by hemeralopia or nyctal-
opia without further definition, for the
terms are devoid of scientific precision,
says Youths Companion.
Night-blindness is condition in
which vision is perfect, or fairly so, in
daylight, but fails with the setting Of
the sun, and is not restored under or
dinary conditions Of artificial illumina-
ton. The sufferer from night-blind-
ness can usually see the light of cam
die or lamp when he looks directly at
II, but he cannot read, even when the
light is thrown directly upon the page.
Usually, however, he sees we'll in a
room lighted brilliantly with electric
ity. the degree Of illumination then
approaching that of sunlight.
The. cause of night-blindnes is be-
lieved to be an exhausting of the power
Of vision by too great light, for it oc-
ours mainly among soldiers and sailors
In the tropics, who are exposed for
many hours to the glare of the sun,
and among arctic explorers, whose
eyes are dazzled by reflection from the
snow. On shipboard it is often asso-
ciated with scurvy, and persons who
are depressed physically or mentally,
or in any other way "run down." are
more likely 10 suffer than the strong.
Sailors have a superstition that the
trouble is due to imprudence in sleep
ing on deck in the moonlight, and this
belief is embodied in the term moon
blink" by which they call it. The trop-
icaI moon is probably as guiltless in
this respect as It is in the production
OF insanity. except that it might act as
the sun does. although of course in a
minor degree. in dazzling an already
weakened eye.
The only treatment for night-blind-
ness is keeping away from bright light.
or protecting the eyes with goggles or
. bandage until the exhausted retina
has recovered its tone.

The "matrimonial bureau ' i5 an
institution forbidden by the spirit
but tolerated BY tho letter oi law
Marriage brokerage has been re-
pugnant TO law since the days
when law was inscribed on Roman
tablets, since even the days when
the Romans in the exercise Of a
free if somewhat arbitrary choice
of mating descended upon the Sa-
bines and bore away their women
for wives. That there shall be no
middleman but absolute freedom
Of choice in the matter Of marry
ing is the laws policy now as then.

interferes with that freedom, and

Of individuals which patronizas

NOTES FOR THE HOUSEWIFE.
Odds and Ends Of Domestic Lore
Picked Up from Household
Authorities.

Damask dinner cloths and naplinI
| should have hem a trifle less thar
a quarter of an inch wide; this
should be hand sewed and very neat
| ly done.
An excellent effect is given tc
white or cream woodwork if after
the enamel paint is put on the wood
is thoroughly rubbed with pow.
dered pumice stone.
A buffers trick for polishing fine
glass is to dust it over with bag
in which is little powdered indigo
or other blue. Afterwards rub
hard with chamois.
Do not polish new wood until it
shows signs of actual deterioration
of tone. Too frequent application
Of oil results sooner or later in gum
my surface unpleasing to the eye
and the touch. Rub the surface
every day with soft dry cloth. For
carved pieces soft brush with long
hairs will be found necessary.
The successful cooking of dried
fruits is only attained by long soak
ing and slow cooking. Wash the
fruit well and soak in cold water
overnight. Take out the fruit, add
sugar and boil the water, skimming
carefully. Put the fruit back into
the water and simmer until tender.
Dried fruit cooked in this way bears
no resemblance to the tough, messy
dish which is usually served.
A box or small cupboard containing
supply of cleaning fluids and ma.
terials will be found source of
comfort in the household. Ammonia,
gasoline and a small bottle Of chloro-
form, than which there is nothing
better for cleaning silk and delicate
materials, win do for liquids. French
chalk and pipeclay should be in
cluded, and this will suffice for all
practical purposes, although many
people have their own favorite prep
arations which they will always have
on hand. 1t goes without saying
that the cleaning cupboard should
be placed out of reach of children,
and away from all danger of fire.
Every closet door used to have its
cretonne shoe bag, but in these ad-
vanced days boot trees have taken
its place, the shoes being kept in
shape longer than when they were
carelessly thrust into pocket. The
bag has other uses. however. Nit
tens, rubbers, clean dust cloths, .
ball of string, numerous small things
which one would wish to have close
at hand, arc conveniently kept in
door pockets. The trouble is that
they are too apt to become recepfa-
eles for all sorts of rubbish. The
domestic science experts who pro-
pose to abolish the kitchen pantry.
and whose motto IS: Everything
n sight would probably object to
shem on this score.

toward evening they found them
selves before a display Of kitchen
utensils. Among them was a soup la

woman, so the old woman in an alb

one of those" and Immediately she
had it. The old man was so enraged

he retorted, Il wish that was stuck

this was done. Thereupon he was at

only thing left to do was to wish the
ladle out again. So all three wishes
