THE HOWE, ITS PROBLEMS IND LNZERES1
MAKE YOURSELF POPULAR

They say "A poet is born, not made
and in this the attractive girl resembles
/ him. Yet cOunterfeits of both species
are abroad in the land-genuine things
/ being trifie rare-and the .'colora bic
imitation" is often accepted in lieu OF
the original
| So. girls. irthe fates have not blessed
you with the divine faculty Of being
! charming. do the next best thing and
make yourselves popular.
A fair face, great talent. or ready
wit are gifts bestowed on the favored
few-they come from the gods: and II
the gods have seen ut TO deny you these.
why. go ahead and cultivate others in
stead; and these others. of your own
choosing. may be Of more use to you
than great beauty or exceptional ability.
Blessing of Tact
Tact, therefore. should be cultivated
before aught else. Tact Is an elusive
something that every woman should
possess. yet which. alas. is too rarely
found. The tactful woman always does
the right thing at the right moment:
she recognizes her opportunity and
seizes it.
Cheerfulness is another gift or trait
that should be cultivated BY this is
not meant levity-a silly laughter that
means nothing-but the art of looking
on LIES sunny side-sunshine that is
based on strong, sane optimism. Few
missioners reap greater rewards than
those who bring sunshine into the dark
places.
Again, the popular girl does not talk
overmuch about herself You see other
people otter want to talk about them
selves, and sOmeone must give them a
chance; ana the good listener is more
charming navy times than good
talker. Besides. girls who take them
selves for thei, text constantly become
tiresome ere long.
Genuine Sympathy.
Sympathy comes next in the qualities
on our list. 1t has its root in unseIfish-
ness. and is. therefore. easily cultivated
by anyone who is unselfish. Both men
and women like sympathy.
1t is as balm to a wound. Peopr6
Ike TO be condoned with and rubbed
down. just as a cat does. only il must
be done because you really like IT. not
because you think YOU should. How
ever. pity is akin TO love-. and the
wise girl viii be careful here. unless. to
be sure. she finds her head accompany
ing her heart.
Tnally, be feminine. Men women I
won't last. and to be a good and true
woman means more than to be a sham
man. Whether it is because the mascu- 4
line raind is jealous Of its prerogative. I
or beo2use it is too sincere to .avor a 4
sham this is a nice suppositiol'. so let I
US belieFe it,, il looks with contempt

frantic efforts to be manniSh Rational

TIE men who have fascinated me

HE men who have fascinated me
have always been public men.
There is something in the ap-
plause of thousands surging
round one vivid personality which thrills
and possesses.
I do not applaud: I stand away from
the thousands, and then the little faint
struggle TO be original ceases, and I am
an admiring unit with the rest. only a
thousand times more fervid. because the
personality of the man has dominated
mine-for the moment
I suppose it is quite in the orthodox
order of these things that the first man
who charmed me to enthusiasm should
have been the embodiment of strength

FLOCK TO PARKER.

Democrats in Congress generally
give cordial approval 10 the New
York Endorsement of Judge Alton
Brooks Parker In the opinion OF a
very large majority OF them-Senators
and Representatives alike-the action
of the Albany convention settles the
question as to the Democratic stand
ard bearer in the coming campaign
They also like the platform which the
New Workers adspted.
There was little in it that either
faction Of Democracy could criticise,
and much that both factions could
Commend. The platform wa accord
iugiy hailed as boon to the party in
IS eaot to close ranks and harmon
Ike all differences.
Both the Virginia Senators and the
North Carylina Senate Jsexpressed
their satisfaction at what the New
York nvention had done Senator
Daniel remarked that the proceedings
were very gratifying to him. To be
sure, the platform contained ino dec
la-ations that "struck straight from
shoulder, " but it was to Senator
Daniels mind onsefvative platform
which would go Tar toward helping
the factions OF the party TO hatmon-
ize. His colleague. Senator Martin,
al 50 said that the New York platform
was well calculated to bring democrats
OF all shades of opinion close to-
gether. II am hign.y pleased with
it said MIR. Martin.
