The Third Mind.

Please do not call me any kind Of
an tie. am not trying to feed you
with any cut and dried ism or ology.
But for the sake of useful common
sense let me tell you something and
ask you if you believe we have a
third mind? a
The animal has mind for food
and exercise and pleasure. The hui
man has a mind for study and useful
originality and faith in the unknown.
The person who reaches the goal of
study and owns a forethought that
reaches beyond the eye, the ear and
the reason-has what?
Starting out to call on a man
crossed the street in a diagonal way
and Unexpectedly met that man in
the middle of the street and attended
to my business with him. A few days
later I met him in his office and we
talked about how met him by means
Of my diagonal trip. He called it an
incident or coincident. Had I fol-
lowed the regular street crossing l
would have missed him. Did a third
mind prompt me to cross as did and
catch him?
could write about many events to
sustain the third mind or mental teleg-
raphy or wireless influence idea.
When it seems to work best there Is
a quiet peaceful confidence that all
the mouey-muscle-min Of the
world could not give. You feel that
you are doing your best without hurry
or worry and that the universe Is
revolving to help you.

Arcade Indices to Forethcucht.

Men in business are growing lists
of things to think of in time to save
time. tt
One man has long printed list OF
questions for himself to answer be
tore he lets the customer, who calls
with an order get away from him.
A minute invested in studying his
index may save an hour or prevent Q
day of trouble. ......
You may have noticed a storekeep
er keeping blank book in which
items out of stock are recorded so
that when an order is sent or the
salesman calls the articles wanted
are down in black and white.
A few days ago l gave young
man an order for some printing and
after getting miles away from him
there were several questions / wished
he had asked me. I was his Gus
toner and it is the place of the seller
to have forethought questions which
will prevent his customer having re-
gret.
One editor wrote me that he could
not see the Arcade Index. Why do
call it Arcade? Arcade means a walk
arched over and during my early re-
searches was impressed by mon
strous arcade building which con-
tanned many kinds of stores and of
fees. Wanting to give my library
name for special occasion, selected
arcade because it is an arch over
every day subjects personally useful
: to mechanical. commercial and pro-
fessienal people. If you have list
of things to think to do, to me that
is an Arcade Index. If you keep
note and scrapbook, to me they are
Arcade Index Records. My work is
to help you make better lists and
more useful books for greater skill in
living and doing.

About the Bones Ache.

Whether to spell it axe or ache
am at times uncertain, but when
have the bones ache l know | have
it-there is no uncertainty there.
Being born in a canal town, where
you could scrape the malaria off from
the fences and the doorsteps, and for
seven years previous to my birth my
mother had taken quinine as you
would eat bread and butter, you can
imagine that for me to get tired out
means to open the door for chills and
discomfort.
BY retiring early find remedy in
rest. 1t does me more good than get.
ting up late or daytime maps. And
others have made the same discov-
cry.
There may be a plan better than
early to bed going. By an evening OF
mental and physical relaxation in an
easy chair, with good ventilation and
comfortable temperature, a better
nights rest may be secured If retir.
ing is postponed an hour or two
Know yourself.
My father said that he would not
have the ague in that canal town and
he resisted it for years, but finally
became conquered.
An old doctor told me he rode fol
several years in an ague country and
escaped by never allowing himself tc
get chilled. He had an overcoat with
him every night in the year.

As we learn to do It
better there's Joy in
any worthy work that
brings us bread and
butter.

You know that you have been your
happiest during some of the most
dismal weather ever endured.
Now how is it that we can be 10y.
full in the fog or freeze, the blizzard
OF the dusty breeze?
Dust Is my worst enemy of any
kind of weather, yet there are times
when / am SO full CT sunshine that I
forget to notice the dustiest kind Of
dust.
You have had SO much sunshine in
your heart at times that you took no
notice Of the dark clouds, sloppy walks
or ugly wind.
What heaven on earth this min.
ute, it would be il we could keep our
blood going in a way to live above
the dust and heat, the cold and sleet,
poor tools and other discords.
1t all rests with the strength of
the heart. A strong heart leads to
better methods, useful ideas, unbroken
cheerfulness. independent good judg.
ment and resourcefulness.
II you believe me why not take
your pencil and write out two lists of
things which you are doing? One
list OF the things that strengthen your
heart and which are worthy of more
attention and another list of the
things which weaken the heart and
are good to abandon. ...

Every ono in the
world needs Just the
right opportunity.

A boy asked his father what he
would do. il he had a trill:on dollar
gold piece and the father replied that
he would give every person a chance
to do the most useful work which each
one is best fitted to do.
1t would require more brains than
money to grow a plan which would
open the right door for every worthy
person in the world and from the med
ical standpoint every person is a
worthy case either for kind treatment
or for incentive and opportunity to
work to the benefit of others and mu-
tual croft.
Something Is being done by indi-
viduals and organizations in the way
of peace on earth and good will among
men. A man of wealth had one of his
old buildings torn down in order to
give work for the winter to a man Of
family and poverty and urdesired idle
ness. Do not let the cynics make you
think that all the trouble in this world
Is wanted by those who have it.

nishes land, money, food, clothing,
seed and farming machinery with a
manager and an opportunity to earn it
all by industry. This is animation,
education and elimination. The
brains necessary, to conduct such an
enterprise In businesslike way to
pay six per cent on money loaned it
for the work, must have absorbed
something from the Divine Intelli-
gence.
The success to be found following
some recent phflanthropic efforts may
mean the beginning of the longed for
millennium but some men of means
look upon certain kinds of rescue work
as business move for the self-preser-
vation of the hopeful and sensible ele-
merits of civilization. The world
should know enough by this time to
get right and remain right.
One of .~my correspondents who
worked his way to Europe on a cattle
ship wrote me about his stop at the
modern mems hotels in New York and
London. He got better treatment for
less money than he ever expected to
receive but the hotels pay good in
terest on the money invested in. them.
The world needs brains and hearts
more than more wealth.
There was a time when worried
about this world but now believe that
God knows almost as much as any
body, and that in every reformatory eff
fort wise workers will be found think
ing out remedies for undesirable con-
ditions within the efforts due to igno-
rance, selfishness and jealousy. The
most dangerous thing in this world is
reformatOry folly or mistakes by re-
formers.

Illuminated Leather Novelties.

illuminated leather" table mats
and spreads are taking the place of
the burnt leather novelties which have
been so popular. Some rich effects
are obtained by this new method Of
decoration, which is far handsomer
than anything ever devised by the py-
rogapher. The work is done by the
use of stencil and the decoration Is
in tic sn,hosse6 style.

Trim and Pretty GjrdIes.

Bead belts have had their day-but
artistic creations of the kind from
abroad are always au fat. The mar.
row patent leather belt that was so
undeniably trim and stylish has been
banished, and tie broad belt of soft
leather or suede has taken it's place.
The broad belts are unbecoming to
the average woman, they are very
expensive and call for high-priced
buckles that can never be used for
any other belt. One of the best of
them is of soft suede in a pale gray.
1t brushes almost as easily as 4 satin.
and therefore accommodates itself nice
ly to the figure. Broad red leather
belts look well worn under short Elton
coats.

When pouring hot fruit into a glass
dish place the latter on a wet cloth.
This prevents any chance of the glass

Tiny ruches, now a very smart

Auditors Help Accuracy.

If 1t were not for what we have to
do to satisfy the auditor we would,
or many of us in many cases would.
get slouchy and then regret it.
If we were wise and rich enough we
would have an auditor with us all the
time to inspect and o. X. all our
thoughts, words and actions. Such an
auditor would be an individual &C
curacy educator.
For poor people the Improvement Of
the heart and the head is about all
that can be done. We might imagine
that the person whom we most re-
spect is with us all the time.

Why at That Place.

A boy wanted to know why a rub
Der band broke where it did and not
in some other place. 1t may have
been the weakest place and had the
worst stretch, or 1t may not have
been the weakest place, but was put
on a bundle in way to get pulled at
that point too hard. Had the task it
was put to been scattered along the
entire band it might not have ever
broken there.
For this reason strong people may
fall down while weaker ones with
smaller duties continue going. How
can we Judge any person until we
know as much as God Almighty?
