How TO Have a Good
Time When on a Vacation.

You are starting Oh summer cam
paign. little sister.
You want to be admired to receive
attention, perchance to catch a husband
to enjoy the pleasures and prequisities
that constitute what is known in femi-
nine parlance as having good time
Shall | give You dead straight tip on
the best way of achieving your desires e?
BE unseltish.
Unselfishness IS an old-fashioned virtue
that has fallen into innocuous desuetude
l know. 1t is an accomplishment that
isn't included in the modern girls roper
toire; but believe me, it is one of the
never-dying charms in d woman. and so
if you want to be popular play unselfish-
ness straight across the board to win,
as our sporting friends say.
| have seen many beauty, many a
wit, many a rich girl with Saratoga
trunks full of good clothes, sitting for
lorn and neglected. while hOmely little
girl with scarcely second frOck to
her name but with knack of consider
ing other people. was sought after and
had more invitations to agreeable enter
tainments than she could possibly ac-
cept.
Begin to practice unselishness by
showing some decent considera ton for
other women on the train as you set our
on your summer journeying. The absO-
ward each other on the cars is enough to
make angels weep.
Try to realize that because you have
paid for one seat on a sleeper it does not
give you the exclusive use of the car,
not entitle you to block the aisle with
your luggage, nor guarantee monopoly
of the dressing room.
Most women think that it does. and
the more inexperienced they are in
travelling the more they think it. This
is an error. Every other woman on the
car has paid just as much for her ticket
as you have for yours, and has equal
rights.
OF course. it seems to girl that the
most important thing on earth Is her
looks.
Because of this she thinks nothing of
getting into the dressing room of Il morn
ing and barricadiug it against all Of the
other women for nm hour or so as she
curs each individual hair and massag es

exercises. while a line of half-dressed
and frowSy sisters stand in the aisle and
vainly batter oil tie door aud beg for

If any girl thinks that she looks pretty

their brothers, WHO may be along with

II there Is a mother IN the train with
a crying baby help her if you can with

PHYS sake refrain from looking at the
poor woman as if she was 4 criminal
who had deliberately brought a waiiine
child along 10 annoy you.
Reflect that not many years ago you
were crying babe yourself. and that the
chances are that not many years hence
