Sulks Spoil Girls.

| We all know the girl who goes around
with chip on her shoulder.
She is always ready to be offended
| her feelings are hurt at every turn.
She is 81 keenly on the ,1okout for
| sights that she finds them where no one
| else would dream of doing So
One can take no pleasure in her ST.
| ciety on account of having to be so very
careful to avoid hurting those hyper
sensitive feelings.
| The girl herself is usually conscious Of
her weakness and makes many an at
tempt to conquer it, but it is n very
difficult quality 10 get the better Of.
If you are one of those easily offended
people, try and remember that the fault
is almost invariably on your side
People are not trying To hurt your
feelings: half the time they do NOT even
know wherein they have offended when
you 20 off in a iii Of sulkS.
The suiHy person is no pleasure To her
self, nor any one else
At first her friends will try to smooth
things over and win her back to good
temper. but they soon tire of it. aud
finally leave her to sulk by herself.
There is no quality in the world that
the majority of people 50 like ms cheer
tulness.
OF course it is often a satisfaction TO
let people see that you are angry and
offended, hut it is Il pretty miserable
sort Of satisfaction after all, and one
that brings no lasting content
The only thing that does bring con-
tent is the knowledge that people love
you.
And people cannot love the sulk: She
won't let them.
Try and like everybody, and you Will
find that every one will like you.
Don't pick up every little offense aud
magnify it into an insult.
The world will take YOU just as it
finds you. If You are cheerful, il will

For the Guest.

No matter how short a time It guest is
to remain, there should be space provid-
ed for the keeping of his clothes and
small things. Failure III this simple act
of hospitality frequently causes great
discomfort to visitor. A dresser with
two small drawers to hold minor ar
ticles, and one or two large drawers be-
meath for underwear, etc, should be
given the guest who is making more
than short stay, and a closet, or part
of one, should be ready for the reception
of his other clothes.
In the closet there might be hangers
for coats, shoe bags for shoes and i
laundry bag for soiled linen: on the bu-
reau well-stocked pin cushion or pin
tray. receptacle for combings. hairpins,
n hand glass and nail file. Some sort
of desk, or writing table supplied with
paper, ink, pens of all sorts, and blot
tiers; a table with a candlestick and
candle on it, a box of matches in PLAIN
view; n work basket properly filled-all
such little comforts go toward making n
guest feel at home. Even a few flowers
can breathe . welcome that no spoken
word can give, and a remembrance of
the idioSyncrasies Of ones guest makes
him at once a member of the family
which is what he should be while under
its roof.
