THE NICE GIRL.

She has so much to DO that she has
no time for morbid thoughts.
She awakens cheerfully in the morn
ing and closes her eyes thankfully at
night.
She never thinks for moment that
she Is not attractive or forgets to look
as charming as possible.
She is conslderate of the happiness of
others, and 1t is reflected back to her
as from a looking glass.
She is her own sweet, unaffected.
womanly self Therein lies the secret
of her popularity, OF her success.
She is always willing to give sugSes-
lions that will help some less fortunate
one over the bad place in LIES jour
ney.
She never permits herself to grow
old, for by cultIvating all the graces of
heart, brain and body age does not
come to her.
She believes that life has some Sc
rious work to do, that the serious work
lies very close to the homely, everyday
duties and that kind words cost moth

THE GIRLWHo EARNS MONEY

She owes n Duty to Herse1G In the
Disposal of Her Income.
The girl who throws her money
around carelessly, who never realizes
the difference between use and abuse,
who never has the courage to say that
she cannot afford any pleasure. is not
doing her duty. Her mind is going to
be troubled and her life will be full of
worry unless she mends her ways.
The girl who earns money owes a
duty to herself in regard to it.
II is very delightful to buy this and
that. to give here and there and to feel
that it Is ones very own that is being
used. Did YOU ever stop to think that
you give so much of your life in ex-
change for this money? Shall you
count your Iifcblood rs nothing and

Shall you forget your duty to your
SELF as natural sequence to every
