It's a great mistake to try to cure q girl of self assurance.
 It may be a trifie unpleasant at times to feel that ones daughter knows tt all It may be also delightful to see her "come cropper" because she went on ahead without the advice of her elders. but most of us forget one thing
 we have learned mighty little from advice and a precious lot from exps- rience.
 Advice? Bahi We all Of us ask 1t, but how many of us follow it3 And can't we remember that at least two out of the three times we followed ,t we were sorry afterward?
 At least if you lose from following out your own ideas you sdrn some thing, and often if you win from fol- lowing other peoples, instructions you are no wiser than you were before ana wouldn't be able to do the same stunt over again to save your soul.
 Then there is another point worth considering--for one woman who has the ability to decide for herself in this world there are fifty others who cant make a move without consulting their uncles and their cousins and their aunts. So you can see for yourself that self assurance is valuable asset and not one to be nipped lightly in the bud.
 could give you a dozen instances offhand where women have lost most valuable opportunities through inabili- ty to decide quickly through lack of self assurance. of confidence in them selves.

 "Mr. Gates has loved me for three years--not me, but my beauty. You are not even pretty. dear. Forgive me if I speak plainly, but you asked for truth between us"

 During a certain period, lasting about three years, if any one had asked what was the chief feature of the village of Harpersville he would have been told it was gossip and scandal, 1t had come to such a point at last that hardly any two families were on speaking terms. and a number of people had sold out and moved away in disgust.
 The social state of affairs could not have been much worse when the Rev. Henry Bates received a call to i'll the pulpit of one of the two churches. He was a man of 30, and single. and he promised to be popular. It wasn't a month, however, before there were stories floating around to his detri- ment He had come from the West. and 1t was said that his congregation had been pleased to get rid of him, and there were other sly statements and innuendoes calculated to make his po- sition uncomfortable.
 There Is more or less gossip in every village in the land. but as to who starts it, Is always one of those things that can't be found out. Mrs, White hears 1t from Mrs. Black, and Mrs. Black from Mrs. Green. and Mrs. Green from Mrs. Brown, and so 1t goes, ana the Iountain-head' Is seldom located.
 When the Rev. Bates came to find out what a hotbed he had got into he cut short his sermons to do a little outside work. When he came to delve into the situation he was more than astonished. There was just one single woman left in Harpersvlle who hadn't been. talked about to her detriment, and she was an old maid named Sarah Lee. She was not only an old maid but she was extremely homely, and the pastor hadn't been Investigating long before he thought he had located the fountainhead. In another week he was sure of it..
 The old maid was not church mem Der, but the pastor. called on her just the same. and threw out broad hints that the, gossip and the scandalfzer would have hard work to squeeze into the better land when the time cams Sarah agreed with him! and two days later cooked up another canard She was in command of the situation

The marriage came off, the old maid became a wife, and Harpersville knew her no more. Then the calm that set- tied down was indeed blessed. No more gossip--no islander. no lying. In place of them peace, harmony end con tentment. And if the conscience or the Rev. Bates ever pricked him he had but to say to himself;
