Who Is There Among Us Who Can
Escape from Worry2

Calmness and serenity are recon-
mended for almost everything in these
days. Horace Fletcher considers
these qualities even more important
than chewing. IN the attainment Of
health The beauty doctors say that
no cosmetics viii avail to prevent
wrinkles and preserve youth without
calmness and serenity, and they are,
said to be the most potent of ali
charms in her who would be pleasing
to the opposite sex. "Be serene.

let who viii be viyacious"
Il all sounds very simple, but in
order to follow such advice it would
be necessary to be a hermit and then
what would be the use Of being we'll
or beautiful or attractive? How can
anyone be serene who plays golf, or
has cantankerous relatives. who wants
to argue about woman suffrage or re-
ligion, or who has not a sure and GER
tain and adequate income2 Man that
is born Of woman is born to worry, as
the sparks fly upward, and 1t Is only
adding irritation to his other woes
to tell him that att good things may
be his il he win only be serene.
