NOT ALL in BOOKS
COLLEGE WoMAN's IDEA OF TRUE
EDUCATION.
Tangible and Intangible Results OF the
Four Years Training-One's Own
Philosophy the Only Phil
osophy Worth Having.

IF we could collect in one place at
the end of the college life every Wis
ible result of the four years work"
said serious young woman who was
recently graduated from well-known
college, I'VE might fancy for moment
that there was a great deal more in
those books and papers than there
as we realized afresh all the fullness
of college life we should feel that the
best things gained were not those in
the books and papers, but somewhere
else. This last thought would be
much better one than the first, be-
cause the only right and proper place
for everything that has been acquired
is not within the narrow limits of note
books, but present and ready in the
daily thoughts, and 80 influencing
them as to affect continually the actual
life.
1.-THE women-and the men, too
who use to the fullest that which they
have, although this may be little, are
infinitely wiser than they who go on
accommodating and piling up informa-
ton, with no coherent purpose nor
with any definite plan," continues this
philosopher The trouble with a great
many people in this world is not that
they are lacking In sufficient brains.
but that they do not know how to
use those they have. Waste is always
unintelligent; and 1t is the worst
waste in the world to leave idle and
useless the facilities which are capable
of being alert and helpful. That this
is tendency with womankind-even
with college women-in only too well
known An illustration in point is
comment of one of this years gradu-
ates: When went home in the spring
vacation and heard my father talking
about strikes and labor unions tried
TO be intelligent and bring to the fore
all my training In economics; but 1t
was pitiful how much was in my note
books and how little in my mind ready
for use.'
Disconnected facts are only good
when they become significant, and
they only become significant when
they assume their proper places in the
scheme of living. The wisest people
are they who see life in its true pro-
portion; they can trace the origin, the
relationship and the meaning of events
and results in their daily life, and all
things have a meaning for them.
These people are not always the ones
who have had the widest and best edu-
cation; they are often hampered by
this very lack of mental training, but
they have found some answer to their
Questionings. Therefore they ponder
and puzzle, put two and two together,
until finally they begin to find answers
and to interpret causes and results.
They work out their own philosophy,
which is after all, the only philosophy
worth having!"

are constipating, especially those that
contain opiates. Kennedy's Laxativ e
Cough Syrup is free from all opiates
and it cures the cold by gently moving
the bowels and at the same time it
soothes irritation Of the throat and
lungs, and in that way stops the cough.
It's especially recommended for chill
