Tho Good Will Habit.

A habit of holding a kindly attitude
of mind toward everybody has pow
erful influence upon the character. 1t
lifts the mind above petty jealousles
and meannesses. 1t encircles and en-
larges the whole life. Where we meet
people, no matter If they are strangers
we feel certain kinship with ana
friendliness for them If we have form
ed the good will habit.
In other words, the kindly habit, the
good will habit, makes us feel more
sympathy for everybody. And If we
radiate this helpful, friendly feeling
others will reflect 1t back to US.
On the other hand, If we go through
life with a cold, selfish mental attitude,
caring only for our own. always look
inc for the main chance, only thinking
Of what will further our own interest
our own comfort, totally Indifferent to
others. this attitude will after awhile
harden the feelings and the affections
and we shall become dry. pessimistic
md embarrassing.

Much Dancing In the Capital.

Washington has gone dancing mad
Never was dancing such a craze. and
notwithstanding hints that such capers
were not beseeming the chief execu-
tive Of the United States the presi-
dent recently has thrown dull care to
the winds and sought diversion in the
gay waltz and the spirited barn dance.
Miss Roosevelt has been the reason
for giving weekly dances in the White
House since the first Of the year. and
all Washington. young. cid and middle
aged, has set out to dance. The pres
ident is as skillful in picking a way
through the intricacies of modern
Waifllng as tnrUu.,u hunting country.
He enters into the festive spirit and
dances vigorously. Grizzled generals
and stately admirals and diplomatists
so covered with honors and decora-
lions as to look like the kaiser lead
forth the blushing buds and whirl in
the barn dance. This lively measure
Is the favorite.

English Society Woman Who Expects

English Society Woman Who Expects
to Meet President In African Junale.
Charlotte Mansfield, the we'll known
English authoress. has just started
from England to embark on one of tho
most adventurous journeys ever under
taken by woman. She proposes to
60 from Cape Town. South Africa. to
Cairo. Egypt. distance Of 5000 miles
accompanied by only native guides
Part Of the way lies through prac-
tically UNEMPLOYED country.
Midway in the South African Jungle
she hopes to meet President Roose-
welt. Though the meeting place is not
as yet determined upon, Miss Mans
field thinks 1t will be somewhere near
Nairobi, north Of Lake Tanganyika
The natives Of this district are known
to be treacherous and hostile, and as
Miss Mansfield will be the only white
woman among them the situation is
likely to prove highly interesting, to
say the least.
The adventurous woman spent all
her spare time lately in learning how
to use firearms. so that should she be
attacked in making one Of the most
perilous trips on record she will be
able to give good account Of herself
What will carry Miss Mansfield
through successfully Is perhaps the
daring character Of her project. Though
not the first journey made by a white
woman through this portion Of Africa.
1t Is the first time one of her sex has
attempted to ''go through" on the lines
laid down by Miss Mansfield. Most
others who have made the trip have
done SO from necessity. going from
one part of the district to another in
order to reach some permanent resi-
dence In tine country and having as ut
tie to do with the natives as possible
With Miss Mansfield. however. It Is
different. She intends to try to ''affili-
ate" with the natives. to learn their
habits Of thought and to study their
customs. She Is a great believer in
the psychology Of the native races.
and. as she is somewhat Of seer her
self. will strive to get zen rapport"
with the abOrigines in way hitherto
undreamed Of by others.
Despite all Miss Mansfield's disclaim-
ers as to the danger that may attend
her In passing through this country.
persons acquainted with the matter
say that 1t is risky thing for wo-
man to do. She has already received
hosts of letters from white residents in
Africa-wholly unknown to her-warn-
ing her against undertaking so peril
Gus trip, but. as all her arrange
ments are now made. she says there is
no turning back.
Miss Mansfield has achieved fame In
England in various walks Of life. She
is well known author and as q poet
enjoys the distinction of being called
the ELLA Wheeler Wilcox" of Eng
land
