anxious Il know bow the system

the gunner and asked how he knew

at my watch. said the official. And
how do you correct your watch:' ask

The chinaman,s villa Puzzle.

a Chinaman, dying, left eleven
sheep and three sons and. making a
will, left one-half of his estate to his
eldest boy, o%ne-fourth to the next and
one-sixth to the third son. They wish
ed to divide without killing a sheep,
but could not see how to do 1t, SO they
sent for a wise man. Sending to his
own fold for a sheep, he put it in with
the eleven. Now take your half-six,
said he to the eldest. and he did SO;
the second. take your fourth-three;
the younger, take your sixth and be-
conceive, and they all did so, when
the wise man drove his own sheep
home.
Was the division according to the
will?

PROFANITY BY AGREEMENT.

Bishop Olmsted of Denver tells story
illustrative OF the fact that clergymen
must keep very much farther away from
evil than the ordinary man.
The bishop was once talking in Olmsted-
vile with an old fisherman about neigh
boring divine.
"A very good man. the bishop said.
"A good man, yes" assented the old
fisherman. "He swears a good bit for a
preacher though
''Swears?" exclaimed Bishop Olmsted.

but 1 heard him." said the old fisher
man. obstinately Il sat beside him at

22 The Secret Of Happiness 3 q f S By Dorothy Dix 22

| women are left idle with nothing to do
but brood over their sorrow.
The lesson of all Of this is to set busy
if you would be happy.
If you are a man who has always
fought an unequal battle with fate and
has gone down in defeat don't 1t your
self sink into querulOus, pessimistic
"knOcker." Get up and try something
else. and work so hard at it that you
won't have time to recall the blows that
you have received, nor even to be con-
scious Of the wounds you may be get
ting.
If you are an old man, too feeble 10
work, don't sit down and bemOan the
/ days of your youth, and make yourself
a burden TO everybody around you by
your lamentations over how much better
things fused to be- than they are now.
Find some interest in life. Take up
some hobby, and ride it so hard and fast
that the days viii go by like a flash. and
you will be gay and cheerful company
before you know it.
If you are young girl, discontented
and fretful, because you can't have the
pretty clothes and go to the parties that
richer girls enjoy, cut out the whining
and go to work and make the money
that you want. The whole field of labor
is open TO you, and you will find that
there is a lot more fun in making the
money TO buy a new gown than there is
If you are a married woman and are
eating your heart out because matrl-
mony has proven a failure and your nus
band disappointment, just try the work
cure for it for a while. Turn off your ser
want and roll up your sleeves and get
busy with the kitchen stove and the
broom.
If you will observe, it is the women
who live in apartment hotels and keep
maids who find out most frequently
that their husbands are common, soul
less. material creatures, who are fncapa-
Bile of approaching them as do some
lOng-haired aesthetics or professors.
Women who are kept on the jump from
morning until night, cooking and wash
ing. and scrubbing, and minding babies
are not troubled with the affinity bust
ness. They are too busy trying to make
the ends meet. and spread one dollar
