Psychology Of Fault-FIndinq.

The other day a man was talking in
a hotel lobby. and he found fault with
everybody and everything. He seemed
to have an utter contempt for Presi-
dent Taft, Governor Harmon. Mayor
Marshall, for the preachers. the Off
cials, the schools. the business men
and everything under the sun. except
himself In one sense 1t was sort Of
refreshing, since 1t was possible for
an open-minded man to hold to more
generous views Of these objects Of the
mans denunciation. When a man
denounces everybody 1t rather lessons
ones objections to anybody. We are
quite certain the impression this man
made was the very opposite Of what
he intended, and that those who lis
tened were much fonder Of Taft, Har-
mon, Marshall and the others when
he got through.

will regard a stone with respect TO it's
fitness for throwing at an vpyect; a
contractor will look upon 1t as being
useful for building purposes: a geolo-
gist will Immediately think OF It's To-
cation in the growth Of the earth.
Thus the state OF mind projects the
idea that surrounds an object. One
sees whet occupies the consciousness.
One Is always seeing himself In what
he sees. And then, by a sort OF a law
Of vision, which we have not time to

A Friendship Cushion.

From a distance 1t had the effect
Of wheel with spokes radiating out
wards, or II one had a poetical turn
Of mind. 1t could have suggested King
Sol himself with all his glory rays;
but on closer examination it resolved
itself into friendship cushion.
My friend explained apologetically
that it was merely an elaboration OF
the old teacloth idea, but the effect
was so good I mentally resolved to
copy 1t as soon as possible.
The cushion cover was made of a
rather coarse linen of a soft green
shade, while the embroidery was
worked in a darker green lustrine,
though naturally it could be copied
in any range OF colors selected by its
maker.
The centre was composed of big

stitches would be merely a matter of
individual taste.
In this circle. inscribed in bold let
ters, were the words, LIE Temps
passs, L'amatie reste," or some other
appropriate motto might be used.
From the centre radisted faint pencil
lines (easily washed out after they had
served their purpose. and the en-
broidery was flnished), and on these
lines my friend had asked her friends
to sign their names.
The signatures were many and
varied. but when embroidered In stem
or outline stitch the effect was re-
markably good and had a far better
result than the inartistic and promis-
cuous scattering about OF names on
the now commonplace teacloths, says
