Looking Ahead.

Dear Miss Doom:
Is 1t proper for a girl to accept a
Christmas present from a young man
IL they are not engaged but go out to-
gether every week? Should she give
him one2 II 1t is not proper, would 1t
be all right to inform the young mar
that she doesn't intend to accept one in
case he has an idea Of giving onef
FORLORN.
It's foolish to count chickens before
they're Matched. Do not think Of init
mating that you will not accept a gift
from the young man. Like as not he
would think such a remark was your
method of reminding him that you
wanted one. If you are close friends
there is no reason why o should not
accept a little remembrance from him
and give one In return.

BLANKET COATS.


The long blanket coats, especially de-
signed for motor wear, but which are
used for many other purposes, notably
as a steamer wrap, are extremely sim
pie in lines. Indeed, this is necessary
because of the bulkiness of the ma
terial. The white ones, with belt and
turnover collar Of blue or some of the
pastel shades are quite striking. These
coats are double-breasted. fiat, white

How to Cultivate Tact


TT is generally conceded that tact is a quality which serves u well at all
times and n all circumstances Yet while Ill regard it as a thing to be
u desired, many fail to recognize that 1t may be consciously cultivated. If
we analyze tact we find that it is made up of certaine elements:
A sympathetic knowledge Of human nature, its fears, weaknesses, expec-
tauons n inclnatons.
The ability to put yourself in the other persons place and Ito consider the
matters a it appears to him..
The magnantmity to deny express on to such of our thoughts Us might
unnecessarily offend another. =
The ability to perceive quickly wat is the expedient thing and the Will
ingness to make the necessary concessions.
The recognition that there are mill ms Of different human opinions, o.
which your own is but me-
A spirit of unfeigned kindness u CHI as makes ven N enemy a debtor 10
your. innate good will s-e
A patience that supplants accusation with the opportunity for self-dis-
covery.
A recognition of what is customary in the circumstances and a gracious
acceptance of the situation =
Genteness, cheerfuness and sinceriy-and such variations as the spirit of
these may suggest.

CAUTIONS AGAINST
TOO EASY PRISONS
President Taft Gives Prison
Congress Delegates Bit
of Advice.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 30.-In re-
ceiving the delegates to the Interna-
tional prison congress, president Taft
cautioned them against making prisons
so comfortable as to furnish a motive
for violating the law and also warned
against associating prisoners who
were mere offenders with hardened
law breakers.
The president said that sometimes
when he had visited the prisons of this
government he had thought they were
stronger in theory than in practice. He
said that attorney general Wickersham
who had given some attention to the
matter, would attend the conference
to receive suggestions.
The opening session of the annual
convention Of the American prison
association was held last night, at
which Amos w Butler of Indianapolis,
president of the organization, delivered
his annual address, taking as his sub
ject, "Convicts and Conservation"
The American association will close
its convention Saturday and the open
ing session of the International prison
congress will be held Sunday after
noon. The convention will continue
during the week. For the last nine
days the foreign delegates, accom-
panied by American criminologists,
have been visiting American prisons.
