WOMANLY WISDOM

Some girls would be successful in obtaining a husband if they would remove the hatpin before setting their caps.
 Never wash fiannels in water in which cotton clothing has been washed, as there is lint al ways left in the water that "fulls" the flannel.
 Books, music and good lights may not in crease the corn crop, but they wonderfully in crease the heart crop and that is worth good deal more when it comes to keeping the boys and girls on the farm.
 If your oven does not bake, don't get mad about it and think that the stove is a nuisance. Just clean out the top and bottom of the stove You will be surprised at the amount of soot you will get and how much better the stove will bake
 A week filled up with selfshness and Sab bath stuffed full of religious exercises will make good Pharisee but poor Christian. There are many persons who think Sunday is sponge with which to wipe out the sins of the week.
 It is natural for children to like candy; and good candy is wholesome for them taken at the proper time-which is not between meals. good plan is to serve it for dessert several times a week a few pieces are enough for each child. Used in this way it is not eXtravagant as it saves the making of other desserts.
 There are too many people who are like new teakettle You can pile fire under it, and polish it all you please, but it won't sing; all it will do is to grunt little, and if you take the lid off, it will scald the hand. Isn't that picture of grumpy, surly people who don't appreciate kind ness? Give me the old iron kettle that can sing, and the old jolly people who can sing, also.

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR

Politics is naturally bad, but the people in it are unnaturally worse.
 A heap of nonsense in this world comes from people trying so hard to show its sense.
 People can't save money now staying home, because they can spend it over the telephone

THE HABIT OF CHEERFULNESS

Orison Swett Marden in Successs Magazine: Cheerfulness will attract more customers, sell more goods, do more business with less wear and tear than almost any other quality. Op timism is the greatest business -getter, biggest trader, the greatest achiever in the world. Pes simism has never done anything but tear down and destroy what optimism has built up.
 In the business office, as in society, anywhere, the favorite is always the cheerful person. Good natured, cheerful people do not waste their vital energy as rapidly as the grumbler or the too sober, too sad people. They work with much less friction.
 Good cheer is a great lubricant; it oils all of life's machinery. Shakespeare says:
 "A merry heart goes all the day,
 Your sad tires in a mile-a"
 There is no other life habit which can give such prolific return in happiness and satisfac- ton as that of being cheerful under all circum- stances If the resolution to cultivate cheerful ness is strongly made at the very outset, it will not be difficult to form the cheerful habit and it will be the best protection against suffering and disappointment
 CheerfuIness is also a great producer It adds wonderfully to ones active ability, and in- creases mental and physical power. It makes hosts of friends, and helps us to be interesting and agreeable

fortune, and will be given away abb
solutely free by C. G. Desmond, pro-
prietor of the store. who has arranged
as novel a contest as ever has been
held in Los Angeles, with this as the
prize.
Beginning today, every person who
enters Desmond's will be given a tick
ct and asked to sign register in order
that they may be found readily. That
is all the effort on the part of con-
testants necessary to get chance on
the big machine.
Most contests have as their joker the
provision that a certain amount of
goods has to be purchased before the
chances on the prizes are given. Des-
mond'S contest does not have this fea-
ture. AS Mr.. Desmond expressed it last
evening:
every person who wishes may come
in, register his name and receive q
number emitting him to a chance on
this machine. One does not have to
purchase a penny's worth of goods, ell

The machine is the new 1911 model
Packard limousine, secured by Mr.. Des-
mond from the Packard factory three
months in advance of the regular time
for coming on the market. 1t was
rolled into place in front of the big
store last evening and this morning
is on display for all who wish to in
