KEEP AN EYE
ON YOUR CLOCK
Advice to the Woman Who
Never Knows the Time.

~ NE of the causes of failure
81 which no one recognizes, as
a rule, is the lack of ''time
sense"
This is a fault more common among
women than among men.
Women carry watches, it is true, but
more from desire for ornamentation
than desire to know the time. AS a
rule. their watches and clocks remain
unWound for indefinite periods. Ask
any woman the time, and generally
she win hesitate or make wild guess.
Most men know the time, whether
they carry watches or not. They in
stinctiveIy notice when they pass
clock.
Women waste more time than men
owing to this habit of not living by
time. They are more apt, especially
when away from home, to go by
guesswork and not to allot certain
hours for certain things
Keeping an appointment with the
average woman is apt to be nova
bic feast. She goes along doing some
thing here, dawdling there, until she
wakes up to find she will be ten or
fifteen minutes or even half an hour
late in meeting her friend.
She does not use any slime judg-
ment." If she has half an hour to
spare shs starts work which requires
full hour to accomplish, work some
times which she cannot break off, but
must finish and which consequently
makes her late for something else.
She is extravagant with her time,
despising ten minutes between two
engagements as being of no earthly
use because it is too small a period in
which to accomplish anything. But
this is a great mistake. 1t is the ten
minutes carefully employed that make
the big showing in the end.
The woman who does not keep a
record of her odds and ends Of time,
who does not know how to fit her
needs to them, is far away from ulti-
mate success. Odd minutes are like
pennies, and pennies wisely employed
mean a fortune.
Every woman who wishes success,
who wishes to accomplish much In
life, should learn clock science and
keep her watch wound up.

THE ELECTION

The results Of the election Tuesday
for congressman and for governors and
other officials in some states are beyond
all reasonable expectations and should
be most gratifying to all men, Demo-
Gratis especially, who have fired of
Rooseveltisln and Of Taftism.
The significance Of the election may
be guaged to the Interpretation of men
but from the Caucasian's reckoning it
is clearly and distinct e~diotion
Of tie Payne Aldrich t;
The Republican party Mt in
every department Of GOV and
with Taft as President, il pledges
of revision Of the tariff which would
operate to some decrease jn the price of
it's of ifs But instead of a
sssyne-Aldrieh in
49, 80 I'd the hardships of the
sses through the enhanced cost Of
living
Having tried and trusted the party in
power, 4 majority of the people have
sought a change which may be deceptive
since the Democrats, If in control of the
House Of Representatives, can provide
little relief from the exactions of the
Republican tariff
At any rate, the majority of the peo-
pie voting at the election on Tuesday
have made manifest not only their dis
appointment IN Taft. but their disap-
proval 81 his course in his official ca
pacity
The significance Of the result Tues
day Is a direct aid emphatic reputation
Of Roosevelt, who while pleading for re-
forms and the taking from the people
the burdens Of the tariff, played the
dual role and was hand-in-glove with
the men Of his party who were and are
the champions Of the Republican tariff
iaiiquity
For once In many years Roosevelt has
been silencsd. He has been hopelessly
discredited. and whatever were his as
pirafions to become the successor Of
President Taft have been totally
eelipsed.
Today Roosevelt IS no greater than
the ordinary citizen of the Republic who
IS well behaved and i striving to earn
a living for himself and his family
While this Democratic triumph is and
should be gratifying, the Democrats
nust exercise discretion and wise nan-
agement if they are to hold control and
tive years hence secure the presidency.
