HEART AND HOME TALKS
ScrambIirg Through Life.

Some Americans returning from abroad
are prone to ridicule the leisurely way
lie is lived in some places over there.
They, actually close their stores at noon
and take a napr' they say in zones ex-
pressive Of the utmost scorn OF such
unbusiness-like proceeding.
A well-known winter resort in the
South shuts up its stores whenever a
favorite baseball game comes of that
all way go. Northerners residing there
speak OF the practice with amazement.
But is II worth while 20 make mad
scramble for a few dollars more If the
dollars one has are sufficient for his
needs and the time consumed IN getting
more could be spent more enjoyably?
Haven't those people who live lelsurely.
not lazily, but lelsurely, truer idea OF
the real meaning OF. life than those who
scramble from morning until night. from
January / until December 81 for things
,..5r after all have no real value7
A popular novelist has the hero OF one
OF his stories go to the owner Of a store
and ask for 90 cents worth Of work.
The applicant tells the merchant that he
thing he must have, but that he has
enough for all his other needs. The mer-
chant offers him a Sj-a-week job because
he is In need OF a man; but the applicant
refuses II. saying that 50 cents is all he
wants. and why should he spend the
beautiful days for money that Is Of no
particular use 20 him? The merchant
naturally thinks he is crazy.
The writer may have overdrawn his
situation a bit to point his moral But
I II Is quite true that, as a people, we look
upon a man with such views as crazy.
/ Not make money when one can? Not
win fame If 1t IS possible2 Not acquire
a social position il one can secure it? 1t
is the height OF folly 70 turn ones back
/ deliberately on such things
But when one can make all that is
necessary for his needs. the needs Of
those depending upon him. and the neces-
sary provision for tho future, why
scramble for a few dollars more that so
far as their actual use is concerned are
The Washington herald., 1910-04-18

no more than few bits Of wood in the
hand? Why make Of life such a grind
that there is nothing to II but this mad
scramble, no time for the companionship
Of ones family, no leisure for books and
music and pictures, no hours for nature,
no time for travel? From morning until
night II is push and hustle for money.
and night brings such exhaustion that
all the weary worker can do is eat and
sleep like an animal to be ready for the
fray next day This expresses the life OF
many Americans. both men and women
We have come to take a certain pride IN
hustling IN never relaxing for a minute.
Even the English -ustom Of q brief rest
for afternoon tea finds no countenancing
here. II is foolish, we say, TO lose so
much valuable time. Yet when one looks
back upon a life hurried through in this
way there is nothing to gaze upon from
its beginning 70 its end but the arid
waste OF scrambling. There are no
pleasant places in II where one has sat
down and enjoyed the flowers. the blue
friends and family.
Many a woman has given all the real
10Y OF life in a scramble for social posi-
tlon. Others have sacrificed all OF time
ana health and the simple pleasures of
living for fame
It is worth while 10 be able 70 see
clearly what are the things OF life that
are worth having. They are rarely things
one needs 20 scramble for; rather, they
are often lost by this mad scrambhng.
Health is one, and love, and leisure TO
enjoy the beautiful things that life brings
in the world Of nature, in the world of
books. music and art. IN the world OF
the spirit These can all be possessed
without scrambling. They are frequently
missing from the life that has been ruth
lessly spent for money. or position, or
name.
Life is too beautiful, too good. too full
Of enjoyment 10 be scrambled through.
It Is one Of those things that needs 20 be
taken leisurely that tho full Joy Of its
every minute may be extracted.

How to Fold a Dress.

From the Newark Star.
To fold a dress skirt properly for
packing and 20 avoid the crease down
the middle OF the front breadth, fasten
the skirt band and pin the back to the
middle OF the band in front. Lay the
skirt on table or other fat surface,
right side out, with the front breadth
down Smooth out all creases and lay
folds fat. Then begin at the outer
edges and roll each side toward the
center back until the rolls meet. IN

JOHN N. WARD SUES
+ PRES. BAN JOHNSON
Asks $4,000 Damages for Harm
Done in Fight for National
League Presidency.

NEW YORK, July 19.-The suit
instituted by John NJ. Ward. formerly
baseball player. but now New York
attorney. against President Ban john
son. OF the American League. is stu
the topic of baseball circles, especial
ly in view of the fact that Charles
H. Ebbetts, of Brooklyn, Is again urg-
ing Ward as president of the Nation
al League to succeed President Lynch
The fling of the suit for $50. 600
recalls the mitter fight for the Ma
tional League presidency last fall,
when John Heydler. present secre-
tary-treasurer of the league, was the
candidate against Ward. A deadlock
ensued, during which the charge was
made that Ban Johnson and other
American League magnates were un-
duly mixing up In the affairs OF the
National League, in opposing the cleo
ton of Ward, who had been a bitter
antagonist OF the new league, The
National League officials could reach
no agreement so a compromise was
finally reached in the election of Pres
ident Lynch.
In his suit Ward charges that he
was materially hurt by remarks made
by Johnson. The chief article COM
planned about, 1t is stated, is one
which Johnson is said TO have de-
clared he would not serve on the ma
tional baseball commission with
Ward,
