She can hardly be competent to
Judge SO sweepingly as all this. Many
persons adopt q rather light manner in
order that they may not bore people
by their overintense view of them
selves.
This degree of self-centered existence
is often a far more serious flaw than
many of the lesser evils. 1t argues an
inverted attitude n a too palpabie
self approval. 1t suggests a smugness,
and consciousness of merit, than which
nothing can be more hurtful to mind
and character generally.
Nothing can prove more of a de-
terrent in the achievement of success
even a partial success.
This is very plain talk, but nothing
can quite meet this particular form
of density, except a thorough arraign-
ment.
We can none of us assume that oul
own way is all right, and that of Others
all wrong. We can only view 1t as w'
see it, and as we know u owl en-
vlronment, Influences, training, etc;
To live by set rule, avoiding irregular
hours or idleness, is a good plan, bu
much more than this is needed for RICH
living, which in itself can never b'
entirely negative. We cannot hold ava,
from all who do not hold our own view'
and retain a good balance.

We must learn to tolerate and bear
and ompare and learn from others.
Isolation from our own kind cannot
invite anything but a too s~elf-concen-
trated heart and soul. Human SYM
pathy, brotherhood and neighborly love
are the trinity that leaven life--that
short journey that we take together,
helping one another, forgiying one an
other and never assuming a coat OF
i~mpregnable perfection.
There are many faults too mall to
consider that are unbalanced in time
by the better qualities, although they
ma seem to predomtnate.
Harsh judgment and unkindness are
dangerous cunkers. One who finds 1t
necessary to dispense with a friend be-
cause of a fault or a few faults is lack
ing in heart, in generosity. Such Il
tendency becomes actually hideous as
life goes on. Such people often, sadly
unconscious, fnd themselves alone and
disliked and wonder why.
The frivolous and the idle are often
aware of their lacking qualities and
may be helped by a little kindness,
They are never sel~f-complacent and
sometimes they astonish everyone by
the depths of sacrifice of which they
are capable.
To stand off II wonder. what Is the
best for ourselves is n poor way to take
life, and what may appeal more to the
over-serious ones 1t is an injurious way.
Each individual had to radiate this
goodness, giving it out on all sides.
When 1t was not radiated the star cham
neis became clogged and c~ongealed and
soul growth, life, happiness ceased.
This idea may make it plain to all of
us who suffer from the ~introverted at
titude-just how we must live in the
world among those OF our kind-all OF
the same family. We canEo shut our
selves up in "a secluded perfection or
what we deem perfection. We must not
be too good for our world IL we would
be healthy, happy and loved. Such
ideas IS this positively deform the fea-
lures and draw the lips into straight
unlovely lines-a danger signal to those
we meet along life's way.
Such a woman especially becomes
marked for the most abject and pitiful
isolation, for sympathy n love are a
part of her nature.
Men escape these results in a thou
sand ways, but a woman must not let
her soul grow encrusted, for by degrees

HOW TO PREVENT DANDRUFF.


Dandruff is not always a forerunner
of badness, but it dandruff is per-
mitted to remain on the scalp it affects
the roots of the hair. making the hair
dun in color, dry and likely to come
out when combed or brushed.
Any good shampoo removes dandruff,
hut it will form again in a day or two
if the scalp is not in a healthy id
ton. To give the scalp and hair health
and vitality 1t is necessary to use a
rood hair tonic once or twice a week.
To make an excellent hair tonic at
home get from our druggist one ounce
of beta quinol and one-half pint al
.cohol: mix with one-half pint warm
water. If preferred, the ounce of beta
quinol can be mixed with a pint Oh
bay rum. 1t is the beta qninol thai
nourishes the hair ~follicles, and makes
the hair long, abundant and glossy.

and a moment later, as she
unattached the door, a fat man with a

pushed forward into the room where
the lovers were waiting. Two bury
policemen followed him.
"Ah!" exclaimed Gibelin with a ges-
ture OF relief as his eye fell on Kit

said: "I am from headquarters. j am

"You must come with me. I have q

showed the PAPER.
But Alice staggered forward. 'Why
do you arrest him? What has he
done?"
The man from headquarters answered
Struggling his shoulders: Il don

"Murder!' echoed the sacristan's wife

Alice looked at him steadily for q
moment and then in q low voice she
spoke the words that were pressing
on her heart: what nave you done?'
"There's no use going into that" he
answered unsteadily. 81 can only ask

While they were talking Mother

"A VERY intelligent young woman,
"A perhaps we might say over
intelligent, writes that in her efforts
toward ,right living and the serious
study of a serious profession, she has
found that by degrees she has been
forced to dispense with various friend
ships tina were pleasant, but hurtfui,
as she deemed, in their influence.
She at first tried to ARRANGE her
life,', so she writes, in such o manner
that two dearly loved friends would
suffice, but circumstances took these
friends away to other. cities, and now
she lives o lonely life without h slim
ulant of sympathy n human COM
partnership,
The difficult question h puts is
whether such a life is better than one
in which she would continue to take
the risks of acquaintanceships, which
would probably mean loss of time n
a break in her habits of studious work,
which are not conducive to light COM
p~anionship, which she describes as
frivolous"
This question in itself and in its
wording betrays a lamentable and silt
ed attitude on the part of the writer.
1t is entirely too self-conscious to be
mentally wholesome, and there is con-
siderable vainglory about this tre-
mendously serious point of view.
From q young schoolgirl it might be
excused. From a young woman who
has advanced in the study of q pro-
fession it Is a confession that the very
.aloofness, in which the writer holds
herself from her kind, has already re-
suited in a certain lack of human UNI
d~erstanding.
without ever knowing the depths OF
~frlvolity or idleness disapproved OF In
the discarded friends, it is quite safe
to say that the point of view taken by
anyone who boldly and badly declares
her actions, ideas and rules of living
to be entirely without flaw. is a mis-,
taken one
She also condemns too utterly the
companions whom she describes as
idle, frivolous, light-minded.

France is a land of infinite red tape

person thar M. Simon, the chief Of po-
lice, round-faced and affable, a brisk,
dapper man whose ready smile had led
more than one trusting criminal into
regretted condolences.
And o little later came M. Hauteville,
the judge in charge of the case, a cold.
severe figure, handsome in his younger
days. but soured, it was said, by social
disappointments and ill-health. He
was in evening dress, having been sum-
moned posthaste from the theatre. Both
of these officials vent over the case
with the commissary and the doctor,

up his report. And already Gibelin
