KEEP YOUR TEMPER
AND BE VERY HAPPY

Remember that when you are right
you can afford to keep your temper,
and when you are wrong you can't Of
ford to lose it.
Although she had more than the
ordinary woman's provocation to
scold, be it said to her eternal honor
that she never raised her voice"
I know a woman who ought to have
that for an epitaph.
And l think it would be an epitaph
to be proud of.
This woman has four vigorous,
healthily mischievous children, two
dogs and very nervous and quick
tempered husband in her household
and yet, according to the testimony OF
all who have visited her, never in the
course of her dealings with any Of
them has she been known to raise her
voice to disagreeable nights.
Nor does this mean that this woman
is the weak, Intellectual sort of person
who simply lies down and lets every
body trample upon her.
On the contrary, her children al
most always mind the first time she
speaks; the two dogs, one of which is
a setter pup-and if anybody knows
anything on earth more thoroughly
obstreperous and habitually impervi-
Ious to control than that, let him in
form me; l don't-obey her as they
obey no one else, and the nervous hus-

New York, april 2S.-A style that IS
deserving of continuation, and which
is accepted gladly by nearly all wo-
men, is the tunic. The tunic affords
opportunity for yelling a skirt This
doubles the color possibilities in a
gown. 1t utilities remnants of differ
ent textures and gives graceful lines
I that all appreciate. Besides softening
a shade of satin beneath or giving bril-
| liant note of contrast in a gown, the
tunic can do something else A short
! length over draDery can successfully
divide line that is judged to be too
long from the waist to the ground.
Then again, tunic can emphasize by
trimming in vertical lines the length
of line. Cords will do this, as also
will slashed sides outlined by lace n
satin or beaded fabric
Yelled and studded or embroidered
with beads, the tunic is in itself sufi-
Gent characterization to the gown. Mar
quisette, wolfe, chiffon, silk and cotton
net and any of the transparent nous
selines de sole are the materials that
have proved their worth as yelling
agents, and viii still serve in the same
capacity this spring.
TUNES, although in many cases
they are considered parts of the
skirt, extend up on the bodices Of
gowns. They veil the upper parts Of
the gowns. Sometimes the blouse OF
bodice is but half draped with the
transparent fabric, but the vogue for
yelling is emphasized in possible way
Laces that form the yokes and cuffs
are yelled with chiffon. Under colored
oDenmeshed fabrics there is used me-
tallic lace, that results in a stunning
effect, entirely removed from the BIZ
zarre The softening treatment is in
disputable in its beautiful effect on
bodices and separate blouses. Brilliant
patches of color can be applied to an
underyoke by means of paint, embroid-
cry or inset pieces of silk, and if prop
erly yelled, the effect is harmonious
Gold and silver tissues are yelled by
lace, gauze or net in all the Access
series which, this season, will be the
important features of a spring outfit
Bags, purses, slippers, have come in
for their share of the yelling. The at
tractive theatre hats are generally
yelled, thereby doubling their beauty.

band is more quickly Gained and ra-
tionalized by her voice than by any
other influence.
| The point is simply this: When the
leverage person gets angry or excited
or disturbed, or wants to emphasize
something or to demand immediate
obedience, he usually raises his voice
and in so doing lets off steam just the
way the steam engine does when it
blows it's whistle.
Now this woman, instead of letting
off steam by shouting, keeps all that
suppressed energy right back of her
even, level tones. The result is that
one gets sense of force from her low
| spoken words far beyond the impress
sion that any shouting could give.
A man who can make a dog mind
without raising his voice
A mother who can make a child
obey without raising her voice
These are two people who almost
always command respect from the i'm
preston of reserve force that they
give.
I'm not sure but that this world
would be a good test for a woman to
apply to lind out if she has a man or
only a dress suit for a lover.
/ Does he Intellectually shout at the
dog whom he would control, or win in
slant obedience by low spoken word ?

= PROBLEMS OF THE BUSINESS =
= GIRL.
A Girl and Her Employer.

(By Barbara Boyd.)

(By BARBARA BOyd.)
A business girl writes that her en-
ployer is beginning to pay her some
trifing attentions, and she does not
know exactly what to do. He has
walked to the station with her, she is
a commuter, after business. He has
made her one or two trifing gifts, and
she wants to know just what she
ought to do, for she says, 81 don't
want to lose my job"
Her letter is not just as explicit as
it might be, but in general, it is wisest
for a business girl to discourage at
tentions from her employer. The wis
est course is never to put herself in a
position where they will be offered
The experienced business woman
knows this and has acquired enough
tact to handle the situation. But the
little, new, business girl with her first
position and her innocent faith in the
goodness of the world doesn't know
the attitude she should take from the
start, and so often finds herself con-
fronted with some such problem as
this without being really in any way
responsible for it,
A girl doesn't need to be stiff or
priggish to keep relations between her
self and her employer purely on a
business basis. She can be pleasant
without ever dropping into familiarity.
She can perform her work cheerfully
and loyalty without the relationship
between them ever shifting from a
business into a social one, she can al
ways maintain in a well-bred way the
distinction. The right kind of man
will respect her for it; the wrong
kind cannot get beyond this barrier.
Sometimes a girl enters the office of
a friend or a friend of the family.
Sometimes she is in the same office for
years and years, and so a little more
intimacy slips in Such circumstances.
of course, change the complexion Of
the relationship somewhat But the
young business girl who is in this Of
fee today, and another one in six
months, will find it best to preserve a
strictly business attitude toward her
employer, no matter what advances he
may make. And if she starts right he
will never make the advances.
This does not mean he will not like
her. He will probably like her all the
more, And if this feeling should deep-
en- into something more serious, as It
has done in many offices, rest assured
II ne is the right kind of man, he will
find way to let her know it, without
IN any way compromising her,
For, generally speaking, it does com
promise a business girl to be seen go
ing about with her employer and to be
known to receive gifts from him. The
world is censorious and critical. The
BUSINESS world is as full Of gossip dsI
Is the social realm; and a business girl
should give no grounds to be gossiped
about even if there is not a word of
truth in what is said. She does not
know what business prospects it may
spoil for her And the right kind ofI
business girl is in business for her
work, and to get ahead She is not
there for social diversion. She isl
there purely for business purposes.
Therefore. it would be well for this
girl to avoid meeting her employer af-

Remedy for Washers

One of the habitual street corner "Willies" got a genuine calling down yesterday about o'clock a the Flor ence corner that he will not soon for get.
 He was of the usual fnsipid type, with the regulation red necktie, high water pants and narrow brimmed hat, and a pose that he evidently thought was very killing
 Two ladies passed along engaged in conversation, while a quiet but deter mined man of medium size walked a little to their rear. As the two ladies passed the Willie boy" he 1eered at them and made remark
 Quick as a flash the gentleman grabbed the ''masher" and in tones that admitted of no argument told him that he had to apologize to the ladies.
 MT. Willie boy took of his hat and offered the apology, abjectly and pro- fusely. With the remark that if it were not for creating a scene he would have administered a thrashing, the gen tleman went his way. while the loafer disappeared in the opposite direction.
