NFMRER OF

Assert yourself.

Assert yourself
Self assertion is the powder in the
gun behind the charge. 1t is the dy.
manic that urges men into the places
where they belong.
1t is well to be modest and courteous
and all that, but
Remember that your two shoes have
Just as much right on the pavement as
the two shoes Of the millionaire.
1t is neither necessary nor safe to
push others OF the thoroughfare, but
take heed lest some one shove you
aside even when you take the right
hand side of the road.
You may be courteous and tactful,
but you must get on!
Ordinarily the crowd Is good humor-
ed and gets out Of the way Of the fel-
low who keeps going. Says the crowd:
Here is a man who is bound some
where, and he is In hurry. Let's get
out of his way"
But
Sometimes the crowd may be OBJ
streperous, and. though you make a
flying wedge of yourself. 1t refuses to
bulge. Wait a bit Soon the crowd
will tire or forget. and you may get by
without a murmur.
And
Should you perforce happen to be
knocked down by the crowd in its
rush, get upi Get up and brush the IN
suit from your garments and do not
complain Of the rudeness of the popu-
lace. Like you. brave fellows, others
are looking for bread and butter and a
rooftree. Smile-and get up! And
above all
Once you begin to be cowed by the
mob, once you begin to shrink from its
rough embraces, you are a goner.
II some one. assertive, successful
pushing. elbows you aside in spite Of
your best efforts to hold your own.
why
Brush that insult OF your vest
Never let it get down as deep as your
undergarments. Do not whine or cuss
Doubtless he who went over you got
like treatment when he was where you
are.
Pull down your vest and go on!
Do not misunderstood. You are not
spelling for fight If so, you shall
readily be accommodated. There Is no
chip on your shoulder. But, conscious
OF your ability to make good in the
scramble. willing to do your share OF
the worlds work. you demand a place
on which to stand until you get fair
chance.
Your Job will not hunt you. You
must be the hunter.
Therefore assert yourself. Face the
music. Stand stiff legged and let no
mortal frighten you.
And keep pushing.

DAY LIGHT MAPS

Thousands of women are far too
busy ever 10 think of taking a nap
in the daytime. They would laugh
at the suggestion were it made TO
them. When one tells these busy
women that they are nervous and in
need of repose, and that they may
preserve their youth, strength and
charm by taking regular rest by
daylight, they shake their heads and
smile with pity on the foolish advis-
ers. If a woman's occupation is that
of a cashier. clerk or stenographer
she has no choice except to devote
herself to the task in hand and ig-
more the fact that she is weary I'M
Ii. the allotted time of work is over.
If she is a mother with little chill
dren making all sorts of demands,
she knows very well that her at
tempt at daytime sleep will probably
prove a failure. There are great
many "ifs" that present themselves
as obstacles of an insuperable nature
when tired and busy women try to
secure intervals of rest in the morn
ing or afternoon. Yet 1t is true that
where there's a will there's a way"
Five minutes or ten minutes level
rest on a sofa will work wonders
when one is weary, If only there is
perfect relaxation from tension.
The best choice for a daytime nap
varies with the individual. Sometimes
il is well to select half hour be-
tore luncheon. Food is more easily
digested and assimilated when the
body has had a period of rest THAI
when one comes to the table with
depleted brain tissue. II the nervous
energy has been very strongly taxed
and is nearly exhausted before eat
ing, dyspepsia may be the resulting
consequence. To lie down immediate
ly after a meal is not SO good a plan
as TO delay doing so until an hour
OF more may have passed.
Those who have the care OF little
children ought to insist on their hay
ing time to sleep by daylight. The
mother of child not much over two
told a friend that she did not al
low her little daughter TO take a
nap through the day, because she
wanted to put her TO bed at six
o'clock, and be sure that she would
steep all night. The child was high
strung and fretful, thin and pallid,
and though she slept all night as her
mother wished. she was neither rosy
nor plump, nor yet good-Lumored
during the day. The rapidly develop
ing brain was not receiving its pro-
PER amount OF repose. Until a child
is seven or eight years old the wise
mother will encourage the habit OF
lying down for a while every day in
the dark, with eyes shut. whether
sleep come or stay away.-Chrls-
tan Herald.
