Cure for Discomfort.

Women are taught very wrongly
about love. They are allowed to read
love stories at tender age and to
form a totally false notion Of love
They see themselves as charmers al
q very early age. They begin trying
to captivate, to charm. to enslave the
opposite sex before they are out OF
the nursery. They live. and die
many, many of them-without ever In
the least understanding the truth
about love. or, In fact. about anything
else.
Women are very enyious by nature
There seems to be plenty of 1ustttica.
ton in this one way you look at it.
Why should one woman have luxury.
ease, travel, society and fine clothes
and another woman have only toll and
loneliness and privation? This is a
useless question. We cannot explain
the Inequalities of life, but there Is
an answer to the woman VINO asks
this question. It is this: The more
barren the field the greater the priv.
flege of creation. You have d chance
to see what you can find by way or
JOY and beauty; you have an oppor-
eun1ty to create your own atmosphere.
and it can be a very lovely one IL you
learn the secret of making it So

CHILD is A GREAT THINKER
Juvenile Logic Displayed by the Lite
tie Girl Who Wanted a Baby
Brother.


Those who call children thought
less merely prove that they do not
know the child nature. Children, as
a matter of fact, are great thinkers.
They only seem lacking in thought to
such of their elders as fail to COM
prehend that the childish mind works
differently from that Of the adult. Ju-
yenile logic, for instance, frequently is
faulty judged by groWn-up standards,
but just as frequently it is sound and
incontrovertible from it's own point
of view.
A thoughtful little girl, for example,
recently put to rout her mother,
young widow, by a searching fire Of
questions founded on the request:
ooh, mamma, won't you buy me a
baby brother?"
You won't understand why I can't
do that for you, the mother finally re-
marked, driven into a corner, .tbut lit
tie girls who have no fathers cannot
have little brothers and sisters
Well, it seems very unreasonable"
said the child, after a few moments Of
reflection. Little girls without faith
ers are Pretty sure to be lonely, and
that seems all the more reason why
they should have other children in the
family, doesn't it?''

Pulse Watch.

Among the ingenious devices OF the
physician may be mentioned watch.
constructed on the stop principle,
whereby the number of pulse beats per
minute may be indicated. A push-but-
ton is pressed at the beginning Of the
count and again at the twentieth pulsa-
ton, when the number of beats per
minute is shown on a dial without the
necessity Of calculation. Still another
push on the, button brings the counter
back to the starting point. In the
ordinary method of taking the pulse
the observer is obliged to do two
things at the same time-count the
beats and keep his eye on his watch
