visions for cleaing the water conduit

Over-Zealous Friends
By Frances L. GarStde

but some of my friends tell me he
has been seen going with another girl"
They may be concerned for her well
fare. They may not be- Ana how is
the girl to know?
"One of my girl friends" writes a
distressed little girl, tells me my
sweetheart is tickle. She says he once
made love to her just as ardently as he
is making it to me. What shall do,
for love him more than my life?"
What can she do? The mischief has
been done in giving to every girl she
knows the right to come to her with
warnings and advice.
If she attempts to let her many
friends select her lover, she will never
have one.
If she refuses to marry until she has
found a man who receives the unqual-
fed approval of Mary and Susie and
Jane, she will be a spinster all her
days.
MOI an unhappy IOl IL plle IL d lSlp-
full contented spinster But one can't
be that with the haunting regret Of
having refused a good man because
Lizzie didn't like his habits, or Mary
didn't like his hair, or Louise called him
triHer.
She will find after she has grown
older and becomes a hopeless spinster,
that she is lonesome. For Lizzie and
Mary and Louise, and all the other girls
who restrained her from marrying. have
married the men of their choice and
gone off and left her.
And It has happened many times. my
dear little friend hampered girl, that
these girls have married the very men
of whom they disapproved to you.
Il have not so many friends that l
shall grow confused among the number
and forget my best Ones" said Nicho-
las Nickleby

smile to thrive And upon its healthy
growth depends your moral and physi-
cal growth.
No girl can be well physically who
hasn't a healthy smile growing up in
side her No girl can be a beauty who
has a faultless complexion, beautiful
eyes, handsome features and a smile
that reflects every selfish impulse.
Not only for ones own sake should
one acquire the healthy habit of smil-
ing, but for the effect one has on 9TH
ers.
1t is the responsibility that no one
escapes. Every one is responsible to
every one else in the world for the in
fiuenCe one has on the world
And by "the world" my dear girls. |

whose magnitude overwhelms you.

your family, your friends, your ac-
quaintances. I mean those whom YOU
meet DAY after day in a social or bust
ness way.
You are responsible to them In a
great degree, for what you are will

be cheerful and smiling.
It is a responsibility no one escape.

THIS is the season when every girl
who has the inheritance nature
planned for her is interested in a
flower garden
1t may be nothing more pretentious
than a window box Or it may be a
round, little bed in corner of a tiny
yard. or it may be as much ground as
she likes.
But whatever the siz9 of her garden,
l am sure that nature the most de-
voted of all teachers, has taught her
that she must not attempt to grow too
many plants in a limited space.
If she makes that blunder she has
no flowers, for the fight for space be
comes a fight for life, and every plant
dies. If any survive, it is those of rank
growth, and for which she cares the
least.
The same wise little girl with her
flower bed is often not so wise in the
cultivation of friends.
She confuses number with popular
ity, and believes that she can be pop
ular only by having a bosom friend in
every girl she meets.
She is crowding her little flower
garden. The result will be that she
has no. friends at all
A girl can not have large number
of friends and be a good friend to all
Of them. The very difference in their
temperaments forbids it.
A few friends are a help. Many
friends become a hindrance In trying
to be kind to so many she is not kind
to herself.
With this friend pulling this way and
another friend pulling that way, she
gets the feeling that she is being pulled
to pieces. What she may prefer can
never be considered if her aim has been
popularity. And I take it it has. or she
would not be the bosom friend Of every
girl she meets.
What she does to please one friend is
the thing that displeases another.
In trying to be a friend to all she
gets the name of being a hypocrite
And to be friend to all she has found
it necessary to so conduct herself that
the charge is not wholly without foun-
dation.
When she falls in love, some Of this
army of friends approve and some dis
approve. The former urge the match;
the latter come to her with tales and
gossip and discourage it.
Every few days l get distressing let
tiers from girls who are in love.
My parents approve" writes one girl.
and her letter has a weekly duplicate.

The Pannier Pantaloon.

The pannier pantaloon is made on an
underskirt slit from the hem about half
way up to the knees front and back
over this skirt is draped a chiffon pan
nier or oVerskirt, but the loops do not
come at the ordinary height, which is
about parallel with the knees. Instead
Of that, all the drapery is dragged
down to the feet separated in two parts,
and forms a regular bloomer effect.
Worn by the woman who makes the
shortest kind of steps, whose move
ments are never hurried and whose
feet are very small, the pannier pan
