them up at every chance that the passer-

place she becomes so busy loking for
defects that she quite overlooks the
splendid and beautiful things her friends
say and do and think.
The woman who finds no good In any
condition, or in other folk. is utterly
wretched herself. She narrows down in
her own life to petty fault-hnding
circle which she follows through an IN

bore and a depressing influence, as a

OFF gradually until she has none.

one life rule which I have never known
her to break.

After all, the keynote Of any woman's
popularity is kindness OF heart. The wo-
man of whom the little girl said that
she always had something nice to say
OF every one was p rompted in the
formation of this habit by a sincere
kindness of heart. The girl with whom
L went through college was famous for
the real gentleness and kindness OF her
nature.
1 have known women who were gen.
erous. who were always willing to Of
fer their services to others in times OF
sorrow or of need. yet who would In
variably make II a point to speak Of
the faults OF the very folk TO whom
they were good whenever half an oppor-
tunity offered itself.
Never mind what folk give US: never
mind If they are generous or stingy
with their worldly goods: never mind
If they fail me in every other way. so
long as they do not fail to tell what they
know that Is good about me. and re-
ligiously overlook the things that l may
lack.
The truly generous heart Is proven by
a truly charitable tongue. The woman
who is big mentally and morally will
look for the good, find It and pass II on
The woman who has a soul no broader
than your thumb and a weakened acrid
heart will find your faults. no matter
how deeply they are covered with your
good qualities. and when she has found
them will strip them bare and show
them of to the world as an amusing
specimen of human nature.
Never trust the woman who finds no
good in any condition. Never cultivate
her friendship, for she has so trained
her eyes, her heart, and her mind that
they will be blind to the best you have
TO give. and always wide awake to your
imperfections.
