WORRY IS CHRONIC FEAR
WHICH PARALYZES FACULTIES
Everybody is afraid.

Everybody is afraid.
II a canvass were made OF all the peo.
pie in the world. doubt If there could
be found one who had not some secret
fear-some worry. For worry is only
chronic fear, even though We seldom
classify II rightly. 1t is fear so well
established that It has become a habit.
1t is common to tell a person that he is
worrying too much, and he will admit
the accusation. but he would recent be-
ing told that he is afraid. What is the
difference? II we analyZe worry, we find
il really is only one phase Of fear. When
we worry we are afarid Of something,
real or imaginary. usually the latter.
Fear ParaIyEes Endeavor.
Fear paralizes all the faculties. 1t par
alyzes the thinking faculties and inca
pacitates person for work. Enthusi-
asm, spontaneity, and self-confdence are
necessary for success in any undertaking
They are all paralyzed by fear. No one
ever achieved any great success who
was afraid. Concentration of efforts is
necessary for success. This is impossible
when the mind is filed with fear. Wor-
ry utterly incapacitates a person for
work
NO one can achleNe success in any line
II he allows his mind to dwell on the
dangers connected with his work. OF
course, this does not mean he should not
observe caution and prudence. These are
not fear. Peary, in his dash for the
pole, observed caution when he prepared
himself with clothing, food, and a mode
of conveyance. But he never would have
succeeded in his undertaking II he had
allowed his mind to dwell upon the pos
sibilities OF accidents that would hold
him storm bound until frozen to death
The great chemists and inventors would

woman who allows her mind to dwell
upon the possibilities Of poverty and mis-
fortune cannot plan her daily work so
as to make the most Of her position.
Children are kept in inferior positions
and do not develop their resources be-
cause Of the fear that is thrust upon
them from babyhood. Think Of child
growing up with the idea constantly
thrust upon him that he has inherited
some grave disease, as cancer, which
certainly will conquer him before he
had accomplished his life work. Some
men have had this bugaboo to fight their
entire lives. It has kept them from
achieving natural success, as they were
afraid that about the time they began to
reap the rewards of their labors they
would be afflicted with the disease, so
the effort of accomplishment did not
seem TO be worth the while. Think what

FL0wERED WHITE TAFFETA

One OF the most modish Of the sum

ANSWERS TO QUERIES

Not Suitable.

Clara-Your mother is perfectly right
is her objection to your going to See
Madam X. While 1t is is wonderful emo
tional play II deals with q sordid drunken
woman. and the tragedy Of her life.
There are too many bright, beautiful
things in the theatrical world which a
young girl may see TO spend hours In
witnessing the unfolding OF the life
stories of depraved women.
C2). Green is always a popular shade
for a parasol, because the tone IS rest
full to the yees.
90 It Is not very polite for a man to
ask a woman to remove her hat in the
theater before the rise OF the asbestos
curtain. This is usually the hats on
signal, and a girl is inconsiderate who
waits until the curtain Is going UP on
the first act OF the play before taking on
her hat.

Servant in Home.

The servant problem would dwindle
rapidly II every mistress would try to
make her servants feel that for the time
being their situation is home
II is not advisable TO overindulge
servants or allow them 10 shirk their
duties. The best way is to speak firmly
but quietly of anything in conduct or
work Of which you disapprove. but avoid
doing so in the presence OF a third per-
ing at table cannot speak in defense
OF themselves or their class. Therefore,
the servant question should be strictly
avoided while they are present.

Yelled Gowns.

Florence-In spite of the wide choice
given IN at-home dresses for more or
less informal wear. there is . strong
bias in favor Of the veiled gown, whose
veilings allow the grace of the wearer
to be appreciated at fits full
The trimmings OF these frocks are very
much a matter for the Individual
There seems an almost equal prefer
ence for rose garlands and lace Bugling
is the most effective for great occasions,
while the dainty flower garlands are
more suitable to gowns for intimate oe-
