SHARE SECRETS WITH
MOTHER

The moment a girl has a secret
from her mother, or has received a
letter she dare not let her mother
read, or has a friend that her mother
does not know, she is In danger.
A secret is not a good thing for a
girl to have. The fewer secrets that
lie in the hearts of women at any
age the better. 1t is almost test
of purity She was has none of her
own is best and happiest. In girl
hood, hide nothing from your mother;
a little secretiveness has set many
scandal afloat, and much as is said
about women who tell too much, they
are much better off than women who
tell too little.
A man may be reticent and lie un-
der no suspicion, not so a woman.
The girl who frankly says to her
mother: 81 have been there; | met
So-and-So such and such remarks
were made, and this or that was
done" will be sure of receiving good
advice or sympathy If all was right,
no fault would be found.
If the mother knows, out of her
great experience, that something was
improper and unsuitable she will, if
she is good mother, kindly advise
against it's repetition. 1t is only when
mothers discover that their girls are
hiding things from them that they
rebuke or scold
Innocent faults are always pardoned
by kind parent. You may not know,
girls, Just what is right, just what is
wrong yet. You can't be blamed for
making little mistakes; but you will
never do anything very wrong If,
from the first, you have no secrets
from your mother.

ON MISTAKES YOU HAVE MADE
BY BILLIE BURKE.

THE FIRST WORD-Neyer say,
"I did as well as i could under the
circumstances"
At the end of the year almost every
woman takes little stock of her
personal self She thinks over her
mistakes, her blunders. her cowardice
in grasping opportunity. and then
she says, with a sigh, well, l did
as well as | could be expected to do
under the circumstances"
Isn't it good time to rise above
the circumstances that are bNding
you down? v
Isn't it a fact that when you look
over the ground carefully you will
find that many of these circumstances
are the results of your own mistakes
and your own brooding over them?
Don't you magnify your troubles.
Your burdens will only seem heav-
ier every time you stop to weigh
them. You know how much hotter
you feel just after you have looked
at the thermometer on a hot day.
It is just the same when thinking Of
your troubles
OF course, there are some circum-
stances that have to be met square
", such as accidents and illness of
yourself or of those near and dear
to you, and there are some other
troubles over which you cannot al
ways have control. But you must
school yourself to dismiss from your
mind the annoyances that you cam
not overcome and then you can go
