TDO not believe that any one takes
the past more tragically than
those who have had very little
of it.
As we grow older we grow more
| philosophical, and the mistakes of the
past become lights by which we avoid
mistakes of the future
1t is when we are still young that we
regard a mistake as fatal, and particu-
larly do I believe that this is character
istic of young girls.
They offend and lose a friend.
Thenceforth, they think. they are
doomed to go through life friendless.
They save little money. perhaps.
and lose 1t. Never, they believe will
they be able to save any more.
They have a sorrow; they can't see a
day so far ahead that contains its JOY.
They lose a lover. Straightway they
picture themselves going down the slope
of life alone and unloved
Youth, which has so much TO hope
for, also takes its Disappointment so
grievousy to heart that hope is soon
est exhausted.
They have not learned to label every
failure, every disappointment, every
grievance as an EXPERIENCE.
That they must learn They must
know that the loss Of a friend, the per
fidy of a lover and all the disappoint-
ments of material gain are so many
valuable lessons. without which the flu
ture would be more hopeless.
The girl who mourns for a day that is
lost as if it were a life that is ended is
not an extraordinary creature
If the smile is better understood, let
us put Youth in a swing. 1t swings to
the extent of the rope, first this way
and then that way. IT. is when the
swinging is nearing the end and we let
the old cat die" that the one in the
swing no longer swings to the extreme.
1t is when Youth mas fled and the
Years have come that one is never hope
lessly sad nor uncontrollably gay.
Phillips Brooks must have been
thinking of unhappy youth when he
said that the only way to get rid of a
past is to make a future out of it.
The older realize it, and value every
disillusion and disappointment. The
younger have yet to learn it, and the

keep the feet in splendid condition and
make the skin so nice and soft that
corns and callorses will never be al
lowed to form.
But, when all is said and done, I
think that I get the best results from
the oil taken with my food. l wonder
why it is that we don't cook more with
oil, and use so much lard or butter in
stead. Italian cooking is delicious, and
they use quantities of oil, which gives
their food delightful taste. never
found when lard or ordinary butter is
used And, goodness knows, most cook
ing butter is ordinary. 1t oughtn't be
called butter at ALL
Olive Oil, taken internally or rubbed
on the skin, is very good for creaking
ionts-and you know that young girls
have creaking joints and worry about
them a great deal more than the aged
90. Sometimes if you should hear a
row of girls bending their knees it's al
most like a lot of little firecrackers 60
ing off.
This happens especially in winter
| time I don't know why, but it does,
and olive Oil is the cure for that, too.
My beauty treatment is not very ro-
mantle, l am afraid, but l am sure that
it is one of the best and in a small can
of pure olive oil you have the cure for
all kinds Of troubles.

what seems now in the exaggeration Of
youth to be an accumulation of failures
and mistakes.
1t is something to have known, even,
that a lover proved not pure gol6. but

to the train and hear the music, see
the business men and incidentally get
some of the souvenirs, the ch ildren

Great Falls men are promoting has

the people of both places, it seems,
