PRACTICE OF SELF. CONTROL,
By Mrs. Frank Learned.


In any sphere of life self.control is
an important element toward success
and happiness. Control of mind is
factor toward overcoming the tenden.
to be oversensitive, suspicious, or tor.
mented by imaginary Sights, Moping
and brooding over fancied grievances
will never achieve peace, Sensitive peo-
pie, who take offense easily, are very
difficult to get on with We are never
sure "where to find them, as the
saying is. They are constantly making
exactions Of their friends, calling them
to account for certain dolinquencies.
Social life often requires the max.
ing of concessions the common sense
not to constue the thoughtlessness Of
a friend into an intentional slight, or
observation-disclosures into indifference.
Naturally, we feel that something is
due between intimate friends, but even
in the case of intimacies margin Of
kindly concession is not receiving suf.
ficient attention from others is an un.
pleasant form of egOtism.
The many demands of social life
oblige people not to hold one another
too seriously to account for delay in
calling for instance, Among acquaint.
ouces delay in calling or returning calls
need not be taken as au indication Of a
wish to be exclusive or an intention to
be neglectful Allowances have to be
made FOR the failings of others on this
score, When an acquaintance calls af.
ter lengthy delay it is an important
courtesy to welcome her cordially, not
to alludo to misunderstanding, to has.
ten to accept in the kindcst spirit, any
explanation which may be offered not
to dwell on the subject, but pass ON TO
other matters, and to do this without
permitting the shadow Of a suggestion
that she mas been dilatory. II is wise
for the person making n delayed call
not to be too profusc in excuses.
While the casting out of frctful
grievances is of Importance in daily
life, control of temprc is rule Of
life to be practiced by every wen.bred

cited and to remember TO close door
gently. 81 never knew any one who
went about banging doors aud playing
whirlwmd to possess any influence
whatever said a wise woman.
The practice Of sclfcontrol and com.
posure will have an immense effect ON
ones own manners and will be sure
to make a pleasing impression every.

When photography first began they
used wet plates and u sitting required
eight or nine minutes. A man once
went to be taken, and the photogra-
pher put in his wet plate, demanded
perfect lmmoblIity and took OFF the
cap.
During the long exposure the pho
tographer left the room moment 0u
his return everything seemed to be go
Ing all right. But when the exposure
ended and he rushed to his closet to
develop the wet plate there was moth
ing on it but blur.
Very much disgusted, he showed this
blur to the sitter.
"YOu must have moved" he said.
The sitter looked at the spoiled plate
and laughed in amazement.
"Well, declare" he said; who'd
have thought that just running over to
the window for a minute to see a
drunken man would have done all
that? sat right down again. Min.

Badness.

Men get bald more frequently than
women, according to Or, Guelpa Of
Paris, because they wear hard, heavy
hats, they cut their hair too short and
they eat more than women. Dr. Guel.
pa says the scalp is like soil and the
hair like the vegtation that grows upon
1t, When the scalp is neglected the
hair does not grow and its roots die,
just as grass dies when the soil Is
poor. A heavy, hard hat constructs
the blood vessels that nourlsh the
scalp. Clipping the hair short leaves
its tender roots ut the mercy Of cold,
heat and dust, The oil that exudes
from around the roots OF the hairs and
keeps them nourished is coagulated by
the cold and chokes up the matrix in
which the hair is formed.-New York

MUDDLE GREAT OVER
ACTING MAYOR PROBLEM
According to Rigdon, Whoever Is Nam
ed Can Do Nothing Except When
Council Is in Session.

The city of Salem is without mayor
at the present time, and will continue
to be without chief executive until
such time as the council meets again or
when Mayor Sleeves return home, ac-
cOrding to the city charter.
When Mayor Sleeves placed himself
on the outside of the corporate limits
of the city the fore part of this week,
he left tie city mayorless according 10
Councilman RigdOn, and under the pres
ent city charter there can be quail
fled acting mayor only at such time
when the members of the city council
meet in regular or special session, there
even beiug a doubt as to the qualifica
tions of any member of the council act
ing as mayor at special or postponed
meeting.
Cant Transact Business
If what Councilman Rigdon says i,
true, and he bases his opinion upon the
provisions in the city charter, no ordi.
nance can be signed, contracts approved
or any other official business transact
ed by the council until that body is in
regular session and an acting mayor
elected at each session. Mayor Sleeves
is now in the east and will be gone six
weeks and, according to the present
state of affairs, it will be up to the
council to hold six elections and elect
either six different mayors, or choose
the same member at each election tn
preside over the meetings.
Relying upon Mayor Sleeves state.
ment in regard to his being "punched
several localities are inclined to believe
that there will be some merry times at
the next six council meetings and that
certain parties will "cOme back" when
the occasion arises. 1t is said that the
friends of Councilman Rigdon are lay.
ing plans to put the kibOsh upon the
members who are alleged to have dou-
ble-crossed the alderman from the sec
ond ward by Ousting him after electing
him acting mayor and selecting Alder
man Siegmund to fill the office.
Mayor Fails to Appoint.
When Mayor Sleeves left Salem, he
neglected to appoint anyone to act for
him during his absence and it is said
that for this reason, it is impossible for
the members of the city body to select
mayor to serve during the time the
elective officer is away.
1t will be interesting to note what
will result in the event the mayors sig |
nature is required on a contract or lie.
gal city document some time during the
middle of the week. There will be no
one vested with the legal right to sign
such articles only when the council |
meets and as there are many matters
of Importance which come up between
meetings which require the personal at.
tention of mayor, there will undoubt.
edly be some warm arguments take
place during the next six weeks.
