| Black Mountain and they will get it
at dawn"
Now the goblin knew that these
fairies must have their paints, for if
| they did not, the woods on the opposite
side of the earth would have to go
without any green, and the would be
something terrible. So he grabbed up
the paint pots, and, kissing his wife,
flew out of the door, saying he would
be back before dawn.
The goblin had not been gone over
an hour when the wife began to grow
restless and thirty, but she could not
rise to get a drink of water. In each
of the flowers there was plenty of it,
standing on their soft petals in shin
ing drops, but they each refused to
allow the little elfin woman to share
their portion.
Il Cannot give you my water" said
the rose haughtily. ut is all / have,
and l may need it before the goblin
returns" The other flowers talked
in the same way. There they all stood,
proudly swaying in the warm air and
the water drops twinkling in the light,
but not one would give a drink to the
poor little sick goblin wife.
No, there was one-one humble,
pale blossom that seemed almost
afraid to speak. But it held its head
up bravely at last, and, bending down
so the cool drops fell on the hot lips
of the little goblin, it trembled with
pleasure at seeing the look of gratitude
in her eyes. The water refreshed her
SO that she sat up, feeling much bet
ter Then, as the goblin did not come,
she grew weary again.
Now the poppy knew that down in
the center of its heart was tiny drop
of soothing liquid which would make
the pain and WEAKNESS go, so it bowed
again and said in a low voice:
Squeeze the liquid out of my hea1
into your mouth and you will sleep
well, waking refreshed"

, come fast rooted and grown apace, so
that its off-shoots overrun the whole
garden, usurping space which should
be occupied by more beautiful and
popular plants. And it is just the
some with grievances.
Some little thing hurts us, some
thing of omission or commission, some
trivial word Or act on the part of a
relative or friend maybe, some neglect
or sighting treatment.
Possibly at the moment of its occur,
renee we are conscious OF a passing
hurt, but otherwise think little about
it. But afterwards-Ah! When we
have time for thinking, We recall the
thoughtless words or trifiing neglect,
and brood over it until it is magnified
to incredible proportions.
Then very shortly we lose all sense
of proper perspective, and our whole
world gets out of focus Instead of
dominating our grievance, we allow it
to dominate uS-than which there
never was or is a greater mistake.
Instead of looking it full in the face,
and convincing ourselves of our own
folly, we weakly allow it to rule our
lives and actions, to the misery of
ourselves and others.
The wise woman will cultivate a
spirit OF optimism which scars beyond
the minor Sights and grievances of
life. And in so doing she will solve
the problem of happiness.

How much happier the world would
be, individually and collectively, if
each one of us stopped growing griev-
ances and tried forgetting instead,
For there isn't any doubt that most
of us are far too ready to cultivate
grievances instead of striving our
hardest to crush them down into moth
ingness; and there are few things
which need so little encouragement
to flourish well.
Just think for a moment of some
grievance which has doomed particular
ly large in your own life-perhaps
something which is overshadowing
your whole life at this very moment.
Try to trace the troublesome thing
back to its source and you will be
wOnder-struck to realize that such a
mighty and finely rooted grievance
has sprung from such an infinitesimal-
ly small trouble.
Grievances are to our lives just
what urgly destroying weeds are to
gardens. They work endless havoc,
and if we don't eradicate them in time.
their work will be irretrievable and
devastating.

WOMAN'S PART IN
THE NEWS TODAY
TO TRY SOCIETY SOUP SUIT.

st. Louis, Mo-, June S.-Whether or
not the spilling of hot plate of soup
down a lady's spine would induce
tuberculosis is the intricate medical
question that comes up tomorrow for
settlement in the Circuit Court. The
soup splitting is a society matter, and
it occurred at a social function at the
aristocratic Buckingham Notel. Mrs.
Grace L. Hanger of this city, wife of
DR.. w NJ. Hangen, was the victim of
the soup incident, and she is suing
the hotel owners for $4,000, claim
ing that she contracted tuberculosis
as an indirect result of burns she suf-
fered when a waiter spilled hot toma-
to bouillon down her back.
Interest in the case has been
aroused through preliminary deposit
tons taken by lawyers in the case.
Forty members of the Rotary Club
were called as witnesses, but the
main evidence was by physicians.
The banquet of the Rotary Club a
year ago last December was the scene
of the soup-spilIing. Mrs Hangen be.
came hysterical when the hot soup
splashed down her back. Her back
and shoulders were blistered, accord
ing to witnesses, and the soup spoiled
her evening gown. Others furnished
testimony that the soup was hot.
