is Just lovely, homelike home. Its
furnishings are rich and tasteful, but

as reporter in New York, broke into
business life and made his million or

SIR JOHN FRENCH'S FRIEND

George Gordon Moore of Detroit,
whose intimacy with Sir John FreNch
has enabled him to be near the firi1g
line since the British expeditionary
force went to France and whose pres
ence there has been resented by some
Of the public men of England, perhaps
is least known among those of his
own community And what is more,
he never has made an effort to attract
public attention, although his opera
tions have been among the most ex.
tensive In America in the last decade
He merged the interests of urban
and interurban lines and built up the
Michigan United Traction company,
with $50 miles Of track, then sold II
to an eastern corporation, incidentally
making millions for himself. Several
years ago he organized a $4,000, 900
water power corporation in Georgia,
and later he amalgamated the Pacific
coast utilities. He also heads great
corporations with extensive interests
in Brazil.

BE KINDER TO YOURSELF
Women Are Often Victims Of Nervous.
ness Because They Don't Know
How to Relax.

One Of the important things to know
In life, especially II you are a woman,
Is how to let yourself alone, writes
Mary Carolyn Davies, in the Mothers
magazine. The ability to relax, the
art OF being judiciously lazy, the tact
to let herself alone has saved many a
woman from nervous breakdown.
We all know the housewife who nags
herself into such state of conscien.
tiousness that she cannot rest. II she
lies down she is continually worrying
herself with thoughts Of the work that
she Is neglecting.
Much of the blame for this state of
anairs lies at the doors of the moth
ers. The mistake Is In their training
OF their children, especially their
daughters. They are taught from ear
Hest infancy to be kind to others, to
bear with them. to forgive them, to
help them; but from birth to death no
one ever tells them to be kind. also.
to themselves.
The woman who nags herself can
make herself more miserable than any.
one else possibly could. She can make
her life more of a nightmare than any
misfortune could possibly make 1t. If
such women could learn to be kinder
to themselves there is no doubt that
their own lives would be heightened;
and not only that, but the lives of
those with whom they come in close
contact would be made far more pleas.
