When Everything GOesWrong
Rr BEATRICE FATRFAx.

"HERE are a number of foolish
old superstitions about the things
that will happen to You if YOU
get out of bed in the morning wrong
foot first or II YOU put on your left
shoe ahead of YOUR right
And there are plenty of people foolish
enough to have a miserably unhappy
day if perchanee they happen to start
it under the handicap of such supersti-
tion. The day IS really miserable, not
lust so in imagination.
The point of the whole tragedy is
that when your mental attitude is
wrong. everything else is likely to be
wrong, too. Look for trouble and you
will have very little trouble in find
ing it.
Suppose you get up in the morning
and rip a few buttons off the shoes you
are trying to fasten in haste The time
you use in sewing them on again makes
you late and you gulp down your coffee
and scald your tongue Next you miss
your car
BY that time you are in the irritated
state of taking il for granted that
everything viii so wrong You arrive
at the office in an unpleasant state of
mind and your own crossness makes
everybody cross TO you in turn Your
work goes wrong. Perhaps you quarrel
with your best friend. II may even be
,
resigning a really good and thoroughly
congenial position.
is All Relative.
Everyone has days like that. DAYS
which. beginning with some little mis-
hap. spread themselves out into a tor
tuous series Of unpleasant happenings
At any stage Of the game in a day
when everything goes dead wrong
a sence OF humor would save the sit
uation. Suppose you stopped and
traced back all your misfortunes to
the simple cause that you managed to
get completely upset over pulling two
buttons off your shoes Wouldn't YOU
inevitably laugh good humoredly at
the though OF what two little black
buttons had managed TO do to great
big you.
Easy To Lose POise.
It is easy to lose your poise, your
