GOOD IDEA TO RADlATE Joy
Injunction to keep Smiling" 10 One
q the Best That Mankind Has
to Recolleet.

Cultivate your smiles INCREASINGLY,
girls. This does not mean that you
must sit around subway trains and
street cars wearing an insipid grin.
Not at all! 1t does not even mean
that you must actually smile In the
literal sense of the word. But your
expression can be smiling without
your lips being parted at all. II you
are thinking about pleasant occur.
rences your mouth will turn up at the
corners and your eyes will sparkle,
quite naturally and without any ef.
fort.
This will keep your face attractive
and youthful, even when you have
passed the borders of youth itself. II
you wish to retain your beauty as long
as possible. don't form the habit of let
ting your lips drop and all your face
muscles sag downward when your face
is in repose.
Just stand before the mirror and
pull your lips down to get the effect
Draw your mouth down and scowl a
bit and you will see just how ugly
those dropping lines can make you
look. Then smile, not artifically but
naturally, just a little around the lips
but great deal in the eyes and you
will see how pretty you can appear.
II every woman realized how much
harm she is doing to herself when she
sits in the street cars and subways
with her face muscles all relaxed and
dropping she would try the smile cure
for ugly lines. The smile can bring
about magical results in lifting girl
from the ranks of plainness to the
heights Of actual beauty.-Pittsburgh

WHY CARLSON
BECAME GOVERNOR

Why was Carlson elected governor
In the fall Of 1914? Tie answer Is
self explanatory. In 1914 the state
house gang. then n power. had con-
ceived the idea that they were dn-
vincible and that the Democratic vot-
er of the state would obey their man.
date without question. This wanton
Disregard for the peoples rights. by
forcing upon tie ticket those who
had fought the ticket in bygone days,
led to a division in dts ranks, and
many Democrats, as the result prov
ed, must have cast their vote for
Carlson in defiance OF the then state
house ring.
The prohibition question was then
a paramount issue. and Carlson seiz-
ing this as powerful leverage, es-
poused the cause. and upon this IS
sue. assisted by 10000 Progressive
votes, and many Democratic votes
who would not stand for the rank
hypocrisy of this contingent, rode
NltO power.
But how different is the situation
today. Carlson has proven himself
not big enough for that great office,
in many ways and ras disgusted theI
Progressives, as well as all his Dem
ocratic friends, and with an able can
didate for governor the Democratic
party is thoroughly united, and ready
to go before the voter IN a winning
campaign with nothing to fear, un-
less the Progressives put forth their
candidate for governor, Clarence p.
Dodge, of Colorado Springs, who is
the only man the party las cause to
fear.
The prohibition question is now a
settled fact, and Governor Cardson's 8
two years OF weakness as an execu-
tive, has convinced the Colorado vot-
er. that for the success Of the state,
and all her industries, another must
be chosen with executive ability.

Crimean War,

Russian encroachment upon Turkey
was the direct cause of the Crimean
war. For many years previous to 1853,
Russia had cast covetous eye upon
Constantinople and the sultan's pos
sessions and had contrived in various
treaties to lay the foundation of a
claim to something like q protectorate
over the Christians Of the Greek
church in Turkey amounting to three
fourths OF the sultan's subjects in Eu-
rope. AS early as 1874 Emperor Mich
olas had proposed to divide with
Britain the inheritance of the "Sick
Man," as he called Turkey, and in
1853 he began to urge his claims In a
form which Turkey could not accept
without ceasing to remain an inde-
pendent state. The other great pow
ers intervened as mediators, but in
vain. and meantime a Russian army
took possession of Moldovia and Wal
lacia. After nearly a year Of fruitless
diplomacy. negotiations were broken
OF. and Britain and France agreed to
support Turkey by armed interven-
tion. War was proclaimed against
Russia on March 2S. 1854. The war
thus undertaken lasted two years.

THE BONDAGE OF FASHION

In this day of woman's greater
freedom. of broader interests and nc
tivities, is it not strange that we
have not gained more liberty, more
independence in the matter OF dress?
We all have cur moments of re-
sentiment and rebellion over the ty-
ranny of clothes, but how little has
our resentment and rebellion accom-
plished. And no doubt this bondage
OF fashion will be the last bondage
We will escape, because it is a femi-
nine bondage created for woman by
woman, and isn't it queer, we who
have stood shoulder to shoulder in
our fight for other causes have never
been kind to each other in the mat
ter of dress? We have rivaled and
criticised each other in the matter
of dress-aleo feared each other. So
our enemies are ourselves in our own
camp. With all our freedom and in
dependence in many things we are
still slaves to our clothes. Can't we
escape this bondage by being less
critical of the garments of Others, and
less fearful of criticism for our own?
Would it not be well for us to cul-
tivate our love for beautiful fabrics.
appreciation of graceful lines, sense
of harmony and personal fitness in
our dress rather than our blind fol-
lowing of fashion makers caprices.
Again would it not be possible for
us to have our clothes made so they
might be easily put on, and most i'm
portant Of all, so that our gowns
need not be altered tco quickly?
Simple reforms these would be, yet
would make a difference in the COM
fort, and they would save our time,
our nerves and our purses.
Whatever we decide to do, one
thing sure We can do now. and that
Is let our slogan be, Goods made in
America for me!"-Women's Page.

the sweetness from their perfume

oak-for It was now an oak-"but

grow"
So II kept on growing. The trunk.
went up straight, the bark got thick.
the branches reached out wide and
were covered with handsome leaves.
The birds and squirrels seemed to-
love the friendly tree and made their
homes in its shade.
But the locust did not grow. Il
was getting old and its scraggy limbs
broke of and Uttered the ground. One
day the farmer came into the woods
with an Ak.
This old locust never was any
good" he exclaimed. "All It did was
to have few blossoms and then there
was lot of dead limbs dropping aAJ
about. It was Just silly thing en-
cumbering the ground. But It will
make fine fire for the kitchen stove,
After while two more men came
with big saw. This is a fine oak"
said the farmer, 'and we will make It
into timber for masts OF ships. It
grows tall, straight and strong with
out flaw" =
Then the great oak, which had oncs>
been tiny acorn. was glad-glad It
had kept on growing. glad It was to.
be Of use in the world. It would be-
made into tall masts that would hold
sails and help the boats speed over
the water: It would see far-off lands
and strange people. It would race OF
through the suns and storms. through
the moonlight and SHOWS. over the
dancing waves bearing great freights
