The Road TO Thankfulness
4 THANKSGIVING HINT
eY Or. FRANK CRANE
Copyright. 1915 by Frank Crane)


ThanktulneSs is an attitude of mind.
1t is another name for happiness. When
one is happy one is thankful, and vice
versa.
TO be thankful simply means that one
thinkS ne is better off than he deserves
10 be. And this leads us to the great and
luminous truth that happiness is not Il
thing at all, but is the relation between
our condition and what we think our
condition ought To be, between what we
nave and what We conceive to be cur
deserts.
II that be SO, then the road to happi-
ness ought to lie very plain before all Of
uS. It Is. to change our thought instead
OF trying to change our things
Here Is the situation My house is
not fine enough my food is not plentiful
enough, my clothes are not expensive
enough. my wife is not handsome enough.
my neigilnors are not agreeable enough,
my BANK account is NOT large enough.
5ud SO on. Hence, ] an unhappy say
don't see what | hava 20 be thankful
or | worry ana stew and am generally
miserable
Now To cure this state of things | can
proceed in one Of two ways CD can get
finer house, better food prettier
Nifc, more money and the like or (2) |
an change my notion about what de-
serve
The FIRST method is followed by the
fool, the second by the wise.
For several reasons
l. You can always change your idea
D, your deserts, and YOU cannot always
get more and better things.
>. If YOU start getting more things
YOU generally find that your opinion Of
your deserts rises along with them in
fact usually keeps few leaps ahead, 50
that your resultant state OF dissatisfac-
ion remains constant. about the same,
The last thing the average person will
admit, however, is that the cause Of his
unhappness lies within himself He is
very willing 10 address himself 70 the
question which forms one of Mr. Gilbert
NUeNltIloH = .llllfN, W nat w fonR Win
the World but rather resents it if you
suggest the topic. Whats Wrong with
Ne"
For all that, the gentle reader is rec
commended. If he cares TO find the short
and straight road to happiness. TO lock
himself up in his room alone and whitte
iown his conception of what he ought to
have
He can get more happiness out of one
lour's exercise at this than he can get
,dt Of years labor at increasing his
pile Of goods or improving his environ
nent.
Regulating ones self will probably
never be popular indoor sport, but for
all that it's the most profitable, much
more SO than regulating the universe, or
he country, or the laws Of ones rela-
tions.
The road to thankfulness lies thru
our own soul.

logical place for state medical school

is evident from the financial traits m
which the school now finds itself.

CHANGE AT PRISON
WOmen's Quarters Moved to
Farm Outside Yard.
"HoteI BisselP' New Name of
Old Crank House.

Leavenworth, Kan, June RE
Gently there was a grand opening at
the Kansas penitentiary, but it wasn't
to invite the general public to the in
side or to let any of the prisoners out
side; it was just the beginning of a
new department in the penal insti-
tuition.
This department is for a new wO-
mems quarters, which has been es-
tablished in the old farm house on
the hill about three-Quarters or mile
from the penitentiary proper on the
banks of the big Muddy" With the
Innovation of the new women's quar-
tiers, several other changes have been
made at the state prison, which have
men prisoners, who belonged TO the
greatly improved conditions, and Will
eventually mean a big saving to the
state.

With the taking away of the federal
government there are only sixteen re-
male inmates and they are very COM

although on moving day every one OF
them was mad as wet hens, SO TO
speak, because they had to De ols-

Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much a1kali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsified
cocoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless), is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly injure the hair
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoon
fuls will make an abundance of rich
creamy later, and cleanses the hair
and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and ex-
cessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves it fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
age.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. It is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for months.

SELL OFF EXTRA CoCKEREIs.
Male Birds Should Not Reach Age of
Stays, Says Sherwood.

Stays, Says Sherwood.
Manhattan, Kan, June 2.-Surplus
cockerels should be marketed as soon
as possible, advises R. NJ. Sherwood,
poultry specialist in the Kansas State
Agricultural college.
"All young male chickens that are
not intended for breeding purposes
should be either sold as broilers or
caponized," says Mr.. Sherwood. THE
thing to keep in mind is that the long
er cockerel is held after he has
reached the broiler stage the less is his
actual value as a market product
IF the cockerels are not marketed
at the proper time money will be lost.
unless they are so selected as to bring
more as breeding stock. On the other
hand cockerels of only market value
should be disposed of as soon as there
is market for them. Two pound
broilers that bring II cents a pound
in July are worth more than the same
cockerels would be two months later
at 8 cents pound, at which time they
will be classed as stays. Besides the
actual loss in money, two months feed
and work is also lost"
