osophically. And II a brave. cheer
full attitude was possible to her, aft
er hall century of unceasing in
validism, surely such an attitude IL
possible to you and TO me. no mat
ter what OF. present circum-
stances.
Molly Fancher discovered what
every man and woman ought 70. take
home to themselves She discov-
cred that gloom is no cure for
trouble. and that despondency only
makes bad matters worse.
During her period OF blindpess,
deafness, and dumbness. had she
not discovered this. had she allowed
worry and despair TO overwhelm
her. II is safe TO say that her life
would have ended long ago.
Her cheerfuiness not only enabled
her TO endure the long years OF Ill
ness. ii was positive factor In
keeping her alive OF this there can
be no doubt.
She was cheerful--and she
worked.
Years ago biographer recorded
OF her that. lying in her bed of
sickness, able TO use only her
hands, she had even then written
thousands Of letters, and had done
vast amount OF knitting, embroi.
derry. and wax-work.
Thus she kept ber mind occu-
pied. and by so doing kept herself
from falling victim to "ingrowing
thoughts" Not to brood. but to
keep busy, chat has been Molly
Fancher's sickroom philosophy.
From tie story of her life, all
of US. In sickness or in health. can
learn a helpful lesson.

certain habits of extravagance and
improvidence, Of which there are
only too many and too eloquent evi.
dences on every hand. We have ex
hausted the virgin fertility OF GU,
soil without effort at recompense--
we have cut down our forests with.
out any attempt at replanting--we
have dug out the richest OF our min
erals, and, for want Of . little care
and patience. have allowed millions
OF wealth TO run to waste In the
tail heap--and In our methods OF
manufacturing we have thrown
away waste material which the more
patient and thrifty European manu-
facturer has fabricated into useful
product, with profit to himself and
useful conservation for the world nj
large Not only have we been con.
tent 10 send our natural products
abroad. there TO be worked up into
finished articles and. as such, to be

CORRECT JUDGEMENT
~ On. FRANK GRAMS
(CopyrighL 1916. b. Frank Crane,


All Of us would like to know how to.
form correct judgment of the people We
Imeet.
II you are an employer of workerssft
goes without saying that to be able to-
lestimate correctly an applicants quail
fications is valuable gift. So also II
you have TO make political appoint
ments, to supervise teachers, to manage
Ichildren, or even to select cook.
But good judgment of character is an
asset toward ones own comfort and
peace of mind, for it is bitter TO be de-
lceived, and when ones confidence is
abused it leaves deep hurt.
In preparing ourselves to Judge peo-
|ple, the main thing is TO look inside otlr.
selves. for most of our errors come from
our own defects. Pass by. therefore, all
|phrenology and other systems whereby
character is supposed to be indicated BY
bumps on the head. the shape Of the
nose, mouth, eye, and so forth. These
things may have value, but there is
something else that has greater value,
and that is ones own state of mind.
The best Judge of all is love- If you
detest person, if you feel an instructive
antipathy, do not undertake to form any
opinion Of him whatever, for any notion
you may conceive of him is pretty sure
to be wrong. Your love may not neces-
sarily be ardent. but at least you must
wish him well and be kindly disposed be-
fore you can gauge him at vii. Set that
down., acknowledge fairly that it is I'M
possible to be just and to hate.
Secondly, you must be honest: If ypH
are crafty, devious, and unfair you can
never know the truth. No man can ~
the honesty in another unless he hasR Il
| in himself. ~
Third, you must strip yourself af
pride. egotism and the sensitiven6se
that goes with these failings. If you ars
touchy in your self-esteem. there isEa
veil over your eyes; you cannot see othf4
souls, but can only perceive the shadows
of your own.
| A proud and sensitive person is always
a fool. He will cherish the meanest and
most unworthy persons, if they only
flatter him. All you have to do to gain
his regard is to wave incense to his nose,
On the other hand he cannot underst&nd
how any one can be virtuous. capable. or
right who fails to be obsequious to him
| The value of genuine humility: of
spirit is that it has vision II really
care nothing for adulation, if can put
my own self to one side. then, and then
only, can estimate justly the worth Of
those who do not seem to care for me.
You must likewise be open minded.
You must be able to keep your Judgment
suspended. To come to conclusions and
then to stick to decision. simply be-
cause you have made it, is stubbornr1sa
and vanity; it is not judicial firmnesN
AS you mingle with men and woia
you will find but few genuinely of3n
minds. Most people are slaves to -
judice, to opinions crudely formed 5Sd.
foolishly clung to.
| Don't try to be consistent. Be hon6lt,
And it is mighty hard to be both. "Cfo-,
sistency," said q philosopher, 'is the iiob-
goblin of little minds" M
You must have imagination. for VA
out that you cannot put yourself Ia aka'
lplace."
And, lastly, You must have faitl3 =,
