who do it have such bored faces Just
notice them.
Then when you travel the Friend
ship Route you have to a the regu-
lation fare. The Interheart Commits
sion has made a rockbound ruling on
that point, and has settled the denom-
nation of the coin with which you
must pay your way.
1t is Unselhshness. Unless you are
willing to sacrifice yourself for others,
unless you can prefer another's hap
piness to your own, unless you are
willing to help others, you can neve
travel on the Friendship Route.
No Passes Issued
A great many girls think that they
can get passes over this road. Never
was a greater mistake. The girl who
thinks that every one should always
do her way, that she should have the
pick of the beaus and most of the
candy, and that she should m~onopolize
the mirror in the dressing room, and
have every one waiting on her hand
and foot, may possibly get aboard the
Friendship Train, but she will be put
off at the first flag station.
Then you have got to work your
way on the Friendship Road. No dead
beats are allowed. Love never comes
to us as a free gift. 1t is always a
debt. And we always have to earn
whatever affection we get. So II you
want the girls about you to love o
do something to make them love you.
If you are at a dance, and some
miserable little wall flower is eating
her heart out in modification be-
cause. nobody has asked her to dance,
introduce some man friend of our
to her and make him lance with her.
If a new girl comes to work where
you do, speak to her and help her
learn the ropes in the office or store
If a girl has had a bit of good luck
congratulate her upon 1t and tell her
you are glad. II another girl is in
trouble sympathize with her. Don't
think because you have no money to
give, o V nothing to give. There
are more people starving for a word
of sympathy, and understanding, and
appreciation than there are starving
for bread.
The best loved woman I know
an elderly woman who has friends by
the hundreds-told me once hat
early in life she made it a rule never
to let anybody go from her presence
without having given them a kindly
word. a CHEEKY thought or just a
friendly smile. I think that example
is worth following.
Then remember that those who
travel the Friendship Route are per-
mitted to carry along no excess bag
gage in the way of whims and peculi-
arities and prejudices. People with
hobbies that they ride all over the
place; people with paprika tempers
that blister where they touch, and
with tongues picked in acid; people
with grouches, and tales of woe that
they make every one they meet help
carry, are not accepted as passengers
on the Friendship Excursion.
And finally, beloved, remember this.
The Friendship Route is safest when
travelled with women. There is, of
course, the fascinating Platonic Route
which is a mixed route and mixed
with trouble as a general thing. But
that is a side line. And dangerous.
Very. very dangerous.

oI NIkEASH
One of the ~pleasantest roads in life
is that which is called the Friendship
Route, and it leads to the Valley oil
Peace and Calm Content.
A great many girls complain TO
me that they are lonely; that other
girls do not like them; hat they are
left out of all the good times that
girls have when they f~oregather in
dove parties, n they ask me the
why of this.
II is because these girls have never
travelled the Friendship Route, n
/ am going to try to tell them now
to do it. O.,
To begin with, if you mean to travel
the Friendship Route, you must pre-
pare yourself for the journey. You
must put kindness in your heart
helpfulness in your ham n wear a
smile on your lips and the look OF
love in your eyes.
The girl who goes forth loaded
down with selhshness, and envy, n
spite, and greed, finds every door on
the train along the Friendship Route
barred to her.
She never gets aboard, no matter
how pretty and clever h is, nor how
many fne clothes she has nor how
important her father may be. Some
times the other girls play around with
her at the station, and eat her lunch,
and pretend they are going TO take
her along with them, but when the
signal bell rings for the real Friend
ship train to start they slam the gate
in her face and she is left.
She is not dressed for the journey,
for no one "a go on that excursion
who doesn't wear the full regalia or
qualities that make people lovable.
Why Others Miss
other girls never reach the end OF
the Friendship Route because they
insist on travelling in a private car.
They pride themselves upon being eX-
elusive. They shudder at the thought
of rubbing shoulders with the COM
mon herd. They shut themselves up
in their shells like clans, n refuse
TO be even civil to another girl until
they know that she is as well born,
as well educated, and has as much
money as they have.
You see these BOO little private car
girls at school. where they flock by
their dull and dismal selves. You meet
them at summer resorts, where they
sit solitary and alone turning up their
pinched little noses at the common
girls who are having loads of fun
with other girls n boys they have
gotten acquainted with at tennis, or
in bathing, or out boating or in the
hotel ballroom, or somewhere else on
the every day passenger coach of the
Friendship train, where you don't
have to know anything about any
body except that they are human and
agreeable like yourself.
OF course it's fine and grand to
ride on a special private car, but
it's mighty lonesome, and the people

NATIONS PRESTIGE
DOWN 50 PER CENT
Hughes Asserts This Is Result
of Democratic
Policies
Special TO the Telegraph

Reno. New, Aug. 24.-Charles f.
Hughes made his first appearance in a
strong Democratic State yesterday and
s~ignalized it by making three ad-
dresses to a total of 100. 900 persons in
which he strongly criticised the Dem
ocratic administration for its conduct
in many phases of government. He
told an audience in the Majestic The
alter here last night that this nations
prestige has diminished so per cent. in
the eyes of the world because of the
va%cillating policy which the admins
tration has pursued towards Mexico
and its tariff policy and its failure to
maintain standards in appointment to
national posts jeopardized the coun-
try.
Despite the character of the audi
ence, which was largely Democratic,
Mr.. Hughes vigorous assertion that
he criticised the Democrats only be-
cause it was just criticism, aroused
vigorous applause.
Il criticise to show the other side
said Mr.. Hughes. and to indicate that

sure to like this design. The bathing
suits this year are very attractive and
this n makes a good example. On the
figure, it is made of white bathing suit
satin and is trimmed with blue, but it
could be copied in taffeta or it could be
copied in mohair trimmed with silk, and
in the back view there is a suggestion for
a simpler effect. There, blue mohair is
trimmed with white. Blouse and skirt
are joined one to the other and the skirt
can be made plain or with an applied yoke.

WAR IS NOT NECESSARY

! To the Editor Of Epcnirg Ledger:
Slr-While Nature holds many unfathom-
able and ineXplicable mysteries there is
probably none more incomprehensible nor
more inconsistent with mans superior in
telligcnce and his humanitaranism than
that element in human nature which, re-
gardless of 10 centuries of Christian civil
ization, still persists in inducing men to
fight and kill one another without any ap-
parent cause.
This becomes all the more so when we
take into consideration the fact that,
ordinarily, civilization abhors murder and
that the law of self-preservaton holds good
even among the lower animals; and man.,
with his superior endowmcnts Is especially
jealous and careful not only in regard to
the preservation of his own life, but also
OF the lives of others. We enact the most
stringent laws and prescribe the severest
penalties against murder. We nurse and
nurture our children, and do our utmost to
spare their lives and bring them to years
of maturity, to manhood and to woman
hood. Then we create n condition we call
war, and we pick out from among our
young men and our mddle-aEed men the
strongest and the most perfectly developed
array them In uniform, equip them with
the most powerful implements of destruc-
ton the ingenuity of man has been able
to devise ; send them forth TO battle against
some foe. either real or imaginary. asking
them not only to sacrifice their own lives
IL necessary, but command them TO use
their utmost endeavors in taking the lives
of their fellow men; and he who succeeds
in Staying the greatest number we acclaim
the greatest hero. Yet such Is war War.
which like a giant warrior, goes stalking
through the country, trampling down every
thing before 1t leaving naught but death,
desolation and ruin in its wake; causing
untold agones OF body and mind, misery
and suffering; and yet instIgated, directed
and guided by Civilized" man Truly,
Consistency. thou art jewel" not found
in deeds like these
There is no issue; there can be no issue
among civilized people, nor among civilized
nations that cannot be adjusted without
recourse to war, II those people or those
nations will but manifest the proper spirit
Of man toward man.
