GOOD HUMOR IS CONTAGIOUS
Petty Vexations Of tho Day Disap-
pear Quickly II Met With a
Smile or a Laugh.

"Nothing in the world Is so con-
tagious as good humor." 1t may cost
little effort to keep oneself
good-humored in the midst Of all the
petty vexatons that occur daily, but
If one has the habit Of making light
of these trifing annoyances, half OF
them will disappear. The annoyance
will be but for moment and cleared
up with a smile or laugh. Permit
ting these small vexations to take hold
Of your spirits Is mistake, says the
Milwaukee Journal. They wear out
nerve and temper and bring permanent
frowns to the face. They impair good
health. They unfit one for present du-
ties which must be performed In a
cheerful, genial frame Of mind. Work
done in resentful spirit never reaches
perfection. 1t misses the finer per-
sonal touches, which one gives when in
hearty, free, genial humor. Giving
way to vexation takes from courage
and self-confidence, and this Is evident
in ones work. Then make an effort
to keep cheerful, whatever the little
aggravations may be. The more you al
low yourself to be disturbed by trifles,
the greater they will appear to you
and the more of them will possess
YOU. "Those who make us laugh are
great" If you try to seem happy you
help Yourself to become so.

How a Diamond Cuts Glass.

It has been ascertained by series
of experiments that diamond does
not cut the glass f1le-fashion, but forces
the particles apart, so that continu'
GUS crack Is formed along the line or
the intended cut, The crack once be-
gun, very small force is necessary to
carry 1t through the glass, and thus
the piece is easily broken off. The
superficial crack or cut need not be
deep; a depth, according to fine meas
urements, of 200th part of one inch Is
quite sufficient to accomplish the pur-
pose, so that the application of much
force In using the diamond only wears
out the gem without doing the work
any better. Numerous stones, such as
quartz and other minerals, when
ground into proper form, will cut glass
like diamond, but are not so valuable
for that purpose, lacking the requisite
hardness and soon losing the sharp
edge necessary to make the operation
a success.
