Caution is the parent of safety. 1t
Is better to use caution in time than
regrets too late. It is better to give
the mind some exercise in considera-
ton before beginning a new thing. 1t
Is wise to make friends slowly. Some
people like to boast of being $50 i'm
pulsive," and think that this should
be an acceptable excuse for many fail
fngs. Impulse is often a good thing,
but 1t needs long course of careful
training before 1t can be safely in
dulged. First impressions are often
deceiving, says Milwaukee Journal.
One may not at first be attractive in
appearance, but on further acquaint-
ance, prove to be admirable in charac-
ter. Those who are impulsive in max
Ing professions Of friendship are not
entirely to be depended on to be per-
manent or reliable. In giving way
to strong liking or aversion one often
does injustice. Acquaintance is quite
as likely to show admirable as unlik-
able qualities. Often an aversion has
been changed to deep and true
friendship. And, on the other hand,
some who appear admirable on first
meeting prove otherwise. Do not judge
hastily on the impulse of moment.
Acts done on the impulse of the mo-
ment may cause repentance for many

FEMININE DRESS
OF TODAY
Effect is to Diminish Dignity But
Suggests Youth, So There
You Are.
(From Boston Transcript.)

One effect Of the feminine dress of
the present day is to diminish the
dignity of the wearer. Strange to
say, 1t is not diminished through any
prejudice against the dress itself, or
indeed any dislike of 1t at all. I'll is
perhaps because the costume suggests
youthfulness, girlishness: and deep re-
spect is not generally ELECTED by that
condition. It is impossible to feel the
sama respectful awe for a lady who
trips in gaily in a dress suggestive
of childhood that one is bound to feel
for a stately dowager who sails into
the room, grand, gloomy and pecu-,
says Mrs. Catherine burning Whet-
ham. in her magisterial work on THE
Upbringing Of Daughters" like a
dress with an ample train to keep q
woman from mobs and crowds and to
give her dignity and an appearance OF
a%loofness." The thought of high-bred
aloofness, indeed. may be said to have
inspired the train. 1t says Stand
off" at once, The street dress of the
moment suggests nothing Of thai sort.
A cas has been brought to our at
tention in which a typical old French
man-seryant, bred in the strictest ira
ditions of service in aristocratic
Partisan families, gave notice not
long ago~because his mistress. the
Countess j., wore a fashionably short
skirt; and his reason was not t1aat he
objected to the fashion in the least,
but that he was continually represent
ing to his own mind that the count
ess vas a maiden of ten or twelve,
and that therefore he was unable to
MAINTAIN the manner Of awe, of re-
spect rejecting itself in his every look
and movement, without which he was
unwilling to exercise his calling as a
turnkey. His resignation of his situa-
ton voiced no disapprobationl} OF his
mistress whatever; it was due merely
to his professional integrity-to an
unwillingness to break his technique
in the slightest particular. From the
}moment his mistress appeared in the
modern dress, she was to him. as a
girl Of twelve or thirteen.
It would be an interesting psycholo-
gical Study to determine the reasons
artistic, historical or otherwise for
the impression Of dignity that is con
i veyed by a gown which trails on the

MUST Turn in Bags.

The Comfort Bag committee and in
fact, chapter officials ask that all per-
sons having comfort bags out of the
headquarters for filling, return them
not later than Saturday. This is very
urgently asked, in view of the fact
that the committee has no definite way
of knowing who will get bags and who
will be overlooked, unless the entire
number is listed at headquarters, and
disposition of the kits Is made from
there. The committee is directly re-
sponsible to the chapter for these bags
that have been given out, SO it Is inn
portant that every one of them be re-
turned within a short time. More than
two hundred of the bags have been
made, and a number Of them distri-
buted for filing, the intention Of the
committee being to supply every MEM
Der Of the military companies leaving
Grand Forks with one of the little kits.
However, 1t will be impossible to de-
termine who Of these men will. be sup
piled with bags, unless they are all
checked out at the headquarters, and
for this reason, every oma having
taken one Of the articles, whether It
was for some member of her family or
some one else, is asked to return the
same not later than Saturday of this
week.. .y5
