much. good. The best Of physicians,
you know, have proven that a little
bit of jelly doesn't make any differ
ence, but is instead an aid to stub
born patients And so. insist, my
dear that if these perfectly frank per-
sons just used a little more tact
and human fellowship feeling for the
other person when administering their
doses of truth and frank statements,
they would accomplish, perhaps, a
very great deal
1T is sometimes essential to tell q
person the truth for that persons own
good. But no one likes being hit over
the head, so to speak, with a black
jack, which is the method some pur-
sue in trying to tell somebody the
truth Of a matter, nor is It perhaps
any more pleasant to be stuck be-
tween the ribs and prodded, which is
a slyer method some others pursue.
If you feel that you must be perfectly
frank, be so in as sweet and gracious
and tactful manner as you possibly
can and give your dose of frankness
in the jellied spirit of true friendship.
human feeling, sympathy and love, so
that the one to whom you give it, can
neither mistake your meaning nor yet
fail to digest the good which you so
carefully and tactfully wrapped in
your spoonful of jelly" The frank
person who delivers his statements
bluntly, is seldom acute enough to
realize that pointed arrows can be
shot back. And when, perchance, he
does get struck in the eye with a.
return dagger, he is usually the very
! first person to become blinded with
.. rage and indignation.

Dear Sue
When l asked Steve the other even
ing how he liked my new hat and he
started out by saying well, Betty,
to be perfectly frank" l imme-
diately lost my temper. If there is
anything in the wide world that makes
me nervous, it is to have person
start off a sentence with those awful
words, ITO be perfectly frank. VINO
wants anybody to be perfectly frank
pray tell? I'm quite sure / don't. And
besides there isn't a bit of necessity
for il anyway A body can tell you
the truth without sticking it into you
| like you were a pin cushion. NOW
here's this perfectly wonderful hat or
mine, for which l paid seven ninety
eight, marked down from twelve, and
which, | think, is frightfully becom-
ing, and here Steve, by being per-
fectly frank" has made me hate the
thing as he says l look like starv-
ing Cuban in it.
"Now you know yourself. Sue. that
1t is provoking to have somebody
come along and pour cold water all
over your nice, bubbling, enthusiasm
and that's just exactly what being
perfectly frank means. Nine times out

or herself on giving their open anc
honest-to-goodnes opinions without
! any frills or fricassee, are persons who
have no finer sensibilities, and 50 car
not appreciate the other fellows view

son is a hopeless egotist. He cares TO-
no one in the wide world but himsel
and it matters not in the slightes
whether he hurts someone's feeling
or not He tells the truth, and, witt
smiling conscience which smacks o
the pharasaical, he goes out into tn
