DO SOMETHING WORTH WHILE
Much Benefit viii Come From Deter
mInation to Make Each Day
Record Of AZ compIishment.

The one who starts out in the morn
ing with determination to do some
thing during the day that will amount
to something, that will be distinctive,
that will have individuality, that will
give him satisfaction at night, is a
great deal more likely not to waste
his day in frivolous, unproductive work
than the one who starts out with no
plan.
Begin every day, therefore, with a
program and determine that, let what
will come, you will carry it out as
closely as possible. Follow it up per-
sistently, day after day, and you will
be surprised at the result
Make up your mind at the very
outset Of the day that you will accom-
plish something that will amount to
something; that you will not allow
callers to fritter away your time, and
that you will not permit the little an
noyances of your business to spoil
your days work. Make up your mind
that you will be larger than the trifles
which cripple and cramp mediocre
lives, and that you will rise above petty
annoyances and Interruptions and
carry out your plans in q large and
commanding way.
Make every day of your life count
for something; make it tell in the
grand results, not merely as an added
day, but as an added day with some
thing worthy achieved.

BONE-DRY BILL LAW
Wilson Signs Measure Stopping
Liquor Traffic July /.
Manufacture of Wine and Beer to End
May Until Army Is
Demobilized.

Washington, Nov. 22-President
Wilson at one minute to five O'Clock
Thursday afternoon signed the bone
dry prohibition measure, and thus
made it law.
This action means that the sale of
all intoxicants shall be prohibited aft
er June 80, 1919, and continue in force
until the last Of the American troops
have been demobilized. The bill to
which the president affixed his sigma
ture is officially known as the, food
stimulation BILL" Prohibition leaders
say the law insures permanent prohibi-
ton for the nation. because the process
of rehabilitation may take two years.
and by that time the prohibition
amendment will be ratified
The bone-dry rider known as the
Sheppard amendment provides that
the manufacture Of beer and wine
shall cease May next year, and the
sale Of all kinds OF intoxicants shall
stop after June 80
Importation Of wine from other
countries Is to be prohibited after May
1. The bill originally contained pro
vision which would have forbidden the
importation Of wines Immediately upon
the approval of the act.
The countries of Europe interested
in the manufacture Of wines protested
through their embassies and legations
here, however, and this resulted in a
modification which permits them to
ship their wines into this country un-
til May 1.

BABY'S LOT NOT HAPPY ONE
Small Wonder That So Many Children
of the Puritans Ended Their
Earthly Career Early.

There is no doubt Of the strength
and endurance Of the Puritan babies
which survived the hardships of the
first few months Of their lives. The
Puritans came to America some time
before modern heating appliances were
scheduled to arrive, and their winter
days and nights could have been little
less than one long shiver.

comfort, what must have been the
hardship of the newest baby who, a
few days after his arrival in this
world, was taken to the coldest part
Of 1.-THE bleak little Puritan meeting
house-which never knew anything
better than heatless days? 'This ex-
pedition often completed the baby's
earthly careers" says Laura E. Rich
ards, in recountfng the tribulations Of
the Puritan Junior population. We
think of the hardness of the early
Puritan children, but this writer says,
"Of Judge Sewalls II children, but
three survived him, a majority dying
in infancy; and of the Is children Of
his friend, Cotton Mather but two sur
vived their father" The infant NOR
tality due to exposure may be readily
conjectured.
In addition to the visit to the cold
meeting house, the baby must steel
himself to face the greater or lesser
ailments of babyhood-and their RENE

admirably asserts the spirit of the
