RECIPE FOR HAPPINESS
By DOLLY DAIRY MPLE

beautiful needlework: oftimes the public doesn't know about this particular per son; maybe wealthy women would like to have hand d-embroidery'' done, drawn work" all sorts of lovely "roll- ing and whipping" and they haven't an idea who does it. All they used to have to do was to go to the "Woman's Ex- change" and find out.
 Another woman makes deliciously lovely cream mints;" another "fudge:" another "kisses;' another delicious Tight bread; \ and there are dozens of people who would like to know about such, so what I'm trying to get at is just this:
 If you know of any worthy, competent woman of this character, why not pass the good word on. Let their talents be known; make a point of telling your friends about the particular individuals, and thus secure for her a market for her wares.
 I'm merely making this suggestion for believe it's a good one, and if you happen, like the newspaper girl friend of the woman I was telling you about early in this story to secure a com fortabIe livelihood for some worthy wom- an, I feel sure you'd say with me heart fly that the old Recipe for Happiness =
 "Do something for somebody-quick" is really, truly, good enough recipe to tuck away in your book of treasures!

Do you recall the old Recipe for Hap

Do you recall the old Recipe for Hap piness?"
 Here it is:
 Do something for somebody-quick!"
 I was reminded of this the other day when a little gnoup of women were dis cussing various things and one of them referred to newspaper girl friend of hers in another city who wrote a story about a certain Molly Make Believe" "a job" and before the story was fairly off the press, telephone messages. let ters, inquiries from every crack and cor ner of the earth it seemed came pour
 ing in to the newspaper girl offering the subject of her story Molly Make Be- lieve," job.
 Anybody who thinks this old world is cold and hard has got another guess coming to them" said the woman who was telling the story This newspaper girl friend of mine wrote to me and in closed the story she had written about the stranger girl in the big city and of how happy she was when she landed her in a nice, comfortable job She de- clared that the stranger girl wasn't half as happy as she Ghe newspaper girD was to be able to secure it for her.
 I am merely referring to this in order to prove the worth of old Recipe for Happiness ''-namely:
 Do something for somebody else quick!'
 My clever friend, Zoe Berxley New York's well known and popular news paper woman, once told me in brief little sketch of her newspaper career that the greatest happiness she had ever gotten out of her newspaper work was helping somebody else.
 If by writing a story for girl, and placing her talents berore the public 1 am enabled to land a good job for her it gives me more pleasure than any thing else in the world. !" If the newspaper girl friend in the big city to whom the woman referred se- cured a iob for her Molly Make Believe" why can't lot of other peo- ple in other cities do the same thing, even though they are not newspaper people?
 1 Constantly there appear in the news l columns as well as the want ads Of
 the papers the appeal of women need | ing help-positions maybe. or otherWlse- and how easy it would be just to look | into these matters seriously for moment | and see if we can't by a little exertlon i make somebody else comfortabie anu | happy and thus make ourselves happy l I recall some years ago when nrst 1 began to do newspaper work that re-
