Self Made Failures
THEY MAKE THEIR OWN EXCUSES.
But the Business Women Who Sue
coed, Work with all Their Energy
with Large Goal in View

9. The subconscious thought that
the work was temporary.
4. Carelessness in keeping prom
ises and business appointments
promptly.
5. No ambition. or fixed goal in
view.
To a number Of women, business
is but a temporary makeshift to
support ones self while waiting to
be supported, which accounts in
a measure for less ambition in
women than in men. But IL is in
evitable that large proportion Of
women will always be self-support-
ing, and so every task that is under
taken must have the best energy
and thought a woman can give il,
always with a larger and definite
goal in view.
Il went to business because I
loved pretty clothes and ] couldn't
afford them on fathers allowance

very young, while just yearned

How to Keep
Flowers

TERE are one or two simpl,
plans whereby all kinds Of
cut blossoms may be kept in q
nice fresh condition for weeks.
Get some good-sized pie dishes.
and into these put two or three
inches OF sand. well moistened.
Then secure a number OF glass
shades for these; empty jam jars,
tumblers, or anything OF this sort
may be employed. During the day
time the cut flowers are used in the
ordinary way about the house, but
at night they are all collected from
the vases. Push the stalks Of the
blossoms into the damp sand. and
then cover the groups of flowers,
placing the dishes away on the
shelf.
Next day the flowers may be taken
out and placed about the house
again, and at night they are re-
turned to the dishes. Anyone who
has not tried this plan will be sur
prised how much longer the flowers
will last than if they are left for
days in the vases.
When the petals Of the flowers are
of a thick nature-such as is often
the case with those produced by
bulbs like hyacinths-an even sim
pier way is to put all the blossoms
in a dish of water each night The
flowers are just put into the dish,
and water Is then poured over them,
and the whole thing is placed aside.
II this practice is followed it will
very much lengthen the life OF the
blossoms.
: Another plan is that of putting
the blooms into tins, when they are
not actually in use. 1t is important
to see that the lids ut tightly, and
when the blossoms are placed in
boxes they should be free from any
surface moisture.
Here, again. the flowers may be
simply put into tins at night and
brought into the vases during the
day. On the other hand, this is a
splendid way of keeping flowers for
a special event. II you shut up
some fresh flowers in a tin and
keep them in a cool place you will
find at the end of several weeks
that the blooms are still in nice con-
dition.
In many cases, by the use Of
camphor in the water in the vases,
II is possible to lengthen the life
OF the cut blossom. Put a small
lump into the water OF each vase,
and this, when dissolved. will have
a wonderful effect in stimulating
the cells of the stalk to draw up
moisture. A weak solution OF
camphor and water, slightly
warmed, is also valuable for the
reviving OF wilted blossoms.

The Income Tax.

The English income tax. first inn
posed by Pitt in 179S as a war tax,
was abolished at the Peace Of
Amiens in 1901. and again imposed
on the resumption of hostilities in
1903. At the downfall of Napoleon
it ceased to be levied for twenty-six
s16-1S42-when it was re-
imposed by Sir Robert Peel. in June,
1872, at seven pence in the pound
and produced about five million
pounds. As showing the rapid ad-
vance Of the country in prosperity,
the tax which produced about seven
hundred and ten thousand pounds
for each penny OF tax in 1912
yielded two million six hundred and
ninety-one thousand four houndred
and twenty-five pounds per penny
in 1909-I9IO. and at the present
time considerably over three million
pounds for each penny.

The doctor studied me atten-

Il won't tell him anything more
than you have already given him to

Then Jim came to claim me.
Anne, I've a splendid idea We
can't have Terry eating his dinner

cried. Terry will love your

But DR.. Lucas broke in:
Not necessary. Harrison
I think I'll let the groom have his
supper with the bride. It won't be
likely to hurt her, and something
is due him after all. These are
pretty trying circumstances for
Captain Winston"
Then he marched away. Jim
flushed and stared after him an

slipping to my side.
She had been very quiet and sub

gentle, timid, spiritual quality about
her now-sad, yet warmly happy
for Betty. She slipped one hand
through my arm and laid the other
