DON'T WHINE IN SICK ROOM
Remember to Carry Cheer, Not Sym
pathy to Those Who Are Tenn

Every one is called upon now and
then to visit the sick room. COndi-
tions surrounding the bedside vista

is one rule that holds good under all
conditions. and that is TO carry cheer
and sunshine-not long face, but n
smile. If the patients are able talk
to them of what is going on outside.
Help them to forget themselves. A
man who for over twenty years had
been parulyzed, was visited by a
friend who was profuse in expressing
his sympathy and regret at the sick
mans helplessness. AS he was about
to leave, the afflicted man said, Come
again, won't you, but when you do
please forget to tell me that you are
sorry for me as every one tells me that.

Kipling had in his mind when he

goose with the great snake, you
must read neither too slowly nor

any of the pictures; that is, you
must not fail 10 get in your mind
the correct image for each word.
If you are a careless reader and do
not get the correct mental picture
OF practically all the words on the
page, you will fail to see the eXcit-

you are over-slow the separate
views suggested by the individual
words will not combine in one con-
tinuous movement or picture. III
you recognize words readily, but
are overhasty and rush down the
page without taking time to see ev-
cry picture distinctly you will get
meaningless blur
If, then, you wish to be admitted
to the thrilling moving picture

must be able and willing to pay
the price and observe all the rules.
