WHAT HAPPINESS
REALLY IS
A Sensation Larger and
Deeper Than Pleasure"
Says Charlotte Gilman

The declaration of independence
says every man has a right to "the
pursuit of happiness"
This would seem to indicate that
happiness was swift and coy.
Why should it run away?
Does it hurt happiness to catch it?
1t is only happy while running
loose?
When we have caught it, what does
it look like?
There has been lot of discussion
on this subject.
One of the poets speaks of man as
creature "Who never is, but always
to be, blest."
Is this fact?
Is there no such thing as happiness,
and has nobody ever been happy long
enough to tell about it?
Like many another matter, this is
largely nonsense.
All this "blue bird" mythology, all
these fairy tales and poems, all the
solemn talk by which we seek to per-
suade young people that it is no use
trying to be happy is just plain non
sense.
Happiness is a sensation larger and
| deeper than pleasure.
1t depends good deal upon health

ON CATCHING COLDS
BV II. AddingtOn Bruce

n CANADIAN correspondent, a chronic
~ catcher Of colds, suggests that at this
season of the year many people would
welcome information to the cause of their
such tendency has numerous causes, so that
every case should be made subject of in
dividual medical investigation. o.
Perhaps the commonest of all causes, how
ever is the widespread practice of not mere
ly overheating the home in winter, but under
ventilating it, and giving it y supply of air
that is too dry as well as too hot and stale.
Failure to obtain a sufficiency of fresh air
meansFa lowering of the resistivity to cold
causing germs. The breathing of air that
is too dry means an irritation Of the mucous
membranes of the air passages. This is an
ideal cold-catchng combination.
The obvious remedy is an improving of
the ventilation of the home, and a raising of
the humidity of the air in it. Moisture-pro-
vidng appliances may be attached to the
heating system, or, at less expense, pan or
large-surfaced dish containing water for
evaporation may be placed in each room.
Other people catch cold easily not so much
because of the air conditions in their homes
as because of failure to exercise properly,
plus failure to eat properly. Undernourish-
ment, like differentiation. lowers resstiv-
ity to colds. So does malnourishment, due to
overeating or to eating of too rich foods.
Then there are persons who often catch
colds simply because they persist in going
outdoors dressed too lightly for winter wealth
er. On the other hand. there is such a thing
as dressing too warmly. and this itself may
be productive of frequent colds. The win
ter clothing should be neither so tight nor
so heavy as to cause one to perspire when
moving about.
Or the cause of catching cold easily may
be some physical abnormality in the cold
catcher himself.
People who have chronic tonsillar or other
throat infections, who cannot breathe free
ly because of polypoid growths bone NAL
formations in the nose, etc. are particularly
liable to catch cold frequently. Besides
which, as Fisher and Fisk observe
"Such conditions not only predispose to
colds, but increase their severity and the
danger of complicating infections Of the bony
cavities in the skull that communicate with
the nose They also increase the liability to
involvement of the middle ear and of the
mastoid cells, which are located in the skull
just behind the ear.
'The Importance, therefore, of having the
nose and throat carefully examined, and Of
having any diseased condition of the mucous
membrane or any obstruction corrected, will
be apparent All who suffer from recurrent
colds should take this precaution before win
ter sets in"
More rarely, frequency in catching colds
may be sign of some unsupported organic
disorder that is markedly lowering the vi
tality. Common sense again dictates visit
to a good medical man to make sure that
chronic cold catching is not thus co-existent
with declining health.

JUST BETWEEN

If there's one thing that we women have
learned concerning politics this first year of
our general emergence into the arena, it's
the difference between mere politicians and
statesmen. The balance is not on the side
of the former.
For we've learned that the politician
thinks first of self, and second, last, and al
ways of party. He is out for the goods
every time. If he is a Republican, Repub-
lican he votes for, regardless of any differ
a Democrat he considers it a cardinal sin
to vote for a Republican. If 2 Socialist, his
brain convolutions work in like manner. All
with horror and disgust at the few which
by accident or purpose fall on the other aMs
Of the fence
But IT, statesman thinks always of his
country. He loves party lnes,s holds to
them when uprightness will permit but does
not magnify them beyond national inter-
national limits He is ready to serve his
nation, but is not striving insistently to gain
the limelght of public interest and popular
ity. He is neither petulant. abusive, nor
one-sided in thought. He sees all, chooses
that which is best in the light of his Iudg-
ment, and goes about to attain results. His
efforts are marked with passionate sincerity,
and although he makes errors occasionally,
they can be forgiven because of l..
Yes: women have had great chance
to study and learn in the political field be-
fore we have left it's quiet edges for the
actual battle. Some of going to bs
politicians, nevertheless. Others Of us moS-
est statesmen. Or is 1t stateswOfnen?

CAMP FIRE GIRLS
By DR.. Frank Crane

by Or. FRANK CTane
The Camp Fire Girls is an organization in
tended to improve the morale of girls.
The most important thing, of course, in
improving the fitness of any human being,
male or female, old or young, is outdoors.
The law of the Camp Fire Girls is to tray
ell seven roads, which are as follows:
1. To seek beauty.
2. To give service.
8. To pursue knowledge.
4. To be trustworthy.
5. To be healthy.
6. To glorify work.
7. To be happy.
If any parents in the world ever existed
that did not want their girl to travel these
seven roads, l never met them
Among the things that Camp Fire Girls
are supposed to do are the following, which
are good to recommend to any girls in the
world:
Cook leftover meats in four ways.
Cook for one month in home.
Iron eight hours in two months.
Wash and wipe dishes and leave the din
ing-room in order after one meal day for
two months.
Care for the baby for an average of one
hour day for one month.
Cook and serve two Sunday dinners while
mother rests.
icecream sundaes, sodas, and commercially
manufactured beverages, as we'll as from eat
ing between meals, for two consecutive
months. ,.
Sleep out of DOORS or with wideopen win
dows, for two consecutive months between
October and April, inclusive.
Swim one hundred yards.
Skate twenty-five miles n five days (not
necessarily consecutive).
Walk forty miles in any ten days (not
necessarily conIecutive) This means tramp
ing in the country walking to and from
school or business.
Make a bed on the ground, and sleep out
of doors on it for any five nights.
Build an open fire in wind and rain with
material found out Of doors, and build a
proper bonfire. (No fire is credited until
it is properly put outO
Take dozen photographs; develop and
print them.
Make set of baby clothes.
Embroder or bead shirtwaist or dress
with original design.
Use all the attachments of a sewing ma
chine, and clean and keep it in order for
three months.
Identify and describe twenty wild flowers.
Identify eight birds by their flight
Describe, from personal observation, the
home, appearance and habits of three wild
animals.
Save 10 per cent of your allowance for
three months.
Do not borrow money articles of wear
ing apparel for two months.
Swat at least twenty-five flies every day
for the one month.
Do not eat meat or eggs more than once
a day.
And if you can and will do all that, you
may have day off and steal some apples,
or something.

Millions from Grapes

More than quarter of million j. pouring

the sale of table and wine gra 3es shipped

When it is realized that 1890 900 is COL
lected here every four days from this one
source, the reason of Lodi's present prosperity
can be seen.
For the past month there has 6een on an
average of 100 cars per day-including box
cars-shpped from this district It is safe
to say. that conservative estimate on the sales
of this fruit is more than $4,000 per car. At
the f. o. b. price of 50 per crate, it would
amount to $4,000, figuring on 1 200 crates to
the car. Many cars have sold away above
this figure and quite number have brought
from 5000 to 1900 in the east, with $500
freight charges.

T,uo Welcome Untanq7;nqs

~ ECENT outgivings at Washington
X seem to indicate that the Mexican
and the Japanese problems, two vex-
ing tangles in our foreign relations, are soon
to be unkotted.
The new political order south of the Rio
Grande is giving substantial evidence, not
only of it's ability to govern, but also its
good will to the United States-in both OF
which important particulars the regime that
it supplanted was sadly lacking. Border dis
turbances have died away to infrequent lit
tie flickers where formerly they were so
recurrent and so serious as to threaten
confederation. Interior conditions also ap-
pear more suspicious than anything Mexico
has known for years. Industry and COM
merce are waxing vigorous; investors are
taking heart again; the mass of the people
are markedly more content; the countrys
better elements are greatly encouraged.
This, at least, is the tenor of recent and
trustworthy reports. Such developments
make it likely that Washington will recog-
nize the new Mexican government, and rec
ognition in turn will reinforce the conditions
that prompt it. Her diplomatic and bust
ness relations with the United States fully
re-established, Mexico will have means Of
borrowing the money so much needed to
meet her obligations and to develop her
WOn0rOuSly rlCQ resources. IQ6uC0 Will
come prosperity-not, as in the old days,
for tyranncal few, but (if the new order
fulfills it's evidently earnest promise) for
the rank and file who seek success with in
dustry,i honesty and intelligence. A Mexico
of that character will make an excellent
neghbor and will live honored in the family
Of nations.
AS to the Japanese matter, the Govern
nent at Tokyo is said to stand ready to
pledge itself, by gentlemens agreement If
not by treaty, to stop immigration from it's
country to ours, upon the understanding
that CALIFORNIA; land legislation shall not
discriminate between Japanese and other
aliens. There is every reason to expect that
this issue, wide though it's ramifications are,
will be settled satisfactorily to all rightful
interests, if demagogues and jingoes are
kept from intermeddling. Japan has moth
ing to gain in pressing for more than JUS
tice or in antagonizing American sentiment.
Moreover, within her own Far Eastern sphere
Of influence and opportunity she has enough
to preoccupy her without seeking troublous
adventures afar. In all reason, she and
America should continue in mutually profit
able commerce and generous friendship
The untangling of these two matters will
be highly welcome, for while neither the
Mexican nor Japanese question has been
very serious, both have been irritating And
at this dubious juncture Of world affairs,
the fewer irritations the better.
