THE RIGHT THING
AT
THE RIGHT TIME
By MARY MARSHALL DUFFEE


n I'D you ever stop to think how
much man is judged by the
state of his beard? One or the
quickest ways for the man who ap-
pears to be self-respecting. efficient
and well-bred to make himself look
inefficient, irresponsible and uncouth
is to let his beard go for few days.
The appearance Of being always close
shaved and we'll shaved does much
for the way others judge man.
Men who have been at the front
In camp know how important to their
own feeling Of self-respect the faclii-
ties for good shave really are. ana
wherever possible the boys in training
or In action, were expected TO keep well
shaved. Ii is said that Caesar insisted
that his soldiers be closely shaved but
his reason for thus insisting was for
fear the TeutOnic barbarians with
whom they fought would seize them by
their boards In combat IL they neg
lected shaving too long. 1t is said that
one of the many reasons why the
Roman soldiers had such a decided
advantage was that they had no boards
With which toibe seized by their adver-
saries.
1t has usually happened. before this
that after a war boards. came into
fashion, because the men In camp had
SO little opportunity for daily shave
that they soon found II more con-
venient to raise boards which needed
little or no attention from the barber.
After the Civil war lads scarcely In
their twenties came back with long
boards, and naturally enough bearda
became the fashion. At various times
in England long mustaches became the
fashion because they were affected by
military men. There was time In
England when only officers were al
lowed to wear mustacheS, so that
wearing mustache was associated
with the possession of rank and dis.
tinction and hence mustaches became
highly favored. As soon as a private
left service he raised q muStache Just
because he had never been allowed to
do so before.
Among the ancient Hebrews and In
other countries in days gone by the
beard has stood for yirility and manli-
ness and a man would have felt dis
honored If he had had to shave his
heard. In Syria and Egypt, 1t is
sail that boards really served a pur-
pose In protecting a man from the
burning sand of the desert. so 1t was
indeed calamity TO be deprived OF
this adOrnment.

The first feminine Claudia. was the

spelled. became popular in England
and was taken over by the Welsh, who
are responsible for the feminine
Gladys.
GLADYS came 10 be considered the
equivalent for Claudia and as such was

Uncommon Sense
BY JOHN BLAKE
ENERGY is CAPITAL.

A LAKE cannot turn a turbine,
~ though II contains more water
than a cataract.
All the knowledge you can accumu-
late in a lifetime will do you no good
unless 1t can be translated into en-
ergy.
The difference between doors and
wishers in this life is difference OF
energy.
The wishers want things. The doors
get them. 1t Is hard work getting
them. but energy Is the force that can
accomplish hard work. -sss ~
The reason you see so many men
succeed whom you know to he no bet
ter fitted mentally than failures Of
your acquaintance Is because the sue
cessfu men are energetic. hs
Energy is the driving force behind
everything that Is done. s e, f..
All of us have some of it. or we
could not live.
Those who have great deal usually
get along, unless they constantly mis-
direct It. is..r ~.
There are, of course energetic peo-
pie who never get very far. Bait even
they get farther than they would IF
they were content to sit still.
If the maxim. Everything comes to
him who waits,r' were amended to
read. Nothing comes tto. him who
waits" 1t would be true
AS ii stands il, is one of the most
misleading and dangerous falsehoods
in existence. s.
Your energy is your capital. Use II
wisely and economically and it Will
pay you an almost usurious rate of in
terest.
Half use it. or waste 1t on things
that are of no value and you will just
about make living. which Is a thing
which no man of ambition wants to
do.
Education teaches US TO uSesour en-
ergy probably. An educated RAN can.
or should. get more out of the same
amount of energy than an uneducated
man, exactly as turbine gets more
out of column of falling water than
me OIH-ltSllbtltu VNclShOt NhtVis
Yet the energy must be there, or the
education must be useless. There must
he driving force which will apply what
you have learned to your problems.
Nothing important was ever accom-
plished by education alone.
If you haven't got energy. cultivate
1t. Put your health in good condition
and your physical energy will inn
prove. and with physical energy you
will gain mental energy.
Be careful how you use BOTH. You
can't settle a business tangle IL you
have been playing tennis all the morn
ing. The exercise will use up the en-
ergy that ought to be expended on the
job. Your brains can't use what your
muscles have used already.
Energy is always capital, but 1t must
be well and priidently invested.
Fake care of yours. Add to ii by
care of your health and by abundant
mental exercise. Then expend Ii on
important matters, and don't be
afraid to expend It literally. 1t is one
thing of which the more you spend the
more you will have. provided. OF
course. II is not foolishly wasted.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"T EAGLE"

"HOSE who have stumbled
across the reference In
Walters ode 10 Charles
III to "treacle yielded by your
vipers" have naturally been
puzzled TO see the connection
between a poisonous snake AMI
the English name for strip or
molasses. a connection which
dates back to the days OF
legendary lore.
"Treacle" was originally n
Greek word and. wrapped up In
il. was the once popular belief
that the best antidote for the
sting of a snake was cOncoc-
ton made from the tissues Of
the snake itself--a sort of hair
of the dog Is good for the bite
idea. Milton speaks Of the SOW
ereign ''treacle Of sound doe
trine." while Venice -freacle" or
wiper. wine" was common
name for a supposed antidote
against all poisons. Treacle,
meaning first this antidote. was
first broadened in meaning to
include any cure through medi-
cine; then contracted to mean
only those medicines which
were of sweet strip nature
and finally. restricted to the
particular strip which is called
by that name today--a sirun
which. however. has no medici-
nal properties whatever.
