when Jack Frost and winter come
again.
As autumn comes on, notice the
party dresses Of gold and red which
the leaves put on, and watch the
flowers change. Many seeds are fall
ing from the flowers and trees to the
ground.
Then the autumn leaves hutter
down and warmly cover the little
seeds, which are ready for a long
sleep, after their happy summer. No
tice that most of the birds have de-
parted, the squirrels have finished
gathering their nuts and are staying
in their wan hollow trees, and the
little woods animals have found
coy hooks for their long winter
maps. Watch for the first signs of
frost on the grass and ice on the
puddles. Then with the first snow
fall, winter has surely come, and our

THE LOVE OF LIFE

The desira to live is mans strong
est impulse.
To satisfy this desire, science
constantly experiments: new schools
of medicine, philosophy and religion
are reared, and manufacturers OF
patent medicines wax rich. To pro-
long life, human beings travel rest
lessly from one health restoring eli
mate to another, and pay fabulous
sums to specialists and surgeons.
The cripple, bound to a wheel chair,
begs his physician for just a few
more months of life, and the victim
of acute heart disease sits practi-
cally motionless day and night, lest
sudden exertion snap the slender
thread Of existence.
And while invalids have roamed
from American sanitarium to for
eign "cure," while those who could
not travel in search of health have
filed their systems with patent nos
trums, one branch of the medical
profession has gone its quiet way,
experimenting and working along
sane, scientific lines, until finally,
out of preventive medicine and n.y.
gienic living, it has devised a meth
cd of prolonging life!
The truth of this statement has
recently been demonstrated. A COM
mittee of the American Engineering
Council, appointed by Secretary

HONEY PHILOSOPHY FOR 1922

Prayer is such a solemn, such a
sacred attitude of mind, SO difficult
really to attain, it seems strange
when we get into the proper atmos-
phere we should waste time begging
for what we have right at our feet.
Why should we pray to be unselfsh
when all we have to do is to be un-
selfish, why pray for guidance down
a proper pathway when we know
just how to travel if we will7 We
can all be what we want to be if we
really want to be that way. The good
Lord has given us that power with
out the asking. Seems to me the
only kind of prayer that's in order
is a word for the poor fellow that
don't want to be and a determination
on our own part to measure up to
the job of living.
One sure way to get in bad is to
try to please everybody.

Hoover, has announced that during
the brief period between 1909 and
1922, the span Of human life in
America has been heightened five
years. This means that the average
child born today will probably live
five years longer than those of us
who were born forty years ago.
And, living, he will also, enjoy better
health, sturdier old age.-Wo-
mans Home Companion.

WHISTLE IN THE WEATHER

There's a whistle in the weather,
For the winds in music chime,
If you're ready for the dancin'
Now's the time, now's the timel
For the blood is all a-tingle,
And you never felt so prime
If you're ready for the dancin'
Now's the time, now's the time.
Oh, that whistle in the weather.
There are hill you want to climl
For you're frisky as feather
Now's the time, now's the time.
But stay-the fiddler's comm =
A jig tune for dimel-
If you're ready for the dancin'
Now's the time, now's the time!

One Of the greatest privileges
which a mother can enjoy is awak-
ening and developing love Of ma
ture in her children. This can be
done by devoting a small amount Of
time each day to the concentrated
observation of flowers, trees, birds,
clouds, snow and other beautiful Of
ferings of nature. Mother Nature
herself win outline the yearly pro-
gram to be followed.
During fhu winter months, when
much time is spent indoors, the
hours may be improved by telling
stories of animals, birds, ants and
bees and showing pictures Of these
useful friends. There are many in
teresting things to be seen outdoors
on winter walks. 1t is easy then,
when trees are bare, for children to
learn to recognize them by their
banks. This is a good time to dis
cover and examine nests which the
birds deserted when Jack Frost told
them to fly to the warm Southland
When snow comes, catch some hard
dry flakes on a slate, and let the
children examine the beautiful crys-
tails. Speak of the snow as a soft,
white blanket covering the tiny seeds
which are down in the ground, wait
ing to grow.
Then comes spring with her help
ers, the March winds, the April rain
and the warm sunshine. The chill
dren can be outdoors more at this
time, and love to romp with the
strong March wind, which is sweep
ing and blowing the dead leaves all
about. Watch for the first wee
green shoots as they peep through
the ground, followed soon by GRO
cuses, daffodils, bloodroot and the
tiny woods flowers. 1t is a great Joy
to be able to take children for walks
in the woods at this season, but the
city boys and girls need not be de-
MED the fun Of seeing the little
seeds awake. Try this interesting ex-
pertinent.
Give each child a sponge, and
have him moisten it and place it in
a saucer in a sunny window. Then
sprinkle it full of ordinary mixed
grass seed or, if you keep a canary,
and have bird seed, use that. Do
not tell the child what will happen,
but let him watch for the changes
that will come. Bring pussy willow
stalks, and branches from other
bushes into a warm, sunny room,
and observe the building of the flow
ers and leaves.
Lead your little children to think
of the April rains as kind helpers,
and repeat to them, "Come listen to
the pitter patter of the April show
ers." In these verses we have the
thought of the April showers bring
ing out the sweet May flowers.
AS the spring and summer birds
and flowers come, tell the children
their correct names. 1t is a splen-
did plan to collect pictures Of famil
lar birds and flowers on rainy days.
These books will help the children
10 remember their summer friends

PRACTICAL HELPS IN

Why, they often pick out the

Remember, at, least 30 per cent
possibly 50 per cent, Of the buying
of America is done by the greatest
purchasing agent on earth: The
American woman. So, surely, il
behooves us merest men copywriters
to study her, her views, her likes,
her dislikes when preparing any kind
of advertising matter that pertains
directly or remotely to woman and
the homeland what kind, you
might say, does not so apply7
Once upon time a writer Of wo-
mans wear copy had big introduce
ton to write for page ad for a
sale of silk stockings. Now, silk
stockings, somehow, interest men
as well as women. And this copy
man did lay himself out on this
copy.
But see how he failed to get the
woman's viewpoint. In his mere
man innocence, the poor dub actual
ly thought he should argue with a
woman that she should own and
wear silk stockings. He actually
planned to use lot of expensive
space to that end. Fortunately, he
showed the proof to business wo-
man. She laughed at him.
Heavens abovel Why, don't you
know that every woman is crazy to
wear nothing but silk stockings and
silk underwear? Do you think you
have to argue her into thatq
"You are the limit Just tell her
that this line will wear well and give
her the attractive prices. She knows
more about silk stockings in her lit
tie finger than you ever will in your
whole body"
: And what applied in this instance
to silk stockings applies to hun
dreds of lines. Ask your wife, your
sister, your sweetheart what kind of
copy appeals to her.
You will get lot Of practical ad.

reel. Among the things you will
learn are: Women like pictures,
Then she can make a mighty good
mental picture of the waist, hat,
MILDLY, bathing suit, shoes, tennis
racquet, golfing outft-whatever it
is you may describe in your copy
In other words, not only study
the article-of course, or you can
rot sell it in print-but also study
the viewpoint of the women who will
read the copy. Talk to your friends
ana women relatives along this
most practical line every possible
chance you have.
For, as stated in the beginning,
the American woman is the greatest,
most important, most lavish, yet
shrewdest, purchasing agent on the
face of the globe.
