TAR better for the boy whose parents
l. occasionally assert their own wants;
who consider themselves now and then,
instead of considering him.
Far better that he should be denied
Mt least three quarters of the things
he fancirs he wants.
He will never meet anybody like his
parents after he leaves his home. His
little ideas and desires will mean moth
ing to strangers. They will be out of
sympathy with his whims. and intOl-
Grant of his tantrums,
lie will first snnrl, then plead, in
vain; and by the time he realizes that
the world is not at all the sort of
place he thought 1t was. others will
have got all the opportunities that
might have been his.
Neither complete ScltishnesS nor COM
plete unselfShness is desirable, If we
expect to get much out of life.
TINSELFISIINESS brings perhaps
~ more happiness, but less actual ac-
complishment. SeRshncss brings only
misery and disilusionment, unless it is
confined to n very proper and natural
desire to look out for ones own inter
csts in n somewhat hostile world,
But we can consider our own inter
ests without injuring those of Others,
and without being put down by our
aCauaintanCeS aS spoiled and seligh and
therefore to be avoided.

APPEALS FOR RUSSIAN
CHILDREN

New York, Dec. 22.-Callng upon
the American people to translate the
moral and spiritual ideals OF the
ashington Conference into practice,
DR.. John Fl. Finley, chairman OF the
Commission on international Justice
and Goodwin Of the Federal Council
of the Churches of Christ in America,
issues an appeal for gifts to the Rus
sion Children's fund.
"Let US render actual service TO
our fellow men in direst need" he
SAYS. His statement is as follows: !,
1.-THE Commission on international
Justice and Good Will believes that
it should do more than seek war
less world" by the appeal OF words.
II has therefore set up Committee
on Mercy and Relief; for the churches
can best create goodwill and brother
hood by revealing these qualities IN
service.
"The first task comes from Mr..
Herbert Hoover, head of the Amer
lean Relief Administration, who IS
also a vice-president of the Federal
Council of Churches. He tells US that
the churches did not fail, when the
call came to help the children OF Cen
trail Europe. Through the years the

The Chinaman could speak but
little English, and the Englishman
could speak no Chinese; nevertheless,
the dinner went off agreeably:
There was one dish that pleased
the Englishman. 1t was rich stew
of onions. pork, mushrooms, and a
dark. tender. well-flavored meat that
tasted like duck.
The Englishman ate heartily OF
this stew. Then he closed his eyes.
lifted his hands and shood his head
with an air of ecstacy.

he said interrogatively: "Quack'

calls will come to you this year. Ihis
appeal is for Russia.
"God has never given US quite sucn
a task before. This Commission be-
lieves that this is the way to help
solve the confusing and battling
world problem of Russia-by love and
service. Here is an opportunity to
translate the moral and spiritual
ideals of the Washington Conference
into practice Let US render actual
service to our fellow-men in dlrest
need.
"The relief made available by these
funds will be distributed under the
supervision of a representative Of the
Federal Council on Fir. Hoover's staff
in Russia, through the well-establish-
ed agencies Of the American Relief
Administration and the American
Friends Service Committee, who are
in the closest cooperation.
"Those who cannot fully respond
to this appeal at Christmas may note
that our service in Russia will have
to be, in. any case, a task of many
months.

! heart of America this urgent and
pitiful appeal for Russia, we should

WHY WOMEN GET

Are not women naturally as light,
hearted, brave and hopeful as men!
Yes, certainly; but woman's organ
ism is essentially different from. a
man's,-more delicate, more sensitive
and more exacting. Women in delicate
health are more dependent, more merry
Gus, more irritable and more despond-
ent. When woman develops nervous
ness, sleeplessness, bacl.aches, head
aches, draggingdown pains and melan-
cholia she should lose no time in CIV
