MANNERS, MARRIAGE

I'D 1t ever occur to you that man,
ners have quite as much TO do with
happiness in marriage as temperament
ana that many separation laid TO in
compatibility was due more than 10
anything else TO plain bad manners on
the part OF the two persons most con.
eerned?
And good manners are made IN OF
attention 10 lot of seemingly little
trining things. For Instance, there IL
the matter OF interrupung. Every
one knows this is bad form. and mos,
persons guard against interrupting
mere acquaintance, associates In bust
ness or society; bur they are not 50
careful about interrupting members o.
their own family. And time comes
after You have been interrupted again
and again, when 1t begins to irritate
TO the point OF evaporation. Then
there is the habit of contradictlng. You
guard carefully against fatty contra.
dieting the man or woman whom you
wish favorably TO impress. yet there are
good many husbands and wives who
do not hesitate to contradict each other
Whenever their own opinion differs
with that of the other.
Now. don't think just because youl
husband doesn't retel against your
habit Of fatty contradicting him, that
he really is insensitive TO ii. II irrI.

You did not have this bad habit. So

the first time l ever heard that: YOU

and contradictions are boresome 10 the
guests and irritating and embarrassing
to the host who is trying TO tell the
story. And usually the point raised by
the contradiction was some trivial mat.

this rig just TO please the Dummies"
Jack Rabbit from long experience
knew that Mr.. Jox never went to any
trouble for anyone but himself, and
though he did not understand why
MIR. Fox was so very kind and polite
he decided 10 go and be on his guard
all the time.
Mrs. Rabbit and the little Rabbits
put on their hoods and coats and nit
tens and all of the Rabbit family We're
soon tucked on the sled. Jack Rabbit
picked up the reins and OF trotfed Mr..
Fox over the snow, the ears OF the
little rabbits sticking right up straight
as they few along.
Mr.. Fox was SO sure that he was
smarter than Jack Rabbit that he did
not notice anything he disi-he was
too busy thinking of his clever plan
but If he had kept his eyes on Jack
he would have seen him tuck under
the straw on the sled a nice long
whip, but he didn't and so he dashed
over the hill near the farm.
When lie reached there he began to
prance and caper in way that threat
ened to upse. the sled and Jack Rabbit
began TO think there was something
wrong, and that 1t was time TO use the
whip.
Whoa there, whoa." he said, giving
the reins sharp twitch, and then,
TO the great surprise OF Mr.. Fox, right
over his head and neck he felt a sharp
sting. Mr.. Fox was smart enough to
know what was going on and that for
once Jack Rabbit had outwitted him,
so he pretended he was cutting up to
make the little Bunnies laugh, but
he didn't go any farther from home.
He turned right around and ran back
and he was very careful not to cut up.
THAT was a splendid ride you gave
U.S. said Mrs. Rabbit as she and the
Dummies jumped TO the ground, and
Jack Rabbit thanked him also, but
there was a twinkle in his eyes that
told Mr.. Fox that though he did not
know just his scheme he had been too
clever for him this time and had
spoiled il.

SALTS FINE FOR
ACHING KIDNEYS
We eat too much meat which
clogs Kidneys, then the
Back hurts

Most folks forget that the kidneys
like the bowels get sluggish and
clogged and need a flushing occas-
sionally. else we have backache and
dull misery in the kidney region,
severe headaches, rheumatic twinges,
torpid liver, acid stomach, sleepless-
ness and all sorts of bladder dis
orders.
You simply must keep your kid
neys active and clean, and the mo-
ment you feel an ache or pain in the
kidney region. get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from any good drug store
here, take tablespoonful in a glass
Of water before breakfast for a few
days and your kidneys will then act
tine This famous salts is made from
he acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with Hthia, and is harmless
to flush clogged kidneys and stimu-
late them to normal activity. 1t also
helps neutralize the acids in the urine
so it no longer irritates, thus helping
70 relieve bladder disorder.
Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which everybody should
take now and then to keep their kid
neys clean, thus avoiding serious COM
plications.
A well-known local druggist says
he sells lots of Jad Salts TO folks who
believe in overcoming kidney trouble
while it is only trouble.

FIRST CALLS

Rigorous law is often rigorous injustice.
Terence.
REHlND almost all our modern
rules of etiquette there is q basis
of common sense. Sometimes 1t is
hard to see; but usually, IL you delved
deep enough, you would see that the
way laid down by that particular rule
was really the most convenient.
The rules of etiquette for first calls
are quite clearly rules of convenience.
Thus the old resident calls upon the
newcomer because 1t is her place, as
1t were, TO extend the courtesies and
hospitality of the neighborhood TO the
newcomer. The newcomer would feel
timid at introducing herself to the
drawing rooms of people who have
lived so much longer in a neighbor-
hooGl but the very fact that a person
has come to live in new neighbor.
hood is usually indicative that she has
left old ties and friends behind her
and would like to take UP new ones.
In Washington. official etiquette re.
quires that the newly arrived officials
pay their respects by calling first at
the White House, then upon the vice
president and other persons in high
position, rather than wait for these
Important persons to call upon them
a custom that time has proved to be
the best one.
II person moves from one neigh
borhood to another in the same city or
town-what about first calls then?
/ This is a question that is sometimes
asked. In most cases there would be
little excuse or necessity for the older
residents in the new neighborhood to
make any calls, because the chances
are that the newcomer then has &C.
quaintances a-plenty in the same
town. 1t would sometimes seem a lit
tie intrusive for an old resident to take
this opportunity to know person with
whom she might not ever have had an
opportunity of exchanging calls in any
other way. In such case, then, II
would be somewhat better to wait I'M
til the newcomer in the neighborhood
asks you to call before you do so. At
any rate, you are not obliged in any
way to do so. In fact, even when a
total stranger comes 70 live near you,
there Is no social necessity for making
a first call. In large cities one almost
never makes first call OF this sort,
simply because a newcomer is stran-
ger. Even in small towns il i not a
matter of social obligation However,
it Is necessary TO return the first call
within ten days, whether the recipient
of 1t wishes to continue TIE acquaint-
ance or not. Later calls ncea net be
returned, but il is extremely rude not
to acknowledge that first call.
