WHEN you are going to do a thing. do it gracious1y.
For graciousness is the meringue on the lemon pie of
life that gives it sweetness and blandness. 1t is the blue
ribbon tied about the nosegay of kindly deeds. 1t is the pink
mosquito netting over the basket of knotty and worm-eaten,
half-ripe peaches that makes them sting out of no" and
makes yes a pea lof look like fruit from the Orchards of

And don't you know people who never help anybody in
trouble without going over the whole ltany of their failures,
and mistakes. and shortcomings? Perhaps the reason why
there is so little gratitude is because most generosity is so
grudgingly bestowed.
And don't you know a few people who give themselves
with their gifts, who show such a pleasure in doing you n
kindness that they make you feel that you are bestowing n
favor upon them in permitting them to serve you, that they
make a ten cent present of more value in your eyes than n
limousine or a tiara would be from the ungracious?
Perth Amboy evening news., 1923-11-07

Don't you remember the gratitude that you felt toword som
old relative when you were young, who would slip a few dollars i

forget those who helped you, not so much with money as with sr
and understandng-who did not make you feel that you were a dow
outer oil whom they were bestowing aims, but as a brother and sst
had stumbled on the hard road, and to whom they were just reachi
a sustaining hand?

There's a deal of difference in having a woman say Ia you: Say
Sally l am your best friend, and I am telling you this for your good
but don't you know that people are laughing at you because you max
ourself a figure of fun wearing fapper clothes that r. too young &c
your granddaughter? Why don't you get you some decent middle-age
clothes?'
And having another woman say: My dear, of course you have sue
personality you can carry off anything, but you look 10 beautiful in dsT
blues, and browns, and blacks, and soft grays made with long lines ts
you ought never to wear anything else. After all, age has nor dBtint
ton than youth If it dresses properly.
But it is in the family circle that graciousness has its
perfect work. Every husband and wife are bound to clash
sometimes in their opinions. One or the other has to give in,
and the trouble is that the one who does give in s. seldom
does it graciously
Haven't you seen men at parties to which their wives had dragget
them against their wills, who gloomed through the whole evening.
Haven't you known a husband who never ceased twiting his wife witt
some mistake she had made, and which he had condoned? Haven't yt
known wives who forgave their husbands for some wrong he had done
them, and then nagged him shout it the balance of their lives?
Haven't you known wives wA ruined their husbands business by re
fusing to adapt themselves to the place in which they lived, and who never
got acquainted or made any friends in a town in which they lived fm
twenty years?
They did their duty, but they did not wreathe 1t about
with graciousness, and so it was dust and ashes. For that
is what life Is without graciousness. A dead, 1avorless thing
just dust and ashes in our teeth. DOROTHY DIX.
