LOOK OUT-NOT IN

Look up, not down is a bit of good advice which we have
all often received. How about look out-not in. Is not that,
too, worthy of our thought A little introspection is a good
thing, but too much introspection is an invariable sign Of an
exaggerated ego.
You are shy, self conscious. You have always had the
idea that your selfconsciousness was due to your extreme
humility. Not SO. It is rather a case Of exaggerated selfim-
portance. When you enter a crowded room remember that
people are not nearly as concerned with your appearance,
what you say, your manner and conduct as you think they
are. Forget about yourself. Get the habit Of looking at others
If you would overcome your circumstances. Look out
not in.
Then there is the type of person who is so consumed with
se1f-pity-due to continual MISUNDERSTANDING inward
that their lives and every one with whom they come In con-
tact is made miserable. If they would direct part at least
of that senergy in thought and interest for other ~people-f
they would look out not always inflow much happier they
would make others as well as themselves.
The person who continually looks in has never learned to
be impersonal. Such a type is touchy, representative, al
ways looking for, so of course always finding, something to
be hurt about.
Can't you see how unhappy and unsuccessful the per
son who always looks In rather than out, will be IN the world.
Look %out-not in.

And SO, every day, dressed in pure
white with her gray hair Gaping
a face lit by a happy smile. she
walks among them down the other
wise gloomy corridors.
They like to tell the story of Leo.
Leo, i'll in the prison hospital, was
condemned to die-of tuberculosis.
Mother Smith did all she could for
him on that last day. and when she
finally left late at night, told attend
ants to phone her il Leo wanted
anything.
He awoke with a raging fever,
and a craving for-an orange. They
phoned Mother Smith. She left her
bed, dressed, and drove q long ways
to get one for the dying boy.
And then, they like to tell of the
time she crossed the prison court
yard with only a prisoner as an es-
cort, in order to watch the men at
work in the mill. Never before had
a woman been in the courtyard or
shops.
The prisoners will tell you that

Men stopped to watch. Some wept
unashamed. That's what her i'm
piled confidence in them meant.

Constipation Remedies for Older
Children
When infants are so tiny that
milk is their only article of diet,
little can be done for obstinate con-
stipation unless one is fortunate
enough to strike the cause Of the
constipation and alter the formula.
With older children it Is different.
Very much can be done through the
diet and constipation need never be
incurable when all kinds of fruit
and vegetables can be used as an
aid. In fact constipation then. ar
CUES that the mother is not paying
as much attention to diet as she
should, OF does not understand its
uses.
All whole grain cereals are help
ful, especially all the whole wheats
because OF the bran content. There
Is nothing better, more nutritious. or
nicer tasting than cracked wheat.
Next to it perhaps oatmeal Is the
best all around general diet. II the
children like other cereals use 8
tablespoon or so of bran on the hot
porridge. Bran used daily Is an al
most sure cure for constipation.
All vegetables, especially turnips
and carrots and those containing
much roughage should be included
in the menu every day. The rough
age has no value as an article OF
nutrition but It supplies the c

companion, and she started hin
along the path OF political interest
It was from her that he inherited
and by her that he was encouraged
In, his impatience with fraud, and in

he grew older, she directed his stud

ence. and did everything III her
power to foster the budding inter-
est.
1t was to her early training that

Swapping Husbands

Swapping Husbands
An Ohio woman wants to trade
her husband FOR a worker"
She sent a want ad to her favorite
paper which read like this:
"Wanted-To swap a refined, neat
and clean gentleman, well educated.
for a real, commonplace man, who
is willing to work and support a good
Christian woman of middle age also
able to work, but not able to sup
port a man."
1t is curious how particular wo-
men are getting to be. The maya
zines devoted to women's interests
nowadays are full of stories oncern-
ing the scarcity of men eligible to
become Grade A husbands. Yet this
good Christian woman comes along
and wants q change.
Having no more information
concerning the incumbent's virtues
other than those pleasantly enumer-
ated in the want ad, we may infer
that the meat, educated gentleman"
was lazy.
Laziness is a purely relative term,
OF course. A meat, educated and re-
fined gentleman" who is above show
cling coal and snow in the winter
time, or moving the lawn In sum-
mer, probably would be regarded as
lazy, not only by his wife, but by
public opinion in general.
Regardless of the merits of this
specific case, however, there Is a
distinct sign of the times to be read
in this woman's public listing OF her
husband as unsatisfactory.
1t shows that women are no longer
content with mates who are merely
ornamental. No matter how neat
and refined and sweet, they simply
must know how to do some sort of
useful work in order to justify their
existence.
If this keeps up much longer there
will have to be a new husband-swap-
ping counter established in the var
ious women's exchanges throughout
the country.

Use OF Ounces

Perhaps you have a ounce bush
In your back yard. If so you are
lucky for ounces are used for all

they make quite as good salads as

like them for sauce"

A strong resemblance, both In
physical and mental characteristics,
existed between the great Italian
fighter and reformer, Joseph MAJ
zini. and his mother. Although the
Mazzini family was in comfortable
circumstance, the mother, a strong,
broad-minded, highly intellectual
woman, did not believe in letting life
pass by her children without giving
them any realization of its difficult
ties and dangers.
She talked to them as to adults,
and brought them up, according to
the biographers, to bear the brunt Of
life. She was unlike most Italian
mothers, who are inclined to pamper
their children and sentimentalize
over them. She loved her little
brood devotedly, especially the boy.

she had none of the weakness which
results in spoiled children.

WAX IS PRODUCT or INSECTS
Deposited on Trees and Gathered
in Its Season.

White wax, one of the most impor
tant exports of the province of Szech-
wan, in China, is chiefly found in the
districts Of Kiating. Chiewei and Ipin,
and along the Yangtze river in the
vicinity of these places. 1t is a sub
stance deposited on trees by insects
known as wax insects. Once wear
in March-they are collected from
the regions on the border of Yunnan
by the waX-worm raisers, and are
placed on pollarded trees, either ash
or privet, which are mostly grown in
Kiating and neighb0ring districts.
Speed is essential in the removal
of these insects, or they would hatch
out before they get to the wax dis
tricts, and would thus be wasted.
Therefore. the coolies generally travel
in relays so as to reach the destina-
ton in time for the Matching When
the moulting period is over. the worms
begin to deposit the wax on the leaves
of the trees. This process continues
up to the end of August, when the
wax is collected. After dissolving in
boiling water, it is usually moulded
into cakes Of various sizes and shapes
