SUCCESS SECRETS

Perhaps among your friends or acquaintance there is one
who for her years is usually young in manner and appear
ance. How does she do it, you wonder. Scarcely a tell.tale
wrinkle on her face and such a youthful walk; so much vital
iy and spring in it. A leaf from her notebook would prob
ably contain these valuable hints.
Be enthusiastic. 1t is the most direct road to the fountain
Of youth.
Have a hobby. Keep vitality interested in something and
you will always be interesting to some one.
Don't fret. 1t never pays. Worrying may be necessary
at times, but fretting never.
Or is the friend or acquaintance you particularly admire
one who is universally popu1arG Children love her and to old
people she is a bit of sunshine. Study her notebook and see
if you don't find among her rules for popularity, these:
Be tactful. Don't offend and hurt other people by blunt
ness and lack of consideration and respect for their feelings,
Be kind and thoughtful-which really means be unselnsh'
Endeayor to get the other persons pointlof view. When
you do that there can be no discord and interest IN the other
person is always awakened.
Or is it that extremely capable friend of yours whom you
will never cease to wonder at? She can cook the best dinner
imaginable, make the best looking hat or grace a social rune
ton with the greatest ease of anyone you know. Put her any
where and she excens. Wherein lies the key to her varied
abilities? Should you read over her notebook perhaps you
might find a notation something like this:
large supply of good, plain commonsense. Ihere Is
nothing like to carry one through all phases OF life.
How about your Have you any definite rules that you
try to live up toY Perhaps you would be happier and more
useful if you had.

Cause of CONFUSION

IA CONFUSION is a temporary loss
of consciousness \ associated with

muscles of the body" Delicate chill
dren are subject to them, also chill
dren who had had a bad start, and
whose bottle feelings are far from
ideal. Certain diseases may be ush-
cred in with convulsions-pneumo-
MIA, meningitis, infantile paralysis,
etc. In fact any disease accompan-
fed by high temperatures and when
the child is of nervous "conVulslve'
temperament may bring on spasms.
In some children the ~overeating
of pie, cake, fruit, cookies may SO up
set the digestion that they will be
attacked by high fevers and convul-
sions. In children who + subject
to them whenever fever is present
one should be more than careful to
keen the fever below the danger
point, and to always take the pre-
caution to put the child to bed and
clean the bowl tract with cool enc
ma or a physic as soon as he shows
any predisposition to fever, from
hatever cause. Naturally, it goes

Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret of keeping young is to feel
young-to do this you must watch your
liver and bowels--there's no need of
having a sallow complexion-dark rings
under your eyes-pimples-a bilious
look in your face-dull eyes with no
sparkle. Your doctor will tell youninety
per cent Of all sickness comes from
inactive bowels and liver.
Dr.. Edwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable com
pound mixed with olive oil to act on the
liver and bowels, which he gave to his
patients for years.

stitute for calomel. T gentle in their
action yet always effective. They bring
about that natural buoyancy which all
should enjoy by toning up the liver and
clearing the system of impurities.

scientist of the nineteenth century.

Spencer believed it her duty TO help
her son even though she could not

But she was the soul of sincerity,

know that his intellectual pursuits
were not exactly approved of by her.
However, she was a woman whose

health, and they often felt the pinch
of poverty. But she was
known to complain, bearing her trou-
bles with patience and fortitude. She
was always ready to sacrifice herself
TO- others without making a dramatic
gesture about it, and she was com
pletely conscientious in the discharge
of what she saw as her duty.
Physically she was an attractive
woman, with a slender figure and a
decidedly pretty face. One commen-
tator wrote of her that although it
was never developed, her writing
(meaning lettcrs) had a clear style
and a felicity of expressions fact
that would no doubt have shocked

Repaper the Mess Hall

Now we know what the source of
all the divorce trouble is.
We had been going on serenely be-
lieving that THE Other Woman"
"Incompatibility," Failure to Sup
port" and the rest of the lawyers
jargon were at least contributory
causes.
All these appear to be mere cam
outage. The real offender is nothing
so complex, being nothing more or
less than the dining-room paper.
Take the word Of an expert der"r
ator for It.. She says wrong
are responsible for the rambu'
state of mind affected by In II
husband toward matrimony.
Husband, for instance, 10,
like red. Certain other oh.
creatures dislike red also.
Haunted too gayly In a pasture patch.
The first thing a bride should
study is her husbands color prefer
ences, rather than his taste in bis
cults.
Biscuits are a vain, transitory
thing, while the dining-room paper
we have with us always.
Repapering the mess hall is the
soothing advice which will give di-
vorce judges long vacations and
make work for the honest laboring
nan besides.
But care must be exercised lest the
new paper contains some of the ar
tistic sins of the old.
A husband who doesn't care much
for the country won't be thrilled by
a dense forest growing out of the
plate rail. He may not care for pol
lyanna parrots swishing their tails
into the row of stems still retained
for decorative purposes.
Anyway, the advice is worth think
ing about. Try 1t on your landlord.
