CONTROL YOUR TEMPER IN TRYING TIMES

CONTROL YOUR TEMPER IN TRYING TIMES
You admire the who in trying times controls his
emotions
You have contempt for the who flies in a rage and
wants to fight.
But know that in ordinary argument you can
not control yourself and for that your best friends
often treat you with silent neutrality rather than put up
with your intolerance.
Loud talk challenge to fight to carry point when
hard pressed is foolish when needs brains instead to
combat the other fellow.
1t true, isn't it, that too easily nsulted and
are too inclined to make personal matter of things
which applied to you in general way.
You good natured and affabe till you are crossed
then you show what really side you would prefer
to keep dark.
Everytlme become angry and say what an excited
uncontrolled mind suggests you have weakened yourself to
all those who heard the outburst.
For years you may live highly respected person. be-
Ieved to possess the traits Of nobet manhood but one dis
play OF temper reveals nature which is mean cruel and
wicked ~
/ Control your temper.

them, and until
 that day I never appreciated the prob lems of a saIeswoman with the public. Many of the people who went through the department came merely out or curiosity, wishing to see the animals in the form of the so-called society women acting as saleswomen. On the other hand, many went through who did not know of the change that had been made for the day, and who really were prospective buyers, or, as l discovered, make-believe buyers-people who would try on every hat in the place and, one could tell from the beginning, had really no intention of taking any. My sym pathy for the saleswomen increased on account of the extraordinary and un- necessary rudeness of so many of the women.
 A Boomerang
 It is a curious thing that people can not realize that inconsiderateness and rudeness towards others is boomerang. Certainly nothing is ever gained by 1t and much unpleasantness is incurred m return The buyers relationship with saleswomen is, naturally, of 8 rather iInpersonal character, though if you are in the habit of going to certain store OlLcu, duu udFlAS luc sduiC oo1Co you rather naturally become interested in her. It is good taste to give your favorite sa1eswomen and your mani- curst and hair-dresser a little. present for Christmas-not money, but per sonal gift. They will appreciate that a great deal more than money, for it is the thought and the personal touch of it that will give them their pleasure as much as the actual value of the gift.
 A Silly Idea
 Many people make the mistake of not giving presents because. they feel that they cannot give valuable ones. This is silly, for there is no question (though it is bana1 remark) that if the person to whom the gift is made is the right kind of person the spirit behind the gift will count as much as the actual gift.
 Speaking of etiquette at the hair dresser's, I would give one word of warning to girls having their hair waved and their hands manicured: Don't talk to the hair-dresser or manicurst tor with a friend in front of them) about your friends and acquaintances. You never can tell who is ingthe next booth {! A gossip may be sitting there. Be sides it does not make a good impress sion on any one sitting in one booth to hear some girl or woman in the next booth talking freely of personal things either in connection with herself or others One can be pleasant, interested, even friendly toward the manicurist or hair7dresser without making this mis- take.

strategy in announcing that he would

give him some present On the way
he met the kings brother, who was

licitously inquired what 'Mashin

his majesty. DR.. Rock gave him one
Of his French collector guns and some
$50 cartridges. To the chief of the
Lushi tribe at Youngning he gave
the same token of tribute. He fig
ures that the pictures he was able
to get, through the more friendly
feeling engendered, amply paid the
cost of these guns, which were not
expensive in the first place and were
practically worn out To those off,
cials they were wonderful toys and

took pains to retain one English COL
lector gun. to shoot at ferocious dogs
which attacked him along the road
One chief reason why DR.. Rock had
trouble with the mails was on &C
count of the crude scales with which
his letters were weighed. These
scales consist of wooden stick with
scratches at irregular intervals, ano

to it which is showed along the stick

from regions where few collections

from the high mountain ranges of
northwest Yunnan. the Salween-
Mekong divide, and the Likiang snow
range, the southwestern part of
Szechuan and other regions Of Yum

The collection contains land and

region.

Dr. Rock said, 1T will take some
persuasion to make me take this

shall be glad to give this part of
the world wide berth for some time
to come" he is now preparing to go
back there. He plans TO explore
western China for plants and to study

become as much interested in an

The Cedars of Lebanon.

THE famous cedars of Lebanon,
which are so frequently mentioned
in the Bible as symbols of power,
longevity and prosperity, and con-
tinuously sung by poets and extolled
by artists because of their stately

of from 60 to so feet, their branches
and foliage covering a compass Of

the height of the trees.
Although the number of the famous

number still exist. The best known
