pleads for a part of their wisdom, that
he, too, may unfalteringly strike the
trail which leads to what the universe
labels success.
Success, like beauty, depends largely
llpon the eve, thought, Imagination and
environment of the individual. To some
success means the acquiring of money;
to others success may produce no re-
ward save the satisfaction of achieve
ment.
It isn't news that there are hundreds
of successful young men in the Ma
tional Capital who have found in the
city ample opportunity to display their
talents. Many of them are independ-
ent business men, who, by arduous eff
fort, have builded organizations worthy
of the city in which they flourish. 1t
is our good fortune to know some Of
them.
Let us interject the observation that
this is not intended to be an inspira-
tional article. If it proves to be, 1t will
be in spite and not because We tried to
make it so.
A successful playwright friend once
modestly accounted for his success by
the simple statement, Don't kid your,
self" While he was writing music and
plays in the clouds his No. los were on
the ground.
Some years ago a 13-year-old lad
came to Washingtc tn go to work. He
had left his home, the Pacific Coast,
in search of something-he didn't know
exactly what. He remained here
short time. and then went into the oil
fields. where life was primitive and his
associates rough, though kindly, souls
in search of adventure.
Sometimes the elimination of adven-
ture was the sight of great gusher
belching forth its wealth of rich oil.
Frequently they were greeted by failure.
The boy loved the life. Eventually
he found his way back to Wash
ington, and eventually entered bust
ness for himself, the dream of many
like him. He lived on sandwiches
and at one time was in debt to
a landlady. Oh. yes, he was. Just like
the boys in the books. He fell in love
! with a charming girl.
One New Year eve he was expected
to take her to a party. He begged to
be excused. He said he had to sit up
with sick friend. This was the truth.
whether you believe it or not. Of
course. it might be mentioned that he
owned no evening clothes, which may
have had something to do with his re-
| luctance to attend function where
all the boy friends would appear en-
rapport with the fashion.
1t was tough break of course. Mar
riage followed courtship and today the
young couple have a beautiful home. a
son and most of the things that the
world regards as representing success.
The other night he said, Don't try to
fool the man in the mirror" His mean
ing was obvious. You may kid others,
but you should never try to kid the man
in the mirror. You are only fooling
yourself. Nothing" he continued, '1s
really important save time. which is the
most important of all things. Clothes,
food, heat and light are the only neces-
sary things; all others are iuxuries.

thing have here to go back to the oil

Straight Talks to Women About Money
BY MARY ELIZABETH ALLEN.

sary, and therefore appreciated things.
Don't buy labels. The label of high
priced shop may be on an article OF
inferior value, or it might be on use
less gift. Don't give labels, and do
your buying quite regardless of them.
If you cannot afford to buy reliable
electric iron or dependable radio, buy
none at all. Just any old thing that
meets with the description of the gift
wanted is not worth the money you
spend for it. Unless you are certain
that the gift bought will give SatiSfac-
ton to use, do not buy it. In every
case try to get your moneys worth to
the last penny.
In the case Of mems gifts many
women are bewildered by their prob
lens. Many women do not know how
to buy mems wear. This applies espe-
cially to unmarried women. Gift GER
tificates are an easy way out, but some
how they seem imperSonal to many OF
us. If you are not able to buy mems
wear with any assurance OF getting
your moneys worth in the gift, buy
something about which you know.
Cigars, silver articles, hairbrushes, slip
pers and the like are always safe
choices.
Your moneys worth in children's
gifts depends upon the circumstances
Of the childs family, the age of the
child and her inclinations. Needy par
ents and their children as well will APP
preciate useful things above all others
| If the parents are of modest circum-
stances or better, you may buy toys OF
| trinkets, and still get your moneys
WORTH Your money is wasted, however
If you buy something which the child
dislikes or has outgrown.
AS for women's gifts. very little need
be said. 1t Is sorry woman who can
not buy with every assurance of getting
her moneys worth something of which
she herself would intellectually APP
prove in every way.

Brave Women and Girls of History
Kady Brownen Accompanied Husband During Civil War
and Was Heroine of a Battle
GLASS.
BY J. p. GLASS.

When the Civil War broke out Robert,
S. Brownell Of Providence, R. l., was
one of the first Of the "three-months"
men to enlist He could not have done
differently with Kady Brownell for
wife.
I'm going, too." said Kady.
And she did Robert having been
put into a company of sharpshooters
of the 1st Rhode Island Infantry, his
wife was allowed to sign up as its color
bearer.
The enlistment officers stared and
objected when Kady presented herself.
Listen to me-" said she. Il know
| more about soldering than any of you"
you"
1t was the truth. Her Scotch father
| had been a soldier in the British Army.
Kady had been born and brought up in
a barracks in South Africa.
At camp in Maryland early in the
Summer of 1861 she determined she
wouldn't be a mere color bearer. She
! engaged in rifle practice with the men,
| and soon became one of the crack shots
| of the regiment.
The Northern Army sets its face to-
ward Richmond, Southern capital, in
| July, but on July 81 suffered the bloody
and humiliating reverse of Bull Run.
| The 1st Rhode Island Sharpshooters
| fed with the rest Panic-Stricken. they
lost order and did not retreat on their
colors. Kady Brownell knew better
than that. While she Stormed at her
poor comrades, she held fast to her
| position. Nor did she shift until the
enemy, advancing to within few hun
| bred yards, began to pour shot and
shell into the retreaters.
A Pennsylvania soldier boy, hurrying
past, seized her by the hand.
Come, sis, there's no use to stay
here Just to be killed." he said. Let's
get into the woods"
They had run only 20 PAGES when a
cannon ball struck the boy full on the
head His shattered skull rested mo-
ment on Kady's shoulder as he fell
dead.
Kady escaped to Arlington Heights,
tortured for the next 80 hours by
stories that her husband had been
killed. But he turned up unframed.
Their enlistments expired in August
They re-enlisted at once in the 5th
Rhode Island, which was sent with the
army of Gen. Burnside into the coun-
try south of Richmond. There in
March, 1852, the battle of Newbern was
fought. Dady was its heroine.
She begged for the privilege of carry
ing the regimental colors as they
stormed the Southern field works. It
was granted-and well that 1t was, too!
AS the various regiments assembled.
the 5th Rhode Island Numbered into
place from . totally unexpected direc-
ton.

Yes, it might be due to your nerves,
Miss c., and nerves can be upset By
prolonged wrong diet and other hy-
gienic slip-ups, such as overemotional-
ism, lack of rest and sleep, etc. But
would have a thorough physical
check-up, if I were you, to rule cut
any organic disturbance, and then. If
necessary, visit a qualified pSychia-
trist to see if there are not some psychic
injuries that are resting in your sub
conscious mind and disturbing you.
Meanwhile it would be a good idea to
tasten yourself in some way. perhaps
to the mattress, either by long strip
of cloth. or by your nightgown, 50 that

Acid Stomach.

Dear Doctor: Many thanks for re-
lieving me of acid stomach. Two doc
tors tinkered vainly, never asking me
how much bread I consumed. Your
column opened my eyes; I stopped eat
ing bread, and 10! the acid vanished,
When I say bread mean more than
q half loaf at a sitting. 1t was a
real mania! MR.. F."
I'm glad you had such success, Nil.
r. Many others could profit by your
example. But you certainly are more
than your share of bread! No wonder
you had acid stomach.
The cereal products are delicious
and wholesome foods, but when used
excessively they unbalance the diet ana
usually cause excess weight; they give
an acid ash, and so tend to give a
dietary acidosis and hyperacidity, as
you have demonstrated. But there is
no reason why you shouldn't have some
bread or other starchy foods, Mr.. F.
Dear Doctor: I have the terrible
habit of walking, and also talking, in
my sleep. Sometimes I am afraid 70
go to bed at night for fear will do
something to harm myself. Could you
tell me what the cause might be, anu
