rious weakness in Helen's nature
which makes her unable to cope
with these goat-getting Incidents.
Fate didn't ordain that she
should be bowled over by the
smell of tuberoses or the taste Of
tapioca pudding.
Nor did it make her q particle
more sensitive to such matters
than the ordinary citizen.
But Helen herself allowed her.
self to surrender to these things.
They bothered her She did not
like to be bothered. But she wasn't
brave enough to face that bother
or laugh 1t off. Instead she made
q virtue Of 1t. She said to her.
self, in effect:
''I'm so high strung and sensi-
tive that I can't stand things
other people stand. TIL have to
avoid lot of things other people
wouldn't ever notice."
So she started a general pro-
gram of Avoidance
In other words, she began
coddling her goat.
And now she is so busy coddling
goats that she has little time left
for normal living.
Women are peculiarly apt to
coddle goats. In their secluded
lives they lose a sense Of values
and magnify personalities. It salts
fies their egotism to exploit their
sensitiveness and capitalize their
timidity, for thereby they gain
certain attention. But it's costly
attention, for it eventually makes
them just about as popular as a
dose Of pink eye.
Don't coddle your goat. Don't
allow yourself to sidestep things
because they have unpleasant as
sociations. If a certain house or
tree or person or perfume or song
gets your goat. DELIBERATELY
PUT YOURSELF IN CONTACT
WITH THAT HOUSE OR TREE
OR PERSON OR PERFUME OR
SONG UNTIL YOU'VE ELIMIN-
ATED THAT UNPLEASANT AS
ISOLATION. Otherwise life will
be one goat-getting performance
after another and you'll be so
busy tending goats that you won't
have time to act human.

Bunkers ON the Course Of Love
T Owe is on the wane, when you
IL discover that you prefer a
full nights sleep to a few extra
kisses under the spring moon.
Holding on to a dollar, holding
on to q lover, and holding on to a
servant have come to be the three
Herculean struggles of woman s
life.
Before marriage a man may be
as punctual as the office clock;
but, after marriage, he seems to
run his life according to the vaga-
ries Of q temperamental wrist
watch.
This bare-legged fad is going to
be a shock to many a man who
has gotten so accustomed to look
ing at an expanse Of smooth, deli
cate siIken knees that he imagines
the Lord made, women that way.
Thoughts are things-arld some.

When a husband slzids from the

women has thrown In his way. No
man ever hunts up another woman
just in order to have two Of them
telling him the bitter truth about
himself.
Sometimes black is 30 becoming
to a woman that her mourning
veil looks more like a gesture Of
coquetry or a symbol OF hope
than like an emblem Ct grief.
A woman can SO right on loving
a man, no matter how much or
how long he hurts her heart; but
the moment he offends her imagi-
nation, her vanity or her illusions
he is out of the picture.
One reason why the course OF
love never runs smooth these days,
is because, after the first few
kisses, the man always begins
looking around for a detour.

WITTY do you talk SO much when
w you are trying to impress
others favorably?
Do you feel that to indicate that
you possess considerable knowl-
edge 1t is necessary for you to dis
cuss a little of everything. as fast
as you can?
There are not many persons who
are thorough students of several
deep subjects.
The real studnet knows this.
Therefore, the learned person
whom you wish to impress realizes
that you have touched upon a,
good many matters in your short
conversation and knows that you
cannot be well versed in all of
them.
He is likely to think you are
not very learned in any of them.
Shallowness Is abhorred by the
deep student.
This may be the reason why
you have failed to register with
those whom you have tried hardest
to interest. t
Often the person who talks
least has the most to say that il

Too many words-too little

YOU'RE AS STRONG AS
YOUR GOAT!
You're as strong as the things
that get your goat.
I'm thinking Of Helen Winslow.
Helen Is one of the brightest
women I know and one Of the
incest. Clever, resourceful, gener-
GUS, tolerant, affectionate-she
might be a power in any COM
munity. But Helen is 30 busy
coddling her goat that she hasn't
time to be = power.
Countless things get Helen's
goat.
They began getting it when she
was a little child.
Tapioca pudding-wool stock
ings-big yellow dogs-bald-headed
men-all these things got young
Helen's goat.
These things-or similar irrita-
tions-get most young peoples
goats. But wise parents and
friends usually break up such
"hifalutin' nonsense Helen was
not so fortunate. She was an
only child and ner notions all
were humored. When anything
got her goat, her goat stayed
gotten. Today, at As, she feels
just as bad about tapioca pudding
as she felt at 5.
AS she grew older the range Of
goat-getting increased. Sorrows
came to her-shocks-and each
sorrow and shock set up associa-
tionS which ~thereafter must be
avoided lest they get her goat.
She lost her mother and a little
daughter. The odor of tuberoses
was added to the aversion for

dozen trifles which reminded her
Of some old grief was enough to
ruin q day.
Today Helen's goat has become

her friends avoid her for fear Of
arousing it. 8;
