Everyday Psychology
Temperament and Jobs.
RY DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.

All jobs include the workers tempera-
mental attitude toward his work and its
surroundings. If We could only read
temperament, we would find the key to
success in most employments. But who
knows what temperament is? We see
it at work in everyday life, and there
are a few rather general conclusions
about temperament and daily work that
appear to be valid.
Some persons love to take q risk, to
gamble. They soon tire of any job, and
because they are bored display signs of
their uneasinesS and soon fall out with
the boss. Such persons find in new sur
roundings their best incentives to work.
If you have that sort of temperament,
look for employment that carries with
it the element Of change. Travelling
statesmen are usually recruited from the
chance taking class.
The other big temperament class Is
made up of those who dote on certain
ties. They have even temperaments,
are non-excitable. They will put up
with almost any situation so long as 1t
assures them a livelihood. Any COM
petent clerk or Office worker belongs to
this class.

boudoir that would bring
Berry's voice to her.
Two hours below Albany,
Jenny placed her hand in its
white crinkled gauntlet, along
her daughters arm.
"Jennifer dear, we'll go down
along the West Side, by way
of the river drive. SO we can
drop Ramon at his apartment
before we go home"
Damn! Damn! Damn! That
would delay them 10 minutes.
Her fingers ached for the pink
enamel telephone =.
On the other hand. to Jenny,
the river drive meant a detour,
and 10 minutes longer with
Ramon.
It was not quite dusk when
the car slid UP before the doors
that had been copied from the
Florentine Campanile. A mes
senger boy was running down
the steps.
WAS that telegram for me?"
she asked.

Would Leave Home
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

am a woman Of 81, and have
a little boy Of 6, who is a great
care to me. He needs the at
tention of both parents all the
time, but gets precious little
care from his father. My in
laws say I'm jealous of my hus-
band, but he did me a great
wrong in going with another
woman at one time, and can't
trust him or forget that. He
never takes me out with him,
but always goes alone, and I
surely get lonesome in the eve
nings and would like to have
him a good pal.
I have been separated from
him a number of times, always
taking the child with me. If
you ever saw my little boy you
would understand that I could
not take him, with me if I in
tend to earn my own living. I
have decided at last to leave
home and let my husband care
for the child, but it would
worry me to death if I thought
he was not well-cared for.
Please give me some advice.
I certainly need it,.
PRISCILLA.
You have not been frank
enough in your letter for me to
give you any very substantial

mo"
IF you don't mind, mother,
I'll rush on up to my rooms to
rest-alone-"
Eyes, Jennifer."
An UnaccOuntable Impulse
For some reason which she
was later never able to analyze,
Jenny, instead of following Jen-
infer to the left, and thereby
avoiding the chance Of an i'm
mediate encounter with Rarick,
went up by the right of the
broad staircase, and, trailing
her heavy motor coat back off
her shoulders, hurried to the
library.
It's beautiful quality of dusk,
as she entered, was being
ratified into by the mechanical
organ, which was repeating the
famous "Ah! fors lui" of Vio-
letta, as if some one had for
gotten to turn it off, the
stained-glass story of La
Traviata" marching before
Rarick, who was seated at the
far end of the room in his
unicorn chair, a telegram
crushed in the hand from
which he had just read it.
On one of those flashes out

of the blue about which one
hears but which one 50 seldom
sees, Jenny locked at her hus-
band calmly and said. Avery
is dead"
He began to nod his head, re-
garding her all the while with
eyes made out of two white
CHIMES.
She started to laugh. She
could not stop. She could not
stop. because Rarick, sitting
there, could not seem to stop
nodding. And, nodding, didn't
he look for. all the world like
the bisque bull that used to
stand on the mantelpiece il the
pressed-brick house of her par
ents in st. Louis? It had been
a black-and-white china bull,
with a head that nodded. Every
time there were to be guests,
her mother used to tiptoe in
just before arrivals and start
it nodding.
Rarick, replying to her that
Avery was dead, kept on nod
ding like that biSque bull.
