yellow, while the anthers and pollen
are soft orange There are four
petals and flve-lobed calyx.
When the flower opens. the five
stamens are huddled together. The
upper three are slightly bearded below
the anthers, the lower two are longer
but have no sign of fuZz on their fila

them.
When the bee comes collecting. she
clings for support to the wool on tht
three short stamenS whose anthers are
covered with the pollen she seeks. As
she moves about she collects much
pollen on her undercoat. and as size
visits nearby blossom the stigma
touches the bees body and gets III"
pollen before she is able to get busted
with pollen from the second flower. SO
the three stamens furnish the guest
with food while the two others dust
her we'll with pollen and thus cross
fertilization is effected.

criticizing the COW, my tongue began
to burn and by the time l reached
home and was able to remove the
burning felt from my tongue. I had

Everyday Psychology
BY DR.. JESSE W. sPROWLs.
Shy People.

1t is said, probably enormously, that
shy people stay close to walls and
structures as they walk along the
street
1t is said, probably not so enormously,
that shy people are likely to turn out
to be bachelor men ard women. that
they talk slowly and quietly, that they
are likely to develop cases of round
shoulders. and SO on.
1t is said that shy persons go in for
theosophy as religious cult. follow
the stock market and even become the
more successful curb brokers. turn out
to be the great explorers of lands and
the sciences. create the greatest works
of art, write the best poems, carry heavy
life insurance policies. are able to show
the biggest bank balances, make the
feweSt mistakes in matters Of practical
judgment And then 1t il said that shy
persons sometimes become the most
adept Of Swindlers. commit the so-called
perfect crimes" swell the ranks of the
miSe-ly.
What is the psychological makeup of
shy person? What he does makes lit
tie difference. That can be anything.
The big item in the psychology of shy
ness is the question Of how the shy per-
son goes about what he does And how?
BY always trying Some way to overcome
anxieties or what are commanly called
fears. He turns away slightly from re-
ality in all its forms The big passion
in his life Is to reduce chance to GER
tainty.
