Looking Up References.

it practically. Sentiment. prejudice and
all other personal feelings should be
left in the background Have faith in
hume nature, but check up vour faith
when circumstances warrant it.
In seeking references to establish
financial responsibility or honesty, avoid
social references of any sort. Refer
ences from minister or religious leader
of any creed may be charitable rather
than exact. Friends are never loath to
give references. They are usually glad
to render a service which costs them
nothing. but which may cost you lot.
Seek references from people who have
employed the person being looked up"
or firms or institutions which have had
business relations with her. These rela-

she might make them move easily if
she snapped the cords, both sides, that

something wrong with them They
may need just little attention-per-
haps little planning at some point
where they don't move freely.
Another housewife declares that
opening cans is her hardest job. That's
all because she hasn't a convenient can
opener Some women like one kind

when you feel unduly tired you should
sit down and decide just what part
of the work has tired you 1t is, 90
times out of 100. something that
