Sometimes chambers went from house
to house and made tallow candles
while at the homes of their customers.
A thread, or wick, was dipped in
fresh-melted talloW and was raised
to let the tallow cool and harden.
Then there was another dipping,
cooling and hardening. This was
kept up until the candle was thick
enough.
Tallow is taken from the fat of
certain animals, chiefly cattle and
sheep, and there is a "tallow tree"
as well. Present-day candles are COM

or stearin, but some are still made
of talloW or beeSWaX.

Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.

! wanted to do the hunting, not be
hunted.
He raced up the trunks of trees,
leaped from branch to branch and
from tree to tree and bounded along
on the snow, but despite all he could
do, behind him Pekan raced up the
trunks Of those trees a little bit
faster, leaped from branch to branch
and from tree to tree a wee bit more
quickly, and made longer bounds over
the snow. Spite knew that unless he
reached place Of safety soon he
surely would be caught, and, strange
as it may seem, this knowledge made
him more angry than frightened.
Spite was no coward. There are no
towards in the Weasel family. If he
were caught he would fight to the
last breath, even though he knew it
was useless.
IF were only little bigger" he
said to himself If I were only Just
a little bigger he wouldn't make me
run like this"
Spite was making for a certain tree
in which was a hollow, entrance to
which was barely big enough for him
TO pass through. No one any bigger,
though only very little bigger, could
possibly get into it. Once in that hol-
low he would be safe from Pekan.
Spite had started confidently enough.
He hadn't for one instant doubted
that he could get there with ease.
Now he wasn't sure. Pek3n was gain
ing. Do the best he could, Pekan was
gaining.
The fellow is faster than I thought
he was" muttered Spite, making a
long leap from one tree to another.
Il guess it is a good thing for me that
that hollow tree is no farther away
than it is"
II was good thing for him. At
first Pekan had gained but little, but
now he was gaining fast. IN fact, he
was in the same tree with Spite as
the latter raced out on an upper limb
and leaped for the tree in which was
that hollow and safety He had hard
ly landed when Pekan leaped. That
Squirrel he had chased had had no
more narrow escape from Spite than
| ne now had from Pekan. He didn't
have time to turn around before
Pekan was peering in angrily.
Knowing that now he was safe.
Spite no longer knew fear; he was
all anger. He spat viciously at his
big cousin. He snarled and growled,
and Pekan Spat and Snarled and
growled back at him. They said all
the unkind things they could think
of about each other. Each called the
other ugly names. Spite was angry
because Pekan had tried to catch
him and Pekan was angry because
Spite had refused to be caught. A
more spiteful pair than those two
cousins you could not imagine.

Never Licked
BY JOHN BLAKE.

4 S LONG as you can stand and see,
"A don't flop out Of any competition
in which you have entered. II you
| didn't win the one you happened to
be in. you at least have had expert
ence. and without experience there
can be no success.
Keep thinking about your job.
Leave distractions behind. Cultivate
the work habit. You doubtless read
about men who wear themselves out
in the fruitless efforts for success.
! But they are more likely to wear them
selves out by bad habits than by
oVerexertion.
Drop the idea that one of the roads
to success is by learning to play a
crack game of golf. I know a dozen
young fellows who have told me con-
fidently that the best way to get into
business is to be a coming young
golfer-because all the big men" in
the club will look up to you, and per-
haps give you job.
But if big business men were anxious
to distribute jobs among crack golf
ers they would go out behind the
caddy house and distribute employ
ment among the little boys who carry
clubs around.
| Most Of these caddies can outplay
| any member of the club, but that
doesn't lead big business men to put
! them to work in their offices.
| The competition you need to enter
Is competition of brains, not COM
petition for golf scores or success on
a tennis court, nor the knack of pull
ing powerful oar in an eight-oared
shell.
Stardom in these things will get
| you lot Of acclaim, but will not help
you bring home the bread and butter
The one thing you are after, take
1t, is success in your business or your
profession. All right. Go after that
Make it your chief occupation Never
mind showing off," You can dc
that later.
Just now you are young, ambitious
and-I hope-determined. You want
to be important, by and by. That is
a laudable ambition, and I trust that
you will attain it.
But you never will attain it BY
learning to do things with your hands
and muscles.
What will get you into the limelight
that you crave will be your brains, Il
you have any, and use them in the
way intended when they were given
you by the creator. And bear in mind
that if you don't go after the worth
while prizes in life, somebody will beat
you to them. And that somebody will
be a chap who, under no circum-
stances, will admit that he is licked

Everyday Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE w. SPROWLS.
Personalities.

A PERSONALITY is a person plus
= experience. A one-day-old child
can hardly be rated as the poSSeSsor
of a personality We refer to an in
FAINT as "it." When lit" begins to
display traits that are different from
the other cts" of the same age, We
begin to say "he" or she" So the
first classification of personalities Is
associated with gender.
The claSsifications which scientific
psychologists have offered are merely
attempts to center attention on traits
When they find a group of traits that
usually go together, they name type
and call it introyert, eXtrovert. ambi-
vert, choleric. or some other of more
than a hundred names. Such CLASH
flcations mean little to the non
scientific observer, and not very much
more for the scientist.
Common observation has but one
set rule for defining personality. The
"he'' or "She" that has really done
something becomes Somebody; that
is, a personality.
So, from the everyday point of
view. a personality is a person who
varies enough from the average to at
tract attention. As often as not
this variation is not noticed for years
Achievement is the measuring stick
Unless a person achieves something
strikingly beyond the average, he re-
mains still something of an cit"

Engagement
BY EMILY POST.

DEAR MRS. POST: My sister finds
~ an engraved card much the
easiest way to announce her engage
ment, but before sending them to
New York, where her fiance lives. she
would like to ask the reasons why you
approve of engraved wedding an
nouncementS and not Of engagement
announcements. And why do you
| tabu engraved cards of thanks for
wedding presents, which will naturally
arrive when she is busiest over her
| wedGing?"
Answer: Considering engraved an
nouncements of engagement first: II
! they are customary in your town and
they are not sent outside of your town,
! the fact that they are not good form
elsewhere would not matter. But II
your sister is thinking of sending them
| to people in New York's smart world,
such announcements will tell them,
just as plainly as though added in
print, that Jim is marrying a person
who is obviously provincial. And
even though it may not seem very
| important whether she is provincial
or not, her ignorance Of something so
mechanical as announcing her en-
gagement would attract attention
exactly as though she were to drink
out of her finger bowl That is per-
haps unimportant, too. but also proof
of not knowing anything about the
ordinary conventions of behavior.
| The card of thanks is, of course,
much more serious. BY this I mean
that the engraved engagement an
! nouncement is nothing more than
ignorance of proper form. But should
those who send her wedding presents
receive an engraved card of thanks
instead of a personally written note,
such lack of appreciation would not
be merely 'unknowing' but an un-
forgivable rudeneSS.
Remember that, even without any
handicap, a stranger going to live in
| New York has a very diScouraging
problem to face. There is no general
meeting place; every one is too busy
to find time to see even those whom
they care for. At best, it is great
effort to make friends with strange
young woman who has married one OF
a number of odd young men. Re
member that while odd young men
are greatly in demand, those with
wives are no longer odd young men,"
And a strange young woman who
could be so lacking in the ordinary
perception of courtesy as not even to
take the trouble to write a note of
thanks for a present would be, in
truth a millstone who would sink her
husband, as well as herself, in the
| ell u,otarc 0Y COoia1 oblivion

So, by legislative enactment, the
people of Montana declared their 10y
atty and affection for the bitterroot.
OF course, you may see this win
some flower in other places than in
Montana. Often you will be sur
priSed to see flowers you considered
confined to certain sections, bloom
ing profusely away from their sup
poSedly narrow range.
Birds carry flower seeds great dis
tanceS, sometimes. before they drop
them, and when the soil and climate
suit the little seed it gets busy and
grows.
Gravelly, dry and sandy soil is the
choice along the Bitterroot River,
though handsome flowers have been
seen in Yellowstone Park, f1ouriShing
on another type of soil. So you
can see no hard and fast rule can be
made for any of Natures Children.
A botaniSt says that this gay flower
Of the West belongs to the same fam

is very large and an exquisite rose

very different. Only science can tell
us why they are related.
