ceed in being very Objectionable.
Some people have that quality
which tends to attract and hold
friends, however, more people have
some trait that, although agree
able to few, makes one seem a
nuisance to others. Everyone wants
friends. If they have troubles in
acquiring them they probably don't
realize that it is their own fault
that they don't succeed Two good
rules which may be followed are:
Don't be too frank. A person
never likes to be told things about
himself that are not compliments
(2) Don't hand out advice. A per-
son doesn't enjoy being dictated to
by another. It gives him feeling
of inferiority which he resents. OF
course there are many points which
aid in popularity that l haven't
needed. But, if these two rules
are followed you will find them
great help.
Perhaps you think you don't
need to follow them. Well, just try
thinking over a conversation just
spoken between you and friend
and see.

TEMPERANCE TALKS
BY Lucy Smith Guseman
CLAYTON. Delaware

Partners
Said the whiskey-fask to the
cigarette,
I'd like to make a good sized bet
That can get more scalps than
you,
Although your victims are not 50
few.
Said the cigarette to the whiskey-
flask,
Well, that's as easy as can ask,
For I give kids their downard start,
Then you step in and do your part.
They come to you with a burning
thirst,
But I'm the fellow that gets them
first.
So most of them should count for
me.
I'll take the bet; it's a cinch, don't
you see?
Then the whiskey-fask had this to
say,
I never looked at the thing that
way,
But must confess you spoke the
truth,
'Tis you that tackles the foolish
youth.
You fill his system with "dopey"
smoke,
Then I mould him into a first-class
soak.
We work together far too well.
To quarrel, or even have a spell.
So the whiskey-fask and the
cigarette
Shook hands together; called off
the bet;
And away they sauntered, side-by-
side,
Hunting victims far and wide.
Partners in crime and ruination,
folks down to degrada-
tion,
So take a warning that's on the
level,
And shun them-as they are of the
devil.

/ DEATH OF MRS. THOMAS F.
BAYARD
Mrs. Bayard, wife of the Secre-
| tary of State, died at her residence
in Washington at the age of 81
years, early Sunday morning. The
immediate cause of death was
brought on by the shock of her
daughters sudden death two weeks
ago. For the first week following
that event she stood the strain and
excitement quite well, but a week
ago last Friday she was compelled
to take to her bed, and gradually
grew worse from day to day. AL
though for years Mrs. Bayard had
been confirmed invalid, she had
for the last six months been in bet
ter health than for years. Last
Summer she was very i'll at her
home in Wilmington, with a COM
plication of diseases and her recov-
cry at that time was considered
doubtful. At the solicitation of
her daughter, Miss Kate, she put |
herself under the care of DR.. F. A. |
Gardiner, and under his treatment /
she had improved SO much as to be |
able to go into society this Winter, |
and although still an invalid, she
was in comparatively good health |
when her daughter died. With the |
exception of her daughter, Mrs. |
Warren, of Boston, and her son,
who is in Arizona, the family were |
present when she died. The body
was taken to Wilmington for bur-
ial and the funeral was held there I
on Tuesday. The death of Mrs.
will have a marked effect
on the social festivities at the cap
ital. 1t closes in absolute mourn
