Dr. Marden's Uplift Talks By ORISON SWETT WARDEN. ^5J555J5J5J5JJ55555JJ5v5J55J55J55W5r! Copyright by McClure Newspaper Syndicate "HADN'T TIME TO MAKE FRIENDS" Not long ago Mr. Mellen, the for mer president of the New Haven railroad, and most bitterly talked about railroad man of his time, said: "I thought if a man knew his busi ness and worked at it hard and pro duced the best product he could with the materials available, that was enough. But apparently it was not." "It is enough until a storm breaks," said the newspaper man to whom Mr. Mellen was talking. "I thought I was strong enough to meet any storm," he answered. "What should a man do to prepare tor the kind of storm that hit me?" "He might have made more friends outside of the line of business?friends with the public." "But I hadn't the time. I was too busy. I have had six weeks' vacation In 44 years. How could I find the time to meet your newspaper report ers and cultivate the good will of editors? I engaged a man to do tbat work. Well, we shall see. I may have a little more time now to make friends." After all, what does that thing which we call success amount to if we have sacrificed our friendships, if we have sacrificed the most sacred things in life in getting it? One of the most beautiful things that can ever be said of a human be ing is that he has a host of friends. When Lincoln's friends were pro posing him for the presidency he was w>or and eonmarativelv . unknown and people said: "Why, Lincoln has no rich men back of him; he has no political pull, no money, not much of Anything excepting a lot of friends." This is true, but what friends they * were! They made his presidency pos sible. Only he has friends worth while who , Is willing to pay the price for making and keeping them. He may not have quite as large a fortune as if he gave all of his time to business and money making. But wouldn't you rather have more good, stanch friends who believe 'in you and who would stand by you in the severest adversity than have a lit tie more money? What will enrich the life so much as hosts of good, loyal friends? M'ost of us attend to everything else first, and if we have any little scraps of time left we give them to our friends, when we ought to make a business of our friendships. Are they not worth it? The faith of friends is a perpetual stimulus. How it nerves and encour ages us to do our best when we feel j that scores of friends really believe ] In us! ' i It means a great deal to have en thusiastic friends always looking out . for our interests, working for us all , the time, saying a good word for us j ai every opportunity, supporting us, ] Bpeaking for us in our absence when j we need a friend, stopping slanders, j shielding our sensitive, weak spots, i killing lies which would injure us, j correcting false impressions, trying to set us right, overcoming the preju dices created by some mistake or slip or a first bad impression we made, who are always doing something to * give us a lift or help us along! One reason why so many people are disappointed witn wnat lire nas tor them is because they have never cul- * tivated the capacity for friendship. * Friendship is no one-sided affair, but ? an exchange of soul qualities. There 1 can be no friendship without reci procity. Many people arc- not capable 1 of forming great friendships, because * they do not have the qualities them- 1 selves which attract noble qualities in ( others. If you are crammed with ( despicable qualities, you cannot expect 1 any one to care for you. If you are 1 uncharitable, intolerant, if you lack 1 generosity, cordiality; if you are nar- 5 row and bigoted, unsympathetic, you T cannot expect that generous, large- ' hearted, noble characters will flock ' around you. THE INDIVIDUAL IN YOUR CHILD "When I was a little girl," a friend , of mine once told me, "I was always ^ bo glad when company came to the j horse. My mother would change so. ( She would be cheerful and kind to , company and would stop scolding and criticizing me. Sometimes I used to , wish I could just be company all the ' time?she would have been so kind to me always then." How long could we hold the confl- . dence and affection of our friends if we treated them as many of us treat our children? Most fathers and rrmthprs fin tint ppem to realize that the qualities which attract children to , them and which secure their confi dence are the same qualities which attract their friends and the good faith of the people with whom they associate. A father might as well pummel and abuse a friend every lit tle while and then expect him to re spect and love him as to pound and abuse a child and expect to gain his love, just because he belongs to him. Many parents seem to think that because their own children are de pendent upon them for their food, clothing, shelter and education, that they own their respect, gratitude and love, regardless of how they are treated. The sense of relationship has Solving the Problem. For several years the newspapers have been filled with various discus sions of the high cost of living, but the other day a man in this com munity gave the nearest solution of it we have heard. He has three cows that furnish him with butter and milk for his home, and in addition to that he is raising three calves and three hogs with the milk, while the milk Is sold regularly and keeps the -store account paid. His ditch bankB are growing fruit trees that make nocning wnatever to do with a child'B " feelings towards his father. It is just i as impossible to compel the respect of | one's child as it is to compel some oth er person to love us. You must earn his respect, just as you would earn the respect of a friend. It costs you some thing to keep the good will and friend ship of your children. The greatest hold the parent has upon the child is its companionship. How often we hear fathers and moth ers say that they no longer have any control over their son; that he has passed beyond their reach, and they do not know what to do with him. Now, my parent friends, have you ever tried to make a companion of your boy; tried to make him feel that you were his best friend, by sympathizing with him in his little iruuoies uuu inaia ; uu )uu ia*vc an. interest in his hopes and ambitions? Have you tried to encourage him when he was down-hearted, had made a serious mistake. Have you sym pathized with him in his struggles for self-control? Any business man would be horrified at the suggestion that he was ruining his son by neglect, that his absorption in busi ness would result In the undoing of his own son. But if you have been in the habit of driving him away from you because you did not want to be bothered every time he asked a question or came to you with his little heartaches for your sympathy and your help, you cannot expect to have much influence over him. One of the bitterest things In many a business man's life has been the dis covery, after he had made his money, that he had lost his hold upon his boy, and he would give a large part of his fortune to recover his loss. Every father should think of the child as a sacred trust, bringing Into the world with him a sealed mes sage, which he is bound to deliver like a man and a hero, and that this sealed message within him Is sacred. It may not be even for the father to j read; but it is each father's duty to ^ help his boy to live up to it It Is comparatively easy for you . to, gain your boy'B confidence, If you Ko?r<n oarlv onmich From infancy. he should grow up to feel that no one elBe can take your place, that you stand In a peculiar relation to him, which no one else can fill. Every boy Is going to have a confidant, some one to whom he can tell his secrets and whisper his hopes and ambitions, which he would not breathe to others, and this some one should be his fa ther. , / Are Foxes Vegetarians? Foxes are not generally accredited with vegetarian instincts. You never see their tracks, as you see those of the rabbits, around a young oak-tree shoot which has been nibbled down to nntrh ctom 'Rut Rkoti evidently thought otherwise when he wrote his 1 table of the sour grapes, and there is plenty of testimony that Esop was ' right. Foxes do eat wild grapes, as many observers have testified, climb ing a considerable way to get them; 2 and probably at times they eat berries and perhaps apples. I< have found their tracks, at any rate, beneath apple-trees. I have also been confl iently assured that they eat the per simmons in Virginia; that the "ol' boun' dawgs" know how good this fruit is, too, and if you wish to find the very best tree, take a "dawg" with you.?Walter Prichard Eaton, in ffumsr's Masazine. Bank Notes of Silk. Bank notes made of silk of a par :icular shade that will baffle the bank lote forger are now possible. As is snown, most of the expert banknote 'orgers use photography to obtain ;heir best results; but a recent inven ;ion makes it possible to manufacture silk of a particular shade that can- ' lot possibly be photographed. Discovered by a woman, this inven ;ion is a new process of waterproofing abrics without rubber and dyeing ;hem in the same operation. Linen, [ lotton or other materials to be treat ed by this process are placed white 1 intd one end of thp machine and ' jrought out at the other end a few ? minutes later colored, waterproofed, J; ind dry. Fabrics so produced, the in ventor maintains, can be used in hun- 8 ireds of trades, from aeroplane build- * ing to banknote making. Old Maid's Opinion of Boya, In the Woman's Home Companion, Zona Gale, writing a story of an old naid who suddenly found herself face co face with the responsibility of tak ng care of a small boy, presents the Did maid as making the following ob servation: ' " 'Though I love the human race and admire to see it took care of, I wouldn't sense my way clear to taking a. boy into my houee. Boys belong to the human race, to be sure, just as whirling egg beaters belong to ome lets; but much as I set store by ome lets, I couldn't invite a whirling egg beater into my home permanent.

"A meeting of the board of direc tors," said the doorkeeper, with a yawn. "And what are you?" "I'm the bored." ' Sportswoman in 4 FRENCH idea In hunting garb is "* shown here which the practical imerican may make use of in fashion tig her own. No American who un lertakes tramping through field and rood and over hill and valley would onsider following this model exactly.

Gut hunting and fiBhing and ramping In the alluring out-of-doors s not simply a pose with the Amer 3an sportswoman: she really hunts ome, fishes considerably, and tramps auch. The jacket In the model pictured Is deaL Made of checked tweed In hades of brown, it is roomy enough or freedom and snug enough for com ort, and Is not ungraceful. The back 3 plain, with the fronts fulled in a ] Ittle above the belt. The sleeves, of he plain coat-sleeve variety, are mished with a pointed cuff on the up >er side. The yoke overlaps the acket at the top, fastening on the houlder, and a plain turn-over collar iniBhes the neck. Plain machine stitching finishes all dges. The jacket fastens with snap asteners, and small metal buttons, Dainty Serving Apron: ' F YOU are casting about for inexpen . sive Christmas gifts there is hardly nything that makes as good a show tig, for the smallest outlay, as the Ittle serving apron.

The weaving of cotton into exquisite abrics that cost little has placed a vorld of opportunities at the hand of he needle woman.

Everyone of them Is available or the serving apron and for the nornlng cap. There is a saving In buying enough naterial to cut several apron9, and ;hey may be made of short lengths or >leces or remnants, because the body >f the apron is often cut In panels that ire set together with narrow val lace. Short lengths of embroidery serve for edgings, because they are put on with out fullness. A pocket, decked out with a small bow or rosette, Is an ;mbellishment and comes in Handy .'or the lace-bordered handkerchief. Since It is so much the vogue for :he daughters of the house, little and Jig, or for the young hostess, to serve the guest at tea or luncheon, the serving apron Is sure to be appreci Fashionable Dark Blue. Dark blue is surely as fashionable as its stanchest admirers could wish to have it. Blue serge has been fash ionable for several seasons, increasing ly so, apparently. And it is as much worn now as ever. Of course, blue serge coat suits demand blue acces sories, so there are blue net blouses, blue silk and lisle stockings, blue hand bag and other blue things by the score. Then there are many blue velvet hats. Blue Is one of the best colors in the lovely new brocades for evening wear, put on In diagonal rows (three In each row), are allowed It by way of adorn ment. i No one can fathom the Idea of the designer In making, to go with so practical a jacket, a skirt so entirely unsuited to hunting. The proper skirt is to be cut much shorter, extending not below the calf of the leg, or at most to the top of high hunting s&oes. It is to fit smoothly about the waist and hipc and flare toward the bottom. It should be finished with a machine stitched hem and provided with a few weights. Skirts of this kind are worn over dark-colored bloomers and with the plainest of soft shirtwaists, in brown linen or other strong fabric. The cap is a very good model, with a vizor of which there is only a glimpse in the picture. Such caps are made'of velours; chinchilla, velveteens, tweeds and similar fabrics, and it would be hard to Improve on this one. It is comfortable and becoming. For the crisp and glorious days of Indian summer and the light snows of De cember the real sportswoman can equip herself to be entirely comfort able and be conscious of looking well, too. s, to Cost a Quarter imkJWJA ated by her who Is remembered with one at Chrlstmaa time. The pretty aprons shown here cost only a quar ter each. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. Wide Skirt Has Arrived. "The wide skirt has arrived," says a fashion authority. "It started with the short, flaring minaret tunic. From there it lengthened and expanded into the long, full Russian overskirt. Here it ruled supreme for some time, but at last the final drop came, and sud denly, too, and its end is the three and a half yard round-the-bottom skirt The circular skirt hanging in quaint godet ruffles is a rival of the new plaited skirt, and Paris favors both as smart autumn styles. The long coat which flares even more than the skirt be neath is the suit coat of the hour, while the basque which clings to the figure has taken the place of the bag gy kimono blouse. It has brought with it the high collar and the higher ruche, which flares. It is interesting to note that we are to flare both at the neck and at the feet this winter." Fur Capes and Ruffs. Fur trimmings are a strong feature of women's dress this season and therefore it is to be expected that fur should prove a big item in the wom en's neckwear field, according to the Dry Goods Economist. Cape collars nf fur finished with standing ruches are a feature, as also are maline ruffs with a fu band in the back. Some of the more elaborate novel ties designed as foundations for eve ning dresses show trimmings of fur, combined with smart opalescent span gles and beads. too. And blue velvet?even crimson velvet is not mqre regal looking than rich and sumptuous velvet of king's blue. Ostrich at Hands and Throat. One of the alluring trimmings of the new season in ostrich, and one of the most alluring ways of using it is at the hands and throat of a silk or satin frock. One is old gold charmeuse of soft color and texture has brown os trich flues ouu.ning the round neck and finishing the very loag aleevea. WITH GINGER FLAVOR MANY APPETIZING DESSERTS AT COMMAND. Condiment Is Also Recommended for Its Health-Giving Properties? Should Have More Definite Place in the Larder. Preserved or canned ginger gives a most Interesting flavor to many des serts and really deserves a more defL- ( nlte place in the larder. For it can be kept always on hand and therein pos- I sesses a great advantage over many ' other fruit flavors. I Dates freed from their pits and | stuffed with slivers of preserved gin ger, then rolled in granulated sugar, are a delicious sweetmeat. Ginger Bavarian cream is a dessert with an almost elusive flavor. To make It chop half a cupful of pre- ' served ginger into small bits and mix It with half a cupful of sirup. Then ; add half a package of gelatin, which j has been soaked and dissolved in a cupful of water. Whip a pint of cream stiff and add It to the other ingredi- , ents. If necessary add chili. Serve with whipped cream, garnished with bits of preserved ginger. Chopped preserved ginger can be , f r\ nu/1/^lncr Kofrtro 1 f ifl OUUCU ilUO puuuiug utjiut \J ill baked to give It an unusual flavor. For a baked custard ginger sauce Is delicious. Make it by simmering a cupful of sirup to which a quarter of a cupful of chopped preserved gin ger has been added. Serve hot Ginger custard sauce is made by simmering the milk from which the custard is to be made with some chopped ginger In It for 15 miautes. Then strain and proceed with the custard sauce In the usual way. For ginger water Ice boil a quart of water and a pound and a quarter of granulated sugar together for five minutes with the rind from four lem ons and one orange. Cool and add the juice of the lemons and orange, strain and freeze. Pound four ounces of pre served ginger to a paste and cut two ounces into shreds and add to the ice when it Is hard. Pack for a couple of hours. Ginger ice cream Is made In this way: Pound six ounces of preserved ginger to a paste and add slowly two tablespoonfuls of lemon juice, mix a pint of cream with half a pound of granulated sugar and add slowly to the ginger mixture. Press through a fine wire si^ve and freeze. Oriental Eggs. The Chinese are great eaters of eggs, which they take hard boiled. These are to be had in all the road side places for refreshment While the Chinese have an expression, "eggs of a hundred years," it is not to be understood that their eggs are al ways a century old, though one may be able to procure those that are of many years' standing. The Chinese evince a preference for the egg of the duck or of the goose. These are placed with aromatic herbs in slaked lime for a varying period, the minimum being, it is said, five or six weeks. Under the influence of time the yolk liquefies and takes on a dark green color, and the white coagulates and becomes green. How to Clean White Feather#. White feathers of any description can be cleaned at home to look like new at a small cost. Take gasoline and plaster of paris and E,ix the two together to the consistency of whipped cream. Dip the feathers in this mix fnre onnoMln? and nrfiasine them: then hang in the open air to dry thor oughly, and until the gasoline evapo rates. Ee careful not to handle until thoroughly dry; then 6hake well, and the result will he a beautifully clean and fluffy feather. White wings may also be successfully treated in this manner. The gasoline must never be used in a room where there is a light or fire. To Make Pot Pie. This can be made with veal alone, chicken or any niceimeat. It can also be made similar to the Irish stew with left-over meat and adding a lit tle fresh meat. Meat can be used a!one or with a flavoring of vegeta bles. Cut up small and simmer, as the Irish stew is made, then put in a deep baking dish and cover with a biscuit crust or a mashed potato crust rolled out with flour. Bake a rich brown in moderate oven. Serve In the baking dish. Veal stew, which Is made by cutting a pound or two of veal into six pieces, makes a good pie. . Breakfast Pie. An appetizing and substantial left over breakfast can be made in the following way: Grease a baking dish and cover the bottom well with hot mashed potatoes and add r layer of the meat chopped fine or ground and rather highly seasoned. Top on with a thin layer of the mashed potatoes. If there was gravy with the meat this may be poured over the pie; other wise moisten it with water in which a little butter has beeh dissolved. Set in the oven and bake until brown. ' Serve With Turkey. Rice. Celery. Chestnuts. Boiled onions. Sweet potatoes. Cranberry sauce. Oysters in the stuffing. Oyster plant is good. too. Apple butter Is sometimes used witn ' It. 1 Cold slaw gives the requisite bite when cranberries are missing. Pecan Cookies. Prepare enough pecans to make one ) pint of meat and grind them into flour ; in the food chopper. Cream one cupful | of sugar with two tablespoonfuls of buttered, add three eggs, two tabl> a spoonfuls of milk, a pinch of salt and c ths ground l.uts. Use barely enough flour to make a dough. It must not be too stiff nor too thin, Just a good roll ing dough. Cut into cakes and bake a ? light brown. There la nothing: so wretched or fool ish as to anticipate misfortunes. What madness It Is In your expecting evil before It arrives. Fire tries gold, misery tries brave men. PEANUTS AS FOOD. Peanuts are the cheapest and most :ommonly used of all nuts, yet be cause perhaps of their [ V cheapness they are un dervalued. The following are some ways of serv ing them: Peanut but ter can be made at home. Fresh shelled roasted nuts put through a grind er and mixed with' but ter and salt to suit the taste. If the butter is fresh and the peanut mixture is put in jars it will keep some time and be good. Sweet Peanut Sandwiches.?Talj,e half a cupful of grated maple sugar or brown sugar, one-fourth of a cup fill nf nooniifo onH ft tfthl (V spoonful of rich milk.

Season with salt and pepper and bake until firm and brown. Serve as a vegetable. Scalloped Tomatoes With Nuta.?? Mix half a cupful of finely-chopped nuts with two cupfuls of bread crumbs and two tablespoonfuls of melted but ter. Put a layer in the bottom of the oakfng dish, then add a cupful of tomatoes, another layer of crumbs, an other cup of tomatoes and over the top the rest of the nut and crumb mixture. Bake in a quick oven until brown, and serve hot. Potatoes With Nuts.?Mix together one cupful of chopped nuts and two cupfuls of bread crumbs, and put in a greased pan. Alternate layers of cold sliced potatoes and this mixture, finishing with the cruYnb mixture, pour over a cupful and a half of milk, well seasoned with salt and pepper. Bake slowly one hour. Peanut soup, peanut bread and pea nut cookies are more of the tasty dishes which one may prepare.

It is not always wise to teach a ioree, to play tricks, as this story; told by Gen. Sir Robert Baden-Powell n Pearson's Magazine, proves. John Leech's inimitable circus horse that insisted on sitting down with bis rider whenever he heard a band play, is the prototype of a horse of mine, which, in a weak moment, I had taught to rear up and "salaam" whenever I leaned forward to make a bow. .
