ABOUT THAT VACATION.
She was a very methodical young
woman and she worked in one of the
government laboratories producing
some very complicated sort of sta
tistics every day but Sundays, holi
days and the two weeks of her vaca
tion. And it was one of the labo
ratories where thcose- two weeks of
vacation might he taken to suit the
convenience of the wage earner at any
time between June and the end of
September.
Miss Methodical went about the
problem of selecting her two weeks
with the same precision with which
determined in the morning whether
she would need to carry an umbrella
with her that day or decided the color
and cut of her new suits all with de
liberation and dispassion.
Other young women might have
been influenced by the consideration
of when their friends were going va
cationing, but not so with Miss Meth
odical. She rcasoncl out that the
worst thing that could happen to any
vacation was to have it coincide with
a set of rainy days, and that one
might as well have no vacation at all
as to lake it when the skies were
pouring rain. She, therefore, consult
ed the weather reports for the last
twenty years enough to establish
a scientific av erase and after due
figuring she discocrcd which twe
consecutive weeks between June I and
October I are lcat likely to hae rain
and, with the calm -alisfaction that
comes with scientific achievement,
hc rcquc-trd and had granted to her
the privilege to take her two weeks
v. ithin this dry season.
Well, you caii imagine what hap
pened just what usually does with
such carefully laid plans. The very
weeks that she had chosen as on the
average mot favorable to vacations
proved to be that vummer. the very
wettest, and the days of her aca-,
tion v ere nio'tlv --pent waiting in
vain for sV:c to grow brighter.
So when i' comes tunc for you to
t ' vour vacation and even the

In the downstairs rooms of nvvny

decoration tell us that curtains are to

arrival of a noveltv in the shape of win

These shades will not only do duty for
shutting out the view and glare.- but will
serve as the decorative feature as well.
They are on sale ready for use or they

that they do not need so much of her
personil iSuc she is reaching out to
imke conditions better for her sisters'
She plans her work as svstematically as
a man plans his business, and it runs as
smoothlv.
A few ears ago there vvas a hesitancy
in woman's reaching outside of the home
for fear she might be considered man
nishentering man's field of labor but
fhe can be Just as dear and sweet and
lovable anJ ladylike in directing the
cleanliness, the sanitation, the beauty and
art of her iity afl of the four walls ot
litr home. She Is no less womanly In di
recting the planting of vines on a river
bank or covering an unsightly building
with vines than she Is planting a vine
to grow over a trellis on her own lawn.
It depends upon the woman. The
very fact that she is reaching out to
make conditions better or the child
of her laundress does not mean that
she is changing her Ideals of woman
hood She is simply broadening them.
She is reaching out from her Ideal of
personal motherhood to universal,
spiritual motherhood
There is no new woman. The wom

as of yesterday Her function and"
privilege Is to serve. She Is simply
learning how to serve better, how she
may serve a greater number From
the material duties to the few. she has
progressed to moral duties to the
many
All hall the woman of today who
Is broad enough mid large enough
and great enough and womanly

love and care and protection and privi

political way. but In reaching out to

as her own! Motherhood is material
motherhood If It is simply to take
care of clothes, and food, and furni
ture; spiritual motherhood for one's
own child Is Impossible without the
desire to reach out and help the other
mother's child
The woman today knows the neces

for her own child, and she Is provid

streets and vegetation and flowers In
the poorer sections of her city She
Is educating the mother who must

No one exercise will do this. Tou
must strengthen all of the vital or
gans, particularly the stomach and In
testines, so that they function properly
and properly eliminate tho waste of
the system. Then you need to practice
deep breathing so that you take In
plenty of oxygen to put the waste In
condition to be thrown oft. Exercise
the vita organs normally, breathe
deeply and fully from habit, do not

Drink Water and Be Healthy.
To temain oung. drink water pure
and soft water." So s.i s a famous
physician. Age. he says, "is dryness and
ossification "
The summer, which naturally produces
thirst for water, is a good time to de
velop the health-giving habit of water
drinking.
Different authorities give different
amounts of water as the proper ones to
drink, but no hard and fast set of rules
on this subject can be laid down. Drink
a little more water In the course of tho
day than j.ou are in the habit of drink
ing: that is a good rule for the beginner.
Gradually increase the amount until every
day jou aic drinking from three pints to
two quarts of water.
There is a difference of opinion as to
the best time to drink water. Some
physicians and dieticians say not to
drink It with the meals, and some say
that It Is needed then. The only way to
find out whether it agrees with you at
mealtimes is to try drinking It then. If
you have indigesion after meals, try eat
ing without drinking, and drink between
meals.
A glassful of water as soon as you
waken in the morning is a good thing.
Another at bedtlmo is good.
If clear water is unpleasant to you, and
It Is to some persons, try drinking it
with a little lemon Juice, without sugar,
squeezed Into It. The lemon Juice gives
It some character and taste. This Is not
lemonade, however, of the sweet, over
flavored sort. ThU sweet lemonade does
not take the place of water. Neither
does milk, which Is a food In Itself, and
which really does not contain such a
large percentage of water as asparagus
does; and neither do the usual bever
ages, coffee, tea and chocolate. They
are either -tlmulants or food drinks, and

Today is also the one hundred and

an early age she showed remaikahl
precocity. At three she could read with

up for this deprivation by private read

It vvas not till she was twenty-six that
she began to write, but her literary ca

DMLY SHORT STORY.
GERALD'S WIFE.
By IZOLA FORRESTER.
Brodcrlck swung off the 4:33 express,
walked quickly up the steps leading from
the railroad platform, and took his first
look at nnevine. inose wno uvea in
Pinevllle proper were content to call It
Pihcvillc. Gerald had written that they
did not live in Pinevllle proper but In
Plneville-by-the-Sea, otherwise Pinevllle
Improper.
All that Broderick saw were pines,
plenty of them, a flat white ribbon of
roadway, and a hit of a postoffico rough
ly shingled In the midst of the nearest
clump of pines. He stepped Into the
postoffice as the central spot of civiliza
tion. Someone vvas stamping letters be
hind the glass enclosure, a girl with
dark smooth hair. Beatrice had smooth
dark hair.
He watched the girl stamping letters
with Interest, and wondered why some
one did not tell her to wear her smooth,
dark hair in two soft braids around her
head, crown fashion, as Beatrice did.
'Where do the Vaughans live, please"
he asked finally when the stamping
ceased.
"The Vaughans? Oh. Gerald Vaughan
and his wife? It's a brown house down
near the shore, with a wide veranda and
a funny 'roof. About a mile straight
down the road." I
A wide veranda, and a funny roof.
That sounded like Gerald. He wondered
h'ow Gerald's wife liked It. Beatrice was
artistic, but not artistically eccentric
She had a horror of things odd, bizarre,
so-called Bohemian. And yet she had
married Gerald. And Gerald's brother
knew that Gerald was utterly odd, bl
zarre and Bohemian so-called.
He walked on down the flat white rib
bon roadway, and wondered 'whether he
would find her like. the girls Gerald had
aln:ays admired. A lithesome, limp.
Blessed Damozel type, with close silky
irowns. and loose floppy hair. Last sum

"There are many reasons why every
husband and wife should have this In

might be phjsically capable of bearing
a child might at another time find her
self in a poor physical condition when it
would bo highly undesirable for her to
have a child. Every mother wishes to

"No woman should bear a child

"The doctor should be free to advise
and the great sacrament not be fulfilled

ot a girl to fall in love with. She had
been a good fellow-, a stanch friend. And
as he watched her he had stopped row
ing, and they had drifted slowly In the
sunset glow that flooded the lake while
he told her.
There had been no actual engagement.
He had nothing to reproach her with.
He had not been in a Position to ask
her to be his wife then, but he had
thought a girl like Beatrice had meant
more by a kiss, a handclasp, a few
vague words o' understanding, than
other girls. He had thought she might
wait until next summer. And now. In

GETTING A START.
THE LOAFER ON THE DOCK.
By NATHANIEL C. FOM I.EIt, JK.
The ship never comes in to the loafer
on the dock.
I have asked thousands of men what
one thing seemed to them to con
tribute most to failure, and. while there
appeared to be an unimportant differ
ence of opinion, practically all of these
men of mark were certain that lazi
ness and loafing had more to do with
lack of success than had anything
else.
It Is true that nblllty counts, and
that a man without It cannot hope suc
cessfully to navigate any channel. For
tunately, however, none of us Is with
out some ability.
I admit at the outset that men with
only ordinary capacity cannot occupy
the positions held by those of enormous
ability, and that It Is useless for the
mediocre man to attempt to force him
self outside of the regular roads of
life. Yet ability, no matter how great
may be Its magnitude. Is worthless and
useless unless coupled with activity
and having ambition as the guiding
star.
The man of ordinary capacity, who
Is willing to work and who" gets out of
himself all of which he Is capable, will
stand higher In any community than
will he of great ability who Is too lazy
to use what he could not help pos
sessing. The loafer is not on good terms with
himself or with the world. He Is pre
destined to disaster, a menace to so
ciety. I am not suggesting that you. my
reader, work Incessantly and forget to
play, for recreation l as necessary to
the rounding out of a man as Is at
tention to the major duties
Loafing I not resting. The loafer.
while h is loafing, contributes nothing
to his bodily health or to his mental ac
tivity. He Is no better than a hibernat
ing animal: no, not as good, because the
animal goes Into winter quarters that he
may not overtax his strength, and that
he may be prepared to live when his sea
son opens.
Jn every city. In every town, and In
every village." hundreds and thousands rf
men are loafing on the sidewalks, lean
ing up against the buildings, seldom
thinking, often silent. Just occupying so
much space. They are not as efficient aa
the hltchlng-post, because the latter. In
animate though It la. has Its use in tho
world. ak . '
Nothing coindBRo Me loafer, and. if it
did come, he would r.ot seize upon It.
He would be better off, and so would
the world. If he ware tOaced upoa a
scavenger scow, towed out Into the
broad ocean, and dumped with other
refuse into the bottom of the sea.
Nothing worth doing, whether it Is
work or play, has any value to the
participant, unless he enters into it
with enthusiasm and allows it to con
tribute to his betterment. If he Is
tired mentally or physically, he should
rcht, hut he need not loaf. Kesting is
one of the necessities of h!.s life, an I
resting gives him enjoyment, because
he knows that through it he will be
better able to take up Ins work, to be
more proficient in the doing of his
duty; hut loafing, pure and simple
loafing has nothing to recommend it
and everything to condemn it.
Nobody wants the loafer. He does
not know- how to work: and. when he
does work, his work amounts to very
little. He is a drone, altogether good
for nothing, who furnishes himself
with the poorest kind of society.
Don't loaf rest! Make resting a le
gitimate part of your life Play when
you play and put your heart into it;
and when you work, work with all
your energy, with brain and body
harmoniously coupled together, each
doing its duty, each helping the other.

bound to grow out more bristly, and in
tlmo It will become so coarse that noth

The only safe way to remove hair Is to
devitalize It. It Is uscle.s to use pastes
or rub-on preparations because they only
remove hair from the surface of the skin.
De Sliracle. the original liquid depilatory,
devitalizes hair by attacking It under tho

Imitations of De Sliracle are as worth
less as pastes and rub-on preparations
because they lack certain ingredients
that De Sliracle alone contains which
give It the power to rob hair of its vital

depilatory that has a binding guarantee
