(BY ADELAIDE KKNNERLY.)
lias anyone the right to burden
other people with their melancholy
murmurs? We all do It and yet
how few of us realize that we are
committing a sin.
Have you ever gone to your office,
or about your household duties in
the best of spirits and have some
one come in with a case of the
“blues?" It unnerves one for the
entire day. And what causes these
blues? Nobody can ever telK
There is no reason, except, per
haps. a little indigestion or some
other physical trouble. When any
thing serious is happening, or con
• fronting us, there is no time for
blues and melancholy. We get busy
and act—we work out of our diffi
culty some way and do not even
think of having the blues.
It is bad enough to let these
fits of melancholy pounce upon one
self but to burden other people
with it is a shame.
Two Kinds of People.
There are two kinds of people
who come into everybody's life,—
the happy and the mournful. The
happy person comes in with a
smile, a bit of news about this or
that; not too much time to spare
but time enough to leave you with
sparkling eyes and vim to finish
your task. Such people are stimu
lating and wholesome; they do one
more godd than a well cooked meal.
Of course, everything in lifo may
not be going smoothly for them
but:
They notice little pleasures
As they notice little pains;
And they cah forget their losses
Trying to increase their gains;
And they look for people’s virtues,
While their faults refuse to see.
Suppose we all were like that?
What a fine world this would be.
Oftimes the blues come from too
little work. Idle ideas invariably
go wrong and not only play havoc
with the person In whose mind
they are created but they settle a
blanket of dampness on everybody
they come in contact with.
Atmospheres.
Among th£ acquaintances of each
of us there are a few that we are
glad to see, always; others we are
glad to miss, always, just be
cause of the comfortable or un
comfortable atmospher they leave
as they go out.
There are some people who pro
voke our wit, others our wisdom,
others our mirth and small talk,
and others bring to light all the
family skeletons and unearth every
hidden sorrow of life.
We hear one woman, speaking of
another, say that she is so Witty.
Perhaps the other woman In the
conversation will say that she has
not found her so at all and that her
impression has been just the op
posite.
Well, there you are! One per
son has one effect while someone
else has another. If we find our
friends most of them. Jolly, bright,
and worth while, then we must
be something like that ourselves.
i but If we find them dulJ. stupid, and
melancholy, it is time to take in
ventory and see- what, la wrong in
our brain storehouse for there is
no doubt that-we arc having equal
ly as depressing effect on others
as they are having on ue, It-comes
right back to the same old story
of the world being a mirror and
eacli person getting back their own
reflection.. »
James Whitcomb Riley said:
"Whatever the weather may be,
says he; ■
Whatever the weather may be—
’TIs the songs ye sing and the
smiles ye wear.
That's makln’ the sun shine every
wheie-. ” .
Isn't it true that most of us have
to live stupidly for /ears and
years lie fore we know now to live
wisely for a day?

“/ know no other Floor Varnish
that wears like this”
It’s the varnish that holds itsown under the wear and tear of
romping children and the heavy tread of active grown-ups.
,. DURABLE FLOOR
VARNISH
has the quality that makes it “make good.” It covers in a smooth,
even coat; dries bard and firm, and never gets “sticky.” Durable
Floor Varnish gives a surface of rare brilliancy and depth of beauty,
which is not affected by moisture and water—whether hot or cold. It
is not easily marred or scarred.
Durable Floor Varnish can’t be beaten for floor wear, because it’e
made just for that purpose. There is a Little Blue Flag Varnish for
every need. Ask us for further information about varnish and varnishing.

“HITT WHAT SAYKST THOU."
We have saved the soul ot the man
that kited,
We have turned to shield the thief;*
We restored the pride or the man that
lied
And we rave him our belief;
But for her that fell we have fash
ioned hell.
With a faith all stern and Just—
It was so of old; and no man has told
What our Lord wrotp in the dust.
We have sighed betimes of our broth
er's crimes
And have bade them be of cheer,
For the flesh’ Is weak, and the soul
grown meek
May yet read its title clear.
But we draw away from the one
astnw
As the truly righteous must.
She la cursed. Indeed!—and we did
not read
What our Lord wrote in the dust.
For tho men who thieved, and who
killed and lied—
Who have slain the woman's soul—
We have worked and prayed, and
have seen them made
All clean and all pure and all whole.
But we drive her out with a right
eous shout,
In our Pharisaic trust.
So the man goes free—but we did
not see
What our Lord wrote In the dust.
—Wilbur Nesbit, in Living Church.
A TOAST.
Fill up your glasses, my comrades,
And Just have another with me.
Wo have toasted tho wives of our
bosoms,
And sweethearts across the sea;
We have toasted the best of all women,
Home and kindred In distant lands;
Now let me be host and give you a
toast.
To the Woman Who Understands.
To the woman you don't have to lie to,
To the woman who for you would
fight.
To the woman who knows all about
you,
And yet loves you wittf a love that
Is right.
God bless such a woman, my com
rades.
And help her through Life’s shift
ing sands.
To hold up hei mate to a standard

Mrs. Richardson to Teach—
At the recent meeting of the board
of managers of the Georgia Training
School for Girls, Mrs. Wtlmer L.
Moore, chairman, it was decided to
Inaugurate at once In the syBtem of
the home the teaching of the practi
cal arts. A beginning will be made
in the teaching of lug weaving and
baskets, and in the making of fans.
Mrs. Minnie Keese Kichardson of
Montgomery, Ala., a member of the
faculty of the KUzabeth Mather Col
lege, Is the instructor who will Inau
gurate the work. She will teach at
the Georgia Training School for Girls,
four hours each Week from now until
the first of February.
The board asks herewith through
the press, that tho friends of the
Georgia Training School for Girls send
any silk or wool materials, scraps and
materials of any kind with which the
rugs can be woven, to the home. The
art of rug weaving may be said to
have evolved from the old time "rag"
carpets which served in their day a
very useful purpose.
The hand-woven rugs are now a fad
In the country and bungalow and
Bummer camns. Many women vie with
one another In the beauty of their
hand-woven rugs and other household
furnishings similarly made.
Also It Is asked that feathers be
sent to the home for the fashioning
of fans and fire screens. It is almost ,
turkey-killing time, and the-- turkey
tall fan has its place not ohly in art.
but In literature and cerUtlnly In the
hearts of those who ce/i recall "ye
olden time." Guinea feathers can be
made Into pretty things, and there Is
a rage for fans and screens and sim
ilar ornaments which can be made of
the gloriously lighted peacock feath- J
ers.
Mrs. George Howard Is chairman of
the ladies' committee organl^fd last
night for aiding in makiiftt the Geor
gia Training School the worthy Insti
tution It Is proving to be. Any fur
ther information of the subject may
be obtained from her,—Atlanta Con

Five Simple Holes for Happiness—
I.
Cultivate the habit of always look
ing upon the bright side of every ex
perience.
Worry and anxiety are the great
killers. Worry has the physical ef
fect of breaking down the nerve cen
ters and making one less able to do
one’s work or to meet any difficulty.
Don’t cross the bridge before you
come to It. Meet every trouble as it
arises.
II.
Accept cheerfully your place in life
while you are In It, believing that it Is
the best possible place for you.
This does not mean that one should
not strive to better his conditions, but
it means that while you are In one
position make the most of it and don't
be envious, fretful, and jealous of oth
ers. “Oh," you say, “If I Just had
something else, or were in some other
situations, I could be happy.” No you
would not be. If you cannot command
happiness in your present position you
could not find it in another.
III.
row your whole soul and spirit in
to your work, and do It the best you
know how.
No matter what your work is, while
you are in it you must make a delight
of doing it well or you will never be
happy.
IV.
Get into the hnblt of doing bits of
kindness and courtesies to all those
who touch your life each day.
This means ut home principally. Any
one can lie polite and pleasant and
thoughtful when out on dress parade.
Hut the folks who love you rfiost and
whom you most love are those In your
jown household or Immediate surrnnd
ings. Try thoughtfulness, kindness
and courtesy with them—husband to
wife, wife to htftband. children to
parents, parents to children, brothers
to sisters and sisters to brothers.
V.
Adopt and maintain a simple, child
like attitude of confidence and trust
in God as your own Father.—From
a report of Dr. Charles E. Baker’s lec
ture, "How to Live to be One Hun
dred Years Old."

Meepytime Tales
LUCY AM) THE PRIYCE.
v«?»Ce, Up°n ,a time a 8reat many
jeafa ago a little girl named Lucy
lived with her mother In a small
cottage. The •cottage was In the
deepest part of the woods and
each morning, her mother went out
to cut down some bushes and chop
the wood Into pieces to sell to men
who came each month to buy it.
In this way she earned a small
sum of money, but it was very
hard work and Lucy often wished
some kind fairy would help them
One day as her mother Was chop
ping she said out loud: ”1 wish I
«iMrlch lf only for a Httle while.”
What would you give to be rich’”
asked a voice near by, and, as
she looked up she saw a tiny
little man standing beside her
He was very ugly and the woman
was frightened so she could hard
ly answer, but she managed to
say: “Almost anything.” "Well
well, your wish is granted if you
n ill promise in ten years to re
turn and give to me the first
thing that you meet when you
go home tonight,” continued the
voice.
Now as the woman’s dog always
came to meet her, she was willing
to promise, which she did, and the
man gave her a small box filled
with gold pieces, saying: "There
will always he gold In the box, so
spend as much as you wish, but
don't forget to return in ten
years.”
The woman ran home as fast as
she could to tell her little daugh
ter, and who should come to meet
her but the little girl instead of
the dog. This made the old wom
an feel very badly but as she had
promised she could not help It
now.
Just as the man had said, the
box wa8 always filled with gold,
and she bought lovely things for
her little daughter and for ten
years they had everything they
wanted and the little girl grew
to be very lovely and good.
At last the time came for her to
go to the old man and she told her
daughter that they must go back
to their old home and she must
go with her int othe woods where
she used to chop wood. At first
the girl was very sorry, but when
she caw how grieved her mother
was she tried to cheer her-up and
they both went together to the
wood and there was the little ugly
man waiting for them.
The mother handed back the box
and the little old man took hold
of Lucy’s hand and as soon as he
had touched her hand he changed
Into a beautiful prince and they
all lived happily together forever
after.
