A.IDAUCER § DEPENDENT ON OTHERS TO PEOPLE who harbor the foolish Idea that they are not dependent on others, there Is sure to come at some period of their existence a rude awakening. And this is true of everybody, the man or woman with five talents and those with but one talent. It is true of you! It is Immaterial how able you may be, how much money you may have, or how exalted you may be, you will, as you go through life, eventually dis cover that, aside from your ability and wealth, you are largely dependent on others for most of your dally com forts and happiness. Argue this as you may from the ab stract to the real, and turn back again to the beginning, you will find that your dependence on others is one of the most incontestable facts in the world. And It is only when you soberly Uncommon Sense By JOHN BLAKE BASED ON EXPERIENCE IT IS decision or the lack of it that makes the difference between first class and second class men. No man Is fit to command an arm; or even a company of Infantry unless he has decision. Hesitation in time of war Is fatal. It is dangerous and destructive in times of peace. No man can always make up his mind quickly and be sure he is right every time. Bu^ the man who does this oftenest, is the man who gets furthest in the world. All Important leaders of action oi thought are men of decision. This Is particularly true of execu tives, who have many men under them. To -such men hestitation means lost time—hundreds of hours of it, and is not to be tolerated. But be very careful, in cultivating decision, to base it on experience. It will be anything but an advantage to be able to make up your mind quickly If you make it up wrong every time. Neither you nor I would be able to decide Instantly between two reports of engineers as to the best course to run a railroad. A railroad president or general manager who was worth his salt could decide very shortly. He could do so because years of ex perience would have taught him how tc weigh the question, and to decide fot the combination that meant the easiest grades and the most traffic. But we can, or at least ought to, be able to decide' our own problems with out much waste of time. We ought not to hesitate more than half an hour over the choice of a still of clothes, or more than ten seconds over the choice of a necktie. Yet even to make trivial choices such as these, requires a knowledge oi ourselves, which is not lightly ac quired. Learn to decide, for decision means efficiency. But learn to decide right usk yourself why, that the truth comes with overwhelming force. • * • Self-dependence will not endure logical scrutiny. It cannot stand the simple test of common sense.. ' From birth till death, men and women of every degree are dependent on one another, forced by a natural law to rely on one another for support and favor. Everything worth having comes from others. Love, companionship, power and fame are the priceless gifts bestowed upon you by the kindly hearts and generous hands of those who are travel ing beside you through life’s sunshine and shadows. And you, whether aware of It or not, are giving something of which you' are possessed to weld a link In this endless chain of dependence, be ing constantly beaten Into new form and character on the anvil of Time. • * » Those who should understand each other with a fulness impossible other wise, should make daily notes of their inability to help or provide them selves without outside assistance. These notes may pain sharply as they are set down In long rows,* but If they are studied in the right spirit, they will soon sweeten the bitterness In the soul and allay the rancor. Indeed, if tills should be done regu larly, with good-will towards all man kind, the world will soon become a better place to live In, the needless animosities between man and nations would cease, and all hearts would beat happily In spiritual harmony.

I ask not fame, nor high estate. Nor argosies upon the sea. I only ask that loved ones wait To give sweet welcome unto me. I ask no crown of high finale. Nor plaudits from the crowing throng. I only ask a man’s fair chance To save my loved ones from all wrong. I ask not for the pomp and power Of those who rule from golden throne. I only ask that every hour I can provide well for my own.

YOUR HAND How to Read Your Characteristics and Tendencies—the Capabilities or Weaknesses That Make for Success or Failure as Shown in Your Palm. THE FINGER NAILS WE FIND sometimes In the hand of a woman short nails com bined with the following charac teristics : , The line of the heart (the upper of the two lines crossing the palm hori zontally) Is short, and the head line underneath It is straight and inclined to turn up toward the finger of Mer cury, the little finger. The mount of Mercury is flat and covered with lines, and the mounts of the moon and of Mars (at the outside of the edge of the palm) are high. The Joints of the hand are very plainly visible. These are the marks of a woman of harsh disposition and quarrelsome nature, and they are made more strong by the shortness of the nails. For a confirmation of this sign of quarrel someness, consult the triangle formed by the line of life, the line of the head and the line of health. If there Is a decided cross to be perceived In this triangle, we may say with fairly good assurance that the disposition of the possessor Is pugnacious and quarrel some. (Copyright.)
