Waiting works wonders—if you
work hard while waiting.
Amb tion is all right if a man has
energy enough to back it up.
When an experienced parlor
maid has spent her savings she car
grab a broom and raise some more
dust. _
We notice that every new battle
ship launched, as in the case o'
the “Pennsylvia,” is the "last
word" in battleship construction.
And yet, as has been pointed out.
a very small torpedo puts the "last
word" out of commission in less
time than it takes to describe tha1
ship's battery, gun by gun.
Women who buy new hats thi;
spring should be as friendly to the
future as the well known* Scotcl
woman who, when asked by the1
charming saleslady whether she
would have a felt or a straw, said
she believed she would take tf e
straw as it would make a mouthful
for the “coo” when she was
through with it.
It is strange that the men whc
tell women her place is in the home
continue to overlook the plight of
tie thousands upon thousands of
g'rls who work in stores, officee
and factories, whose pi ice in the
home is not possible for them. Sc
many of the men who use this ole
argument against woman suffrage
employ these girls without a home,
too. _
HETTY GREEN.
Hetty Green, who is said to be
worth $60,000,000, and is usually
pictured as a hard-fisted, thin
lipped old woman without a tinge
of generosity or kindness in her
nature, has just submitted to an
interview on the condition of work
ing girls. It shows that she has a
pretty accurate idea of things at
they exist in this world of ours,
and that she has found time to
study economics questions, as well
as that of making money. Among
other things she said: "A girl has
a hard time being decent on six
dollars a week. A young girl is
the prettiest thing in the world.
It makes me sick to see her beauty
spoiled by silly dressing and a
make-up that screams for notice
wherever she goes. Every girl
should have pretty clothes —if she
can afford them. I’ve outlived
four executors and six doctors who
gave me less than a year to live.
1 turned the trick because 1 knew
what sound sleep, a clear con
science and plenty of good plain
food makes for long life. I never
hal time to eat lobsters or watch
la lies in pink tights with Wall
Sireet brokers. Sound business
methods do not mean crooked
methods. I never ask more than
6 per cent for my loans and very
often less, but 1 am mighty careful
of every cent. It’s all popycock
about a woman s feminism hurting
her in business. A woman's head
is as good as a man's any day if
she plays the game the way he
does and forgets the frills.” The
above will strike the average
person as containing a great
deal of common sense.

600D DISCIPLINE
By GRACE MOON.
“If you think any member of your
family needs a spiritual stimulant dur
ing the present Lenten season,” said
the girl with the camera slung over
her shoulder, “buy a tank and a scale
and a few dozen different chemicals,
and a book of directions and leave him
to his fate. The seede of humility, pa
tience and long suffering will bear
fruit a thousand fold.
“Don’t laugh; it's true! If you know
anything about the capital sins you
know that pride is at the head of the
list. To cure it, let some one take a
good swift snapshot of you when
you’re not looking. It can reveal and ;
correct more beauty defects than 62 |
visits to the shop where they make
you beautiful while you wait. When
that same snapshot is three or four
years old and you gaze upon the hat
hat was none too becoming in its best
lays, you begin to realize that the lily
>f the field had some advantages over
jolomon.
“As for patience, amateur photog
raphy is more instructive than Jlruce’s
ipider and more effective than Job's
soliloquies. When you have measured
jut lti ounces of hypo in a half ounce
icale—which means that you have to
oalance it 32 times, to the rhythmic
chant of ‘twenty grains ojje scruple,
three scruples one dram, eight drams
one ounce’—and then forget whether
the last measure was the twenty-first
or twenty-second half ounce, and you
have to spill it all out and begin over
again, if you can do it with cheerful
heart your spiritual condition is en
couraging.
“When you come home from a vaca
tion with several rolls of films and be
gin developing the best and most cher
ished roll and It comes out of the tank
distinct and clear and you drop It into
a bowl of Innocent looking hot water
which Bhould have been cold—a bowl
which a member of your family had
placed carelessly at your side—and
you see your jolly groups of bathers j
and canoers run into a shapeless mass
of gelatin and you hold in your band
a blank film roll, then if you can turn
to the offender and say with serenity:
'It's all right, I really don’t mind—’
then you have merited a triple halo.
"Do you wish to understand your
neighbor? Try a group picture. In
the first place, when it comes to posing
a group, have you ever observed the
serene indifference with which each
member regards the position and ad
vantages of every other member? The
most humble and retiring individual
luietly and persistently slides into an
Advantageous position, regardless of
.he same desire on the part of every
me else.
I “And when the same group haB been
I inished and you talk about light and
hade, tone and contrast—you were
iOt in it, of course—and you try to gei
rnyone else to observe these points
.nd you say, ‘Don’t you think the
hadows are good?’ your friend wll.
avarlably reply, T didn't know I had
i double chin!’ or ‘I certainly can't
vear a soft collar!’
“Then you suddenly realize that
,’our modest self-effacing friend has e
tormal ego.
"For social popularity the snapshol
s an open sesame. If with your ’bread
ind butter’ letter you can Inclose a few ■
mapshote of the infant idol of the
family, of your host’s new chicken
coop, or your hostess’ new porch set,
the Invitation to come again will bo
Sincere and urgent.
“When it comes to generosity this
gentle art of snapshotting has no
equal. Suppose in a rash moment you
have promised each of eight friends a
full set of 12 prints. After a prelimi
nary struggle with drams and scruples
you start in to print. Your family ad
monishes, urges and finally commands
you to be sensible and go to bed, but
you feel that you must persist in your
altruistic endeavors. It is midnight
before you get your 96 prints to wash
in a bowl of running water in the
kitchen sink.
wnen you return at the end or an
hour you find that several of the prints,
with the perversity of Inanimate
things, have slipped over the drain
and a miniature Niagara is splashing
down upon the floor.
“The heat has been olT two hours
and it’s ten degrees below zero, and
the kitchen has a west exposure, but
you open the door and sweep strenu
ously and exhaustively. And you hear
the splash of the water out the porch,
on the landing below, then on the walk
in the yard, and you think of the pro
file of drainage of the great lakes, And
you tread lightly and softly, partly be
cause you are reluctant to dislodge
the water soaked ceiling in the flat be
low and partly because you are afraid
of waking your family and bringing
down on your unoffending head a
chorus of ’I told you so’s.’
“After three hours of hard labor you
close the door just before the milk
man tears up the back stairs. And
then, when you come to the breakfast
table the next morning, heavy lidded
and sore of spirit, but discreetly si
lent, another of your household comes
in and says In a convincing and appeal
ing tone: ‘I’m dead tired! J didn’t
sleep a wink last night!’
“Then, if you can restrain your
words of contradiction and offer sym
pathy in soft and gentle tones with an
invisible smile for the audible slum
I bers to the rhythm of which you
j swished a broom half the night—well,
( amateur photography has done more
I for you than Gideon tears and long
weeks of faeting and sacrifice!"

NEW FURNITURE
The last thought follows the others—the next one is the
Monroe Furniture Co. Big Store
is the PLACE to find the QUALITY 1 like at PRICES I can
afford to pay.
By buying for our two stores and paying no rent, as we
own our own building, we can naturally do business on a less
margin of profit.
A comparison of our prices with others will soon convince
you of the truth oi this statement. We do not ask you to ac
cept it otherwise.
Write us today about the pieces you will need when you
clean house. We know the things yqu have been wishing for are
here. And the prices won't be as much as you thought. De

Human Factors in Good Service
'T'HERE are three parties to each telephone
connection—the party who calls, the trained
operator, and the party who answers.
The telephone user shares with the operator
the responsibility of good service.
Accuracy in calling, promptness in answer
ing, clear and deliberate talking and patience
on the part of the user and the operator, are essentials
of goad service.
In making 29,000,000 calls daily, millions of tele
phone users become integral parts in the Bell system
and contribute to the success of the service.

Nothing can hide from me the con
viction that an immortal soul needs
for its sustenance something more

GLEAMS
Lucky is the man who doonn't be
lieve in luck.
Money talks, but lC doesn’t always
say what it means.
Many a man has become intoxicated
with success, not thinking of the morn
ing after.
The man who is blind to his own
faults is also apt to be deaf to his own
conscience.
