Are You One of the “Thrifty” People Who Re- fuse to Capitalize on the Joys of Today in the Hope of Having More Tomor- row? In Other Words, do You Nag Your Husband or Grouch at Your Wife-and Still Hope Some Day to be Happy?

Are you a happiness waster?

There are a great many people who are so thrifty that they never throw away even so much as a penny. They always snap out the light behind them when they leave a room even for a. moment. Every particle of food left over goes into the stockpot. They have the potato peels to a gossamer thinness. They save the backs of old envelopes, and use up a. lead pencil to the stub. ‘They drive their cars as little as possible be- cause they want to save their gasoline.

The only thing they waste is life. thing they throw away is happiness.

The only

I know a. woman who is throwing away her happiness by nagging. She married a young man who was the answer to any maidens prayer for a ‘ husband and he was wildly and romantically in love with her, but she is driving him away from her and killing his affec- tion for her by her nagging. He has got so he drcads to come home of an evening because he knows that he will be met at the door by a fretful voice reminding him for the millionth time to wipe his feet on the mat and complaining about his being three minutes late and never remember- ingjn hang up his hat in the right place.

The atmosphere in that home should be gay and joyous, but it is as dark and gloomy as a tomb because the woman at the head of it is

- always whining and complaining and thrashing over old grievances about

her husband lending an old friend some money ten years ago that hast never been repaid or the time he went to see his mother when she wanted to go on a pleasure trip. They have a beautiful car, but a. ride in it is a torture because she back-set chauffeurs and every minute prods him with admonitions not to drive so fast or not to go so slow or to watch out for a truck or ‘not to run down a dog.

That woman has happiness in her hands, but she is throwing it away.

I know a man who is throwing away his happiness by his grouchiness. He has a fine, prosperous business, a beautiful home, a. wife who is pretty and sweet and amiable and intelligent and a splendid housekeeper, beau- tiful children. All the materials of happiness, yet he makes out of them nothing but misery for himself and his family.

The very sound of his key in the door of an evening sends the tem- perature of the house down to zero. It huahes the children's prattle and makes the cat scuttle for the cellar. He comes in looking like the day of wrath, finding fault with everything that has been done and left undone. He‘ never speaks except to criticize or say something unpleasant. He finds fault with the food. He knocks his wife's management. He flies into rages over nothing at all and spends the evening in a sullen silence that condemns the universe and takes all the pep and flavor out of life.

This man's wife and children live in trembling terror of him. They never say a. word to him that they can help for fear of bringing down upon their luckless heads a torrent of abuse. They are glad when he goes off on trips. Thankful when they can escape from his presence. He might have the love of his family and their appreciation and grati- tilde for what he does for them, for he gives to them generously. He might have his children's arms around his neck. He might be their confidante and have them tell him all their hopes and plans. He might live in that paradise on earth~—a happy home. But he throws it all away for the sake oi his grouches.

I know plenty oi’ other people who waste their happiness by not con- serving the joy of today. ‘They arc like that character in “Alice in Wonderland" who says. "Jam yesterday. Jam tomorrow, But never any 1am today." There is never any Jam on their bread today, yet today ls all that any of us have.

How often do yoou see women who have good jobs for which they get goodo pay, who are following some occupation in which they are really interested, yet who make themselves wretched moaning and groaning be- cause they have to work and support themselves or because they are not married. Not getting a single kick out of the freedom and the financial independence and the careers that so many other women crave.

I-Iow few mothers gct illlf.’ rcul fun oil‘. of their children. Especially when they are little. They look on tlvii" babies as burdens and complain about being tied down by them and talk about. the sacrifices they make in having to give up their hrirlge and night clubs and being kept so busy. They are bored by having to wipe litile xicses and wash little faces and walk miles after little loo. And they miss the thrill and interest of watching a llttlc mind llfllfntl and the sweetness of n little head cuddled on their breasts and the greatest flattery that any human being ever gets, in having a little child lool: up to you as all-wise and all-powerful and all-good.

And look at the thousands and thousands of men and women M10 never enjoy life as they go alonz; who (leny themselves the good clothes they desire until it ls too late for them to dress up; who do without the good food they crave until they lmve lost their digestions and can only live on milk and mush; who put off the traveling of which they have dreamed from their youfh until they are so cold and rheumatic that all they can do is to sit in a chimney corner in a chair.

Happiness wasters, all of them. Foolish people who had happiness in their grasp and threw it away.

Don't be one of them. DOROTHY DIX.

GARDENING-

nooonena risul. MAKING A ROSE BID

In order to make a. goad bed. for roses where the soil is not natur- ally deep and where there is poor drainage, first remove the good soil from the surface, then remove the lower soil so that about two feet in depth of soil is removed altogether. Then, if the soil needs drainage, lay three inch tile on thmbottnm with sufficient fall to carry thc surplus water away, having, of course, some outlet for it. If this tile drairing is not practicable, some gravel or small stones below the two feet of sol‘. will help the drainage. Put good surface soil, preferably wth some clay in it, on the bottom. spread a heavy coat of rotted manure on it. and dig it in. Then put back the surface soil which had been removed from the bed, or better soil ii’ it is poor, and again dig manure into it, should make ‘good bed for roses.

TATTOO ARTIST IMPROVES ON BIOTHER NATURE

A Manchester, (Eng) artist can improve on nature. He can give a rosy glow to a ladys pale cheeks and put a charming cupld's bow on her lips.

And the blush will not rub off or wash off, and thc cupids bow is really kiss-proof.

For the artist who does this work is a tattoo artist. He is Tom Eng- lish, of Ardwick, Manchester, who learned the art many years ago aboard ship.

Linked Hearts Popular

Although he has given several young women a permanent blush and a charming cupidls bow, Mr. English says that these possibilities of tattooing are not generally known. Yet young women frequently come to him for a butterly tattooing on their back or a. fancy garter tattooing around their leg.

“But the greatest fancy is to have their sweetheart/s name link- ed with their own in two hearts," he said. “But

they change

supposing

ttheir sweetheart?" he’ was asked.

~ "They often do,‘ he replied, “and then they come back here and have the name taken out. One young woman has been back liere six limes already. Some day she will make up he;- mind."

mrasr ooimme TAKES cocoa or WEAREWS GOWN

The defiaiute who wears a green gown, in the opinion of Bernard Ernest Swiss, beauty expert, will be complying with the latest fash- glint of green gold in her hair. ion edict if she appears with the Ernest described a gliding pro- oess for coiifures at the conven- tion of the Ohio Hairdressers As- sociution.

If the fashionable lady's gown is

ed with green gold. The oolor will be heavy in the wave dips and light on the crests, Ehnest said.

And the gilt, he added, washes off easily, so that on the next even- ing the wearer may wear her locks tinted bronze to match a. new gown.

BEAUTWUL LIVES

Everyone feels instinctively that all the beautiful sentiments in the world weigh less than one lovely action; and that while tenderness of feeling and suceptibillty of gen- erous emotions are accidents of life, permanent goodness is an achievement and a quality of the life. "Fine words." says one home- ly old proverb, "butter no parsnlps" and 1f the question be how lo render those vegetables palatable, an ounce o! butter would be worth more than all the orations f0 Cicero. The only conclusive evidence of man's sincerity is that he gives himself for a principle. Words, money, all things else are comparatively easy to give away. but when irman makes a gift of his daily life and practice, it is plain that the truth, whaicvcr_ it may be, has taken pos- sesslon of him. From that sincerity his words gain the force and per. tlnence of deeds. and his money la no longer the pale drudge ‘t/wlxt man and man, but, by a beautiful magic, what erstwhile bore the image and superscriptlon of Censor seems now to bear the image and superscription of God.

NEW LIFE

Some of us are far too fond of routine. The older we get the mom we become slaves of habit. We de- vclop a fatty deseneratlon of mind, rettled ways and views. we become typical of our age, our occupation. our generation, moored to rusty conventions and prejudices, dis- trustlng new ideas, fearful of en-

terprises promising risk, ‘We are scared stiff of displaying

green. she will have her hair spray- -

originality lest we are dubbed ec- oentrlc. Every day and. in every way we do not get better and bet- ter; we remain, so far as we can control our circumstances, precise- ly the same. and we sincerely trust and pray that we shall be permitted to go on being the same for ever and ever.

Sometimes the crisis that comes along to stir those sluggish waters upon which we delight to rest brings new life with it. We hate it, ‘but it does us good. It braces the soul.

SPIDERS THAT FISH

seventh volume

The of the "Transactions of the Bose Re- search Institute, Calcutta," Sir

J. c. Bose, whose research work on plant life has gained for him a world-wied ‘reputation, describes diving spiders that catch fish, ants that build bridges, and other am- azing creatures.

“In a pond of water at Dum Dum I found a large number of diving spiders," he writes. "Numerous sun- fish or minnows were also swim- ming about in the same pond. When frightened, the fish took shelter under floating leaves and remained there until the danger was over.

“I noticed some four or five such fish feeding at the edge of a small nymphoid leaf; a female spider was also seen, sitting at the centre of the leaf, and watching the fish patiently for a long time. From the attitude of the spider a curs- ory observer would have concluded that she was absolutely indifierent to the movements of i‘ I minnows. "But the spider crept very slowly from the centre toward the edge of the leaf by alternately advancing and then stopping for a while. When sufficiently near she sud- denly fcll upon one of the small fish. about three-fourths of an inch in length: she caught the fish by the neck and inserted her poison fangs into it.’ In vain did the fish struggle to set itself free.

“I next attempted to photograph these spiders in the very act of Capturing and devouring fish. The task proved to be exceedingly dif- ficult. Success, however, attended my efforts after I had kept the solders in a. shallow vessel contain- ing water for five clays without any food. so that they became ex- tremely hungry.
