V,' I IV Ts I ; W iVi 1 3 ;:'-iA I Tour Will Playi Important Part In ; Aiding Beauty. ' s, By Abigail Moore. " 1 There la no woman . so ugly or so unprepossessing that she may not make herself attractive If she will. Mark the word "will." There Is much virtue la It. For many generations of American women the win was an agent of martyr dom, only to be exercised in compelling one to do unpleasant things. We are awakening to the fact that our wllU may JuBt as readily be turned, to ac count In more agreeable ways -for ex ample, in making ourselves healthy, and In aiding and making greater o.' beauty and attractiveness Boauty and health both are certainly gifts to be coveted, and It Is not only a pleasure but a duty each one of us owes to herself and to the world to make just the most possible of whatever gifts the gods saw fit to bestow upon us at birth. If we do not. It is a case of wrapping the one talent in a napkin. Not every woman may, by taking thought, turn malformed features Into beautiful ones, but she may cultivate a charm that minimizes even a dls flgurment to the point of elimination. So think health, thiuk beauty, till It la the foundation upon which you are builded. Nature only asks to be treated kindly to respond, and hor law is always that of simplicity and common sense. and the first step she would have us lane toward acquiring an understand ing of her lsto train the mind and the Will.- .. ' ' -:.- Think right and then you , will do right, for not without thinking can the muscles and the nerves be made to per form their functions properly. Unless you have seriously thought upon - the subject, you will not have thought that the training of the mind begins with the freeing of the muscles the muncle must be anhampered, the nerves clear, then, the way to the mine) Is unobstruct-, ed. Honoe normal exercise of the body, particularly the eVen, smooth, well-directed motions of the aesthetlo methods, tend to stimulate the brain and to set the mind In healthy motion. , Incidentally the swimming movements are among the most efficacious ex ercises, as you may readily prove for' yourselves. Misdirected force, remem ber. eall tnr a strain iinnn ntrvom tension and must not be mistaken tj make for health. Neither does undue muscular tension. If. while you think, you work your Hps, move your fingers incessently, twitch the head and so on, you are taking out of the muscles as much as you are putting Into your health by your right thinking. Remember every healthy thought in stigates a healthy emotion which direct4 a muscle, and In turn has its influence upon the nerves. Breathing Is another medium for stimulating healthful thought and action. Breathe evenly, deeply, rhythmically; this clears away Jangles, and creates a marmony of mini and body which has direst influence upon health. - " for your superior and, of course, for yourself. If you are ambitious to rise- in your job, take one detail of the work after another from your superior. He, or sne, nas enough to do without bother ing over countless little thlnes that attend every Job. If you can show that your knowledge and your capacity for handling these things are exact and ut terly to be depended upon, it won't be long before you get a rise. Slipshod work is the curse of every establishment. The girl who Is never guilty of It Is the exceeptlonal girl, the girl of mark. The stenographer who can reply exactly to her employer's questions regarding letter and orders and visits and calls is a treasure. That employer will make many sacri fices before he gives her up, and be willing to pay high for her services. Why should you not be that ex ceptional girl? The prizes of life are for the few who really take the trouble and do the work. You don't need to exhaust yourself nor to burden your mind with all the details of the busi ness, but I iv those where you desire to specialise make up your mind to be exact.

BurgeRR. (Copyright, 1913, by J. U. Lloyd.) Sammy Jay had thoufiht out a plan to get even wl:h Chatterer the Ked Squirrel for the trouble he had got Sammy and Mlstali Mocker Into with thir neighbors of the old orchard. "Of course, it won't do for either of us to call on any of our feathered friends in the old orchard to asu any questions. They won't listen to a word but will fritch Into us before we can say a word, just as they did before," eald Sammy. "1 never could understand why pe''le are always ready to believe the bad things they heur and never listen to the good things. When peo ple say I've done bad tilings which I haven't done at all, I always feel Just like (,-otnic out and doing them then, jiiHt out of Bplte. So, as 1 was, saying, it won't do for either of uh to call on our feathered neighbors In the old or chard, and yet 1 want to find out if Chatterer has been seen there lately." Mlstnli Mocker scratched his head thoughtfully. "Johnny Chuck lives there now, doesn't he?" he asked. Sammy's face brightened. "That's so! Why didn't I think of him before?" he exclaimed. "Now while I . look around a little in the Oreen Koreet you go call on Johnny Chuck and find out If he has sen Chatterer In the old orchard lately." Mistah Mocker agreed, and Eammy told liim Just where to look for Johnny Chuch, down In the far corner of the old orchard. Ho off ho started. Now Mistah Mocker knew that it Wouldn't do to let any of the birds who live there sog him. You see, all of them were his enemies now because they thought that he had helfled Sammy Jay steal the egga of Drummer the Woodpecker. Of course he hadn't, for Sammy hadn't stolen the eggs at all. liut everybody believed he had, and so there was nothing for Mistah Mock er to do but steal up to the old or chard secretly. It made him feel very uncomfortable, very uncomfortable, indeed. 'Ah feel like a sneak," he muttered to himself. "If anybody should see me dodging In and out of the trees and bushes this way they would be sure that Ah was guilty, Ah don't like it a bit, but Ah reckons there's no help for it" At least ha reached a snug hiding place In an alder tree that grew by the turabled-down stone wall close by Johnny Chuck's home In the far corner of the old orchard. lie waited and waited end at last when his patience fas almost gono Johnny Chuck came out to sit on his doorstep. "Good mo'ntng. Urer Chuck," said Mlsta'h Mocker In a low voice. - "Good morning,". replied .Johnny, lookirg up in surprise. "1 haven't seen you for a lpng time. How did you find out where I live?" "Oh I a little bird told me," said Mis tah Mocker, and then both laughed. "To' sho'ly have a mighty likely place fo a home, .Brer Chuck," . continued Mistah Mocker. 'Have yo' many neigh bors?" VNot too many; but enough," replied Johnny Chuck. "Drummer the Wood pucker has built his home in that old apple tree, and Winsome Bluebird has a flna family In the next one. Skimmer ' . vi-' V ' " " jav --sV the Swallow makes his home up here, too. They are very fine neighbors, who mind their own business, Mistah Mocker." Now, when Johnny mentioned Drum mer the WoodpecRer Mistah Mocker had to turn his head to hide a smile, for to find out Just where his homo was was ono of the things he had come for. "Yes." he replied, "they sho'ly are good neighbors, the very bast of neighbors; but Ah should think yo' would miss your old friends of the Oreen Meadows and the Green Forest, Brer Chuck." . "So I would If they didn't come to see me," said Johnny. 'Uno' Billy Possum, Jimmy Skunk,, and Peter Rabbit drop around whenever they are up this way, and lately Chatterer the Red Squirrel has made me a morning call almost every day." "That's fine," said Mistah Mocker. "Now, Ah know where yo' live I'll call mahtelf whenever Ah happen this way. Ah reckons Ah must be moving along now, but Ah eert'nly am oomlng again scon." "Do,'" replied Johnny Chuok. "Ill al ways be glad to see you." And with that Mistah Mocker re turned to the Green Forest the same way he had come, chuckling all the way to think how easily he had found out all he wanted to know.

' By Jessie Roberts," , There Is a yirtueHST exactness that will parry Its possessor far along the road of success. If you are exact In your work you will make a favorable impression on the people above you. Make yourself familiar with th de tails of the work done by the person immediately above you, so far at least as It touches your own work. If you are the kind of girt who can give an exact reply when' asked about some V v i- ' . . . detail of the work, you will be valuable. If your superior knows that when you say a thing he can lay It asiJo a 5 fet tled, he will want to have you around. When you do not know tho exact an swer, say so. To reply that you do not know the detail in question will it do harm. But to equivocate, to bluff, to leave the impression that you know when you don't, will only lay up trouble WIFE GOOD AT COOKING BUT WON'T DO IT; DIVORCE Hillsboro. Or., Aug. 21. The number f divorcees who have for some months been making this county seat the ave- ue for release from marital troubles, keeps on growing. Testerday W. H. French of this county asked divorce from Catherine French. She waa a widow whenhe married her ln'Novsm- er. 1910, at Tillamook. In his com plaint he pays her a high tribute as a competent cook and efficient housekeep- r. but Insists that her culinary ability s discounted by her reluctance to turn to practical use In his Interest. He says she la an indolent housewife, and has heaped upon him cruel and inhuman treatment, and personal indignities, making his life burdensome and' unen durable. Though the couple are said to own property in this county, no mention of It Is made in the complaint. Mrs. French has two children by a former marriage, a girl aged 10 and a boy aged 6 years. lig Itottom May Leave Forest. Centralis, Wash., Aug. 21.
