I was a youth," begins Brlghtslde, as the
human ready reference library drifts In to
Instruct his parent In worldly wisdom. '
If your folks hand you a lemon when
they pass out the handles you can always
change it," Is Son's consolation.
To name a baby Isn't always as easy
as It looks," declares Father, whose ex-,
perlence was limited to one.
Married people always have a string of
pet names that they want to tack on to
the first kid," protests Son. "If he's a
boy wlfle works over some girl names to
fit him and If it turns out a girl Pop usu
ally gives her a knockout."
There are many things to be taken Into
consideration when naming a child," ex
plains Father.
The old folks never seem to worry about
the fact that the victim has to carry the
mora or less fancy title around for life","
protests Son. "Merely because the mother
once had a beau by the nam of Percy Is
no reason why she should hand It to ber
Innocent and helpless little son. Or If she
approved of some great general or dead
and gone president Is no excuse for label
Ing the offspring with a piece of punk."
"I suppose parents are somewhat sent!
mental about such a matter," hedges
Father.
'Just because a fond papa happened to
be coming home when Halley's comet faded
away doesn't give him any license to glue
that dlssy proposition to his boy," asserts
Son. "Yet that Is what one did. I sup
pose he figured that the kid would turn
out to be a shooting star, but he's more
likely to beat it from the old homestead
and - not show up again for seventy-five
years after that blow."
"A boy with that name ought to become
a shining success," Father facetiously sug
gests.
When he goes to ask for a Job the boss
would probably look at him through smoked
glasses and then tell blm to fade away,"
fears Son. "He's be about as popular as a
tallow candle In an electrlo light men's
convention,"
"Personally, I prefer the old fashioned
names," Father says.
"Hand a girl one of the old-timers and
when she gets back from boarding school
she'd have to Introduce herself to her own
parents," declares Son. "Plain Marys

Persons who fret over warm weather
suffer much mora from the temperature
than those who Ignore It. This is not In
tended as an axiom, but Is a fact,' because
heat suffering is largely of the nerves, and
therefor to allow the mind to dwell upon
only Increases the trouble.
A woman whose days are spent at home
will be stronger nervously and physically
ah occupies herself In some way through
out the day. It stands to reason that shs
should not undertake severe physical work,
unless she is obliged to, and, when neces
sary, she is to dress for It, cooling off
afterward as rapidly as la compatible with
safety. One who Is down town doing office
work is obliged to keep on Just the same,
and, unless dally conditions are more than
ordinarily difficult, ah will be well and
not exhausted through the summer weeks.
When a woman finds herself prone to
think what a wretchedly hot day It is the
best thing she can do is to try .to forget It.
This Is not easy or altogether possible.
but there Is no use in taking tna stand
that she cannot endure it, for not only can
she, but she must, unless she belongs to
the lucky class" that can hie her to cooler
climes. Of course, it Is hot in July; it
would be silly to deny this, and the line
of action for her to pursue Is to admit It,
once for all, and then, still keeping busy,
do what she can to mitigate conditions.

the same way. You could tell the minute
you saw her ah belonged to on of the

dare wear such things if she didn't. And
the maids the very first time they catch

really despises men the way this on does.
I think It Is unkind of her, because ther
really are so nice. I think myself lt'efvery
sweet of them to want to make all thai laws
and govern the country and save us all that
bother. She said that women had much
higher, nobler alms and ambitions than men
