International Newt Service. Are Your Thoughts Workers or Wanderers? By ADA PATTERSON. Are your thoughts workers or wan derers? Are tliey honest, industrious la borer or idle loiterer along the highway of life, tramps that know not tw care where they go? Do they work steadily and ear nestly, with dignify, sobriety and ef fect, or do they lose their force by devious wanderings and time by aim less dawriline? 1 'I he chief difference between the men yew know is in the way they think. That man who opens his desk with a determined bang, opens his mail with an air of concentration and begins his day's work as the engi neer starts his engine down the track is thinking in the riRht way. The one whose desk is beside his and who opens his desk with a yawn, who lights a cigarette before he opens hi first letter, who leers at the girl who sits at the typewriting machine and flings an idle jest at the office boy, is thinking in the wrong way. His thought engine will rim off the track and overturn in a ditch before the day is spent. A good many keys have been offered to open the door of success. A charming personal ity, an engaging address, the knowl edge, of human nature and the abil ity to apply that knowledge, a prac tic al education, have all been offered, but none of these turns the lock so quickly as does systematic thinking. Thought is the only miracle worker of modern life. The magic of an idea is the only witchcraft of latter days. The highest building in the world was built because less than forty years ago a man had an idea that he fol lowed as devotedly as the wise men of old followed the star that led them to the birthplace of the Christ. A tunnel was built through what had been termed the river of the lost hope, uniting the largest city in the world with the greatest continent, because a man had an idea and did not dis miss it, but thought of it systemati cally every day. A great mail order business that is a city within a city, that has its own railroad and its own postoffice, originated in a street car conductor's writing a letter for a watch, and his comrades requesting him to do the same for them. 'He thought about the incident, as the clerk who opened his desk with a bank and went at his mail as though lie were starting an engine down the track. He thought of it every day, not fitfully, and wishfully, but long ind consecutively and as a builder erects skyscraper in time, indeed, he did Jirape the sky of finance. Jlow lo you think? Do your 'houghfs drift in and out of your mind in aimless fashion as stray visitors jrift through the house in informal tails ? Do your thoughts burst up ward as water spouts from the nor tie of a kettle and splashes some where and are gone? Do they effer vesce in much talk, highly charged waters blowing out the cork of si lence? Or do thy act as sober soldiers on long nwrc'h? You know, and I know, persons whose thoughts ought to be arrested lor vagrancy, as surely as any tramp vho snores in the sun. Every successful career has started upward at that point at which its Dwner began the habit of systematic (linking. Never waste your thoughts. Guard them as an engineer the fuel of his 'ngine. Be more careful of them hn of the coins in your pocket. For of them will your future be built. t-f M-.T-r- mm wmi .'win wyok -. wif Milt W'V .'V'AW W.WJJ r- .15&K3QSF ' 1 A .

DON'T make that tragic mistake of letting your small sister, who is intensely interested in you and your beau, be your ambassador too long when you send her down to be bright for that young chap until yon cornel For her little red tongue, will trip along with some things that will light a queer shine in his eyes prechance! Who know? "Do you know Mr. Jack Thus-and-So?" she will lisp. "lie conies to see my sister. lie has red hair, and my sister likes it red hair. He comes, oh, lots. Father doesn't like him as well as you, but mother likes him better! And I like you better. My sister likes your eyes. She said she did. She said, what? I don't remember what else she said. Do you know my sister does her hair up in curl-papers? That's why it's all so darling wavy. Don't you like it? I do. But curl-papers look funny. My sister said not to talk too much, 'cause, she said, all men like to talk about themselves and you did, too, even if you were a dar- lirig! But you haven't said anything yet.' My sister" And these terrible "my sisters" will go on and on, babbling like a gossipy little brook. And perhaps your lover's eves will glower horror-stricken as it goes; or perhaps they will lighten ex ultantly because he knows now something you've demurely hid den. The queen's messenger should be followed in haste!

We .want something and we don't know what. We walk through the park and exclaim with Joy at sight of the little crocuaes pricking up through the sod. We come down to work and get through the day's tanks somehow with at laone one eye alert for the nit of blue sky we csn aee through the window.

Many students have doubtless ob served that one of the commonest flower colors is a sort of purplish pink that often just misses becoming a distinct rose or a decided red. As a mattes of fact, good reds and pinks are comparatively rare in any flora, and the reason for this is coming to he well understood. The normal color of the pigment which produces both red ami blue flowers is this same purplish pink. When the sap of the plant is alkaline this purplish-pink turns blue, and when it is acid the flowers become pink or red. When this is realized several other peculiarities of flower talfl EI(C;iE AK03IE S(Ull(l' I atlrrlng nf our springtime la as mu.-h J V la-" ".-""' l ' t fl ar a f m Yvii.

For in stance, there are many blue flowers, such as the lungwort, which are pink in the bud. As the flowers open and oxidation processes reduce the acidity of the cell sap, the pink of necessity become blue. This also explains why so many blue flowers have pink couuuterparts, or the reverse. - I.et a strain with a tendency to acid cell sap appear in a race of blue flowers and its blossoms are likely to become pink or red. The rose-cotored variety of the common New England aster may be explained in this way. There are also many white flowers that are pink either at the beginning or end of their period of bloom. Apple blossoms and the flowers of the white 1 r il I in tn and cotton will come to mind in this connection. We do not, however, have to de. pend upon instances like these. Al most any pink or blue plant juice j may be used to demonstrate the facts. I Any one who will boil out the color j from a purple cabbage may turn the I juice blue by the addition of a few drops of ammonia or a little baking soda, and restore the original pink color by addinir a few drops of vine j Rr or other acid.
