Sir Andrew Clark, the famous phy sician, had a patient who was afflicted with a complaint that Sir Andrew in formed him would only need a little time to put right. The information did not cheer him at all. He was one of those joyous individuals who look back at all the afflictions of the past and forward to all the' possible afflictions of the fu ture. He had, he declared, been be ing "put right'' ever since he could remember and then he understood that such an illness as he had pre disposed one for a perfect host of other inflictions. If Sir Andrew Clark "pullled him through" on this occasion, was it likely he would suc ceed on the other future ones? The great physician at last got an gry. I can cure you of what is the mat ter with you," he said, "but ifyou are not content with one complaint at a time, but are determined to compH cate it with a dozen you haven't got. no skill will save you. Think it over and let me knew tomorrow when I call what you have- made up your mind to. Good day, sir." The natieut. having the state of af fairs put to him as plainly as that, re solved to be content with one com plaint at a time and leave the others till they actually assailed him. There is a terrible dissipation of energy in meeting imaginary troubles half way. Persons of a pessimistic disposition are ever popping off on such excur sions and the meeting docs not come off after all. They feel sure then that trouble must have decided on com ing by the other road. They have missed it. It's nowhere about. They must have mistaken the day. Trouble will come tomorrow. "Concentration on the present wor ry is half the battle half the victory," declared Roosevelt. "You need all your forces directed to one end. Don't let them be scattered. Mass your energy and you will win. It is excellent advice, but we poor human creatures are apt to shirk that concentration. We don't look wor ries in the face because we fear the face will be toOi ugly for us. We can imagine that face. It is the most hor rible face in the world. We shudder as we think of it. If we really looked on it we would find it nothing so for- A WHITE voile waist, frilled with white organdy ruffles, edged with rote, blue or black, is pretty and serviceable, too. In gabardine or in pique, the white skirt, with real pockets and at tached belt, may be had for a very moderate turn.

You can well afford to wait a number of years before marrying, and if your interest in this young boy lasts it will be a fine thing on which to base mar riage some day in the future. Don't be so mercenary as to put him out of your life just because he has not a great deal of money. Yo AniMd YoorMlf. Door Mlu Folrfat: I am SS, and know younf man who la vary fond of mo.

Mark Twain knew a man who lived by laying ghosts or, perhapt, I should say, presumed ghosts. He took to the ghost-laying line "by persuasion of his wife,' declared Mark Twain. The fact was, not' being particular ly happy with that lady he hit upon the idea when a house was for sale, tenanted according to popular repute by a frightful ghost to buy it as a bargain. His wife would never oc cupy the house, and he was prepared, in pursuit of peace and happiness, to take the house with the ghost to liv ing anywhere else with his wife. , His boldness in facing this spectre got him a reputation. Then the atory spread of how he had actually met the ghost and the apparition had been utterly worsted in the encounter. So people sought him to come and lay ghosts on their premises, and he did quite a profitable business. Having made a fortune he retired and, being no longer dependent upon ghosts for a living, he now and again spoke verjj contemptuously of "the whole breed ' in confidence to Mark Twain. In a time of emergency one needs "temporary expedients" what will suffice for the occasion. "It's only for a time." I find a good number of people who want to make a perma nent job of dealing with a difficulty that will necessarily, ill time, remove itself. They are like a man with whom Archibald Korbes once found him self in a boat in the middle of an Irish lake. The boat was an old dilapi dated craft and suddenly developed a startling hole in the bottom, through which the water poured in such fash ion as extinguished all hope of their ever reaching the bank unless "some thing was done." Forbes' companion thereupon pro ceeded to explain all that was needed to make the boat perfect. If he only had some proper wood there, a ham mer, nails and everything would be right. But the boat was sinking. Forbes took off his coat and stuffed it into the hole. It was all that was needed to save them. They had time to reach the bank. In the temporary trouble one wants to "see oneself through it." It is probably as much as one can do. Ur gency forbids one striving to combat it in the most perfect and permanent fashion posible. It is hard, perhaps, to reconcile oneself to a makeshift. But it may be all that is possible at the time.
