"Miss Fairfax, I decided when I KOt that far I was a failure. And I decided to find out why. It seemed to me to come to this: I wasn't bringing the right methods to my work.

"I , had been thinking a man wouldn't buy my goods if he didn't like me. Now I think men who re spect me and trust ma, who rely on my business judgment, will be bet ter customers than the fellows I could bribe with a funny story into giving me the orders my goods didn't warrant." Personality with nothing real and genuine back of it is the balloon ele ment of the business world. One prick . from the working rnd of a sharp pin and where is tlrc bal loon? You may count on personality to win you friends in the business world. Personality is your letter of introduction. To keep friends it wins for you, you must live up to the promise of your credentials. You must show business ability as great as your charming personality itself. , First Boy to Win Place on Musical Club Program goods if he did not like me. I didn't see that a man who bought my goods whether he liked them or not wasn't the kind of customer who would do me much good. Trading on Personality. "I was trading on personality. I had no ideas of the value of time.-1 always .tried to jam in some odd job between appointments, and sq hen it came to big appointments I was always five or ten minutes late and wearing myself out in apologizing and explaining. I was gaining and holding my big customers, not through busi ness ability and my power to con vince them that it paid them to trade with me, but by my social relations with them. "I used myself up going to dances and dinner and theater parties in order to make friends and keep cus tomers. "I was wearing myself out to achieve my effects. I was spending too much energy burning' the candle at both end. I wasn't systematic. I wasn't a good salesman. I was a popular society man who translated his social success into terms of busi ness. Now I'm going to see that ray goods are 0. K. and to sell them on their merits. I'm going to get five '"l8." w"i., r, 'Arthur. Ringwalt. son of Mr. and VU. man v 1X1 J aifiuiiiiiiikiii w uiv.

' Don't, confirm these old slanders: "Women talk too much;" "Women can't keep a secret." Don't pass along any information that your men folk may carelessly or trustfully pass along to you. Don't fail to report to the nearest officer disloyal or suspicious remarks or behavior on the part of anybody, native or foreign. Don't forget that some of the most dangerous enemies of the country in time of war are native Americans of .the greatest sincerity. Don't forget that this war will end to our advantage only when it ends with victory. Don't get discouraged. A short war and a hasty .peace may cost another war and greater loss of lives than cleaning up this war. Don't let jealousy of other women whose men get to the front or are kept at home make you suspicious of motives or influences. The organiza tions and individuals are all parts of a complicated machine; each cog must fit in its place and move when needed. Don't, accuse the stay-at-homes of base Motives. Many of them are more eager to be abroad than some that are there. The success of the men in France depends on the energy of the men at home. For every man in a trench a great many men are heeded in the rear, or the fighting line wiH-j fail of ammunition, food, supplies, funds, equipment and reinforcements. Don't forget thae cynicism and sar casm are the cheapest things on earth, but may prove deadly in Jheir result. Don't forget that it is treason to give aid and comfort to the enemy. Nothing comforts the enemy more than .the feeling that the war is un popular at home and that the people are against it. ' s Don't spread the falsehood that this is a rich man's war. It is being fought forthe welfare of the poor of the whole world. Rich men and their sons are. making sacrifices of life, wealth, and comfort in due propor tion to their number. Activities that tend to destroy, discredit or discour age honest wealth, attack the prosper ity of the entire nation and cripple its power. Gigantic industries make this nation gigantic, and give it taxpay ing, money-spending, money-lending powers equal to armies of soldiers. Don't rail against conscription. It is the fairest, squarest most demo cratic method ever devised. It was forced on the country by the terrific man power of the enemy, based on a conscription policy in force for gener-; ations. .

Roast chicken with milk gravy. Home canned asparagus or beans. Mashed potatoes. Rolled oats. Steamed bread. Molded prune pudding. Milk for the children to drink at each meal. Using Sour Milk And Buttermilk Sour milk and buttermilk are no less valuable as food for the body than sweet milk. They can be used in any recipe in place of sweet milk if one-half teaspoonful of soda is added to neutralize the acid in each cup of sour milk or butttermilk, and one remembers' that one teaspoonful of soda has the "raising power" of four teaspoonfuls of baking powder and reduces the baking powder ac cordingly. Examine this recipe for cornmeal bread: 1 cupful cornmeal. , i , Vi cupful flour. 3 teaspoonfuls of syrup. 1 cupful of milk. 2 tablespoonfuls of melted fat. . , -1 teaspoonful ot salt. Compare it with this one, also for cornmeal bread: " , 1 cupful cornmeal. 14 cupful of flour. Vi teaspoonful of aoda. 1 teaspoonful of baking powder. 1 teaspoonful of salt. 2 tablespoonfuls of syrup. . 1 cupful of sour milk. 2 tablespoonfuls of melted fat. Directions for Either. Mix the ingredients in the order in which they are given. Pour the mix ture into a shallow pan and bake it in a moderately hot oven. Cottage Cheese. Heat one quart of sour milk to 100 degrees Fahrenheit, or until quite warm, but not scalding. As soon as this separates from the whey strain the milk through a cloth. Let drain until free from whey. Season with half teaspoonful of salt and one tea spoonful 'of butter substitute or two tablespoonfuls of top milk. Buttermilk Cheese. Heat buttermilk gradually to about 130 degrees, or 140 degrees, Fahren heit. Chill, strain through draining cloth and press -ietween weights. This cheese has a very smooth cot' sistency and combines nicely with olives, pimentoes, caraway seed, chopped nuts or parsley.

Japan' s Richest Woman iMadame Suzuki is reported to be the richest woman in Japan, and un questionably she ranks among the wealthiest. But that is ment-oa rg about the cheapest .hing about the remarkable woman. She is at the head of Suzuki & Co., who is reported to have coined a few hun dred million yen since the begi.'nirjg of the world war. To be sure .-he has a remarkable man for her pr me minister he is called Kaneko Nio kichi, who is more famous for his shabby out-at-elbow clothes than his ability to amass millions. But the fact is that Madame Suzuki ha .'ust a remarkable premier in her vast and various undertakings from the sugar business in Formosa to the iron nmes in China, writes Adachi Kennosuke, in Leslie's. ; Madame Suzuki is the daugh:c of modest stock broker in the city of Osaka and married Mr. Suzuki when he was a petty, struggling merchant. When he died, however, he left what was considered quite a fortune in Japan in those days. The prestnt prime minister of hers, Kaneko. was then in charge of the business as he is now, and enjoyed the greatest free dom of action in the world a free dom in handling the funds which would be utterly inconceivable to American business minds. Kineko speculated and lost; the net loss amounted to a good many thousand yen more than the entire fo'une which his late master had left, to his wife and children. Kaneko actually had his foot on a cross bar ol a bridge railing over the Yodo river in Osaka ready to. jump into the ':old beyond, as the only fft apology for his terrific blunder. "I can die." said he to himself solemnly enough, "and that ' is easy enough. But my dying uow would not help the widow arid her children." ' Hi went to the widow, told hei of the loss and asked her to go back to her maternal home while he tr:cd to do what he could to straighten mat ters out. " "Very well," she said. And that is all she said. She did not ask him how, why, where nothing. She iook her , children and went back to her home. Her premier lives today like a mendicant after amassing not only millions but many hundred millions, with "her and for her, and his one dis sipation is his work. He is a walk ing curio in tht, streets of Kobe. Casserole of Vegetables. One car,corn. One can baked beans. One c. cooked potatoes (diced). One-half T. extract of beef. One c. hot water.
