Have You This Habit?
By Margaret Morison
TACTLESSNESS
THE very day of Mrs. Jones’ dinner
party. Mercy and Percy Lord heard
of Edward Jones’ divorce from his
wife.
"Dinner is to come off Just the
same,” said Percy, "but for heaven’s
sake, Mercy, don’t bring up the sub
ject of Edward."
A few hours later the Lords arrived
at the Jones house. “Good evening,”
said Mercy to her hostess, “bow Is

Edward?”
Jt was always like that; she always
said Just what she hadn't meant to
>ay. Outside she carried it off smil
ing. but inside she was “full of dead
men’s bones."
At last they went In to the table,
and Mercy drew a deep breath and
fixed her attention firmly on the
things she must not talk about. She
must not mention isilltics or religion
In a general gathering. Then, “How
shall you vote?” she heard herself
asking her dinner partner; and re
membered too late Percy’s saying that
that was the unforgiveable direct
question to a man. “My husband la
a Republican," she hastened to add
as her neighbor declared himself a
Democrat.
So it went from had to worse. The
climax came when, growing more and
more rattled, she took up her knife
and fork to deal with fried chicken,
and, before she knew ft, gent her side
bone sailing down the table square at
the guests two seats beyond her.
“Catch it on the wing.” cried that lady
rescuing the escaped bird; and Mercy,
when everybody laughed instead of
looking embarrassed, wondered why
she could never turn an aw’kward
situation into a Joke.
As they left the Jones’, Mercy
heard one man say to another, “If
Mercy Lord were my wdfe, I'd send
her to a sanitarium.” Percy, as was
his custom, looked sad and said noth
ing.
But that stray remark set Mercy
thinking; and one day she went to see
the great Doctor Williams, who was a
family friend. After he had heard
her out and asked several leading
questions, Doctor Williams said:
"You're obsessed with the Idea of
what you mustn’t do. Loosen up—
stop struggling to avoid Imagined so
cial dangers—think of what people
like Instead of what they don’t like —”

OBSTRUCTED CRESCENT
TT IS a general superstition througb
out Europe and the United States
that If you see the new moon through
trees or shrubbery you will have trou
ble all that month. In some parts of
the country they have a rhyme which
goes:
See the new moon through a glass
See sorrow while it lasts.
That Is, you will have bad luck for a
month. The reason is easy enough to
see. The new moon, the crescent, is
the favorite form and symbol of the
moon-goddess; call her Isis, Artemis.
Diana or what you will. From the
moon-goddess In her crescent form
emanate the beneficent Influences
which mean good luck and prosperity.
Now, If when you first see the new
moon In the sky. first hail the crescent
goddess in the monthly beginning of
her manifestation, there Interposes be
tween you and her the boughs of trees
or the branches of bushes, or the bar
rier iff glass It Is evidently n sign that
while that moon lasts —forthat month,
in short —you are cut off from the
beneficent influences of the goddess
Consequently sorrow and bad luck.
This is the survival of a very ancient
Idee and in this connection it may be
well to quote the words of William
Wells Newell with regard to survivals.
"The modern survival exhibits those
fundamental conceptions out of which
grew the complicated rites and elab
orate mythologies of ancient religions.
“In this manner, as from a height of
observation, we are able to look back
beyond recorded history and t® trace
the principles of historic development.
So may be elucidated problems which
neither metaphysical nor historical re
search has proved adequate to ex
pound. Comparative study of folk-lore
has placed In our hands a key which
Ingenious theorists, proceeding with
the Imperfect knowledge of antiquity
which can be gathered from books,
have lackeel and for want of which
the) have wandered hi hopeless error.”
THE DAYS RIGHT
AFTER
By DOUGLAS MALLOCH
WHEN they had come away from
her and left her In her house
alone.
When there was nothing more to do
but cut his name upon the
stone,
I thought how cruel kindness is, how
selfish all our sympathy,
When they had come away from her
and left her all alone to be.
When he was there, and in the house,
however pale, however dumb,
When still his earthly form she had,
then it was good of us to come.
But, oh, the days right after! then I
think they need us even more
Than when the shades shut out the
sun and when the crepe Is on
the door.
Let’s never get our kindness done,
let's never let our comfort end.
As long as sorrow needs our love, as
long as trouble needs a friend.
Let us remember, in the time of loss
and loneliness and care,
The days right after always are the
hardest days of all to bear.

THE FIRST NAME
By DOUGLAS MALLOCH
<po KNOW the fellow that I meet,
And meet him with a smile,
And not unknown to walk the street
Unnoticed all the while —
Oh, that’s the road I want to go,
I want to have a friend or so.
To call the fellows “Pete” or “Bill,'
Not "Mister” all the time,
Will keep me younger on the hill
Os Jlfe I have to climb —
Will make me feel a boy again,
And do the same for other men.
To have men called me what they di<3
Back there in boyhood day»,
The things they called me when a kid
Is sweeter than the praise
That any flatterer may give,
Will help me more my life to live.
The last name is the name of age,
The first the name of youth;
I pray you, backward turn the page
To innocence and truth
When I was young, and so were you,
And call me what they used to do.
