A Sure Cure For Crpw’s Feel,
“Be sunny” has grown to be
something of a catchword, but
it is a pretty good all round mot
to lor every day life as well.
The cook may have gone away
in a temper on the very day ot
your dinner party—it’s a way
cooks leave—or the dressmaker
may have failed to send home
your new frock in time for Mrs.
So-and-So’s reception, but
irowns and tears and grumbling
will not help matters in either
case.
It may be that the world con
tains other cooks, or even that
the same one may be induced to
return in time to save the day.
And it not, why not pitch right
in and do the best you can your
self with the best grace you can
muster? If your dinner does not
turn out quite as you would like
just make a joke ot the whole
aflair and let your guesta laugh
wth you. Bless you, they, too
have troubles ot their own, and
they will relish almost any sort
of a repast that is served with
laughter sauce*
And as for the dress that did
not come, why just do without it
cheerfully. You have other
irocics, possibly, and if vou furb
ish one of them up a bit and
wear it with your lightest heart
and your gladdeBt smile, people
will simply wonder why they
never knew before how pretty
you are and how tastefully you
dress. That is, the people who
count for anything. And as lor
the others, who tares about what
they think, anyway?
There are receipts} by the
score tor eradicating wrinkles
and keeping crow’s feet at bay }
but a cheerful mind discounts all
of them. It isn’t easy to be
cheerlul when things go wrong,
you say. No, but it doesn’t help
any to be grumpy, does it? Then
iu the (expressive slang ot the
day, ‘forget it.’’
Cheerfulness is a habit, just
as much as worrying-only it is a
good deal pleasanter for your
self and (everybody else. Get
the habit, then, and the first
thing you know the worries ufill
have taken flight. In a cheer
ful atmosphere they find them
selves so distinctly “out of it”
that they prefer to make them"
selves scarce. Therefore, be
cheerful. It may cost you
something at first, but it will pay
iu the end.
How to manage it? Look out
instead of in. You are not the
only human creature who has
troubles. Every woman has
them and most men—so you can,
□ot lay claim to exclusivness
along this line. But the world
is a pretty good world on the
whole, and you will enjoy it
more than you do now when you
begin to look out on it with un.
clouded eyes,
Leave the house or the office
or the school |room behind you
once in a while and Jtake a
breathing spell out in the open.
And when you do go out, do not
always go shopping. Don’t
bother with bargain days unless
Troubles Of a Telephone
Man.
Winter, with its snow and
sleet, has its terrors *to the tele
phone man in the South, because
it encrusts the open wir-s with
sparkling strands ot glittering
jewels whose weight breaks
down the lines and snaps off the
poles and cross arms. It does
cause other troubles, though, be-
cause no where in this country
are there such quantities of
beautiful trees, and at no time
do these beautiful (?) trees cause
so much noise and cross-talk, all
kinds of “cross” talk, as during
the winter rain and wind Btorms.
The telephone man dreads the
sleet more than all others, though
the lightning during the summer
showers does its work also to the
poles, wire and the central office
equipment. No one knows like
the telephone man how expen 1
sive it is when these disturbing
elements itouches his plant
Some know how expensive it It
when his water pipes freeze and
burst, so it is with the telephone
man. He knows how expensive
it is to mend the broken down
wires and polos and also the cen>
tral office equipment when light
ning does its work,
Let the clouds envelope the
skies and threaten to rain, with
the thermometer about the freez*.
ing poiDt Jand there is rest for
the telephone man. He lives
in constant dread. Cyclones
and tornados do not trouble him
as the appearance of sleet does

“Alone The Kennebec* 4
The next big attraction to be
seen in this city is that sterling
New England play, “Along the
Kennebec,” which will be given
in all its entirety, wealth of rural
scenery, the great quarry scene
with its working | drills and
real steam engine at Rink Opera
House, Carrollton, Tues. Jan
18. The company is one of best
traveling |and numbers many
well kaown players, including
some |clever speciality artists
The characters aie all unique
iu originality and there are
several .types entirely new to
the stage. In all, the play in its
entirety will compare favorably
with the best of JNew England
plays, such as ‘-Old Homestead’
“County Fair,’’ and * Shore
Acres.” The comedy duel scene
in the third act is very funny
and is said to surpass the cele
brated duel scene in Joseph
Jefferson’s play of “Th. Rivals.’
S. I. Club.
After a short rest during the
holidays the Club met Jan. 7,
and rendered quite an interesting
program. |The members seem
to have enteied with new zeal
into the work of the New Year
and hope to accomplish much
good. The Club will meet once
every two weeks instead of
every week as heretofo e.
