THE ART OF FORGETTING
An exceptionally keen memory is
often a sign of ill health, claims a
medical editor in 1 London. A new
idea-4bis, that there is apt to be
something physically unfit with the
person who remembers too much of
the past, especially the uncanny.
I Strong and healthy people seem
able to forget the unpleasant things
of life—dismiss them from their
minds as we would discard old rub
bish not worthy of further thought.
The unhealthy, particularly the
brooding neurasthenics, garden their
troubles. They keep disappointing
memories in mind, nurse and coax
them along—like the people who
enjoy poor health.
The art of forgetting within reas
onable bounds is as desirable an ac
complishment as the development of
keen memory. All of us have rough
bumps and heartaches in life. If
we were not able to forget them ex
istence would be dismal and too
drab.
Memory has to do with the past
and the man with too strong a mem
ory is anchored back yonder “before
the war” or before something else.
Quite the reverse of the man who
is able to forget; he has rung down
the final curtain on the past and is
molding his life for the future and
the presnt.
Europe’s chief trouble seems to be
that she has forgotten how to for
get the past and allowed prejudices
and hatreds to consume her initiative
spirit.
Forgetting is not an error, it is an
effort of the will power, claims the
London medical editor; the stronger
our will power the easier to blot the
past from our conscious minds. A
good memory is most valuable when
accompanied by a good “forgettory.”
SIXTY YEAR OLD.
- Sixty years old Wednesday was
Wiliam G. McAdoo, who has been a
prominent figure in the public eye
since he entered the Wilson Cabinet
ten years ago. As Secretary of the
Treasury and as Director General of
Railroads during the war, McAdoo
became a national figure. Since his
retirement fro mthe Cabinet gave
birth to rumors thta he aspired to
the Democratis Presidential nomina
tion, every move that he made has
furnished food for conjecture. But
before he was geneally thought of
as a possible factor in matters of pol
itics and government, Mr. McAdoo
had by his achievements stamped
himself as a man of action and e man
of large affairs. Born of a Tenne
-Bee family which had been impover
ished in the war, he gained his edu-
Saul’s Sensational Slaughter
H. R. SAUL,
cation by native ability and pluck.
Choosing law as a profession, in
course of time he formed important
connection with banking and rail
road institutions, bought and man
aged traction lines, and crowned his
success by building the great tunnels
under the Hudson and North rivers,
btween Manhattan Island and New
Jersey.
The Augusta Chronicle says:
William G. McAdoo is the man of
the hour who is gaining strength
daily and we predict his overwhelm
ing nomination. We have already
shown that Texas will be for him
with her forty delegates, while the
entire south will swing into line. Of
course, Alabama will cast a compli
mentary vote on the first ballot for
her favorite son, Senator nderwood.
MAKING MONEY.
The man who "made lightning”
was the late Charles P. Steinmetz.
He probably could have made mil
lions, but he declared that he did not
wish for money. He drew a meager
salary. He said that if he thought
of money he would not work as well.
He only asked the General Electric
Company to build him a house and
laboratory. These were all he want
ed.
Here’s a man who was so en
grossed with his work that he did not
bestow a thought to the cash. He is
like the great Agassiz, who when ap
proached to deliver lectures and
name his own salary, wearily waved
the people aside and said, “Go away;
what time have I to think about mak
ing money?”
Some men know the value of
wealth. They have life and youth
and health, like Lewis B. Franklin,
and yet they early realized that
there was something more in life
than the finding if riches. They gave
themselves to great public enterpris
es and to church movements. They
thougßt it was more valuable to give
what was in them to a great cause
than to confine their efforts to
drawing salaries and piling up rich-

es. These are th emen who contri
bute to the growing good of the
world. They cannot take their mon
ey with them, but they can leave
monuments more enduring than mar
ble and give accounts of themselves
which banks and bond houses cannot
register.
No wonder that pulpits paid tri
bute to the great life of Steinmetz
and flags fell at half mast and pub
lic buildings were raped when he
died. It is very rre in these days to
find a man who rises superior to the
main chance and who thinks that
there is more in life than the accum
ulation of wealth or the exercise of
power or the realization of social
proihinence.
THE BRUNSWICK NEWS pre
sents this thought:
All the railroads across the Unit- 1
ed States would have been double
tracked long ago if we had not lis
tened to the politicians who demand
ed national and state laws regulat
ing the railroads and taking them
out of the hands of practical rail
road men. Politics will ruin any
business.
RICHARD LLOYD JONES
SAYS '
To Be Happy Keep Busy
You cannot test your muscle sitting still. You cannot find out what
I’our In-ain can do by going to sleep. Itei>ose is not a prodder to progress,
its proper place is after work, not before work. Work is for the liv
ng; rest for the dead. Be a live one.
Work is the noMe yardstick by which we determine the worth of all
lungs. It is a blessing, not a curse.
The man who never does anything never knows anything. The man
aho never works neier gets anything. He may be given things, but he
tan only again give. He knows no building game.
The traveled rail and the driving piston rod are polished by use. The
.die piece of steel is red with rust. Better to wear out than to rust out.
History is the story of work, the record of achievements. In its
index you cannot tind the names of idlers. Contribute something to
the history of something.
To know work as a friend is the hallmark of wisdom. It Is by
Journeying through the shadows of life that we learn the solace of
daily tasks.
The tenderness that denies effort is cruelty. It makes characterless
iliat which was endowed with strength.
Work is expression, if you can't express yourself one way try an
other —but try. If you can’t build a cathedral, dig a ditch. But do
something.
Only workers win the world’s respect. God does not hold us respon
sible for results; ouly for faithfulness.
Work is the greatest educator. Tackle a Job that is a nttle above
i ou; grow to it and you engage in work. Tackle a job that is below
mil and you engage in drudgery. Put your lieurt into work and your
labor becomes the light of life. h
Work is the highway to human welfare.

A blame haphazard method in transact

overplus of kecrlessness in 'tendin' so our

mighty ticklish fix.
It ain't so much of science as it is of
common sense —that concludes a man is
lazy when he's allers on the fence. —and to
see a feller negligent in front of urgent
calls, is to visualize the brambles that will
prod him as he falls. . .

Any question* on etique.’.o
will be gladly answered in
this column if addressed to
A. Leda, care of this news
paper.
before me I have a letter from
a lc-Jer and though my reader’s ar
gument is very plausible, it is, how
ever, incorrect. The letter reads as
follows:
Dear A. Leda : Will you kindly ad
vise through this paper the correct
position of a gentleman walking
with a lady as regards being be
tween her and the curb and be
tween her and others walking on
the walk. I contend the man should
be on the woman's left, thus keeping
himself between her and the passer*
by.
Yours very truly, *
A Reader.
Though it seems, this assumption
might be correct, it is not. A man
should always walk on the side near
est to the curb,' whether he is with
one, two or three persons, this rule
has no exception. The origin of this
rule on Etiquette, like many others,
we do not know, but probably it was
the possibility of a horse's nose or
automobile bumping those nearest
the curb that ruled that man, the
protector, as well as provider,
should take that place.
« * *
Dear A. Leda : If a woman meets a
man at a tea or danc-e. may she in
vite him to call at her home or
should she wait for him to suggest
it? Whose place is it to speak
first?
Thank you,
Marion D. Penn.
This is a very technical point,
Marion, and varies in different parts
of the United States. In certain
sections a woman takes to herself
the right to invite gentlemen to call
upon her, while in other localities it
is the custom for the man to ask
permission and the woman to grant
It. There is. however, an unwritten
law in the code against a young lady
asking a man to call on the first
meeting. Par better to wait till a
second, or even third meeting and
hen say something like this:
"I should be very glad to see yon.
Mr. Brown, we are usually at borne
in the evening.”

heals the eczema right up and leavefc

LADIES! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma’s bags Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
Will Know
The use of Sage and Sulphur for re
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's time.
She used it to keep her hair beautifully
dark, glossy and attractive. Whenever
her hair took on -hat dull, faded or
streaked appearance, this simple mix
ture was applied with wonderful ef
fect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a bottle of “Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound,” you will
get this famous old preparation, im
proved by the addition of other ingre
dients, which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair.
Well-known druggists say it darkens
the hair so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied.
You simply dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one strand at a time.
By morning the gray hair disappears,
and after another application or two, it
becomes beautifully dark and glossy.
Have Kidneys
Examined By
Your Doctor
Take Salts to Wash Kidneys if
Back Pains You or Bladder
Bothers
| Flush your kidneys by drinking a
quart of water each day, also take salts
occasionally, says a noted authority, who
tells us that too much rich food forms
acids which almost paralyze the kidneys
in their efforts to expel it from the
blood. They become sluggish and
j weaken; then you may suffer with a
dull misery in the kidney region, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache, dizzi
ness, your stomach sours, tongue is
coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
gets cloudy, full of sediment, the chan
nels often get sore and irritated obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night.
To help neutralize these irritating
acids, to help cleanse the kidneys and
Hush off the body s urinous waste get
four ounces of Jad Salts from any phar
macy here: take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for a
few days, and your kidneys may then
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon juice
combined with lithia, and has been used
for years to help Hush and stimulate
sluggish kidneys; also to neutralize the
acids m the system so they no longer
irritate, thus often relieving bladder
weakness.
. J ad is inexpensive; can not in
jure and makes a delightful
cent lithia-water drink. By all means
have your physician examine your kid
neys at least twice a year.
