Why Women Gamble
PARlS.—Several Paris wo; i
have recently incurred heavy losses
in stock speculation. They fell vic-1
tims to the prevailing gambling fever
race for ealth, and speculated,
unknown to their husbands, until
their losses forced them to con
fess. With silk stockings it $lO a
pair and evening frocks at S6OO their
effort to increase their pin-money
is not surprising.
BACKACHE AND
HEAVY FEELING
Weak, Nervous, Restless
Woman In Arkansas Hears
of Cardui, Tries It and Is
Greatly Benefited. Now
Recommends It To
Others
Peach Orchard, Ark. —Mrs. Nonie
High, who lives near here, states:
“Sometime ago I began to have trou
ble with my back. I would ache and
I could hardly get up when down. I
was so weak I would just drag
around and did not feel like doing
anything at all. I was so nervous
I felt I could scream, and . . . such
a heavy feeling I could not rest at
all. It looked like I was going to
get down in bed. . . .
I heard of Cardui and thought I
would try it and see what it would
do for my case. After taking a few
bottles I grew stronger . . . The
bloated, heavy feeling left me. I
wasn't so nervous, in fact, felt bet
ter all over. I took twelve bottles
and certainly was greatly benefited
and can recommend it to any one as
a tonic or builder. I often tell oth
er* how it helped and strengthened
me."
Cardui is a mild vegetable tonic,
with no bad after-effects. Its ingre
dients act in a helping, building way,
on the womanly constitution.
Ask your druggist. He knows
about Cardui. Some druggists have
sold it for forty years.—(Advt.)

DOROTHY DIX’S TALKS
Making the Best of Things
BY DOROTHY DIX
The Highest Paid Woman Writer in the World
HAVE been young and am
now old," said a woman the
other day, "and the sum of
all the philosophy that I have learn
ed is this —that if we wish to be
happy, we must make the most of
now and here.
"There is no use in waiting to
enjoy ourselves until the ideal con
dition of affairs occurs. It never
takes place, but this is a pretty
good old world, after all, with lots
of pleasant things in it. There is
no use in waiting for a cloudless
day before you have your picnic,
but even a picnic in the rain is
jolly good sport if you laugh at
the rain, and can see how funny
you look with your feathers wilted
down.
"Os course this is a hard lesson
for women to learn. We are waiters
by nature. We are always doing the
watchful waiting stunt and particu
larly we are always waiting for
the psychological moment to come,
in which we are going to let our
selves go, and be happy, and have
a good time.
"Somehow women seem to have a
dim idea that there is something
almost immoral in being happy at
the present moment, or getting any
good out of a thing while the getting
is good.
"You can see this in the way in
which so many women dress. When
they get a new gown, or a new hat,
they consider it wild extravagance
to wear them while they are new,
and smart, and in the fashion. So
they put them In their closets and
wear their year-before-last clothes,
and go around looking as if they
had just been fished out of the rag
bag, while their up-to-date apparel
is acquiring age and unstylishness
in uselessness.
"Why, I had an aunt who kept
her clothes so long before she wore
them that she frequently had them
made over a couple of times be
fore she had them on. She always
looked like a back number because
her good clothes were hanging on
hooks while she hung the ancient
vintages on herself.
"And haven’t you known women
who were notable housekeepers who
never had a bit of good jam on
their tables? In their pantries' were
rows and rows of jars of delicious
confections but they were too good
to eat, and the family was always
being fed on something that had
just begun to ferment, or to mould,
or that was turning to sugar, or had
something else the matter with it.
"Such a woman would consider
it a crime to cut a cake and eat it
while it was fresh. She always used
the stale cake until it was gone and
by the time they got through with
the old cake the new cake was
also old and stale.
"And look at the women who
never indulge themselves in any
pleasure as they go along through
life, because they are savin up
every penny to splurge on when they
get old. They would like to take
little trips, but they deny them
selves, so that some time in the
future they may have grand travels.
They would enjoy going to the thea
ter, but they won’t spend the price
of a ticket. so that at some indefi
nite season they may go to the
grand opera. They won’t even in
dulge themselves in a decent meal
at a good restaurant because later
on they expect to feast at the Ritz.
“But the time never comes for
them to cash in on their self-denial
and have the grand splurge for
which, ;they have been saving up.
When the. hour arrive* that they had
set to be happy' tap when they- are
to travel, and go io the opera; and
stop at swell hotels, they find that
they are too old and rheumatic to

go about, and too deaf and blind
to see and hear, and too dyspeptic
to eat anything but mush and milk.
“The only pleasures we are sure
of, are those that we get as we go
along, and we only get these by not
looking a gift horse too closely in
the mouth, or being too critical as
to whether they are eighteen karat
gold or only gold plated.
"And this same principle of mak
ing the most of now and here ap
plies to people even more than it
does to the conditions of life. To
be happy we must learn to take the
best that people can give us, and
let the balance go.
"If you have a friend, for In
stance, who is understanding and
sympathetic, and . a cheerful and
bright companion, enjoy those quali
ties in her. Love her for them, and
do not worry because she has poor
judgment, and is always running off
after some new fad.
“Or if you have a friend who is
sound, and sensible, and practical,
and dependable, rest your soul upon
her as upon the rock of a£es,
do not have your pleasure in her
marred by the fact that she never
sees a joke, and has about a* much
subtlety to her as a pick-ax.
“And learning to make the best
of things will do more to make mat
rimony a grand sweet song, than
anything else in the world. Every
thing is in the point of view. So why
should not a man say to himself,
“It is true my Eliza Ann would
never take a prize at a beauty show,
nor is she a scintillating wit, or
calculated to make a splash in so
ciety, but she is the best cook who
ever put a hand to a gas raneg, she
is a marvel of economy, and her
devotion is such that she would die
for me any day' of the week. There
fore I shall fatten on her good
cooking, her thrift will make me
rich, and I shall live happily in tha
peace of a man ■who has the kind
of a wife that he cannot lose.”
“And why, instead of fretting
about having missed her soul-mate,
cannot a woman say to herself: ‘I
know that my James is common
place, and bald, and fat and that
the only things that really raise a
thrill in his breast are planked
steak and a ten point raise in stocks,
but he is certainly one grand little
money-maker, and I will content my ♦
self knowing that a limousine and
bank account are better than being
really understood.”
"And, believe me,” said the old
woman, “this is the sum and. sub
stance of all happiness, for when
we learn .to like what we have, we
always have what we like.”

Movement to Revive
Hand Spinning Is On
NEW YORK, March 23—A national
movement <to revive hand spinning
and weaving of linen to relieve the
acute linen shortage has been
launched by the newly-organized so
ciety for the revival of home in
dustry under domestic art, it was
announced today. More than 250
spinning wheels have been collected
from home and antique shops by
the association which proposes to
form chapter in all sections of the
United States. Expert spinners and
hand-loom v savers, mostly immi
grants from Russia, will be engaged
in the work in the instruction of
novices, , . .
British botanists have succeeded
in breeding a new wheat known as
"yeoman,” which has yielded ninety
six bushels to the acre, three times
an ordinary crop.

. AGAIN A HINT OF THE ETON
Whisperings there are, very authoritative whisperings, that the
Eton is to be with us once again. Meanwhile, there are charming
hints of it on all sides, and some few instances of the real, real
thing.
In the hint class, though, is this delightful little tricotine thing
for an up-to-date junior person. Navy it is, as all good, practical
junior clothes must be, and with some shiny black braid' for deco
ration, besides some bright little brass buttons on its cuffs and
dangling from the sides of its jacket; then, finally, it has to its
credit a bright little bit of brass-colored kid belt.
OUR HOUSEHOLD
CONDUCTED BY LIZZIE QTHOMAS
Raising’ the Chickens
Dear Mrs. Thomas: Please tell us
how to raise our chickens. I shall
have fifty pretty soon, shall buy
them, so I feel reasonably sure of
starting with that many.
I wish I could get two of my cus
tomers to tell you just how they
do things, for I ship each one twen
ty baby chicks late in April, or
early May, and they have never lost
more than two out of the twenty.
I have raised a hundred and ninety
five out of two hundred. Last year
I sold so close to the edge that I
only had ninety-three and raised all
but ten. The first thing is to be
on the job all the time. I do not
mean that you must watch them all
the time, but at least five times a
day see them, and if they
have no mother hen you must see
t]jat they do not get chilled. The
mother hen is a hungry creature and
eats her weight in chick feed if you
have no separate place to feed them.
In March and April she must be
kept in the dry coop until the
chicks are at least three wfeeks bld.
I have only one brood. They hatched
the last day of' Jhn'Aary ’fcrirf' the
mother has 'never been out of a
coop made of wire. It Is four feet
square, part of it floored and that
part protected from wind, all of it
well covered. The chicks were kept
in there until three -weeks old, then
I lifted a corner and they come and
go. I feed them, before the other
chickens are fed, consequently they
are never run over or hurt by the
others. I have a regular place for
young chickens and’ their mothers
are confined in coops so as not to
let them fight, but I do not use that
until the green stuff is large enough
for them and I then have a yard
full and must keep them where the
other chickens will not hurt them.
Just a dozen or so can be in the
back yard.
If you have mother hens, do not
depend on one dusting to keep the
lice off of them. A great many seem
to succeed with powders, but.l pin
my faith to grease. Usually, *car
bolated vaseline. As I take the babies
out of the nest I put a little un
der their 'throats, on their heads,
and on the little spot left where
the egg yolk slipped into the stom
ach. The hen I grease thoroughly
around her comb, under her bill,
along the wing and just below the
vent. Then the little fellows get it
well scattered. In ten days or two
weeks do your job over, for there
may have been eggs in the hen’s
feathers.
All this is a lot of trouble, and
one really needs help, but I’ve seen
hundreds of little chickens droop
and die because their owners did not
have the time, or the energy to
make a good job of it.
You may fool yourself, but you
are not fooling a real chicken raiser
when you say that the little three
weeks’ old chickens, drooping all
over the yard, are not infested with
lice dr being drained, at night by
mites. Because you cannot see the
lice don’t say there are none. They
have the swiftness of light. Put
the vaseline on them and if they
are not too much exhausted they
will repay you. But clean up the
coop. This coop of mine has a sep
arate bottom and is moved at least
once a week, sunned in good weath
er and clean all the time. If one
cannot get an hour a day, some reg
ular time to look after their flock,
and other spare time when necessity
arises, my advice is to lo with only
a dozen hens.
Do not feed sloppy food to any

fowl, but especially young chicks.
I buy baby chick feed, rolled oats
and use some, stale cornbread. Noth
ing else except clean buttermilk and
after ten days’ some green stuff. I
give them dry mash and bran.
If you have any that seem to
be weak in their legs, feed them
nothing but bran for every other
meal a day or two. Wheat bran is
what helps make the albumen of the
egg and that forms the chicks’ bones,
so they need it as they grow.
When I send baby chicks I always
ask the one receiving them to please
open the basket in a warm room,
put them where there is no draft
and to please give them fresh but
termilk or the thick part of clabber
for their first meal. Then if there
is no baby chick feed, and for just
a few one. need not buy it, I sub
stitute hominy grits raw or stale
eggbread crumbled fine and raw oat
meal. Their little crops must be
filled about five times a day, and
its; astonishing how much water or
buttermilk they will drink.
Keep them warm, keep clean earth
in their box, and when they stop
eating take their food out for sour
food will kill them.
I believe I’ve touched on all the
vital points for the tiny ones. Suc
cess only comes to those who. are
regular in their treatment. I try to
answer all letters.

The Correct Posture
One of the first and most import
ant rules of health is to assume the
correct posture in walking, standing
and sitting.
Unfortunately, too many people
are ignorant of, or disregard this
rule and there is a tendency to as
sume the "asthenic droop,” or the
"vampire slouch,” especially among
the younger people.
In the first place it is unhealthful.
The normal relations of the organs
are disturbed. • The circulation is
impaired. The lungs are not given
the opportunity to expand. The mus
cles are lax, notably the abdominal
muscles and the functions of the
liver, stomach and intestines are in
terfered with. There is little doubt
that continued faulty posture aggra
vates neurasthenia and some of the
common ailments attributable to a
displacement of the stomach and ab
nominal organs. Nor is there any
doubt that assuming the correct pos
ture will be of very material aid in
remedying a condition of this kind.
It seems strange, in this age, when
people pride themselves on being
well-dressed, when neatness of at
tire is considered an essential in
business, that quite frequently the
most faultlessly garbed may leave
an impression of indolence by af
fecting a slouching walk, or slump
ing when they are seated.
To the neatness of attire why not
add the correct posture, not only as
a means of improving your health,
but as a business asset?
Set the shoulders back and square
them evenly, keep the chest high
and well arched, the stomach drawn
in, the neck in a vertical line, chin
drawn in and head erect. Acquire
the habit to walk this way, stand
this way, sit this way.
You will find that in a compara
tively short while you will begin to
feel better and have more “pep.”
You will command self-respect and
gain self-confidence. You will learn
that clothes will not "make the man”
unless the man helps by acquiring
a carriage that will impress those
with whom he comes into contact.
Bird Makes Home in Apple
COPENHAGEN, N. Y.—All win
ter a large frozen apple has
hung on a limb of a tree in front
of Paul Potter’s house here. For
several weeks Mr. Potter has ob
served a small, strange bird picking
at the apple.
On a recent afternoon he was
viewing the apple from his kitchen
window when the bird suddenly flew
away from it. Mr. Potter was sure
the bird had not been behind the ap
ple, but that it came out of the
apple.
To prove that he was not mistaken
he secured a ladder, placed it against
the tree, climbed up to the apple
and found the bird had dug out the
apple and had made a nest in it.
He states that there are three eggs
in the nest.
Mr. Potter believes the bird came
from the Arctic regions, and is of a
species of snowbird n«ver aee!B in

MARY MEREDITH’S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME__
Here is a lonely girl from Virginia
coming for advice. I hope my let
ter will be placed in The Tri-Week
ly Journal. I am twenty years old
and have several boy friends. Have
been corresponding with one tw»
years but I do not care for him,
though he’s a good boy.
I have another I’ve known for
three months and I love him better
than anyone else. He seems to
think lots of me when he is with
me. He failed to write last week,
but I saw him at an entertainment
Saturday, and he brought me home,
but left that evening and stayed
away until 12 o’clock at another
dance. When he returned he said
he had a racket with another fellow
and couldn’t get away sooner. We
were having a party at our house
and were still up. I talked with him
next morning at breakfast. He left
with some other boys without say
ing anything to me. As there was
another fellow hanging around me,
do you think this other one got an
gry? What can a girl do to stop a
boy from using bad talk and he has
to be called down repeatedlj wher
ever he goes? He is a nice-looking
boy and I like him. Should I call
a man down for dancing in my fa
ther’s house when he is away and
disapproves of it? Is it any dis
grace for a boy and girl to lie across
a bed at a dance?
I am afraid you aren’t choos
ing the proper company to as
sociate with. A young girl,
whether rich or poor, of high or
lowly station, should never for
get the instincts of right which
shoul dpredominate, and if she
allows privileges from men, they
can't and won’t have any respect
for her. I wouldn’t even think
of tolerating a man’s society an
instant whose lips let fall the
workings of a depraved mind.
My advice to you is to have
nothing at all to do with such
a person. And it is absolutely
disgraceful to lie across the bed
with a boy at a dance and no
self-respecting girl would do it.
I am coming to you for advice, as
I am in trouble. I am in love with
a boy twenty-one. He has asked me
to marry him, but I have decided I
am too young, but he says he loves
nm better than any girl he ever
went with. I am going to school. I
am in the seventh grade. I have
dark brown eyes, a fair complexion,
have light yellow hair, am five feet
nine inches in height, weigh 157
pounds, am eighteen years of age.
What color would be becoming for
a girl my age? I live on a farm and
like my home fine.
Will you please give me your ad
vice. LONLY GIRL.
I think you had better wait
a while and get a little more
education. If the young man
really loves you he will not mind
waiting a year or so for you.
In the meantime he could ar
range for the little home you
are to have some future day.
That will keep his mind occu
pied. Marrying is very easy,
but one must live, and to pre
pare a home for two is wise, be
fore the knot is tied.
Brown, yellow, pretty shades
of green and navy blue would be
becoming to one of your type.
I am coming to you for advice. I
am nineteen years of age, weigh 112
pounds, am five feet high. Do I
weigh enough? Am I old enough to
go with the boys. I am liking a boy
twenty-one years of age. He tells
me he loves me. We were engaged
one time, then I told him to let's
wait a while, and he quit coming.
When he sees me at town or at
dancs he comes up to me and stays
with me all the time and says he
loves me. Do think he does?
He wants to come back. Would you
let him or not. I went with a boy
the same age, broke up with him to
go with this other one. He said he
loved me and wants to come back to
see me. I don’t care much for him.
Let him come or not? How can I I
tell whether the boy I was engaged ■
to still loves me or not. I went
with a boy seventeen years old a few
times, and then he went off. He
said he thought a lot of me. I have
heard from him a few times since he
left. I am a blonde. What color
would be suitable for me? Can I
wear ribbon on my hair or high-heel
slippers? A LONELY GIRL.
You weigh enough for your
height and you are old enough
to go with the boys.
The young man showed good
sense. He just decided to give
you a fair chance with the oth
er men, and when he sees that
you really prefer him to the oth
ers I am confident he will ask
you again to marry him. The
fact that he seeks you and re
mains with you during the even
ing at a dance is proof of his
admiration. The boy of seven
teen is too young for you. Yes,
you can wear ribbon on your
hair, but ribbon isn’t worn as
much now as formerly. Don’t
put on high heels if you have
never worn them, because your
feet will always be better off.
I am a lonely girl, coming to you
for advice. I am in love with a boy
eighteen years of age. He seems to
love me very much. He is jealous of
me and don’t want me to talk to
other boys. What would you advise
me to do, talk to him or not? Is it
any harm for a girl to receive pres
ents from a boy? lam sixteen years
of age. Is it any harm for a boy to
kiss a girl? If so, I want you to
tell me what harm it is. How late
should a boy stay at night?
How often should a boy call? How
old should a girl be when she mar
ries? How long should I wear my
dresses? How should I fix my hair?
There is another boy coming to see
my sister. When they are together
they start to quarreling. What would
you advise me to tell them? There
is another boy who wants to come

to see me, but I like the first one
best. I don’t think I could ever get
along without him. Please answer
all these questions, as I have no
mother to advise me. She died when
I was nine years old. SUSI®.
I really think there is a little
jealousy in the heart o's every
one, when they love anolsher.
Some don’t show it quite as
plainly as others. If you really
love the boy you shouldn’t tea«e
him. Still, he should use every
effort to overcome jealousy be
cause he will be the one to suffer.
There isn’t any harm for & girl
to receive little inexpensive gifts
from a boy. The real harm In
kissing comes from the familiari
ty it brings on. A girl who wants
to hold the love and respeot of a
man must not allow him too
many privileges. Ten thirty fe
late enough for a boy to stay.
Det him call oftep, but don’t let
him stay late. There isn’t any
settled fact about how old a girl
must be to marry. Sometimes
circumstances alter cases. But
I think any girl is wise to wait
until she’s at least twenty. You
will have to judge for yoursejf
about fixing your hair. Don’t fix
it too elaborately, though. ft
your sister and her friend quar
rel so often they are unsuited
for each other and unless they
can control their anger, they had
better separate. Let the other
boy come to see you occasion
ally, if he is a nice young man.
It won’t hurt you to see more
of other boys.
Here comes twb chumi to you for
advice.
I am a fifteen-year-old girl and
have fair complexion, bilie eyes and
dark hair. What colors wm be the
most becoming to me?
Is it all right for a girl of my si*e
to correspond with boys?
What kind of dress goods wiM be
worn this summer?
Is it any harm for a girl to go
car riding with a boy by herself?
Is it all right for a boy to bring a i
girl a box of candy when he calls to I
see her? Which one should open the I
box first?
Navy blue, is most becoming
to a girl with blue eyes. In fact,
blue in any shade brings out the
blue more pronouncedly in eyes
of that color. It is all right for
you to write friendly letters to
boy friends. But never put in
a letter anything you would be
ashamed to read in after years.
Silk and ginghams and voiles,
will be worn this summer. I
don’t think there is any harm for
a girl to take a ride on a street
car with a boy friend in the
afternoon. A boy may bring a
girl a box of candy when he
calls, and she should be the one
to open it.
I am a seven teen-year-old girt with
blue eyes and light complexion And
dark hair. Is it all right to let a
boy come back after he had stayed
away for about two months? Is
it all right for a boy to go to the
kitchen and watch a girt cook? Is
it all right for a girl to receive
presents from the boys? When you
meet a friend on the street which
should speak first, the boy or girl?
Is it all right for a boy to smoke in
the presence of girls? Thanking you
for your advice.
DAISY and TULIP.
Perhaps after a month or so
away from you, has taught him
to care a little more for you.
I would let him coma back it
1 were you. I don’t think *C /
hurts the young man to see how
industrious you are. It depends
on the kind of present he gives
you. When you meet a gentle
man on the street whom you
know, it is up to you to speak
first. A young man should ask
permission to smoke In the pres
ence of a girl. It might be dis
tasteful to her and true polite
ness prompts him to ask.
