SPEAKING OF HAPPINESS Marguerite Clark, once a famous and petite star of the seréen — the only real rival Mary Pickford ever had — has written an engaging little story about how she found happi- ness. It was, in brief, when she gave up her movie stardom, married Harrv P. Williams, in Louisiana, and settled down to raise—chickens, dogs and flowers. Babies? Marguerite does not mention them as identified | with her scheme of joy, strange to say. And yet no normal woman has yet found the fullness of true happiness, no home has attained that completeness that its name implies, until there are babies to bosom and house. It isn’t mere sentiment that these words voice, but it is expression of that law of nature out of which comes mother- hood, the greatest, loveliest thing in a human world. 3 The love of a dog js fine, Marguerite, and flowers make ragrant and colorful surroundings, but neither one nor both can possibly supply the beauty and great happiness of life that it is given only to woman to know and feel, in the flesh of her flesh—a baby.

Rather, he thinks, it will be propelled by a bicycle. Such a machine is possible. But it wouldn’t sell widely in our country. People are too lazy and too thrifty with their time.

At the Lausanne conference, be- tween representatives of Great Bri- tain, France, Italy, and Turkey, with some other powers participat- ing, the only British representa- tives were Lord Curzon, secretary of state for foreign affairs, and Sir Horace Rumbold, British high com- missiéner at Constantinople: Can- ada received no invitation to send a representative. ‘As Canada had no part in the ‘proceedings of the conference, the Dominion government took the po- sition that, in this instance, the parliament of Canada should not be asked to ratify the treaty. It is fully conceded by the Do- minion prime minister that, ac- cording to international law,Canada is bound by Great Britain’s ratifi- cation of the Lausanne treaty; ‘but Canada's exclusion from the con- ference leaves the Dominion parlia- ment free to decide, from the inter- imperial point of view, how far Canada shall be bound by any obli- gation that may arise out(of the treaty itself. Because of the Canadian pre- mier’s reference to other possibili- ties than the development of na- tionhood within the commonwealth of British nations, some people abroad seem to have @nisunder- stood the Canadian government’s position on the ‘Lausanne treaty. But it can safely be said that the desire of Premier Mackenzie King is to strengthen, rather than loos- en, the good relations between Can- ada and Great) Britain and the other nations under the British flag.—Christian Science Monitor. ADVENTURE OF THE TWINS BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON All the wood folk and meadow folk and barnyard folk came flock- ing to see Mister Zip’s park in the woods’ where Nancy and Nick were working. Such a busy place as it was! With the merry-go-round going ting-a-ting- a-ting, and the roller coaster going rattle, rattle, roar, and the ferris and the chute-the chuts going zing- g-g-splash! and all the people shrieking delightedly as the little boats hit the water—it was a noisy place. “We'll just. have to go and set what it's all about,” said mrs. Cracknuts to Daddy Cracknuts. “Here, Daddy, take your gold-headed cane.” “Does it cost anything?” asked Daddy, taking out his old leather pgsketbook which looked pretty flat. “It sys on the bills ‘Admission 10 cents,'” said Mrs. Cracknuts. “But I guess we can afford that; I'vo saved 30 cents on the housework this week by doing my own washing and ironing. I do think I ought to have a holiday.” “Well, that’s’ so, Samantha,” said Daddy kindly. “All right, we'll go and see everything we can see for 3C cents. Thats a lot of money.” Away went Daddy Cracknuts ant his wife to the park and by and by they came to the big, gate with the sign over it which said “Happy Go Lucky Park. Come In!” Daddy bought two tickets fron. Mister Zip at the ticket window, and then Mister Zip turned a turnstile which only let one person squecze in at a time. “Hello, Daddy!” cried Nick “I thought you would be coming soon, Mrs,,Cracknuts! Will you have an ice cream ‘cone or a glass of lex:on- ade or a pack of peanuts?” “Peanuts!” exclaimed “That. sounds pretty good. lieve Pll have a—” Here Mrs. Cracknuts pulled her Daddy.

Come on, M So away went the old squirrel ge tleman and his wife to see all the sights of Happy Go Lucky Park. Pretty soon they came to the fer- ris wheel. You know what that is, a big wheel as high as a ehurch steeple that goes round ever so slow- ly, carrying people in funny little seats to see the view. Only Mister Zip’s ferris wheel was only about as high as a-corn stalk, for Happy Go'Lucky Park was for very little people. The |Woodchiek boys had ‘just been up for a ride when Daddy and wife came along. imineezers, you ought to go up in the ferris wheel,” cried Wobbly Woodchuck “You can. see the whole world nearly from the top. I’m still dizzy.” Mrs. Cracknuts pulled Daddy's sleeve again and whispered. “Why, yes, I guess we can take a ride,” said Daddy. “Five cents a ride! All right, I'll take two tickets.” Nancy helped them on. (To Be Continued) (Copyright, 1924, NEA Service, Inc.) oo Some men stay away so much that when they do eat at home they look for the menu.

Brides Start Married Life By Air Flight London, July 9. (A. P.)—Honey- moon trips to the continent by air seem to be the fashion which is rapidly growing, and the swift and exhilirating flight across the chan- nel has now become recognized as an ideal way of starting married life. In nearly every case these trips seem to have been thought of the bride, and it has been naticed that she is invariably. the least ner- vous of the two when waiting for the airplany at the Croydon air sta- tion. : A Thought It ts mote blessed to give than to|’ receive—Acts 20:35.

Go OUT 76 The CounTeY AND SPONGE OFF OF UNCLE CHARLIE FABLES ON HEALTH— BREATHE REGULARLY Having become _ interested in breathing exercises, Mr. Jones began to inquire more deeply into the ef- fect obtained from deep, rhythmic breathing. And, among. found this out: When an ordinary breath is taken something like 10 per cent of the lung content is changed with each breath. When a deep breath is tak- en the entire lung is forced into action.and an immediate. stimulant is given’ the liver and abdominal circulation of the blood. This, in turn, has the helpful. re- sult of setting into action any stag- nant ‘blood in those two regions, causing it to be oxygenated. Blood other things, he pressure is favorably influenced and persons of high emotional tendencies can be benefited by a systematic course in deep and rhythmic breath- ing. Breathing should be deep and slow, carried on rhythmically. Some oriental races have worked out an interesting method to insure even- ness of breath. ‘They press a finger to the side of the nose, closing one nostril and breathing through the other; then reversing to. the: other nostril. While doing this it may be noted that the sound of breathing becomes audible and attention to this sound of air makes it possible to note whether the breathing is irregular. HOKUM—PLAIN HOKUM, BUT COMEDY ! DELIGHTS JUNGMEYER ANYHOW By Jack Jungmeyer NEA Service Writer Hollywood, July 9.—“The Self- Made Failure,” featuring Lloyd Ham- ilton and Ben Alexander, is a colla- tion of most of the old gags and hoary hokum at which folks have laughed since pictures first began to move. But after some of the high meat and rare confections we’ve ‘ been served lately by solemn screen chefs, this old-fashioned hash concocted by J. K, McDonald, producer, is most toothsome. The comedy, first to give Lloyd Hamilton seven reels of ludicrous leeway, toys with hick-town melo- drama based.on mistaken identity. Hamilton is a sentimental, whimsical tramp into whose keeping a dying crony has placed his son, Ben Alex- ander. The tramp is ‘accepted by the manager of a sulphur springs resort as.a long-expected masseur .upen whom further patronage depends, He and his ward become person- ages in the town, stumble upon guilty rets of the hotel proprietor who robbed a poor old lady of her 2 SRE OEE Sui LLOYD HAMILTON property, and-blunder to happiness including for all who déserve it themselves, after DON'T Nou KNQW THAT A Doe PersAires THROUGH HIS MOUTH, AND THAT IF AE CAN'T GPEN HVS MOUTH HE SUFFERS IN WeaTHEeR CAKES THis € NTHere A®S MUTZCES ON THS MARKET THAT PRoTecT THS Doe As WEL THE PUBLIC.

Priscilla:—Leslie and John celebrate their wedding anni- versary next Friday, and Leslie has been kind enough to say that I might invite you, my dear Priscilla. I hope you will .delay,..your return home until after that,,event. I hope, my dear, that.you did not take the little altercation between John and Leslie the other day as of any great moment. -I thought at the time that John had no right to find fault with Leslie for bobbing her hair, but thinking it over, I think you are right, in. your suggestion that Leslie should have waited until she had spoken to John about it, whether she followed his advice or not. I am finding out, my d that the young women of this genera- ation, however, are very independent. Leslie is a very sweet girl, but she does not always defer’ to John’s wishes in ‘the same way that I used to defer to John’s fathgy's wishes. “She is also patticilarly’ bent: on having her own way with little John, and seemed very much put out when she arrived home and found that I had been rocking him to sleep. '’ The first nigkt when she put him to bed in the dark, I nearly went mad he’ screamed so. I thought he was going to- burst a blood vessel, but she would not allow me to go near him, and Jolin agreed with her, although I was sure that the child would physically hurt himself. For the first time since I have know Leslie she spoke quite dis- respectfully to me “and said: “Mother I never dreamed that you would interfere in the regime_y that I had instituted for little Jack. No one rocks children now-a-days. It is very unscientific. The child should be taught to go to bed in the dark.” < For three nights that, gogr baby sobbed and moaned himself to, sleep, and when I men hat 1. was sorry for him, Leslie said, in a very abrupt and decided manner: “You certainly should be sorry for him, Mother, as it is all your fault. Babies learn very Quickly. At that age they are completely self-cen- tered little animals, and their physi- cal likes and dislikes are all” that they understand. I do not see yet why you should go‘into the room and take little Jack up after Sarah had put ‘him to bed. “Oh, I didn’t do that,” I said in- nocently. “I undressed him and ‘click of her teeth, and I coula”sé#! that she was trying to keep'“from'! say- ing something very ugly. “Your husband was always rocked to sleep, and, I am quite sure, Les- lie, if you had a child of your own, you would not be able to forego that hour of the day when a mother happiest, that hour when hi her babe in her arms.” “You will forgive me, Mother Pres- cott,” said Leslie crisply, “if I sav that I think perhaps Jack would not be so selfish if he had been brought, up scientifjcally.” (Copyright, 1924, NEA Service, Inc.) she ——$—$—$—$—$——$—$———— hearty laughs (counted at a pre- view).
