(Voltaire, 1604-1778, was a Frenc] her wiiter, author of “Zagi incess of Babylon, In a suburb of Babylon Zadig had an elegontly decorated house, where he brought together all the arts and pleas- ures worthy of an honest man. He brought together in his house the most honorable men and the most amiable women in Babylon. He gave dainty sup- pers, preceded by concerts and enlivened by charming conversation whence he ma) to banish the desire to show off one’s own wit—which is the surest ‘way both of having none and of spoil- ing the most brilliant party. Vanity in- fluenced the choice of neither his friends mnor his viands, for he preferred in ev- erything to be rather than to appear. ‘This habit of mind made him genuinely esteemed, although he did not lay claim to any special appreciation. Opposite Zadig's house lived Arimaze, & person whose mean soul was depicted on his coarse face. He was corroded with gall and swollen with conceit, and to cap those qualities he had a tedious wit. He slandered the world in re- ;‘;nge for his complete lack of success it. Although Arimaze was rich, he had great difficulty in getting sycophants to come to his house. The carriages which entered Zadig's courtyard each evening annoyed him; the noise of Zadig's re- nown firritated him still more. Occa- sionally he went to Zadig's and sat him- self at table without being asked. There he spoiled the company’s pleasure, just as harpies are said to defile the meats they touch. i ‘When one day Arimaze wished to give a party in honer of a lady, she refused his invitation and went to sup with Za- dig. On another occasion, while he was talking with Zadig in the palace, they came up with one of the ministers, who invited Zadig to supper and did not invite Arimaze. The most implacable hatreds often have no more important cause. This man, whom every one in Babylon called “Arimaze the Envious,” wished to get rid of Zadig because the latter was always called “Zadig the Happy.” As Zarathustra says, “The op= portunity of doing harm presents itself | & hundred times & day, and that of do- ing good once a year.” { ‘The Envious went to Zadig's house and found him walking in his gardens with two friends and a lady to whom he often paid compliments without other intention than to be pleasant. The con- | versation turned to a war which the king had just concluded successfully against his vassal, the King of Hiroania. Zadig, who in this short war had shown his cours praised. the king greatly and the lady still more. He took his tablets and wrote four verses which he composed on the spot and gave to this beautiful female to read. His friends begged him to let them hear the verses. Modesty, or rather a quite under- standable 'vanity, stopped .Zadig. He knew that impromptu verses never seem good save to her in whese honor they are composed. He broke in half the tablet on which he had just written | and threw the two pieces into a rose- | bush, where his friends looked for them in vain. It started to rain a little and they returned to the house. The Envious staved in the garden and searched so hard that he found a piece | of the tablet. It was broken in such a | way that each half of a verse, which | filled a line, made sense verse of shorter measure: but by a still stranger chance these little verses made a sense which contained the most hor- rible insults against the king. This is what they said: = “Through prodigies of vice Established on his throne, Amidst the public peace He is the foe alone.” For the first time in his life Arimaze | the Envious was happy. He held in his | hand the means of getting rid of a| good and charming man. Filled with | this cruel joy, he arranged for this satire in Zadig's writing to reach the king himself. i Zadig was thrown into prison with his two friends and the lady. His trial was soon over, without the judges con- descending to hear him. When he came up for sentence, the Envious waylaid him and told him at the top of his voice that the verses were worthless, Zadig | did not plume himself on heing a good Poet, but he was in despalr at being condemned as gullty of lese majeste and for him.

Zadig threw himself on the and very humbly begged their pardon for having written such bad verse, He spoke with 50 much grace, wit and sense that the king and queen had a fancy to see him again. He returned, and pleased them still more, They awarded him all the goods of Arimaze the En- vious, who had accused him unjustly, But Zadig gave everything: back, and the Envious was touched by nothing but his joy at not losing his belongings. Day by day the king's esteem for Zadig grew. He made him a partici- pant in all his pleasures, and consulted him in all his affairs. From that time the queen looked on him with a gra- ciousness that might become dangerous for her, for her august husband the king, and for the kingdom. Zadig be- gan to think that it was not so difi- cult to be happy in this life. Lessons in English BY W. L. GORDON.

When this was worn over an off-white linen dress the effect was pleasing and well bred. Both these coats were of hip length and both had pockets in true cardigan style. Natural colored hats of balli- buntl were worn with these outfits. On the golf links one day Nancy saw two other coats which pleased Her. One was worn by a spectator who was later going to a tea. Her coat was cut on cardigan lines, but was made of quilted crepe de chine. It, too, was reversible, one side being white and the other a soft blue, A long coat which reached almost to the hem of the dress was of printed linen, well tailored. The turned over lapels show the white linen which was used for the entire lining of the coat. This was so put in that the white side could be worn either in or out. “Re- versible coats,” sald Nancy, “are de- cidedly . the thing to e or to buy and to wear.” The cuffs and lapels of the linen coat were stitched in tailored rows.

SCHOOLGIRL asks me if I will give her my idea of a girl who is & good sport. Well, my dear, my idea of & girl who is a good sport differs from that which seems to be popularly held by the young women of today. They call themselves good sports because they drink and pet and smoke. T don't think that sort of girl is a good sport. T think she violates every rule of sportsmanship. and children she may some day have. My idea of a girl who is with her mother and father. 1 think she cheats her family. She cheats the husband She lowers the standards of her sex. a good sport is one who plays fair. And she begins She doesn't take everything and give nothing. She makes a return for the love and care and money that have been spent upon her. She doesn't grab off all of the pretty clothes and good times and privileges and perquisites in the family and then never so much as say “thank you” for them. She doesn’t let mother sew her fingers to the bone making her a party frock and then, when mother asks her where she is going and when she will be back, tell her it is none of her husiness and she will come in when she pleases. She doesn't keep her father hump-shouldered paying her bills and then scoff at his opinions as those of a senile dodo. On the contrary, she recognizes that her parents have worked hard to rear her and give her the advantages she has had, and give them a run for their money by being sweet made many sacrifices that the least she can do is to d and affectionate and companionable to them and causing them as little anxiety as possible. .. .. ¥ idea of a girl who is a good sport is one who has the brave attitude toward life. There is not a whine in her whole system. She never sits down and weeps and laments because she has to stand behind a counter, instead of before it, and because she ha¥ to ride in the street car. Perhaps she would like to be a play girl instead of a working girl. Undoubtedly she would like to wear the silks and satins and jewels and furs that she sells to richer girls.

Straight Talks to Women About Money BY MARY ELIZABETH ALLEN. Endurance Vs, Insurance. We talked with a young woman em- ployed at a job that is destined to wreck her health, It is of an un- usually exacting nature, one with long hours and little opportunity for sun- light. This young woman recognizes the logical result, but her reply is she is putting away money so that when she is in poor health she will have something to live on. In other words she is trying to in- sure herself against a certain fate. That sounds sensible enough, but we wonder if it would not be more sensible to avert the fate. ‘There is no adequate compensation for one’s health, and no amount of “'in- surance” sufficient to cover our loss. The savings of two or three years may quickly vanish in three or four months of illness or convalescence. We can think of few persons so benighted as to save to be sick! Where there is no opportunity to work healthily and healthfuilly, there is also no opportunity for a future. There is no epportunity for a future-either in life or in one’s career. Often one may earn a slightly higher salary than may be obtainable elsewhere, but one can never be fully repaid for what one loses in health, strength and vigor. ‘There are a few positions in this world in which we frankly trade our health for a salary, and we can un- qualifyingly say, not one such job is worth holding. ‘We address this especially to young working girls whose powers of recupera- tion from severe nervous and physical ~ Goes onTig strains are greatest, and who may be blinded by that fact to the more sig- nificant one that they are undermining their future health.

If they do not balance, make a sacrifice now in dol- lars. It will have been the greatest bargain in your life. One can not but feel overwhelming pity for those who sell their youth, strength, health, and beauty to a job. No amount of money is worth any one of them. Apple Muffins.

The vacation season is almost here and most of us are planning what to do with the precious hours of leisure brought by the annual Summer holi- days. The purpose of a vacation is not merely to provide a thrilling good time, which may leave one fatigued and re- luctant to return to one’s regular rou- tine, but it is mainly to refresh mind and body. The girl who starts out on her vacation with a feeling of listless- ness, a sallow skin and jumpy nerves will return full of “pep.” with & clear, healthy skin and improved poise if she has planned wisely. A distinguished physician and writer has given the following simple rules for a successful vacation. It behooves every one to consider them thought- full First. Choose a type of vacation that will be a bypath from the mental groove of daily life. Second. Indulge in physical exercise, but not beyond the limitations of tissue repair. Third. Select a place that is health- ful, including pure water, milk and a good food supply. Fourth. If some people irritate you unduly, keep away from them on your vacation. Fifth. Rest at least eight hours of each vacation day. Sixth. Avoid undue exposure to the sun, the cold, the rain or other inclem- | ency, particularly if you are subject to respiratory infections. Seventh. Have a physical examina- tion before you leave o that you will know your physical possibilities. Eighth. A good vacation is one in which you will enjoy yourself thor- oughly, ‘in which you are rested when you are through, in which your mind blistered, with coarsened skin, this Summer as a result. While a moderate amount of tan is healthful and beauti- ful, an extreme case is neither. It may take weeks and months to restore smoothness and fineness to a badly sun-burnt skin. Hair that is exposed too long to_the hot sun becomes streaked and dry. The glare on sandy beaches, on water or motor roads causes squint- ing and eye wrinkles, unless precau- tions are taken to protect the eyes. All of these things should be taken into consideration if milady does not wish |the vacation days to multiply her | beauty problems. (Copyright. 1929.) When a pitcher of claret with schmercase made up the menu at Rose’s famous wine house on Shepherd road off the Seventh Street pike? A Sermon for Today BY REV. JOHN R. GUNN. Doing Good in Good Way. Text—"Let not your good be evil spoken of.”"—Rom., Xiv.16. Paul recognizes that it is possible for good people to provoke evil comment upon their good. He recognizes that good things may be done and yet be discredited by the manner in which they are done. People often do splen- did things, and do them with the best intentions, and yet spoil it all by the way they go about it. “Let not your good be evil spoken of.” This means that we should not only do good but that we should study how to do good. The trouble with many good people is that they never give any study to this matter. But it should be remembered that there is an art to doing good, just as there is an art to doing other things. And this art re- quires just as much care and study as any other art. Only by patient dili- gence can we learn to do good skillfully and winsomely and thus avoid having our good evil spoken of. This is a matter that greatly needs| to be impressed upon all who go out to do good. If we are going to be kind, let us learn to be kind kindly. If we are going to do nice things, let us learn to do them nicely. If we are going to do good, let us learn to do it in a good | way. Let us practice our virtue and good with a smile upon our face instead of a frown. If we would make our good attractive and smile instead of frown- ing in our virtue, we might make good- ness a more popular thing in the world nd win many more people to its cause. Hot Tamale. Boil two pounds of lean beef and one pound of lean pork with four but- tons of garlic and two onions until the meat is tender. Remove from the liquid and grind when cold, adding six ground dried chili pods, one tablespoonful of chili powder, and salt to taste. Soak some corn husks in _hot water and dry them. Strain the $tock in which the meat was boiled and measure one quart. Add one cupful of cornmeal to this stock, cook for a few minutes, then spread the thin mush in a thin layer on the corn husks. Put a small roll of the ground meat in the center of a husk, roll up, then tie both ends and also the middle. Be sure to have plenty of husks. Steam for about two hours. This amount will make sixteen tamales and they will keep for a week or longer in the refrigerator. Serve with catsup and crackers. 2 HAW NASH “Conveniently Located on 1529 14th St. N.W.

A plum- ber and three auctioneers are candi- dates for shrouds and biers, knocked out by cars last night; is there no way, we ask, to curb these butcheries that so disturb the heart of every wight?” The pulpit and the bar and press de- plore the slaughter and distress, and call for drastic deeds; the cops must quiet their checker games, round up the car that kills and maims, and pinch the man who speeds. Then for a week or maybe three the cops are busy as can be, our safety they'll assure; the jurist, holding down his bench, declares that speeding is a stench to_ nostrils good and pure. He'll make the pun- ishment so great it will intimidate the skate with no respect for laws; he holds that speeding is a crime, the basest of our modern time, the worst that ever was.
