WOMAN’S PAGE. Mail Delivery for Small Coins BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. Every one at one time or another has fo send money by mail. When the sums are small it is sometimes puzzling to know the easiest way to send it—one that will be convenient to sender and recipient alike. When a sum is not of trifiing amount, | a , if one has a checking ac- cowrt #t some bank, is the natural way to forward money. If one has not 2P CORRECTLY INCLOSED, COINS OF SMALL DENOMINATION, AS ‘WELL AS STAMPS, CAN BE SENT SAFELY THROUGH THE MAILS. such an account, the other perfectly safe way is to send a post office money order. ‘There are times, however, when checks and moncy orders are out of The Sidewalks BY THORNTON FISHER. ‘This is the time of year when school~ mates vote for those whom they con- sider the handsomest boy in the class, the most studious student, the one most likely to succeed, the most popular. !.gM. writes to suggest that votes be cast for the following: ‘The one most likely to observe traffic “The girl least lik o puairy n 0pu- lent Romeo (and . ‘The who never during her four years at school exclaimed, “For crying out loud!” ‘The boy who_ boasted that he never kissed a girl in his life. * ok * ¥ How about votes for the following?

He has be- come a 100 per cent listener and a 50 per cent discounter. He knows that the law of compensation and averages is immutable; that he will receive pre- cisely what he deserves. He has d! covered that there are days when he and days when he gets the “brakes.” He has learned that 1 o'clock is too late to stay up; that most of the fun can be had before mid- night. He has discovered that to be told by “good fellows” that he is a y 1s & lot of applesauce and eathers. He has lost a lot of foolish {llusions about women—or should have. He knows that the world is not his onion, but is shared by a billion others and that in 100 years life will proportion to the significance of sums to be sent, as, for instance, when the amount is under 50 cents. It is well to remember that stamps are recognited as “legal tender,” and can be used in- stead of money, checks or money orders. This is because the Government will re- deem in money the fulk face value of stamps returned to a main post office, just as the Government will redeem paper money in gold or silver, which- ever is designated on the paper money. ‘When serding stamps thev are some- times _slipped under a strip of paper pasted at both ends to the letter paper There is no better way than this to send them. Sometimes the stamps are sent in one of the ases in which they can be bought from the post office. These cases are wee books of stamps with leaves of waxed paper separating sheets. All but the correct amount to be sent can be torn from the book and kept, Another way is to wrap the stamps in some bit of paper so thaf, they will not sli~ unnoticed from thc letfer when onened. The usual way however, is to inclose stamps loose. It is & mistake to stick the end of a stamp to a letter, and this method of securing safety is seldom used now, though it once was customary. Never send bills—that is, paper money —in letters. It is absolutely unsafe, The money is a total loss if the letter miscarries or if mail thieves so much as handle the sealed envelope. If they do, so trained have they become in de- tecting the “feel” of money that they can immediately pick out the letters in which bills are inclosed, and it is but | the matter of an instant to tear open; the ergelope and steal the money. Coins of small value, such as dimes and nic can be sent with safety if a round hole the size of the coin cut in a piece of cardboard the thici ness of the coin. It is wise to paste & | strip of paper over the money. putting | it on each side of the cardboard. This| keeps the coin in place securely. A rather clever way and one extremely casy is to push the coin down into & small piece of corrugated -aper. Even & quarter or half dollar can be sent thus without the “feel” of the money being detected. The weight of the half dellar, however, would make the letter suspiciously heavy, while the weight of the other coins would not. (Copyright, 1920.)

It seemed to Nancy that all her friends were either getting married or going abroad. Occaslonally she felt abused when she realized that she, globe-trotter of former days, had. been away from home only once since she had been married. But she had her nice Peter, their baby son, & new home in the offing. If Joan's mother had not been 1ll so that Nancy had to take her young_ niece, she knew that she might have been able to get away more fre- quently. But, after all, she would not give up one day of the past three years, had learned something from ing and from her contact with folks who went on trips. She knew that a short note of ann for the gift was in order just as soon as the oift had been received. It seemed to_be grow to walt to acknowledge gifts until the recipient saw the donor. In the meantime the donor wondered whether the gift had been received. She hated to ask, urally. Nancy made it a rule to ac- knowledge all gifts, even though she knew she would soon see the giver. She told Cynthia to be sure to write “Thank you" notes for all wedding ceived up to the day of Be“wedding before she left for her honeymoon. For one of her traveling friends Nancy prepared some cold cream cap- sules. She bought the capsules at the drug store and a tube of cold cream. She filled each capsule. It was an easy thing for a traveler to slip a capsule or two into her bag when she started out for the day. When she wanted a bit of freshening the cream was at hand in her bag. The capsule was then thrown away. ° Another welcome gift was a pillow which was also a nightgown carrier. By day she rested her head on the pillow and at night she unpacked the pillow and had her nightgown at han It was a compact arrangement. (Copyright, 1920.) Your Baby and Mine BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED. A reader writes: “Reading your column has helped me more than I can tell. My first baby was, oh, so spolled, and I wore myself out for her, and in return had nothing but a spolled, nervous child. The whole truth was I didn’t know enough to leave her alone. “Now my second baby is 5 months old. She is being reared in accordance with _your baby books distributed by the Government.

Now I tell her a pretty fairy story at bedtime and she goes to bed with happy thoughts.” Answer—Your experience is weorth something, because you have tried both ways and discovered for yourself that regularity and schedules pay. The mothers who say with scorn, “There is nothing to this larity,” are without exception the mothers who have never tried to train a child to a regular sched- ule and, therefore, have no way of comparing haphazard ' methods and scientific ones. It often happens t they convince young mothers with gl:w bables that modern ways are useless, and so start them off all wrong. ‘The baby can have a sun bath daily as soon as the weather is definitely settled.

That Made Us Misfits. T!m most curious thing in the world is the casual way in which we make the two momentous decisions of our lives. Our prosperity and our happiness depend first upon our choice of an occupation, and then upon our selection of our husband or wife, yet we give to these two vital matters practically no serious thought and consideration. We lay them on the lap of Lady Luck and let her settle our fate. We are the puppets of chance when we most need to be the We know well enough that the successful men and women are those who follow some trade or profession for which they have an aptitude, and who do work in which they find such perpetual joy and interest that they never count And we know that most of the men and women who are failures are just the misfits, the round pegs in the square holes, those who are trying to do something that Nature never intended them to do and who find their work so distasteful that they hate it and slight it, and always turn out a bungling job for which no one is ever willing to pay good money. ‘We all know starving lawyers and doctors who would have made fortunes as business men, and we know bankrupt business men who would have become We know poor carpenters who would have made good preachers and poor preachers who would have made good carpenters. We know women who have cooked for 30 years without ever having learned how to make a loaf of bread that wasn't first-aid to the coroner, but who would have made crackerjack office women.

We make excuses to justify our con- duct in our own eyes and in the eyes of others. It is 3 means of satisfying our consclence. Sometimes making ex- cuses serves the purpose of putting us in the proper frame of mind to do what we want to do. ‘We also make excuses to shift the blame on our act, to make it appear as though the other person were the ressor. None of us wants the repu- tation of hitting first. Nevertheless we want the advantage that comes trom getting the jump on the other fellow. ‘This principle is vividly expressed in one of Aesop's fables. It runs like this: A hungry wolf one day saw a lamb drinking at a stream, and wished some plausible excuse for making him his prey. “What do you mean by muddying the water I am golag to drink?” fiercely said he to the lamb. “Pray forgive me,” meekly answered flza lamb. *“I should be sorry to dis- pl you in any way, but as the stream runs from you toward me, you will see that ¥ can't possibly muddy it for you” “That's all' very well,” sald the wolf. “But you spoke ill of me behind my back a year ago.” “Nay, belleve me,” replied the lamb, “I was not then born.” “It must have been your brother, then,” growled the wolf. “It cannot have been, for I never hed any,” answered the lamb. “I know it was one of your lot,” re- joined the wolf, “so make no more such idle excuses.” He then seized the lamb, carried him DAILY DIET RECIPE POTATOES JULEP.

He doesn't find out before he asks a girl to marry him whether she is strong and healthy, whether she has good wearing qualities, whether she is easy to handle, whether she is the kind of a wife he needs, whether she will be a help, or prove a rank extravagance that will ruin him. Probably not one man in a thousand ever deliberately picks out his wife. ‘He just marries the girl he does because she is pretty and cute and has a good line, or because he worked ncxt to her at a desk, or boarded with her mother, or because she happened to be around some day when he was lonesome or sentimental or had a bad cold and wanted somebody to mother him.

BY THE COUNSELLOR. Holding a five-year lease on a busi- ness property, the Burns Clothing Com- pany filed a voluntary petition in bank- ruptcy. The agreed rental of the build- ing was $12,000 a year and one year of the term had expired. After the adjudication of bankruptcy of the clothing company, John Wallace, owner of the building, relet the property for the balance of the term at $3,000 a year less rent. Then he filed a claim for $12,000 against the bankrupt estate for breach of the contract of the leases for the remaining four years. The trustee in bankruptcy refused to recognize the claim, asserting that it was a contingent claim and that such claims are barred by the bankruptcy act from participating in the dividends. Wallace n filed suit in the District Court to get a ruling on the question. ‘The court held that Wallace’s claim ‘was not allowable, stating: “Rent aceruing after the filing of a petition in bankruptcy against a lessee is not provable against his bankrupt estate, since a covenant to pay rent creates no debt until the time stipu- lated for the payment arrives. Under the bankruptcy act the provability of a debt is to be determined as of the date of the filing of the petition.” MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN. Birthday Presents.
