So the thought level and { the actual extent of possessions in these certain articles are common to the wealthy and the semi-wealthy. The ®:rson who wishes to have riches cannot afford to dwell on the meager side of iife. He or she must think in terms of riches, and get accustomed to the realization cf present abundance. This is a combination of making the most of what one has and being thank- ful, of counting one’s blessings and ap- preciating them.

As a matter of fact, Cochran’s ability |is such that extremes of parliamentary procedure are necessary to keep him from holding single-handed not one but dozens cof bridge bills simultaneously. The House has had to forego its one- time practice of dumping private bridge bills into an “omnibus” measure.

PIAR ¢ Ehold Motner Nature. Some distance from Prairie-dog Town lived a couple of Old Man Coyote's relatives, as crafty a pair of Coyotes as | éver hunted for a living. They were M¢t. and Mrs. Speedfoot, famous in all that region for their speed. All Coyotes are good runners, but ever since he had first started out to shift for himself Speedfoot had been able to outrun any of his tribe. When at last he had met and fallen in love with Mrs. Speedfoot ke found a mate almost as swift of foot “IT'S A LONG TIME SINCE WE HAVE VISITED PRAIRIE-DOG TOWN,” SAID SPEEDFOOT. as himself. And they were as crafty and sharp of wit as they were fleet of foot, so that though ‘they had often been hunted and efforts had been made to trap them, and even to poison them, they had been too clover to bz harmed. Early one morning Speedfoot and Mrs. Speedfoot started out for their dajly hunt. “It is a long time since ‘we have visited Prairie-dog Town,” said Speedfoot. “I have a feeling that ten- der young Prairie-dog would taste par- ticularly good today.” “I was thinking the same thing,” re- glled Mrs. Speedfoot. “Nothing could better. It is a long way over to the town, but a good dinner of Prairie-dog ‘would be worth the trip. There must be a lot of half-grown youngsters there now. What do you say if we go over there?” “Nothing would suit me better,” re- plied Spedfoot. So side by side they headed . for Prairfe-dog Town, running easily but swiftly. Once a Jack Rabbit leaped out from almost under their noses and bounced away in terror, hardly glanced at him. their minds on a Prairle-dog dinner and a Prairie-dog dinner they intended to have. So they kept straight on until at last they were near the town. They could hear the of the unsus- cting inhabitants, who were calling g:ck and forth to each other, and the sound made their mml'::hl wdneflri @ fow they stopped running and, tening themselves as close to the ground :"l sllbll.“ld crept through :lht: grass un ey could peep over a tle rise of ground w:rhok&‘ the town. 1t was & lively cene spread before them. were running back and houses making so- cial - calls. oum-.uz were out (‘}n the feeding grounds eating grass.

I'll do my part, and if you are as quick as you usually are, we ought to get least two of those Prairie-dogs. Half-grown ones are best. They are tender, while old ones are tough. Be- sides, it will be easier to catch the younger ‘ones. Let me know when you are ready.” “I'm ready now. There is no use in waiting,” replied Speedfoot. He flattened himself in the grass, but Mrs. Speedfoot did nothing of the kind. She got to her feet and began to move forward, as if trying to keep out of sight, just as she would have done had she actually been trying to steal upon Yap Yap. Almost as soon as she ap- peared over the rise of ground Yap Yap saw her. Instantly he whistled. It was a sharp whistle, the alarm signal. It was passed on from one watchman to another, and such a scrambling for safety as there was then! The young scampered into their houses. Those that were feeding ran to the nearest houses and dashed in, even though they were not in their own houses. In a jiffy not a Prairie-dog was to be seen save two or three old watchmen, and as Mrs. Speedfoot bounded forward these hurriedly dived for safety. Speedfoot grinned and ran swiftly after Mrs. Speedfoot. (Copyright, 1931 BY LOIS Coiffures With Ringlets. ‘The feminine touch in coiffures about which we hear so much is more evident at the back and sides than at the front. Most smart coiffures show wide shadow waves or finger waves in front, which give a far more natural and beautiful effect than the tight, narrow waves that were the vogue in the early days of permanent waving. The youthful coiffure is brushed back from the forehead. There may be a short part low at one side and a wave over each temple, joining in a large horseshoe effect over the crown of the head. There is just room for another wide wave around the head below the first one. Both waves are slightly on the bias. Both ears are exposed in the particular hairdress that I am describ- ing. The ends of hair are curled in ringlets that cluster across the back of the neck. In the front view they show behind the ears, thus relieving the fure and giving & background which is especially needed by the girl with rather wide jaws and heavy chin. 150 T e Docemm b the Youse sh1 es m} young. with a rather small head, slender neck and narrow chin.

It takes almost the entire member- ship of the House to roll him under. And_after each defeat he bobs up se- renely and starts over again. As he views it, he is making progress. His showing improves with each test. “And who knows,” he says, “maybe some day I'll muster enough votes to puncture that two-thirds majority.” Constant in his attendance in the House, he sits on the front seat and delivers his blows. He knows he will be defeated, but he gets a great kick out of getting on his feet and causti- cally remarking: “I know this bill will pass. Look, there's a bridge sponsored by Mr, Hawley of Oregon. There's an- other sponsored by Mr. Garner of Texas. With a Republican and Demo- cratic leader both having projects, the result is easily foretold.” LITTLE BENNY BY LEE PAPE.

Ends of hair arranged in soft curls harmonize better with the new picturesque note in hats than does a roll or knot of hair. Modish hats can no longer be de- nded upon to hide poorly groomed oiffures, at least on the left side, where the brim rises. This side-lift is an old idea, but is still as charming as ever, with its suggestion of the demure belle of a past century. The smart coiffure may conceal or reveal milady's ear on this important left side, but the hair must be arranged with real artistry. ‘The tiny caplike hats and berets that have become popular for school, sports and motoring are worn rather far back, so that only the hair on top of the head is covered. The ringlet | coiftures described above are very pretty with this style of hat for girls whose faces are not too wide. The coiffure for plump faces should cover the ears, and, of course, this treatment of hair is just as pretty with berets. JOLLY POLLY A Lesson in English. BY JOSEPH J. FRISCH.

Probably more s0, because for them marriage was the only career open to women and a husband was not only a necessary meal ticket and card of admission to soclety, but he supplied the only real pep and interest to life. For a woman to have admitted, however, that she desired to marry and have a home and children would have been considered indelicate. A woman might have the cosmic urge, but she kept it a deep, dark secret. NOT 80 in these frank times when women are not ashamed of being Jjuman beings and having natural human impulses and among these a desire for mates. In the course of a year I get hundreds of letters from women who honestly state that they want to marry and ask how they can go about getting & husband. Generally these women are in their early middle age, for a woman never abandons hope of Prince Charming’s riding by at any minute until after she has celebrated her thirtieth birthday. Most of them are intelli- gent and well educated and well placed in the world. Either through their own efforts or mrou&l. inheritance they are financially independent, but they crave to fulfill destiny for which they were created. They want their own homes. IN her. and I will have to OP course, it is nothing but an idiotic old convention, that is as much out of place in this day of female emancipation as an ox wagon would be on an automobile speedway, that prevents a woman who wants a hus- band from going out openly and aboveboard proposing to any man she fancies. And why women, who have broken down every other barrier that stood in the way of their happiness and prosperity, haven't smashed in the door that led to the altar is a mystery nobody can explain, Moreover, if women were free to do the courting, as men are, there would be not only a great many more marriages than there are, but there ‘would be a lot happler and more successful ones. For women are more astute in matters, of the affections than men are and they often know better the kind of wife a man needs than he knows himself. Wmnmnnnh!ohelbmdfimehmmtflmunhl prospect in sight, virtually her only chance of marrying consists in her seeking new flelds. ' In her home town her place as an old maid is fixed, Men never think of her as being in the running. They are so accustomed to her that they have ceased to see her, or to notice how good-looking and interesting and charming she is. They may admire her and respect her and consider her a paragon of her sex, but they never think of her as a lady love or & possible wife. If the woman goes into & new environment her status is changed. Nobody knows her age or is interested in it. Nobody pities her for not being married. They consider her highly eligible, especially if she has money. She provokes the interest that we all feel in strangers. She has the allure of novelty and, being away from those who know her and feel 1ree to criticize her, she has the courage to wear the daring clothes and use ;hc arts and wiles that she wouldn't have had the r;)eave to mpl:ilt ome.

Then came a platter holding cold sliced meat loaf, chilled tomatoes, ripe olives, lettuce and mayonnaise. = ker house rolls that had been splif t- tered and toasted came with this coutse. ‘Wedges of angel food cake and tall tumblers of iced coffee made their ap- pearance with the fresh red raspberry ice cream.

Did you ever start out from home and then suddenly wonder whether you bad locked the door? Or was it one of the gas burners on the kitchen range that bothered you? If you have had such foolish doubts you are an ordinary normal human being, careful of preserving what you possess.

However, there are psychologists who hold that some foolish doubts smack of abnormality. Of course, it all de- pends on_the frequency of their occur- rence.
