Long since she discovcred that a day well begun was almost always a day well finished, and she has a per- fect right to expect her guests to assist in this matter Don’t, whatever else you do, think it is vour bounden duty to stop all proceedings and get out and walk every time you come to a grade. It is a positive insult, and is always considered as such by the driver, and no matter how skillfully may manage it, never faiis to be a sharp end prickly thorn that takes time to heal. No man, or woman either, likes to be thought incompetent, and if there is one thing on the face of the green globe that people pride themselves in, it is in being a crack whip. Wherever you may chance to go you'll be pretty sure to find a Miss Her and a close-by Mr. Him badly smitten with 2 malignant case of puppy love. If there's the least ghost of a show they make a grand rush for the back seat and they try to appear perfectly uncon- cerned. Generally they succeed most ad- mirably in belng an excellent sample of foolishness. Of course there really isn't ny good and sufficient reason for those the front seats making themselves un- comfortable by twisting and breaking their necks to look around, and anyhow it is the most natural thing in the world to look straight ahead. 8o it comes to pass that a considerable amount of spoon- ing is carried on right under the chap- eron's very nose. As soon as the destination is reached and there is the weest, smallest loophole of escape, off they go by themselves and sit and make sheep's eves at each other until lunch is served and even then they manage to keep exclusively apart. Don’t be that girl. It's ‘woefully silly and isn't even decently polite to your hostess and her friends. Besides the re- ward is not alluring. All slighting, re- marks, made evenin jest, are duly reg- istered against a girl's fair name and the first thing she knows she will have a string of deeds to account for longer than Coach and Poor _Srom e Ot Lawrernce. ( jof; Stalle her father's good right arm and all charged to the account of foolishness, too. The shirk is a perfect abomination and a very short-sighted one at that. If she could see to the end of her nose it would take her comparatively little time to find out that the saying about “a cheerful glver” lsn't as much a joke as it might be and that a little time and labor are often a wise investment, paying a high rate of interest. It is such a small thing to see that water is needed and cheerfully volun- teer to get it before some one is asked. Every man is always willing and ready to help, but he hasn’t the same knack of seeing and doing little things that a wo- man has and you will find out that it is the little things of life that really count. ‘What if it is several blocks distant, and you are on the ragged edge of starva- tion. Water there must be, and the sooner it is over the fire the sooner you will get your coffee and what goes with it, so you see it really is the shortest way out of it in the long run. v No hostess expects her guests to do anything that could e called work, but there is often more to be done than one pair of hands can do and do well, and a little timely assistance will win her ever- lasting gratitude. She agrees most heart- you leave undone.” In plain words you ily with the woman who sald: “It isn't may give her no cause for annoyance, the things you do, dear, it's the things yet on the other hand give her mo par- ticular reason for being well pleased with you. Those who are afflicted with the need of an appetizer in the nature of a stroll before lunch and who invariably- develop & severe case of indigestion afterward are little short of pests, and the best way to cure them permanently is to accident- ally on purpose forget them once or twice and then sit back and quietly watch the miracle - that is almost certain to be wrought. It's better than all the patent medicines in the land and even the powers o vour of new thought go way back and sit down, for it is warranted to cure while you walt. Coaches, while they are tremendously smart to look upon, are the most awk- ward things in the world to get in and out of. Now it may be all very fit and fine to have a code in independence and to be able to take care of yourself, but it isn't open and above board of you to catch your heel and get a nasty tumble. For a mere whim or a stubborn notion you may succeed splendidly in rulning the entire day's pleasure, as well as running the chance of mutilating your own beauty. Of all trying girls the one who is etern- ally and forever afraid of all things takes the bun. Ehe doesn't enjoy the ride her- self and In her utter selfishness won't al- low cny one else to. If a horse shies a fraction of an inch she is beside herself with fear and clutches frantically at every ons within her reach, and when it comes to passing & team on a grade she s absolutely too Impossible for words. Bhe beg piteously to get out and then makes herself the laughing stock of the party by clambering up the hillside at full speed. If you are such a girl, you are to be pitied above all things, but do for heav- en's sake §jtay at home and conceal your affliction or fight against it with the full power of your will and overcome it. For however unkind it may sound, your friends consider your terror in the light of silly nonsense, and sooner or later will regard you as a tiresome, hopeless bors. ..* It's but human nature to pass over the wfflictions of others lightly, and even con- temptuously, but when the same thing is brought home in full force it is a esong to quite another tune. And, besides, it isn't fashionable to have nerves nowadays. The girl who apparent- ly 1s made of fron, who can be turned out head over heels and not so much as whimper, is the one who comes In first at the post with flying colors. She's a “mighty good fellow, almost as good as & man,” and there isn't a day of the week that does not find her besieged with in- vitations for this, that and the other thing. There is another girl who makes an en- wiable name for herself, and she is the philosophical one, Who takes life exantly as she finds it. Trouble never troubles her for the simple reason that she makes It a rule to be out when it calls. What would drive some girls to the ragged edge of despair fails to ruffie her in the least, for she argues ‘‘what's the use?” ‘And, after all, what is the use? If a ple lands fairly and squarely in the mi- dle of your brand new skirt, it doesn't do the least particle of good to tgar your hair and call on the gods for revenge. The ple is there, and the only sensible BEST TORKEEP THINGS IHOVING thing is get it out of sight and out of mind at the same time. Even if the p fs bitter, It is far better to swallow it gracefully and insist on making others forget your vexations, for they always grieve those whom they do not annoy. There is just one oth t that the coaching girl should take p to avold, and that is not to waiting. Such a fault is bad any time, and will have to acco more than one ruined temper, bu almost beyond the pale of forgiveness when restless horses are a part of the paraphernalia.
