WHEN TO
FORGET
By Ellen Adair
of a Grievance
is overshadowing your whole life at this
very moment,
Try to trace the troublesome thing back
to Its source and you will be wonder
struck to realise that such a mighty and
finely rooted grievance has sprung from
such an Inllnlteslmally small trouble.
Grievances aro to our lives Just what
ugly, destroying wccdR are to gardens.
They work endless havoc, and If we don't
eradicate them In time, their work wilt
be Irretrievable and devastating.
We fondly Imagine that ono small weed
does not matter at all. Uut that Is Just
our mlstnke. Before we can look round,
that small weed has becomo fast rooted
and grown apace, so that Its off-shoots
overrun the whole garden, usurping spaco
which should bo occupied by moro
beautiful and popular plants. And It Is
Just tho same with grievances.
Some little thing hurts us, some thing
of omission or commission, some trivial
word or act on tne part of a relative
or friend mayb, some neglect or slight
ing treatment.
Possibly at tho moment of Its occur
rence we are conscious of a passing hurt,
but otherwise think llttlo about It. Dut
afterwards Ahl When wo have tlmo
for thinking, wo recall tho thoughtless
words or trilling neglect, and brood over
it until It is magnified to Incrcdlblo pro
portions. Then very shortly wo lose all sense of
proper perspective, and our whole world
gets out of focus. Instead of dominating
our grievance, wo allow It to dominate
us than which there never was or is a
greater mistake. Instead of looking It
full In the face, and convincing ourselvos
of our own folly, we weakly allow It to
rulo our lives and actions, to the misery
of ourselves and others.
The wlso woman will cultivate a spirit
of optimism which soars beyond the
minor slights and grievances of life. And
In so doing she will solvo tho problem
of happiness.
Mistake
Then tho next tlmo wo met she did not
even speak."
"Are you sure she received It?"
"Yes; I sent it by your brother, and he
put It into her own hand. Ho did not
wait for an answer sho could have sent
that any way. Well, then I went away
a few weeks I could not stand it here,
and now that I am back it is worse than
ever. I desoise myself for caring, but I
hate Norman Cady for being near her.
I thought if I told you perhaps Just put
ting it Into words would wear off some of
my anger and help mo forget her. Elsie,
bo good to me, and help me forget her.
Will you?"
"You should go to her and have It out
In words. There may be some mistake."
There Is no mistake. Sho was simply
playing with mo. Elsie, you were always
my comrade bo so now In time of need."
Elsie lauRhed, but It hurt her a little.
"Very well. John; come to me whenever
you want to; wo will talk and walk and
you shall try to forget. I will not fall
you."
March was gone and April had had her
last day of grace. It was the evening
before May day. Elsie, happy hearted,
was waiting on tho porch in the twi
light. John was to come. Now ho nearly
always came. They were going for an
other wnlk In the spring twilight to wan
der across the green hills and back along
the roadways In the whlto moonlight.
Elsie thought only of tho moment, but
she could not help n little throb of glad
ness that he so seldom spoke of Rose.
She did not, as at first, regret tho cool
ness that had sprung up between her and
Rote. Nothing seemed to matter but be
ing happy without thinking why. John
called her "sister" hnlf Jokingly, but with
entire affection, and while he sometimes
wandered off Inconsolatcly by himself ho
seemed content to be with her. And so
she waited. As she waited her 15-year-old
brother called dlstressedly from his
room.
"Sis! For goodness' sake get my good
coat from the closet in the hall! I'm
goln to be late to that party." Elsie
went to the dark closet and emerged
with a coat. She knocked nt his door.
"Oh. come on In and help me with this
fool tie! Great snakes! If you haven't
got the wrong coat! Just like a girl!
Haven't worn that old thing slnco win
ter!" He snatched It from her Impa
tiently, upside down. A letter fell from
the pocket.
Elsie picked it up and as she glanced
at the address her face went white.
"Terry! what Is this?"
At tho sound of her voice he turned to
look, and then stood stricken with tardy
penitence. It was addressed to John
Copeland, and in the lower left corner
was inscribed in Rose's hand, "Kindness
of Terry." Terry stared and struggled
with tho refractory tie.
"A pretty mess! Rose gave me that
months ago, and I promised to take It
straight to John. And like a fool I for
got!" Then he cheered up. "Well, they're
off anyway now. Probably she'll be glad
he never saw It. I will take It back to
her tomorrow." He wondered at the
strange brightness of his sister's eyes,
at the extreme whiteness of her face,
"Gee! Not even Rose can touch you
for looks, Slsl I don't wonder that
John" She turned from him as John's
whistle sounded below. She still held
the letter.
"I Bhall give It to John. It is his, I
shall tell Mm you forgot. I "
Then she went down to John.
He sat contentedly on the porch with
his hat pushed back on his fair head.
Ha looked pareless and happy enough.
At her approach he rose.
"Readyfslater?" Her smile was odd

to the needs of tho average girl who Is
used to dressing smartly and having a
wardrobe fitted to tho social demands
made on her, ounds like an Impossible
achievement except on paper. But a Phil
adelphia girl who will be married this
month allowed herself only this much
nnd has come out J4 to "the good."
Furthermore, her wedding outfit Is as

Miss Estelle London, of South 17th
street, put J200 Into her inner pocketbook
when sho went forth on that most Joyous
of all missions trousseau shopping. Sho
got what she felt It was necessary for
her to have and spent only 3196.
"When I began to plan my outfit," she
said the other day, "I couldn't seo my
way clear under $500. But I didn't have
the $500. I had only $250. I "was deter
mined to have at least $50 worth of house

any rich relatives to look after this detail
for us, he will havo to provldo all tho
furnishings. I thought the least I could
do would be to get the sheets, towels and

"Getting these for $50 was more diffi
cult than buying the trousseau, I after
ward found, but I bought only In half
dozens, hoping that later on we could
supplement and have a dozen of every
thing. I decided that as long as I could
not afford expensive linen sheets and
pillow cases, it would be better to have
them of very good cotton. In this way
I kept my linens down to the $50 limit,
"I was determined to have a church

the typical whlto satin of conventional
wedding style would havo been of virtu

the affairs that wo are Invited to nre not
formal enough to demand such an elabo

"I found It moro economical, also, to

Miss London's Itemized list shows a

IT HARDLY seems possible, but the

as lean nnd poor on a church mouse!
Why, don't you eat nnythlng?"
"Eat anything!" exclaimed poor Tommy
Tlttle-mouso heart-brokenly; "that's
what I would llko to dol I'm ao hungry
I can hardly see! And thero lBn't a thing
to cat in tho whole cellnrl"
"Then why do you stay down there,
silly?" nsked tho attlo mouse disgustedly,
"I wouldn't Btay a minute!" (Which was
perfectly truo.)
"Oh, thank you," answered Tommy
Tlttle-mouso loyally, "the cellar is t,
nice safo place to Uvo and I am per
fectly satisfied, only "
"Only you're starving to death," snorted
tho attic mouse. "Catch me starving my
self Just to bo safe! You'ro such a silly!"
Tommy Tlttle-Mouso hung his head and
looked very nshamed. Then a bright
thought occurred to him. Why not ask
his cousin whero would be a good place
to live? Why hadn't ho dono that before?
Of course, his clover cousin knew many
places bosldes the attic, whero Tommy
Tlttle-mouso was so afraid of living. So,
quickly, beforo his courage oozed away,
Tommy Tlttle-mouso said: Then If you
wouldn't llvo there, whero would you
live? Tell mo thnt."
Tho attlo mouse scratched his head and
twisted his tall three times; then he said
thoughtfully: "I think, considering every
thing, I'd live In tho garden if I were
you."
"In tho garden!" exclaimed tho amazed
Tommy; "I'd llko that! And If you say
It's safe I'll go this very day!"
