. tttjlASGINATED by lha "daylight-saving"

fid England, many people are wondering
trhy wo In tho United Btntos don't pass a

.So mo people never get beyond "won
,fWhtft" BUt while they are Indulging In
fetfe Uriprorttabto pastime', awaiting some
, phvb on the part of. the Government to
', werce them into doing something they
. Iwve, never had thft "gumption" to do of
j their own' volition, others have come to
a. realization that life, like Frohman's
'definition of death, la "a beautiful adven-
I tiiro," to bo lived and enjoyed to Its fullest
V,extont and not to be Blept away. They
do not need to havo their clocks set for
i ward by law. They are always ahead of
', time.
No habit la so Insidious as tolling In
! bed, nor, It might bo added, is thero one
' ,koro. enjoyable, except It be that of rising
early. If this morning you sleep Until
; 8 o'clock, tomorrow you will havo diffi
culty In getting up at quarter after. Each
(Jay your mad rush to get to the day's
.trork becomes moro feverish.
Of course, It Is beautiful to He gazing
,, at the celling and dream of alt tho ar
resting feats you could and might per
' form: of all tho thrilling places you
. might travel to; of all the clover remarks
you might make. But the only reason
dreams are In good standing, In fact tho
, only reason for their being countenanced
at alt, is because they nre the Inspira
tions, that lead toachlevcments.
A dream without some action to crys
tallize It Into n tangible, concrete thing
, la like "faith without works" dead. You
" may llo abed and dream nil you like of
. . .roaming to Persia and the far Indies, but
"tho' man who .is actually going to get
' there Is he who, having dreamed his lit
tle dream In some ' "oft" moment, goes
forth marly to mako it como true.
Alnny people, who need ohly seven hpurs
sleep take eight and nine. Others, prod
igal with time, becauso It secmlngty costs
them nothing, take ten. Tho man or
woman who finds out just how little sleep
U needed and takes not flv.e minutes more
than that Is tho man or wOman who to
going to got things done. "When Edison
discovered tint ho could do with four
hours ho stopped taking eight.
Fev) can do with only four hours' sleep.
It would bo foolish for them to try to,
but many thero nro to whom seven or
eight hours are ample. Anything over
this amount Instead of being refreshing
and energizing stultifies tho brain and
enervates tho body.
Tho persop who rises early, like him who
takes cold baths. Is often apt to regard
himself as superior to his fellow-man, and
to mako tho Ufo of those with whom ho

this being who is nbroad whllo others He

his own fault. Let us say that ho gains
two hours a day, that he gets up at 6
Instead of nt 8. In a year ho has a hnndt
cap of 730 hours. Now, If eight hours
constitute a full working day, this mnn
by merely rising two hours earlier than
his accustomed wont has gnlncd moro

This Is too serious a matter for outside
Interference. Let your heart, plus some
head, work, of course, dictate your course of
action. If you think that you love two men
equally well, it is quite possible that you
love neither of then! deeply enough to
justify marriage. I bell'evo love to be very
exclusive, and it you were really afnlcted
with the genuine disease, I don't think there
would be room in your thoughts for the
serious consideration of more than one man.
Bide a while. Don't dismiss cither of
them. Tell them exactly how you feel to
ward them, and I am sure that In time you
will be rewarded with a sign, If not from
Heaven, at least from your Inner conscious
ness, that will help you solve your problem.

Ydur first query la respectfully referred
to our chemists and those 'Interested In the
manufacture of the records. In 1790 there
were slaves In, every State In the Union,

; By the process of gradual emancipation

Eastern States, but In 1840 there were still

"Please let me know the proper way to
announce my marriage. . I am an orphan
and about to be married nt my sister's
home. As she Is married, Is It correct to
announce 'Mr. and .Mrs announce the
marriage of their Bister'7 Or only 'Mrs.
announces the marriage,' etc.?
"P. E. M."
The first form you suggested is alto
gether correct and conventional. Your Bis
ter is your nearest relative, and your
brother-in-law your host. It Is eminently
proper that they should be you guardians
and announce the marriage. The Corner
offers congratulations and best wishes for
you In your new life.
"One of my girl friends whether I am
talking to her over the telephone, or In
an ordinary conversation when we meet
has a habit ot Interrupting me every few
seconds with uh-huh! uh-huhl' Many
other girls have this habit, but she Is worse
thn.n anybody else I know. Is there any
way of breaking her of It without offending
her? MABEL."
You are confronted by a perplexing ques.
tlon. Should you allow your friend to
become confirmed In a habit that will make
her ridiculous In the eyes of acquaintances
or correct it In time? Unless she be sweet
tempered she Is likely to resent your
criticism even If It be tactfully given. I
have had personal experience with the same
puzzle and Incline to the opinion that It Is
a common fad with the girl ot the period.
Cannot you laugh your friend into a per
ception of the absurdity of the continual
"grunt" of acquiescence? Ask her If she
has any Idea how many -times she has
agreed to what you have been saying to
her and tell her you have kept account of
the repetition. Set your wits to work now
to bring about a reformation without pain
ing or displeasing her. All she heeds la
to be made aware ot the trick. This done.
It will cure Itself.

The first touch of summer makes the
whole feminine world kin, for It awakens
every woman to the fact that the time for
considering the summer wardrobe, is at hand.
And speaking of summer, Is thero anything
quite so depressing as the summer wardrobe
of a season ago? The crumpled, faded dress
es, tho narrow, tlght-wnlsted skirts, fitted
closely to the hips and sadly minus buttons 1
The faded glory of a discarded frock be
comes doubly pathetic If It has to do service
for another season.
Given a few deft touches, there Is hope
for the most forlorn finery. The narrow
skirt of yesteryeni' which even last sea
son wasn't a hobble, by any- means must
be let out on the seams and taken up at the
hem .until It reaches the fashlonablo five
Inches from the ground. If It hns ball but
tons, flat pearl ones should be substituted.
A good laundering and the result will sur
prise you.
Discarded frocks may be refurbished with
a dainty white net yoko and collar, or one
of the fashionable fichus that cover such a
multitude of sartorial defects. A wide
moire girdle of some harmonizing or con
trasting shade will also do its bit. A soft
j!oke. a Jabot and collar, or n crepe do chine,
tie will Improvo a bedraggled-looking
blouse. Try It before you discard.

to me. HOUSEWIFE.
Did you over try gum arable on dark
summer fabrics? This doesn't show on tho
material In any way If you use it according
to directions. To starch one dress, use a
teaspoonful of the arable; dissolve It In a
little bit of warm water. Add enough water
to wet the dress. This makes the garment
crisp and has the same appearance as
starch. Iron as usual.

I get? I3EAC1I HAVEN.
Rely upon the stylo of your suit, rather
than upon nny startling color combination
for effectiveness. Introduce tho whtto noto
If you like It In your sandals and stockings
and cap. A whlto rubberized satin cap
with a knot of blue rubber flowers, with
whlto bathing shoes laced half way up the
leg, would look well.
Since you are not thin, a princess model,
not the old tightly fitted princess, how
over, but ono built on graceful, loose lines,
will suit you admirably. If your flguro
cannot stand an unbroken line, gird your
self with a soft sash of tho same material.

Dear Madam I want to make a light sum

thing very dainty, preferably white, although
there la no reason why she couldn't wear colors,
for the gown Is not for any special occasion.
Your suggestion would bo a help to me.
MOTHEH.
Why not select some of the plnk-and-blue
flowered effects, worked on sheer white ba
tiste, for your daughter's frock? These
are decidedly charming. A double-flounced
skirt, fichu or surplus blouse and detach
able ribbon girdle would be pretty, although
you can get other distinctive patterns for
a dress of this sort. I saw a fascinating
ribbon for n girdle It was about 5 Inches
wide, and had lengthwise stripes of the
loveliest paBtet shades in moire on It. Such
a belt could be made to wear with any
light frock; the combined shades would
harmonize with all colors.

"TTlOn ten years." writes a business man,
JD "I have been a victim of gastrointes
tinal neurasthenia. I have consulted many
specialists and visited various sanitariums
and health resorts, taken all sorts of non
medical treatment as well, without per
manent benefit. Some months I feel a little
better, but I soon relapse, I have to neg
lect my store a good share of the time.
"My diet seems to be the cause of the
trouble. Acids, sweets, meats and certain
starches and fats seem to disagree with
me. Eggs disagree, and milk usually does,
too. Test meals have proved that It takes
from 10 to 12 hours for food to leave my
stomach. There was an excess of hydro
chloric acid found present, The stomach
was dilated two inches below normal level.
"I take little exercise. I ache all over
and feej tired and exhausted, sleep poorly,
and am constipated except when I take a
cascara liquid. My diet Is, chiefly, toasted
bread and butter, whlto of egg poached
lightly, shredded wheat, grape nuts, a few
prunes and accaslonally butter beans. I
eat two meals a day.
"Helng a druggist, I don't monkey with
medicine, except occasionally a dose of
essence of pepsin after meals.
"Now, for the love of heaven, can you
advise me what to do next?"
Assuming that the unfortunate man has
had a reasonably careful examination to
exclude organic disease, and that the term
"gastro-lntestlnal neurasthenia" Is Just the

Tho man feels sorry for himself. Ho dis
trusts that perfectly normal stomnch of his
distrusts It so hard that It refuses to work.
Professor Canno, of Harvard Medical
School, has demonstrated experimentally
and practically the fact that fear, worry,
rage and other unpleasant emotions will
absolutely stop all digestive processes In
the healthiest Individual. Think what hap
pens to this fellow when he sets that much
worried mind of his at worrying about the
digestion of his grape nuts and other pap!
Why. his diet Is enough to make him Blck
a-bed! It Is a fit ration for a brown leg

of psychological manhandling. He has
mollycoddled himself Into a state of chronic

pepsin nfter meals" tells the tale an ab

Note particularly that every type of nutri

Note that he believes his diet Is the cause of

such pap diet! The pap may be a factor,

How would you llko the Job of translat

Italy Into music? How would you go about
teaching her swarthy son nnd daughters
In the great melting pot the rudlmenU of
muslcnl form, harmony and melody?
Would you be willing, If you taught In tile

tomod to cultured surroundings, had sUn

tho grubby, fingers of Philadelphia's "great
unwashed" Into the Intricacies of do, re
ml?
This Is what Miss Emily McCalllp, teach
er of eurhythmlo classes at Bryn Mawr Col
lego arid tho WIssahlckon School, does dally.
Sho gives her time to theeo youngsters of
the ghetto Irish, Germans, Italians, Rus
sian Jews, Poles, Scotch and English and
Just plain South street, In precisely the same
way sho gives It to her wealthy pupils. For
to Miss McCalllp thero's n fascination about
acting ns tho sponsor of theso children
which cannot bo equated by nny other ex
perience. And tho children at tho Settle
ment School, 427 Christian street, repay her
amply by their enthusiasm and progress. '
."I love to teach music to these children,"
Miss McCalllp said. "But first of all their
Interest must be stimulated, They come to
us witn n sliyness nnu distrust most pa
thetic. They don't know what tho teacher
Is going to do for them. First, the physical
side has to be looked nfter. They learn
games and havo otory-tclllng classes, and
sewlnc and walking clubs, and In this way
their confidence Is gained.
"I havo classes In music nnd rhythmlo
dancing. Tho Idea Is to teach tho children
to put melodies to words nnd words to
simple melodies. They work hard, but their
progress Is often hampered by the work
they do In the daytlmo nnd their racial
limitations.
"A study of tho Influenco of the various
nationalities on tholr artistic sensibilities Is
very remarkable" continued Miss McCalllp.
"Tho Russian Jows, for instance, will play
their Instrument, whether It Is violin, man
dolin or piano, with a flro ond Intensity of
expression thnt fairly does away with tech
nique. Tho Irish, English nnd Scotch na
tions are more stolid. They may bo export
In technique but they lack the power of In
terpretation. Tho Poles aro docile, and
many of them show talent. ,
"Ignorance at home is ono of tho chlof
obstacles that the teacher has to combat
The parents of these children are laborers ;
they havo no appreciation of muslo them
selves, and thoy make criticisms of the
work as wo do It that are harmful to the
children themselves. I have often seen
practlco-books with a scrawl on tho outside
announcing that the parent didn't like these
pieces, and tho child should not play them."
Teaching In tho schools where wealthy
and cultured girls nro pupils and then trans
ferring her efforts to the children of tho
congested district has shown Miss McCalllp
many phases of modern education. Ono
morning she Instructs at Bryn Mawr, tho
same afternoon finds her at tho Settlement
School, 427 Christian street,
"Wealthy girls aro often Inclined to feel
