I wan not surprised
when the mother said

Plness Is a mental habit. The wealthy and
famous may strive for It and never taste
ot JiS -'J"'"- hll tn- most lowly of
earths children may enjoy It to Its fullest
when you learn the secret of content
ment you will be happy, and once having
made happiness your own, no one can steal
It from you for all time. Sorrows may
coma and rob you of happiness for a while,
but, like "hope crushed to earth," It will
rise again.
nEALLY WOItKS WONDEH3
The happiness lotion, a mixture of health,
clear conscience and contentment. Is the
best faco preparation In the world. It will
transform the homeliest of faces and paint
the drab corners of this old world In gay
colors.
But, having discovered the excellent prop
erties of the happlnes lotion. If you con
tlnuo to keep the formula for your own use
exclusively, selfishness will steal In and
counteract Its good effects, llcmember al
ways that "happiness was born a twin."
Make some one else happy every day of
your life. You will not find this a dlfllcult
task. It takes very little to bring hap
piness to most persons. A kindly act, a dis
play ot thoughtfulness or sympathetic) un
derstanding on your part may make an
other's burden seem less heavy.
Ho happy In your work, whatever It Is.
Not all of us can bo among tho faored
fow destined1 to bo reared In the lap ot
luxury, and I am willing to wager that
olghty per cent ot tho workors would not
exchange) places with the drones. Some
ery knowing person has written. "Get your
happiness out of your work or you will
net or know what real happiness is."
Cultlvnto tho hahlt of being happy. If for
no other reason than to Increase your stock
of beauty.

DIARY OF A WELL-DRESSED GIRL
A Distinctive Coat for Winter Weather
r TT IS better to bo born lucky than rich,"
I 1 quoted Ann-Lee after Aunt ICatheryn
?Wt the room. "Here I've been trying to
Iwrtill exDensea so that I curt buy a fur
ftest, while you, who havoneor even wished
2jer one, are maao a present 01 a gorgeous
Pcett worth twice aa much as I had Intended
I to Invest In one."
i, I had fully expected to wear my last
5 jt-r1 coat for another season and brought
it down from tho cedar closet. Aunt ICath
eryn came In just as I was examining the
vrn places to seo how much new fur I
, voald have to havo auueu.
' -I hope that you art) not going to spend
f whole lot ot money In having that coat
lltBOdeled." was my worthy aunt's greeting.
"No, I count upon rponuincj ery little,"
a the reply. "Mother htiB given me the
j, caracul bands that trimmed her broadcloth
R, so that the furrier will have to supirfy
, wry littlo If any rur."
Immediately sho proceeded to find a great
vera spot In the back ot tho coat.
"I am going with you to tho furrier's,"
' unounced Aunt ICatheryn. "I never did
s he your coat, Robin, and your Uncle Jack
' hu done very well with his stocks, lately.
' Well see what a now coat will cost."
v Ann-Lee went with us and tried on some
i tl the models, while I paraded about In
ttktr-
; Ann-Lee waxed enthualastlo over a Bus-
tfkn coat of broadtail trimmed with whlto
' fr. It was a great, roomy, cover-all coat
! with a high collar of fox and very wide
LeMrt The fullness was confined at the
fcwtot line by a belt ot the short-haired
; peltry, A wide band of iox trimmed the
bettora of the skirt and formed tho cuffs.
Ta buttons were of broadtail and the lining
f, violet brocaded satin. We laughed to seo
lAsn-Lee, even with her extravagant Ideas,
rop the coat like a hot cake when she
Eteud the price.
f I Uked a coal of moteskln trimmed with
fcbtaok fox- but Aunt Katheryn pronounced
BR "entirely too old looking." It was
aaaaUy good looking, though. The
riMlee portion ntted snugly, buttoning high
Ivaeer the chin In military fashion. The
ghuMd-down collar was of fox, as were tho
I'kmd muff cuffs and the band about tho
? etrctttar skirt. Tho latter formed deep folds
:' about the hem and completely covered the
SfrecV beneath.
Aunt Katheryn nnaiiy decided that a
Smart coat of sealskin and skunk.
coat of sealskin trimmed with skunk was
moro becoming to me than any other. The
upper portion Is semlflttcd and Is cut with
a waist line a trltlo below normal. It has a
broad collar of tho shaggy fur which I can
button snugly about my throat or turn back
over tho shoulders. I particularly like the
sleeves, which have bell-shaped cuffs of
skunk, trimmed with sealskin buttons.
The skirt of the coat flares wldo at Uie
hem and Is bordered with a wide band ot
skunk. I had the lining of a whlto brocaded
satin changed to one of pompadour silk
with clusters of flowers scattered over a
gray-blue background.
Aunt Katheryn Is thoroughly satisfied
with this coat and I agree with, Ann-Lee
that I am a cry lucky girl to hao had It
given to me.
I Just had a notice from the custom house
that Dad's box has arrived. I'll go down
and get It this afternoon.

One of the amusing rumors In Flicker

THE PHONOGRAPH MEN DO IT
Geisha Girls, Tragedians and Comedians Mako Records,
and the Whole Country Is Disc Crazy,
Says an American Traveler
Dy the Phonograph Editor
While the editor waa readlnic the new
llt of Columbia records and wonderlrnc at
the comparative profusion of forelxn offer
ing and their diversity, b Gentleman Who
Haa 11 pen Kverywhcre came Into the room.
Itelnit what lome call a perlpatetlo cosmo
polite (which, tranalated Into antl-hlghbrow.
Is a tempestuous tourlatX he was Interested.
Right away he brsan to tell us some things
about phonography abroad that we'd never
heard of.
"If you want to realise, vividly, the enor
mous spread of the art, or Industry, of
sound-reproduction," he commenced, "you
ought to ro to Japan. The Japanese aro
quite mad on the subject, and the country
simply blossoms with talking machines. I
didn't hear of any native manufactories
of phonographs, but the American kind aro
all over the place. The Japs adore records
all kinds slngln7 talking, comic
"Whllo I was there I learned that the
Victor Company was In the habit of send
ing over Its representatives to get record
Inge of all kinds of Important Japanese
artists, tho Geisha girls and the well-known
mate comedians and tragedians being most
In demand, though the whole field has been
pretty well tilled.
"One of Japan's very popular artists la
Hoturl Sakuyl, Mho haa recorded, among
other pieces, the celebrated lament for
NobU Nogl. you may recall (this with a
withering glance Implying scorn for those
whose history Is more honored In the
breach than tho observanceX committed
hartkarl with his wife.
"Japanese phonographto record' are
nearly all significantly different from Ameri
can ones, that is, they all have a peculiar
lento quality, which makes them sound a
good deal slower than United States manu
factured discs.
"Ily the way, Tamakl Mtura, tho soprano
of the Boston Opera Company, which Is
headed toward Philadelphia, has made some
records In her native land. She was. In
deed, ono of the first to do so. I waa told
that tho judgment of Nttobo San, tho promi
nent literary man, nnd Shlro Aknhowehl
prevailed In tho selection of her numbers.
At all events. Miss Mlura'ss patrons were In
terested In seeing that nlie got the best pos
sible vehicles for her work for the phono
graph." ,
Apropos foreign records, the Columbia
offers something out ot Uie ordinary In a
"Celeste Aldu," made by Lazaro. tho Span
ish tenor, Mho can take high D natural.
This twenty-slx-year-old singer lias ap
peared In London, llucnos Aire-. Havana
nnd Milan, but It Is not recalled that ha
ever sang In the United States.
Another record with a foreign flavor Is a
"Itomany Waltf," Issued by tho Columbia.
This Oriental melody la played by Prince's
Orchestra.
The Little Symphony Orchestra ha made
a bid for favor at the hands of Columbia
patrons with "L Ferla L Heja," In which
the minute delicacy of this sort ot muslo

1HWE always found a certain satisfaction in
the fact that I am an 'average woman that
1 am one of the thousands of women in Phila
delphiaconsistently striving for the better things
of life," remarked Mrs. Happy Homemaker.
"And so you will recognize this story as YOUR story. I was
dangerously close, a few months ago. to that irritability of the
housekeeper whose never-ending routine of duties is beginning to
wear on her nerves. So when I saw the announcement of the
reduction in rates for Electricity, I said to myself that the time
had come to make a change.
"I knew, of course, that doing one's housework Electrically was
the ideal way, but I never realized that it was such an economical
way. I found that I could use an electric sweeper for less than
2 cents per week; that an electric washer would do the washing
for 3 cents; that an electric sewing machine motor would run my
sewing machine for Mo of a cent an hour I
"I learned that with the new low rates electric light was positively
less expensive than any other form of artificial light; but it was tho
economy of doing the housework electrically, I think, that made
us determine to have our house wired that is anothtr story
which you will hear later."
Send for the booklet which tells about the
coat of doing housework Electrically it
gives some surprising figures.
