By Beatrice Fairfax "If wishes were horses, beggars might ride," says the old song; hut I think wishes are far better than that! Wishes are the fairy steeds on which we mount through desire to achievement. And' In the other old Faying, "The wish is father to the thought," there is far more of life's real truth. if you wish to be fine and sweet and kind—it is because you have in your soul the germs of fineness and sweetness and kindness. If you wish to be strong and powerful and brave. It is because these things are cradled In your personality. The germ of your wish lies in you asleep, and by wishing it long enough and earnestly enough you are calling to It to wake and preparing to develop the seed on which you are dropping the sunlight and rain of your own fertile desire. No lion tamer is likely to wish earnestly that he were a poet. No ditch digger is likely to wish strong ly that he were an astronomer. But jif he should no wish in hts heart, he will surely not be quiescent in his ditch-digging or satisfied with his i lion taming. If he truly wish, he will move on to the next stage—the stage of trying to realize his wish. What you wish is the measure of your possibility for growth. What you truly desire, and long to be, the force of your own personality must drive you to try to attain. "Oh. I wish—l wish I had a pair of pretty new shoes and didn't have to go barefoot." sighs the little child of poverty. Suppose the child lives with that wish. Soon he must wonder. "What can I do to make my wish real? How can I get those shoes?" If there is the germ of common-sense in the child's nature it will soon come to feel that the way to get your wish is not to expect the fairies to bring it to you. but to set about attaining it. And the wish has alreirly borne fruit in the thought of helping your self to rise and attain your desire. | The thought of independent person- FOR SUMMER SPORTS I New Coat That Can be Worn With Open or With Closed Neck.

Hallißsey and Peter S. McGovern on charges of ex tortion and receiving bribes by "Tony" Penn was the dismissal to day of Patrolman Fred Marks. Sev eral days ago Penn made an affidavit admitting the charges were a "frame up" and said that Marks and promi nent Republican leaders Instigated the prosecution. ality that must not ask but earn fol lows naturally. Earn What You Wish , To earn—not to beg, or borrow or steal. To earn what he wishes —that idea comes to the little child of poverty who wishes for shoes, and In wishing for these symbols is wishing too for decency and cleanliness and a certain orderly relation with the conventional respectability of society. And so Is born ambition. This sounds, perhaps, like a fable. But It Is the story of how a little immigrant boy who came to Amer ica in the steerage began to work himself up In the world. Thirty years ago he was a lad of ten running bare footed about the peat-bogs in Ire land. To-day, he is a power In his city and State. "And It's all because I wished and wished for those shoes, so I'd look de cent "like other lads," says he. "And then I began to wish for clothes that wouldn't shame my shoes. And then I had to have an education—for I'd got to wishing to be like other lads and to wishing for a chance and a place In the world. And I saw I'd not get any of them by wishing—so I got to wishing to be able to see a way to make my wishes come true. And I found work was the way. My idea of how to get on in the world is to keep wishing and wishing—and then you'll just have to see you must work too. For work's the only Fairy Godmother that makes wishes real." Wishes are horses for beggars to ride on, up and up out of poverty and degradation and suffering any man can go if he wishes with enough force for the worth-while things of life. Of course if wishing means lazily dream ing of luxury and pleasure and all the srilt and glitter of life, It is likely to lead you where you want, too. The Important part of wishing isn't the making it come true. For that happens almost of itself once your wish gathers enough momentum and force. The thing about wishing that I needs guarding and care—ls wishing / \ TRAVELETTE By NIKSAH SAUNA CRUZ Three-fourths of the way from San Francisco to Panama Is Salina Cruz, at the point of the elbow where it swing's furthest to the south and west —a town which has the distinction of being an outpost of civilization, and at the same time the possessor of the most modern port facilities to bo found anywhere in the world. The steamships that ply back and forth through Uncle Sam's great canal nearly all stop at Salina Cruz. They put In between rock-built Jetties that would make Galveston proud, anchor in thirty feet of water that makps an artificial harbor at a point upon which formerly stood a town. They pass beneath drawbridges that work by pressing a button, and the cargoes are shifted off ana on uy elec tric cranes that are up to the very minute. But the traveler, observing these evidences of enterprise, is disappointed when he starts out in search or a town to match them. Looking to landward he sees a barrier of naked hills through which there seems no passage way. From them to the water's edge is a sand waste, over whlcn the wind sweeps bleakly, driving the earth be fore it. In a semicircle a quarter of a mile away are a collection of inhar monious buildings, bearing unmistak able European earmarks and certainly not Mexican. He begins to understand wnen he Is told that an English corporation has developed the region, A railroad has been pushed across the Isthmus of Tehuantepec and Salina Cruz is the Pacific terminus. The steamships of one ocean unload at one side of the continent and those of the other ocean receive the cargoes on the other side the next day. Hence the harbor ap pliances that facilitate commerce. The whirlwinds that dance across these sands in the footsteps or Eng lishmen have dogged those of many strange visitors. When Cortez con quered Mexico, It is set down that he asked Montezuma (wheth«r under tor ture Is not stated) where the gold came from. These blepk hills were among the regions mentioned. Cortez sent Pizarro. afterward .onqueror of Peru, to find the gold, and that buc caneer came near depriving Balboa of the glory of discovering tne Pacific, for he got within five miles of It. Cortez afterward explored the region himself, and it was granted to him by the King of Spain, and remained in the possession of his descendants until 1908. The cattle of these hills are still branded with the <"ross or Santiago, which was first paced upon their an lndicate his ownership. SUMMER DRINKS During canning season It is easy to save a little fruit or berry syrup and bottle it for use later in the summer, or early the next season, before fresh berries can be obtained. These juices and syrups may be combined into an unlimited number of punches and "ades." Another syrup, more in demand for cool drinks than berry juices, is that made from juice and rind of oranges or lemons, making a sugar and water syrup of any desired thickness as the basis. Wltfi a supply of orange syrup, lemon syrup, strawberry, raspberry, currant, loganberry, cherry, and grape juices or syrups, It Is a simple matter to flavor both desserts and drinks dur ing warm weather. Plain lemonade arid orangeade may be just, as satisfactory to many people as more fancy arrangements of fruits. The flavor of these Is much beter if they are made with boiling water, then cooled, and served as cold as possible. A good proportion to use for lemonade is one cup sugar, juice of four lemons, four cups boiling wa- C on't Use Soap On Your Hair When you wash your hatr, don't use soap. Most soaps and prepared sham poos contain too much alkali, which is very Injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thins to use Is Just plain mulsified cocoanut oil, for it is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats soaps or anything else all to pieces. Tou can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it In, about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abund ance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and Is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, It loos ens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dandruff.—Advertise ment. for the right things! You have to cultivate discrimination and common sense and highmlndness In order to do any successful wishing. Every one remembers about the magic rin v T in the fairy tale. It could grant three wishes, and so bad ly were the first two spent that the last one had to be used for wishing everything back as It had been at first. If you are a little girl behind a counter —and are struggling along on $7 a week, why don't you try wishing yourself out of your rut. Why don't you wish you could make yourself so useful to your firm that you will be a $7,000 a year buyer some day. And then after you have wished (hat hard enough and long enough to have It an ambition grown out of a wish—suppose you set about making it come true! Look about you for chances to serve your firm efficiently. Think up a way to arrange your coun ter better. Try to please customers so they will ask for "that sweet-faced girl with the big blue eyes" when they come In to buy their ribbons. Spend part of your noon hour looking about to see how other shops arrange their ribbon counters. If you can draw design new patterns for the fancy ribbons. Take as much Interest in your work as you used to In thinking how abused you were to have to work. Of course, now you know that you are not abused at all—for what you want in the world is a chance to be a well-paid buyer, and there is noth ing to stop you but your own inability or laziness or failure to make the most of the chances that lie all about you. What good does wishing do? If It is good wishing, it does all the good in the world. It leads to effort, to ambition, to honesty with yourself as to your fair chance In the world pro vided you arc willing to take It—it leads to accomplishment and to happi ness. ter. Some prefer a dash of ginger or nutmeg; the flavor of these also, is improved by mixing them In with the boiling water, instead of adding to the glass of lemonade. Orange ade is made as above, with the juice of four oranges and one lemon, one cup sugar, five cups boiling water. The addition of a well-beaten egg to either of these makes a nourishing as well as refreshing drink, and by this combination many people are able to take eggs better than in any other form. ENGLISH MEAD A drink very title known in this country is old English mead, ac cording to Farm and Home. It allows any number of variations, and to the children is as entertaining as the cor ner drug store with its soda fountain. The foundation is a syrup made of two i pounds sugar, two ounces tartaric I atid, half cup sugar, juice of one I lemon, three pints water. Boil five ' minutes.
