BE NATURAL
AND BE "REAL"
Affectation Bores Friends and
Yourself; Frankness and
Honesty Make One Loved
By ISi:\TKICE FAIRFAX
"A real person" is one who has an
honest knowledge of himself, the
mental detachment to stand off and
criticise that self, the fineness and
strength to cultivate the best and
ronquer the worst in that self, and
enough healthy impulse to thorough
ly compel vital, energetic living.
"A real person" has healthy instincts,
normal desires and an honest way
of expressing them, and sanity
enough to respect other people's in
dividuality even while expressing
Ills own.
Affectation surely must bore the i
one who practices it. It means a j
constant strain, a constant mincing
along on tip-toes when you want'
to stride on the balls of your feet, i
And even as a man must have dn |
excellent memory to be a. good liar, i
so he has to keep careful track of
his pose and the things he has done
>to establish It, in order to keep on
affecting: it.
The poser is always forced to live
up to something he is not. He has
to keep his eye on his audience to
see if he is making: a successful im
pression. He has to go through the
strain of posturing and grimacing
and play-acting. Xo matter how
much he longs to wash off the
"grease-paint" and "make-tip" from
his attitude, he has to go on wear
ing them.
Now, for naturalness. What will
ii do for you? Well, first ol' all, the
"You" you honestly are will attract
the friendships that are honestly
congenial to it and will be able to
<io the things it honestly longs to do.
You don't wear yourself out when
you express yourself; you just grow
freely along the lines that are nat
ural for you.
How are you going to be natural ?
In previous articles I have tried to
indicate how you may find out what
you really are and which of the
qualities you really have you want
to cultivate. After you have done
that, what you want to do with
your naturalness is to bring it into
human relations.
The first use you make of your
naturalness in your human relation
ship is frankly and honestly to ex
press the affection you feel for peo

11l Health Of
Neglect of Kidneys and Liver
Many organs take part In assimf
lation of food, and a number are ac
tive in eliminating those portions of
ilie food which are not tuken into
the blood for the upbuilding of th
body. Of the eliminative organs, the
liver and the kidneys are of majot
importance, and are most likely tc
lie overworked and become diseased.
When such is the case, various trou
bles of a digestive and eliminative
character occur, and such troubles
are so frequent, and so common that
it is absolutely necessary to find
isomt relief. Warner's Safe Kldnej
\>nd Liver Remedy was compounded
over 40 years ago to help equalize
the work of both kidneys and liver.
How successful'it has been Is evi
denced by its widespread sale and
its value is attested by an immense
number of appreciative users who
through these many years have put
it to the severest tests with the most
satisfactory results.

CLOTHES—ASD THE WOMAN
''•'AH MISS FAIRFAX;
I I have been going about with a
; young man for about five months, and
have now found out that he does not
| care for mo on account of my clothes.
IHe claims that I do not dress like
j every other girl, but have explained
it to him that I do not care to because
my father is in the hospital.
Do you think I should continue go
ing with him, or should I drop him,
as I have friends that care for me for
myself.
CLARA L.
Clothes really do not count. Of
course, if your father is ill, you art
thinking of him and not of the latest
New York fashions. That doesn't
mean that neatness, cleanliness and
tidiness have ceased being, important.
I am sure that you can keep yourself
lokoing well groomed even in old
clothes, and any man who judges you
by what you wear rather than by
what you are is not particularly worth
while. I don't think the quarrel be
tween you two need break off your
friendship at all. Just try to convert
the young man to a common sense
view of the situation.

stdge were a box of candy and an
Irish plum pudding. She had
brought the latter from the old
country with her and was taking it
and the chocolates to the Husted
children. But just now the stage
was as far from them as Drogheda.
Like many rough frontiersmen,
Swiftwater Pete was a diamond in
the raw. So far as could be he made
a hopeless and impossible situation
comfortable. His judgment told him
that they were caught in a trap
from which there was no escape,
but for the sake of the women he
put a cheerful face on things.
"Lucky we found this cabin," he
growled amiably. "By this time we d
'a' been up Salt creek if we hadn't.

Mighty kind of Mr. Last Tenant to
leave us this firewood. We ain't so

"If we only had some food," Mrs.
Olson suggested.
"Food!" Pete looked at her In
assumed surprise. "Huh: What

the stable? I've heard tell, ma'am,
that broncho tenderloin is a favorite

Sheba had never before slept on
bare b6ards with a sealskin coat for
a sleeping bag. But she was verv

the pain of her body. When she

through tho soft flesh to the bones.
She was cold, too, and crept closer
to the stout Swedish woman lying
beside her. Presently she fell a
sleep again to the sound of the bliz
zard howling outside. When she
wakened for the third time it was
morning.
In tile afternoon the blizzard died
away. As far as the eye could see,
Sheba looked out upon a waste of
snow. Her eyes turned from the
desolation without to the bare and
cheerless room in which they had
found shelter. In spite of herself a
little shiver ran down the spine of
the girl. Had she come into this
Arctic >solitudo to find her tomb?
As soon as the storm had moder
ated enough to let him go out with
safety, Swiftwater Pete had taken
one of the horses for an attempt at
trail breaking.
"Me, I'm after that plum pudding.
I gotta get a feed of oats from the
stage for mjf bronchs too. The
scenery here is sure fine, but it ain't
what you would call nourishing.
Huh! Watch our smoke when mo
and old Baldface git to bucking
them drifts."
He had been gone two hours and
the dusk was already descending
over the white waste when Sheba
ventured out to see what had be
come of the stage driver. But the
cold was so bitter that she soon gave
up the attempt .to fight her way
through the drifts and turned back
to the cabin.
Some time later Swiftwater Pete
came stumbling into their tempo
rary home. He was fagged to ex
haustion but triumphant. Upon the
table he dropped from the crook of
his number arm two packages.
"The makings for a Christmas
dinner," he said -with a grin.
Mrs. Olson thawed out the pur
ding and the chocolates In the oven
and made a kind of mush out of
some oats Pete had saved from the
horse feed. They ate their one
sided meal in high spirits. The
freeze had saved their lives. If it
held clear till to-morrow they could
reach Smith's crossing on the crust
of the snow.
Swiftwater broke up the chairs
for fuel and demolished the legs of
the table, ufter which he lay down
before the stove and fell at once
into a sodden sleep.
Presently Mrs. Olson lay down on
the bed and began to snore regu
larly. Sheba could not sleep. The
boards tirod her bones and she was
cold. Sometimes she slipped into
cat naps that were full of bad
dreams. When she wakened with a
start it was to find that the tire had
died down. She was shivering from
lack of cover. Quietly the girl re
plenished the fire and lay down
again.
When she wakened with a start
it was morning. A faint light sift
ed through the single window of the
shack. Sheba whispered to the older
woman that she was going out for
a little walk.
As she worked her way down the
gulch Sheba wondered whether the
news of their loss had reached Ku
siak. Were search parties out al
ready to rescue them? Colby Mac
donald had gone into the blizzard
years ago to save her father. Per
haps he might have been out all
night trying to save her father's
daughter. Peter would go, of
course—and Gordon Elliot. The
work in the mines would stop and
men would volunteer by scores.
That was one line thing about the
Xorth. It responded to the unwrit
ten law that a man must risk his
own life to save others.
From a little knoll Sheba looked
down upon the top of the stage
three hundred yards below her, and
while she stood there the promise
of the new day was blazoned on the
sky. It came with amazing beauty
of green and primrose and ame
thyst, while the stars flickered out
and the heavens took on the blue
of sunrise. She drew a deep, slow
7
breath of adoration and turned
away. As she did so her eyes di
lated and her body grew rigid.
Across the snow waste a man
was coming, lie was moving to
ward the cabin and must cross tho
trench close to her. The heart of
the girl stopped, then beat wildly to
make up the lost stroke. He had
come through the blizzard to save
her.
At that very instant, as If the
stage had been set for it, the won
derful Alaska sun pushed up into
the crotch of the peaks and poured
its radiance over the Arctic waste.
The pink glow swept in a tide of
delicate color over the snow and
transmuted it to millions of spark
ling diamonds. Tho Great Magi
cian's wand had recreated tho
world instantaneously.
