Particular stress is most properly

A grisly and revolting bequest is
that recorded by Dr. Forbes: A cer

crossed In love, concluded to end an
unhappy and disappointing life, or
dored his body to be boiled down, and
all the fat to be extracted there from
to be used In making a candle, which
was to be presented to the object of
his affections, together with a letter
containing his adieus and expressions
of undying love. The time chosen for

"To him who hath shall bo given,"
embodies a lot of truth to the unlucky,
but it is often misconstrued.
It is tho person who is painfully
conscious of what he has not, and ev
erlastingly worried because he can't
get what ho' feels ought to be his
share, of this world's goods, who re
mains in the narrow groove of want
and unsatisfied wishes.
You must force yourself out of the
pit mentally before you can do It ma
terially. In other words, you must
discipline your mind to think right,
will right and work right, and then
let the rest take care of Itself.
Somebody, who,conslderlng her for
mer distress and present well being,
must have acquired the secret of
luck, says: "If you can work delight
fully and hopo delightfully each day,
and never once think about making
both ends meet, they are sure to meet
and a Httlo over."
Here are a few good rules for tho
unlucky:"
Even If you are not doing tho work
for which you are best fitted, do It with
a light heart for the time being, and
something better will surely turn up
by and by. You get much further by
forcing optimism than by yielding to
pessimism.
If you have faith in yourself and
your object a few rocks along the
wayside won't bother you much. You
will realize that failures may be step
ping stones, and not put It down to
mere bad luck which you can't con
trol. Don't worry about tomorrow or next
week or next month. It Is so much
time, energy, and mind force gone to
waste.
Try to hold the thought that for ev
ery need there Is a supply.
Never plunge into an orgy to for
get a failure later on you are only
ashamed of your weakness and It
might add to your grouch.
Don't wheedle for somebody's sym
pathy or assistance. Your own advice
to yourself Is better than long winded
counsel from people who only half
understand your mind and condition.
Never expect a miracle of luck un
less you can do miracles of hard work
and are a miracle of endurance and
resolve.
When luck begins to come your way
don't brag about it to others. They
may not wish you well.
Even though you have learned to
rough It In the lean years, don't bo
come parsimonious when the outlook
Is better. Give and thou shalt re
ceive. Bad luck will surely overtako you
again if you selfishly bug your mate
rial success.
Sacrifice a little of your luck to the
gods and you'll have more of It don't
be a foolish spendthrift but a benevo
lent helper If you want luck to hold.
Finally, when luck has come your
way In the definite form of many dol
lars, don't be bo rapaciously hungry
for more that you go plugging after it
with sand In your eyes. Squl blind
ness Is always punished In th end.

Many women do not give much

Judicious selection than is thought,

saving mounts up.

EMPIRE BAG HERE TO STAY
In Present Stage It It Thing of
Beauty and Joy of the
Season.
There Is no end to the variety of
form and color assumed by the ever
Increasingly popular empire bag. In
its present stage it is a thing of beauty
and a Joy of tho season, though, being
a child of Dame Fashion, It cannot be
a Joy forever.
You have no idea how much money
can be centered on the development of
these handsome and thoroughly charm
ing envelopes. Costly gilt ornaments
are seen on many of the more elab
orate ones, some of which aro made
entirely of gold, silver, copper or steel
colored lace. Seml-preclous stones
are used to carry out a flower pat
tern or to highten the effect of con
ventional designs. Inside are trap
pings of silver, gold or ivory, tiny
vanity cases, mirrors, powder puffs,
lip pencils and the like.
Another idea that has caught the
fancy of the woman who counts not
cost, Is an empire bag of brocade,
either velvet or satin, to match her
hat or Its trimmings. Usually this
hat Is one of the small bonnetlike
models edged with bands of fur, such
as moleskin, Persian lamb, chinchilla
or ermine. A band of the fur outlines
the bag and the flap, which buttons
over envelope fashion Of course, the
plainest of autumn suits would as
sume a smart tone when worn with
such ultra fashionable foibles.
Bags of broadcloth of the same ma
terial as the suit hare deej) chenille
fringes around the sides and bot
toms, and correspondingly plain
mountings of gun metal, old gold or
frosted sliver.
Any odd piece of - Bilk or velvet
nicked up on the remnant counter may
bo transformed Into a strikingly hand
some empire bag In an afternoon. And
there Is a splendid chance for a dis
play ot individuality.
Favorite Dishes.
A woman who enjoys having
friends to lunch or dinner has the
happy faculty of hitting on Just the
things her guests enjoy eating. For
some years she has made It a point
to Jot down the favorite dishes of this
friend or .that In a tiny note book In
her desk. When her cousin Molly is
coming to lunch sh looks up her
name, and there finds recorded that
tho aforesaid Molly Is particularly
fond of custard desserts of any kind;
clam Is her favorite soup, and in
meats she dotes on anything cooked
en casserole. With these hints
spread before her the matter of plan
ning a meal Is considerably simpli
fied. Anotner friend has often said she
never tastes such pies as are served
by her hostess; ariotber likes tomatoes
in any form, and still another prefer
fish to meat.
""The guests little know that they.
