Small Circus Wagon
Will Please Children

Bell Syndicate—WNU Feature*

LJERE is a gift idea that appeals
*■* to everyone. It’s a circus
wagon plant holder that makes a
delightful center piece for the
table. Ivy and other small potted
plants thrive in this gaily decorated
circus wagon. If there is a child in
the family, forget its use as a center
piece and make several wagons to
form a circus. Youngsters love to
rage their wild animals and move
them about.
The full size pattern offered be-
low offers a quick and easy method
sf building. No special tools or
skill are required. User merely
traces the pattern on the wood pat-
tern specifies, saws and assembles.
To insure painting with a profes-
lional touch, full size decorating
ratlines are provided. These are
traced on the wood and painted the
colors pattern suggests. Pattern
ipecifies using small pieces of wood
that can be purchased at any lum-
ber yard.

IUIOST of the things that make
■T* life pleasant don’t cost any-
thing. This is a simple truth,
but staggering in its signifi-
cance. It has all the force of that
little chamber of steam that
moves mighty locomotives. It
has the compelling strength of j
that rippling peaceful little river
whose power lights our great
towns and throbs through our
household machinery.
It costs nothing to be agreeable,
but if many men and women knew
what it wins, our divorce, suicide,
melancholia and general domestic
tragedy statistics would be changed
amazingly.
Most persons are not agreeable.
They didn’t have an example of
family pleasantness a* children;
they get into criticizing and dis-
satisfied habits of speech; they went
on into their own lives and mar-
riages just being mean. Not always
In action, but often in speech.
Approach Is Hostile
One of my neighbors is a fine, un-
selfish, capable wife and mother.
But she is disagreeable. Her voice
has an undertone of whine and con-
tempt. She accomplishes wonders
for her family and would die for
their welfare; she takes tender care
of her invalided mother; she is a
true, economic, sympathetic wife.
But her first approach to any sub-
ject or plan is hostile.
When Jim Scott gets home at
night, Lynn often will start off with
a string of discouragements that ac-

Watch Your

of Harmful Body Waste
Tour kidneys are conattntly filtering
er trot
wtste matter from the blood stream. But
kidneys sometimes lag in their work—do
not act aa Nature intended—fail to re-
move impurities that, if retained, may
poison the system and upset the whole
body machinery.
Symptoms may be nagging backache,
persistent headache, attacks of ditzineaa.

under the eyes—a feeling of nervous
anxiety and loss of pep and strength.
Other signs of kidney or bladder die*
order are sometimes burning, scanty or
too frequent urination.

counts tor Jim’s somewhat brow-
beaten and henpecked aspect. The
best of husbands and fathers, he is
meek, quiet, trouble-avoiding at
home.
’’Shut that door quickly. For
pity’s sake, look at your rubbers,”
Lynn says from the kitchen. "Don’t
track that out here—I’ve been clean-
ing all day. If we’re going to be
crazy enough to go to the Smith’s
tonight, you’ve got to change. Well,
you have to. What am I doing out
here? The children have to eat. Jim,
whether we go out or not. You look
terrible, I suppose you’re going to
have flu, now that we’re through
with it. That’s the way—one gets it, I
all get it. There’s Thompson's bill— !
awful, perfectly awful. I’ve nothing {
to wear tonight, I don’t know why I
said we’d go, but you always accept
everything and then wish afterward
you hadn't. We’ve never had them
here and I don't want them here, j
but we'll have to have them now.
No, the kitchen isn't clean at all,
Jim—it’s filthy. Rose had hers done.
It cost $60. I said 'Not for the Scotts,
not this year.’ I’ll get my teeth
fixed, the next money I get. Rose
said Bert’s were going to be over
$700. You’re so tired you don’t want
it. That’s all I get for heating you up
a cup of soup.”
She Loves Her Family
And during this monologue, Lynn
will be putting a cup of delicious
broth before her tired man, moving
briskly about a speckless kitchen,
setting the children's dinner down
on a daintily set kitchen table and
proving every second that she loves
her own people and will do anything
for their comfort.
Well, the physical service is valu-
able. But equally important is the
mental and spiritual help that a
healthy, courageous philosophy
brings to even the most drab or dis-
couraging situation.
We all know what it means when
to our frightened and apprehensive
questions the doctor says, "This is
nothing serious. We can take care of
this and have you back in shape in
no time.”
To certain persons that optimistic,
hopeful attitude is natural. But all
of us should try to cultivate it.
Courage is contagious and, when in
the face of disaster, one’s closest
companion is undaunted and takes
the position, "Why, we can meet
this. We’ll weather it as we have
everything else.” how refreshing,
how reassuring it is! How one's own
courage rises to meet it!
Many years ago a family of six
orphans had a family conference.
They had been living along in care-
free American fashion. Now, almost
overnight, they were faced with
mature responsibilities and burdens.
The hope, the vitality and, yes, the
fun of that talk comes back to me
across almost half a century. They
could cut this, save that, earn the
other.
It was the oldest brother's Incor-
rigible optimism that inspired
them all. "Sure we can do it—we're
Americans.” was his argument then
as it ia bit in success today.
