THE SEMI-WEEKLY RECORD
Fort Worth, Texas
In addition to subscribing for your home paper, which you
cannot well afford to be without, you must have a
High Class General Newspaper
As a trustworthy family paper, the Semi-Weekly Fort
Worth Record has no superior. It isn't for any limited set
of people; it's for every member of the family. If you don’t
tind something of interest in a particular issue—well the
editor looks on that issue as a failure. In addition to print-
ing all the news of the day in concise form—The Record has
special features for each member of the family. T.he remark-
able growth of The Record is the best evidence of its merits.
really do laugh.
Most people smile, and once in
a while chuckle or giggle, but
the hearth, natural, unrestrain-
ed laugh that makes you want to
laugh too, even if you don’t know
what the joke is—well, that’s
about as rare as a man who
doesn’t measure success by
money or a woman who doesn’t
judge other women by their
clothes
And because of its rarity, the
gift of laughter is an invaluable
social asset.
A man was telling me recently
how he happened to spend an ev-
ening at a summer boarding
house where there were half a
dozen girls and not a man but
himself. He told how he was
introduced to the group, and
what nice girs they were, and
what a shame it was there
weren’t some nice men to amuse
them. Did you see any of them
again? I asked. “Yes. I was
back there the next week and I
took one Of them canoeing,” he
said.
It was an interesting oppor-
tunity to inspect the psychology
of a man’s choice, and tind out
just why, with the pick of six, he
he chose that one. I put the
question. “Why did you choose
that particular one? Was she the
prettiest? He considered a mo-
ment “No, I don’t think so. I
guess it was just because she
laughed the most at my attempts
at wit. ”
You see
Laughter is an oil for the so-
cial relation.
In a’crowd on an ocean voyage
1 noticed one woman whom
everyone seemed to like to talk
to. I watched and listened and
found it was not because she was
extraordinarily witty or amusing
but because she always laughed
at the proper place with a heart-
iness and spontaneity that made
her companions feel that they
must be extraordinarily witty
and amusing.
Maybe you don’t find it easy
to laugh. You are afraid your
laugh is unmusical. Then make
it musical. Learn to laugh pret-
tily. It can be done just as an
unmusical voice can be modulat-
ed into harmonious tones. List-
en to your own laugh and con-
scientiously attempt to make it
more pleasing. If you can afford
it, go to a singing teacher and let
him to teach|you how to laugh.
All that will make you self-con-
scious—some one protests. You
will become affected if you learn
to laugh. Don’t let it make you
self-conscious. Don’t be effected.
Just learn to laugh well enough
so that you aren’t afraid to, so
that you aren’t self-conscious,
and then cultivate a disposition
to be geuuinely and easily amus-
ed, and you will have a social
talent that will do much to make
you welcome everywhere.

Caught Big Fish
Last Thursday evening Uncle
Peter Shofner and some others
went fishing on the creek near
town. On this trip they caught
a catfish weighing twenty pounds
It was thought by the party
that a large fish was in the hole
where they went fishing and of
course they were looking for his
fishship. Old Bounce, the bull-
dog, spied the large fish under a
rock in shallow water and his
antics called the attention of the
fisherman to its whereabouts.
Preparations for its capture were
made and the twenty pounder
safely landed.—Crawford Grit.

tent that it shall go into efiect

tirain crossing the Brazos riyer
bridge ^st night overtook a pe-
destrian, and to save hi in self the
stranger leaped over the parapet,
falling into a soft shoal of mud

the man and found that he, had
been carying a large black cat
under his arm and held in his
hand a suit case. Whejj the res-
cuers reached him he was up to
his waist in mud and had the cat
on one shouder and the suit case
on the other. He was uninjured
and was able to resume his jour-
ney with his property, including
the cat.

“My mother is a great suf-
ferer from rheumatism, and Dr.
Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills is the only
remedy that relieves her.”
MRS. G. DAVENPORT,
Roycefield, N. J.
The pains of rheumatism are
almost invariably relieved with
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills. They
also overcome that nervous irri-
tation which prevents sleep be-
cause they soothe the nerves. To
chronic suffers they are invalu-
able. When taken as directed,
they relieve the distress and
save the weakening influence of
pain, which so frequently pros-
trates. Many sufferers use them
whenever occasion requires with
the greatest satisfaction, why
not you? They do not derange
the stomach nor create a habit
Why not try them? Get a pack-
age from your druggist. Take
