BY MILLE GADK CORSON Written for NT A 'Service wp'HERE ought to be written a -* new decalogue for business men and women of today, forced to live under conditions of life which are not quit* what the normal out-of-door existence of our forefathers was. If I were to write these ten commandments they would be verc simple and a lot of people would find it easier to be righteous if they followed them: 1. Don't, worn'. 7. Don’t eat too much. 3. Love your neighbor, but don't live too close to him. 4 Irrigate your system thoroughly ever>- day. There is no prohibition against water. Drink a hot cup every morning before breakfast. 5. Even if you own an automobile. don't always ride. Give your legs and lungs a chance. 6. Keep your life regular, but not regular enough to be monotonous. 7. Your nose was made for breathing purposes. Keep your mouth closed when you have nothing to say. Have a Hobby n Remember that sleep is nature's greatest, restorer Get all you can. 9. Fresh air and sunshine weren't meant, only for Powers and birds. Live as much as possible in the open. 10. If you haven't a hobby, get one: get on and ride, but- don' ride it to death. One of the most, destructive forces in the world today is worry. and most of it is unnecessary. Nine-tenths of the things which peoole worn' about, never happen, and if they do happen, worrying about them can not help. Work Destroys Worry If I had spent my time worrying whether my strength or my money v ould hold out long enough to ge me safely across the English channel. I w-oulti never have left. America. People say that they can not help worrying. I doubt if many of these sincerely try the experiment. The best antidote for the w-or-rying habit, is hard work. And if vou are fortunate enough not to have to work at something, then play hard at something. A sound btxiv is a magnificent backer for a sound mind. The combination is unbeatable.

tariff rates in the house tariff bill would cause a popular storm of resentment which might sweep out of their scats many senators and congressmen who voted for it. Spreckels ! said. Instead, he proposed slidin scales which he said would stabilize sugar a: 6 rent.* a pound or slightly more New York refiners' prices, which would b*’ an increase of more than a cent a pound over 'he presen. price. This scale would protect tue United States beet sugar fanners, provided his suggestion for a refiners’ margin oi profit to be fixed by the government were adopted. Spreckels said, and wpuld not hurt Cuba. Cuban representatives have told, the committee the flat house rates would ruin the island.
