Washington The Spirit of Discontent The spirit of discontent is responsible for all of our great discoveries an'd all oT our great inventions; it ,has_b_cen . behind all of the movements Tor the raising of the standard of civilization Philips Brooks said: "Sad will be the day for any man when he becomes satisfied with the thoughts he is thinking and The deeds he ~Ts doing; when there is not forever beating wl thg tluui'S flf Tils <' """" i" ' "u liW" BEflUTgROfl TV* larfMM toanty Foundation VM Mm Oodafroy MmhctiHig Company t< of prtMnrlag woman's natural baiuty, MM ranlta of tfcls rwaarck avallabM With ?n the emphasis on yonth and beauty, more and more women are dyeing their hair. Blondes, redheads and brunettes have all agreed that In many cases nature can and should be Improved upon. Gone Is iha-dajr when dyed hair was so obvious that It defeated Its purpose. With the new scientific Improvements In halr-colorlng anyone can have youthful, natural-looking hair with a minimum of time and trouble. .JIany people feel that once they /I tta/1 f Krtln Vtolv* t Vi n \r V* o XT a 1 of UATQ UJ CU I IltH UUil VUVJ UU T V *V-V themselves la for a llfe-loutr lob course, Is ridiculous. Surely yeu don't begrudge the time you give to your shampoo. Re-touching -with hair coloring need be done much leBS often, and takes very Jittle longer. The frequency of these treatments depends upon how fast your hair grows. Some people find that added color Is necessary at the roots of the hair every three weeks, others can wait six weeks or more. At any rate, it Is well wuitli the added time. i?Please do not think that I fan to j see the beauty of some white or graying hair. White hair softens an older face and forms a halo around It. It gives one an elderly and benign look which is most attractive In a grandmother. But to the younger woman, grandmotherliness Is hardly en effect to be sought after. There Is nothing more drab soul some _great?desire?tt*?ckr something larger-.which Ji?~-knQWf:. >M~was *pade and meant to do". As Jong as men possess the spirit of discontent*; as long as they have visions and desire and initiating impulse to make-arlivipg reality of- their dreams; they will progress. ' Life would come to a numdrum stand still were it not for the dissatisfied; fot?t-hooc who ate urnstantly searching for ways and means to satisfy the wants, needs and aspirations of mankind. Columbus,. dissatisfied with the old route to India, sought a quicker way and discovered America. Edison became dissatisfied with the stereopticon lamp, gave us in its place the moving picture and the i:/candescent lamp. Robert Fulton, dissatisfied with the slow mov ing sailing vessel of his time, invented the first successful steamboat, the forerunner of the modern ocean liner. Stephenson, dissatisfied with tho time wasting stagecoach, gave us the steam locomotive.. . Cyrus Field, dissatisfied with tho slowness of commercial communication between Europe and Ameri ca, spanned the Atlantic with a cable of wire and opened up a new highway of progress. The Puritans became dissatisfied with the intolerance .which prevented them from worshipping according "to their beliefs, risked the dangers of a long voyage on practically unknown seas, and settling on the bleaked coasts of New England, helped to found one of the great nations of earth. nicoof icfonfiAt^ ics Ann a! the underlying principles of hu mail progress.
