Anne Hey wood A Window Box Garden Led Her To A Career we worry about a problem so much that we cloud the picture and make it that much harder to solve. I've known people to whom problems are a chronic ailment. Try Too Hard For years, they strain and strive to solve them. But they try so hard that they're too exhausted and" confused to find a solution. In a case like that, it's a good idea to drop (he problem entirely for a few days or weeks, and take one's mind off it entirely.

Then it frequently solves itself. That's what a friend of mine did and it worked beautifully. She is a hard-working widow, with three teen-age chilren. She had a part-time job which paid very little and kept wishing it was more lucrative. No Skills what could I expect?" she asked me.

"I have no skills, no training. I eot a job selling in a shop in town and that was the best I could do. There wasn't much money in it, but, try though 1 would. I couldn't Ihink of anything belter. I used to lie awake nights, tryinsr to think of some way of making more money.

But the more I thought, the more hopeless it seemed. "Finally" she went on, "I decided I was driving myself crazy this, way and I had to stop. This wasn't easy to do for I was in the habit of worrying. "So I promised myself I'd take up gardening, a hobby I'd always meant to try. "I got window boxes and filled them with easy things.

I got a book on window plants and studied it whenever I found mysell fretting. I kept the book beside my bed. "During the night, instead of tossing and worrying about the job problem, I turned on the light arid read my plant book. In She mornings, instead of mooning over the low-paying job, I put the time into my plants. "It's funny," she told me, ''but little by little, I began to worry really have lime for it.

And I guess by dispo sition kids say so, anyway. I became so interested in my nlanls that 1 had a fine time comparing notes with people even customers. Offered A Job ''You can imagine what happened. A woman who owns a florist shoo offered me a job. She said she would not only pay a straisht salary but also a commission en what I sell! "I've only been there a month now, but I've increased sales and mnke double the money!" The hobby you nnEacc in may not lead directly lo the job.

However, you can be sure that if you'll take your worrying time and turn it into hobby time, things will improve in your life. If. like Mrs. you've always meant to take up gardening, send me a stamped, self-addressed envelope, care of this newspaper, and I'll send you my list of cood books the field. Arlene M.
