We made plans to meet the next week and spoke on the phone in the interim. One evening, while "Lee" and I were talking, she clicked off for call waiting and never came back on the line. After a few minutes, she called and wasn't sure why I'd Advice Columnist been cut off. We talked further, and she had to click off for call waiting again. Once more, I was talking to a dial tone. An hour passed, and I became worried. I tried to call her back, but there w as no answer. Knowing Lee had call waiting and an answering machine, I gave the police her phone number, and they went to her home to check and see if she was OK. She was. Lee left a message on my machine the next day, saying she did not appreciate the police coming to her house and she thought calling them was very odd. She said she did not want to see me again.

In 1846. the United States was on the move and, as a new exhibit at the Smithsonian Institution's National Portrait Gallery shows. Americans were not planning to stop any time soon. "I wanted the show to represent the thrust of the age," said curator Margaret Christ man. a historian at the gallery and the author of a book accompanying the show. She has chosen 200 paintings, drawings, sculptures, patent models, maps and sheet music for the exhibit. "1846: Portrait of the Nation." It depicts a people heady with manifest destiny the idea that Americans were fated to settle the a peocontinent from sea to sea ple obsessed with commerce and development, fascinated with science and pseudoscience and confident of their ability to improve themselves and their world. One map shows the expanding republic, including the newly acquired state of Texas, the disputed Oregon Territory and New Califorstates of California, the presnt-da- y nia, Nev ada. Utah, Arizona and New ed following your columns on the plight of the unemployed middle class in America, and I find them provocative. When you asked Secretary of Labor Robert Reich for suggestions, I knew I had to write. Please tell your readers that the government is not the answer to their unemployment problems. Here's w hat I would do if I were in those people's shoes. First, I would look at what I have to offer. The advertising executive who was laid off after 23 years must have several contacts and many talents he could put to work on his own. The son with degrees in business and accounting could surely find opportunities to utilize those skills, helping people with their taxes and bookkeeping. He could offer his services as a consultant to new businesses. People should tap into their talents and their hobbies. I recently met a guy who was a paramedic for 19 years. He was tired of the fast track and decided he needed a change. He now sells medical equipment to ambulance services and hospitals in the Midwest, works out of his home and is very successful. Several years ago, my wife worked for an ad agency on the verge of bankruptcy. She struck out on her ow n. She hustled to get accounts, worked out of our house, hired freelance people for the creative work and developed a lucrative business. You were right when you said attitude has a lot to do with whether a person succeeds or fails. It may mean moving to another city or changing careers altogether. Sending out resumes and waiting for the phone to ring isn't very creative. Use vour imagination and sell yourself. Be willing to take a chance. The A opportunities are endless. Reader in Agana. Guam Dear Reader in Guam: How right you are. I'm sure your letter will motivate many readers to their assets and be more aggressive about helping themselves. Surely nothing is to be gained by waiting until the wolf at the door has pups.

Patent Office, which Scottish lawyer Alexander Mackay visited in 1846. "The American people discover an extraordinary talent for invention." he wrote. "The Patent-offic- e in Washington is a most creditable monument to their inventive powers." Samuel FB.

They are Yankee singers, with Yankee songs." The exhibit takes note of another important event of 1846 the AP POtO This painting entitled "War News from Mexico," done in 1848 by Richard Caton Woodville, is part of an exhibit "1846: Portrait of a Nation," which started April 12 at the Smithsonian Institution's National Portrait Gallery. In 1846, the U.S. was on the move and as the exhibit shows, Americans were not planning to stop any time soon. Mexico. By midyear the Oregon Territory would be added peacefully, through treaty with Britain, and two years later New California would be ceded by a Mexico vanquished in a war aggressively pursued by President James K. Polk. With the exception of New England, the country was gripped by war fever, as is depicted in Richard Caton Woodville's oil painting. "War New s from Mexico." Also in the show is William Garl Brown Jr.'s "Zachary Taylor at Walnut Springs," commissioned by a the world's fifth largest city and the nation's ports teemed with trade. But the real action was to the west. "St. Louis in 1846." an oil painting by Henry Lewis, tells the suny of western expansion. In the background is the bustling city, its riverfront cluttered with steamboats competing for wharf space, while in a glade in the foreground settlers emblaload covered wagons zoned with "Bound for Oregon." Slavery loomed over America that year. Images of the leaders and soldiers of an energetic reform movement are exhibited, as are ones of slavery's victims. On display is sheet music for "The Fugitive's Song." sung by the Hulchin-son- s Whig newspaper publisher eager to give the public a look at the reclusie war hero who was to become president in 848.
