Inc New England Town of ro.day

The Rev. Samuel W. Dlke points out tho
changes that have come over the New Eng-
land town, both IN Ito educational and rellg-
ious life. The religious denominations have
destroyed the old unity, the schools have de-
stroyed the old central purpose or the town
life, and the draft OF the city upon the rural
districts exhausts the means by which the Old
tone ia maintained. Mr.. D'ke Insists that two
things must be done. one Is to restore
religious unity, which is now almost the
last thing that seems possible; the other Is to
restore tho family 10 Its old place.

The Model Wife.

Scripture and history and poetry vie
with one another sounding the praises
OF the model wife. The man who is
blessed with companion worthy the
name OF model wife can snap his fin
gers in the faces of all the old bache-
Tors that ever breathed, and give them
points each day in every exalted pleas
ure that makes life worth living.
There is no danger of his applying for
divorce.
Unfortunately for the married men
Of this generation the model wives are
most all dead. The struggle for exist
ence was too much for them. The
ceaseless, silent, self-sacrifce needed
to build up a model domestic character
could only be met and borne as long as
there was living appreciation of the
personal laws OF duty that underlie all
sorts of ideal existence The men who
appreciated model wives and were in
return willing to be model husbands
were so few that the good wives-that
is, the model wiyes-grew discouraged
and took to their graves or some more
congenial occupation.
The few model wives that are left are
cherished by their husbands beyond
even their cigars or their horses. Tho
model wife Of the workingman, clerk
or business man has some appreciation
OF the 10000 little labors, petty cares
and annoyances that her husband has

worrying cares are part Of the duties
by which her husband makes livino

husband comes homo from his work.

out OF sorts, she is always ready 10
meet him with some quiet and pentleN
good cheer Her own person IL attrac-
tive and restful TO him. She always
has some pleasant scheme in mind TO
make his home hours delightful TO him.
and SO makes herself indispensable and
constant joy.
The model vito does not see how
many poor and silly and exacting
things she can say to her tired husband
If she has anything to ask she waits
until he is rested and fed. She invites
pleasant people TO her home. not TO
show how many rich things she has.
but to make her husbands home hours
pass cheerfully. She knows that If she
is half woman no other can displace
her in her husbands affections. She Is
always more attractive in her manners
to her husband than to other men. She
is the genius of the household. But.
