There is many father of family who
while doing his utmost for his children, while
he is in heal h, and making the best provision
he can for them i'll anticipation of is own
death, wholly neglects to put such provision
in tangible shape where it can be readily
understood and manipulated by the mother
OF other guardian in case of his death coming
suddenly. A case recently came to our notice
where property Of considerable value was so
tied up with legal restrictions, owing entirely
to lack of few formalites which could have
been attended TO in a days work. that the
widow and children were kept for more than
year dependent upon the good will of
friends before money could be made avail
able Death is not ordinarily FASTENED by
making preparations for it, and the subject
should not he avoided on account Of its I'M
pleasant character.
Many a model husband and father, whose
business methods are of the most methodical
and strictly honorable kind, would find am
pie occasion to blame himself for neglect if
he would consider for a moment in what
confusion his family would be placed if this
day should prove his last. A good plan is to
make at least once year written state
ment Of ones affairs at that time, and file it,
in an envelope with the wifes name upon it,
in particular place which she and perhaps
one other person shall know of, if not in her
own custody Such memorandum should
contain description Of life insurance policies
or similar documents, and state where will,
if any, is to be found; membranes of any
kind should be noted; unfinished transac-
lions should be briefly described, that their
status may be fully understood; and even if
there exists no property whatever, written
statement TO that eff ct would relieve doubt
and avoid needless inquiry and suspense, in
case ones business affairs were of fuctuat-
Ing nature, which could not always be closely
followed by the wife or fully explained 10
her.

Few people, l find, realize the benefit to be
gained from free use of fruit Now,
would suggest that the child, rather than
the mother, be held responsible for the prep
aration Of the daily lunch, but instead of
sending him to the pantry for bread, meat,
cake, etc, would suggest that he be sent
down cellar or out into the field for some
ripe apples, pears or grapes. A moderate
supply of sound, ripe fruit, together with
one or two graham gems, make a luncheon
far more healthful and appetizing than most
of the luncheons that find their way into the
baskets of many of our school children.
Some two or three years ago the luncheon
problem became a personal one with me.
Teaching two sessions a day, too far from
home to dine with the family, the oft recur-
ring question what to have for lunch became
a most perplexing one. Finally, through
the advice of my physician, and l must con-
fess somewhat under protest, l made the OK
pertinent Of making my noon day meal en-
tirely of fruit and coarse graham bread.
The after dinner heaviness gave way to a
feeling Of buoyancy, and headaches and at
tacks of indigestion became far less common
than formerly. Now, for the ten school
months, my bill of fare for lunch is almost
invariably limited to ripe fruit and graham
gems or crackers, and my constantly in
creasing health and strength more than JUS
tify the wisdom of the experiment-"A j.

Man, that is born of woman, is prone to
fatigue. Woman, that is married to man, is
Just as prone to fatigue 1t is in their re-
spective methods Of showing their tiredness
that man and a woman differ as widely as
the roar of n cyclone differs from the sigh
and sob of the oceans voice. When a man is
fused up" ''tired out" he not only knows it,
but he takes some pains to impress the fact
upon those about him, those of his OVID
household in particular. His wife knows it
while he is yet afar off; knows it by his step,
the way he bangs the front door, and by the
manner of his hanging up coat and hat in the
hall. The children know it, often to their
cost. The used up mans clerks know it and
act accordingly, and his employees know that
in their employers sullen visage the storm
signal is visible. The average man there
are some glorious exceptions to the rule is,
when suffering from fatigue, not only very
tired, but he makes those about him tired
with him, often of him. So much for the
husband and father.
How about the wife and mother! She is
never aggressively tired, though she may be
complainngly so. She is most apt to hide
from those about her the fact that she is
very, very tired, and to smile when she is
weary to the hearts core For a woman's
work and duties are of the kind that bring
WEAKNESS of soul and body and spirit She
is often called upon to confront such q
wearying array of small worriments in the
fulfllment of her daily duties as would sim
ply madden the most even tempered man.
Yet she not only passes the ordeal success
fully, but is ready, when the day is over, to
absorb from her husband some of his wear-
ness by the exercise of her womanly sympa-
thy. 1t can be safely assumed that men, as
rule, and as compared to the utter weari-
ness which comes to women, do not know the
meaning of the word tired" But they
think they do, and they act in manner
calculated to make their WEAKNESS very
wearisome to others. Pittsburg Bulletin.

Acting RhYmes.

The players being seated in a circle one Of
them gives a simple word, to which each has
to find a rhyme that can be expressed by
some movement, grimace or inarticulate
sound. Let us suppose that six persons are
engaged in this pastme, and that the first
player proposes the word bat; the second
player stands up and rubs his shoes on the
carpet to signify that he is using mat; the
third player no " commences to purr or new
like cat; the fourth makes low bow and
raises an imaginary hat from his head; the
fifth, if sufficiently active, scampers about
the room, on all tours, like a rat; the sixth
goes through certain antics supposed to per-
tain to the Irish character, by which he tries
to intimate that he is Pat; and the first
player, who is bound to find rhyme to his
own word, lies on his back and stretches out
his hands so as to be perfectly flat. If any
player speaks while acting his rhyme, if ne
fails to make his actions Ineligible, or if be
cannot find a rhyme to the given word, he
must pay forfeit. Tho players take it by
turns to propose a word, which should never
consist of more than one syllable.
