HIGHER EDUCATION
How About Educating Husbands and
Fathers.

Fathers.
EDS. RECoRD-UNIoN: / saw in the REC
oRD-UNIoN OF February 10th notice of
an article by Mrs. Kate Garrett Wells, of
the effect higher education OF women has
had upon their views of matrimonv.
There has been great deal said about
the fitting of woman for her vocation of
wife and mother, but ! have yet to see
any notice of the preparation of man for
his vocation of husband and father. One
would fancy from the deep silence upon
this subject that a man is endowed at
birth with all the attributes of good
sJSband and kind father. Is it not as
aeedful that man should be instructed in
the duties of rtis station, as that woman
shall know those pertaining to her lot?
in married life the wifes happiness de-
pends upon the treatment she receives at
the hands of her husband. How can she
make home happy unless she is so9
Woman is called upon, by reason of her
*, to be livj ng example of all the vir-
les, and is bes ought TO lay aside all per-
,nal traits iniMical to mans perfect
.}aace, rise superior to all human weak
GcSses, and become mans consoler and
comforter, nahIing his home the one spot
on earth most delightful to him. Nothing
is said, howeY er, about the duties men
owe their wives and families. He is not
cDarSeu 10 ma Ike nome so Gear TO his
family that the II true pleasure is there.
Forbearance is, not iuplored for the faults
and shortcomings of the weaker sex.
How many husbands of your acGuaint-
ance ever thin k of the trifiing gift, tho
new book, the labor-saving invention,
occasional tickets to good play, an invi-
tation to walk or ride, the planning OF a
holiday trip, tie sacrifice of some per-
sonal comfort, to the pleasure Of those at
home.
Where is the man who dispenses with
pipe or cigar because his wife finds them
disagreeable . Echo answers In prac-
ticing a close economy, does he give up
any of his indiy idual comforts, or does he
call upon his wi fe to cut down family ex-
penses?
What has been the effect of higher edu-
cation among Rren> upon their views of
matrimony? And why should it have so
different an effect upon women? Does
the higher education change the nature of
humanity? If it makes them more fearful
of entering into the married state. is it
not because of a greater realization of the
duties attendantp
If man Will make himself fit for the
high destiny Of husband and father. he

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good AgrioulturaliLand for $40
to $40 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has re-,
Gently purchaser twelve thousand ceres Of
land ii the heart Of Tehama County, for the
purpose of promoting subdivision and settle
ment. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, to
land of fair average quality, and is offered at
from S1oto $50 per acre, in subdivisions of
DO, so, 120, 160 and $50 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive. They will be sold in
subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay
ment of interest only for three years, at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment of
principal by paying the first of five equal an
nual tnstallments. Thus nospart Of the prin-
cipal is to be paid for three years, and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which to
pay five equal annual installments, with in-
terest at the rate of per cent. per annum,
making payments extending over period of
eight years. Intending purchasers, are as
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land of fair average quality at $40 per acre,
and good agricultural land at7S2O an acre,
with other grades of land at prices to CORE
spond between these figures
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming, and es-
pecially adapted for fruit-growing, cannot be
had in California for less than nom $50 to
500 an acre. An examination of the land
subject of this advertisement will prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $50
an acre, and for qualities grading down TO fair
agricultural land at $40 an acre, on terms of
payment which should make the disposition
OF these lands to actual settlers result easy of
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase of this
body of land was the breaking up OF q large
holding 70" the purpose of promoting its set
,tlement i'll smaller quantities and its devotion
