A few pointers for married women:
Remember you are married to a man and
not a god: be prepared for imperfec-
tions. Be companion to your husband
If he is wise man: and if he is not, try
and make him become your companion.
Raise his standard; do not let him lower
yours. Once in while let him have
the last word; it will crafty him and
be no particular loss to you. Anti
cipate the discovery by your husband
that your "only women;' If you were
not he would not care about you. Let
him know more than you do once and
while: it keeps up his self-respect, in
you will be none the worse for admit
ting that you are not infallible.

Those who achieve most are not always
accounted greatest by the people whose
collective Judgement make up public
opinion. Many politician whose life
is given up to trickery and whose days
and nights are spent in scheming, re-
ceives more praise than the unosteuta-
tious individual whose honest work and
genius make possible for mankind
achievements impossible before. But
for all that the world is gradually
coming to better appreciation OF what
really constitutes a great man. In the
old days of kingly rule, when ''the
divine right" passed unquestioned, and
the voice of the people was but an
indistinct murmur that rarely reached
80 high as to disturb throne, the
popular hero, the great man, was the
ruler, the master whose bidding was
Imperative, whose right was tradition,
and whose authority was that given by
might. But with the spread Of repub-
lican ideas, with the growth of the
belief that 1t is the people who are
masters, the worlds ideas has been
changing, until it is now more nearly
appr0ximates that Of the Great Teacher
who bade the greatest be servant and
the chief minister.
