There is no justification for such an

is worse than the disease, Wife-beat-
ing destroys the self-respect of the man
who is guilty of the act and also of the

'Touchy" persons abound, and they
are uncomfortable persons to them
selves and to others. Take them in
the home; they put everybody under
constraint and create a cold and eau
tious atmosphere, in which the chanc-
es of imaginary offences are indefi-
nitely increased. Take them in the
church; they occupy precious time
and exhaust strength which should be
used in promoting the good cause,
and force pastor and officers to cod
die and manage" them. Sometimes
it is temperament, oftener it is an
undue sense of selfimportance which
is manifested IN loneliness.
With the best intentions in the
world, innocent people find their To-
quacity, Or their taciturnity, as the
case may be, tor tured into insult by
these "touchyn nuisances. Thus life
is nightmared by their jealousy and
suspicious, work is hindered, and
honest folks are kept busy in repair
ing the mistakes of this wrong heart
ed class. Don't be ''touchy.'
