learn that Miss Horace Greedy Perry,
the talented young newspaper woman,
lies dangerously ill, awaiting an opera

What do you think the beautiful
Word wife comes from? Il Is the
great word in which the English and
Latin languages conquer the French
and Greek. | hope the French will
some day get word for II instead Of
their femme. But what do You think
1t comes from7 The great value Of
the Saxon word is that they mean
something. Wife means weaver
You must be either housewives or
house moths, remember that In the
deep sense you must either weave
mems fortunes and embrolder them
or iced upon them and bring them to
decay. Wherever a true wife comes
home Is always around her. The
stars may be overhead, the glowworm
In the nights cold grass may be the
hre at her feet; but home is where
she Is, and for noble woman IL
stretches far around her better than
houses eeiled with cedar or painted
with yernilfon, shedding fts quiet light
for those who are homeless. This I
believe, is the womans true place and
power. "-Ruskin.

neatly dressed woman. She does not

seams, nor any buttons missing from
her boots. Her veil does not reveal a

Not many women show their tidiness
in all these little details, but it is a
pleasure to meet the girl or woman

groomed." The cloth gown OF such a
woman fits her without crease. and
there is neither speck nor spot on it.
Her linen collar and cuffs are snowy

vision Of the red Indian. 1t is ascer-
tanned by practical tests that he can
see no farther and no more distinctly
than the average white man; but his
manner of life has made him more OBJ
servant of things about him, and more

bottom, receiving the princely salary

him to join his staff. You need
