lied at the forthcoming meeting. In Its
constitution will most probably be em-
bodied the principles at present held by
the society.
From every part OF the country ever
since the initial step OF the congress
the board OF management has received
offers, suggestions and advice of all
sorts. All OF this that was worthy has
been courteously and carefully consid-
cred. but in the main the lines previ-
ously laid down by Mrs. Birney have
been followed.
Not that / feel myself to be wiser
than Others" the president said recent
ly in personal interview, "but some-
times these suggestions come from peo-
pie who do not realize that the ques-
tons that they are now considering for
the first time or the new thought that
has just flashed across their minds is all
old ground to me. Every detail of the
congress, every possible contingency,
the pros and cons of each question, were
infinitely and carefully thought out
months. years. before the idea was
mooted at all. The matter brought to
me for consideration, by some good
friend of the congress perhaps. is very
likely one over which ] have pondered
through sleepless nights long months
ago and which. having been thought
out exclusively, has been RELOCATED
to the regions of impractical or at pres
ent unwise procedure"
1t is useless to try to reform social
abuses, to stem the torrent of moral
evil that is deluging the world. unless
the fountain head be reached. Follow
the torrent back to the little stream,
the little stream to the source. to the
one who is the head OF all society be-
cause the head of the home. the moth
er. Teach her world principles. world
duties. world needs. and she will re-
spond and through her the whole social
world. Such is the idea of the moth
ers' congress. and such being the idea
society bids 1t godspeed.

Mistakes Men Make In Wooing.

Nature has not been lavish in the
amount of tact dealt out to the mascu.
line half of the population. The great
mistake is to imagine all girls nre alike
and that what pleases one must OF me-
cessity please the other.
The majority of men make love ms
though their inamorata were a kind OF
fort which can only be captured by
strategy. This is all very well some-
times. only unfortunately. girls are
quick witted-much sharper than you
are yourselves. messieurs!-and II they
discover the strategy either they VIII
begin to laugh at you. which will DO
absolutely fatal to your hopes. or else
grow angry, on the whole nearly as UNI
desirable an occurrence.
All girls hate to be made conspicuous
especially when their minds are not
quite made up. And the man in love
Ia rather like the ostrich in his opinion
that because he Is too much occupied to
sec the rest of the world the rest OF the
world does not see him. So he hangs
over the object OF his affections, never
takes his eyes Off her or talks to any
one else.
