THE MAN IN HIS HOME.
It Is he who strikes the keynote for Right
or Wrong Living.

or Wrong Living.
"The seclusion of home gives to
man certain freedom and attendant
privileges which no other place in the
world affords, and it is right that 1t
should" says. the Ladies' Home Jour-
nal. But it is not right that this
freedom and those privileges should be
abused to the disadvantage of the wife
Too many men seem to have the idea
that they can drop into constant dis
consulate and churlish moods at home
with their wives which in any other
place and by any other person would
not be tolerated. It is when man Is
within the walls of his home that he IS
himself Then it is that he should be
at his best When a man gives the
best that is within him to those closest
to him, his home will be the ideal place
that he wishes it to be. No man has a
right to expect from his wife what he
on his part does not give her. II he
wants sympathy he must give her his
consideration. If man lacks the ele-
ment of consideration he should culti-
vate it, and cultivate it not for the
benefit of his friends, but for those in
and of home Consideration should be-
gin at home. not in the homes of
friends, as it often does, and ends there,
too. The atmosphere which man
creates in his home by example be-
comes the rule by which his children
live. The husband and father strikes
the keynote for right or wrong living.

An effective pair of andirons for hall

a village workman who, at his forge,
bent the bars and bands of irons into

adopted from pair brought from an

originally used to support the spit
