BUSINESS PARTNERSHIP.

A BUSINESS PARTNERSHIP.
'4Thine" and mine" should be stricken
from the vocabulary of husband and
wife. The words should never enter a
discussion of the transactions conducted
by the corporation in which they are the
sole stockholders. Ours should be the
name under which are deposited the
joint earnings. 1t matters not whether
the feminine partner of the firm con-
tributes wages earned in the business
field or savings gained through the ap,
plication of strict economy in the con-
Quoting of the household.
This rule need not be applicable only
to material possessions. Fame, in fact
come to either after marriage, should
not be considered separate earning. A
man and woman in perfect accord of
aims would naturally strive together for
the prize.
When won it would equally belong to.
both. Marriage is presumably for mu-
tUaI good. If there be any dffferentia-
ton of possessions the matrimonial con-
tract had better be dissolved, for it
places either the man or the woman in
the position of a ''suppHeant'' rather
than a "sharer."
There are wives who retain exclusive
E1SIIIS VI Tile dCcEQlQS from the
exercise of their business talents. But it
amounts to the same thing in the end,
for no true heIpmeet would refuse to
come to the aid of a husband temper

in the path of her quest after individual
success. No loving man does.

PATIENCE WITH THE LIVING.

Sweet friend, when thou and I are gone
Beyond earth's weary labor,
When small shall be our need of grace,
From eomrade or from neighbor,
Passed all the strife, the toll, the care,
And done with all the signing,
What tender truth shall we have gained,
Alas, by simply dying?
Then lips too chary of their praise
VIII tell cur merits over,
And eyes too swift our faults to see
Shall no defect discover.
Then hands that would not lift a stone
Where stones were thick to cumber
Our steep hill path will scatter flowers
Above our piIlowed slumber.
Sweet friend, perehanee both thou and I,
Ere love is past forgiving,
Should take the earnest lesson home
Be patient with the living.
Today's repTessed rebHSe may save
Our binding tears tomorrow;
Then patience, cen when keenest edege
May whet a nameless sorrowt
IT'S easy to be gentle when
3 Deaths silence shanes our clan1or
And easy to discern the best
Through memory,s mystic glamour,
But wise it were for thee and me,
Ere love IS past forgivlng,
To take the tender lesson home
Be patient with the living.

ESSAY ON PEOPLE.

A -year-old school girl submitted the
following composition on People,"
People are composed of girls and boys,
also men and women. Boys are no good
till they grow up and get married. Men
who don't get married are no good either.
Girls are young women who will be la
dies after they graduate. Woman was
made after man and Uncle Bob says the
has been after him ever since. The Lord
looked disappointed after he had made
Adam. but he said to himself: If at first
you don't succeed, try, try again.. So
he tried again and made Eve; then he
was satisfied Boys are an awful bother
they want everything they see except
soap. If + had my way half the boys
in the world would be girls and the other
half dolls. My ma is a woman and my
pa is man. A woman is a grown-up
