Cultivate Time For Leisure.

There is one rule that should be inn
pressed upon every young wife at the
very beginning Of her married life
that is. 10 cultivate time for leisure.
Housewives are frequently heard 70
compalin that they have no time 10 dc
this or that ueedful work. and that
they will breathe more freely when
the children have grown out of the
way. when the winters or the sum.
mers work is done. and so on. With
such ii would seem that time is always
borrowed. with a view of paying IL
back in the future.
Ii would be idle 10 lay down a Ger.
tain set Of rules by which wives and
mothers may rid themselves of this
evil genius Of haste and unrest. yet we
would earnestly endeavor 10 persuade
the unhappy victims that the fault is
most always their own. and springs
from the very spirit in which they go
about their work; that. in truth. hurry
is an evil spirit much 10 be dreaded.
Especially among women Of moder.
ate means, the wives of struggling
men. is the habit Of always being in n
hurry observable. Good housekeeping
and hurry should be utterly divorced
one from the other. II is a fact OF com.
mon experience that the most success.
full housewives are the least hurried.
for haste Is an open transgressor of
the law of order and order is certainly
the foundation of good housekeeping.
And here We find the secret OF n restful
life, one which has freedom without
the never-ending push from behind.
Besides the spirit Of order, which
should lead every housekeeper 10 ar
range her work so IL will not always
be behind her, and the courage which
enables her 10 refuse to do what she
cannot do satisfactorily, there is an
other element Of good housekeeping,
which, indeed. is but the true spirit OF
order and Of courage combined-the
resolute reserve OF leisure.
1t is absolutely necessary for every
mistress of a home and family to have
and jealously guard some period OF
time each day which shall be given to
leisure-the leisure of perfect rest-for
she will find that in this age OF hurry
the woman Of moderate leisure is the
woman who will best discharge her
duty 10 herself, her family and society
