American Women
as Managers Of Husbands.

This s0-Called management OF husbands
often means a tragedy of housekeeping.
The management of even the best Of men
requires a courage, patience and tact
which no one can exercise who has not
an intuition bordering Oh genius, for
greater than the art of writing Il book
or the art of painting a picture is the
art of living together.
To keep the happiness Of the home I'M
broken is to lay hold on Immortality.
The example to noisy boys and thought
less girls Of n mother who keeps things
moving smoothly. provided the mother
possesses the GcHiuS Of imparting her
knowledge. is TO lay the foundations of
other tactfully conducted homes. and her
genius for managing the next generation
Of husbands and for providing manage
able husbands for the next generation
Of tactful girls reaches forward through
countless years, says Lillian Bell IN
Harper's Bazaar.
This genius Of tactfuneSs is purely
american. for by tact | mean the pure
and wholesome article Of Auglo-SaNou
origin which has nothing to do with the
corrupted and cOrrupting article of GER
tain foreign nations. whose women hav"
the name Of being fascinating through
their knowledge of men.
An American wOman's knowledge of
men is hHilded on universal motherhood,
and is as pure as love itself. That Is
why a good wife infuses a certain ma
ternal quality into her love for her hus-
band. His weakness. Of mind or body.
draws on that peculiar mother love in the
heart Of every good woman, whether she
ever marrieS or not.

A Talk to Girls.

We sometimes say of a woman that she
does her work as well as a man, so that
it cannot be distinguished from a man 5
work. This sounds like praise, but it is
really blame. Something has been lost.
Distinction is the crown of work.
L am no advocate of n narrower life for
woman, but of a life which shall be
broad enough for her TO unfold her own
nature. The worst slavery is that which
makes a woman pretend to be Il man.
The strenuous life for girl is a form
of hysteria. 1t IS a functional disorder.
1t sacrifices strength for spasms.
Suppose she is at college studying.
How shall she get the best intellectual re-
suits: accuracy of perception, breadth Of
vision, delicacy of taste, respect for
truth? BY disregarding the balance of
her physical and mental nature, and
plunging into an intense pursuit of spe-
cial knowledge. fierce competition for
marks and honors and prizes? The
achievement. whatever it may be, will
hardly compensate her Tor u.s. for its
probable cost. Poise is more precious
than penetration. Learning may be a
climb. but wisdom is a growth. The best
that we know Is the harvest of 4 quiet
mind. The sanity of scholarship depends
upon a normal life. The finest woman :
college is college for women. The best
girls in il are never imitation boys

THE OTHER SIDE OF THE DAY.

The far-off hills are very blue as blue as
the painted sky
Where the Silvely fleece clouds never move
while the earth goes drifting by;
While the earth goes drifting idly by. aud
the white sun burns above.
And the heat waves flicker over the grass,
And the bees through the rose-heds pass
ami repaSS;
And In my hammock swing and sigh for
You, and the night aud love,
Under the hills the long tclds lie, and the
still woods stretch between.
And never breath stirS the yellow rye
nor ripplcS the wheat's pale sheen
And the little farms in the hohows seem
to doze to the Groom of the dove;
But the shadows reach from the West at
last,
And the slow-footed hours creep on and
ar" past,
While | In my hammock swing aud dream
Of YOU, and the night. and love.
Oh. tagging minutes that bring joy home
aud swift that bear II away,
How fast we would till the dark to come
With the hours We grudgr the day.
So many wears shall the earth swing on
that our brief bliss recks not of
While our time runs ont like a tale that
is told.
And the warmth of our youth in the dusk
grows cold.
But shall not care II we both drift down
through the long. long night with love

An Old-Fashioned Woman.

No clever, brilliant thinker. she,
with college record and degree;
She has not known the paths of fame.
The world has never heard her name;
Sac walks in Old. lonstrodden ways,
The valleys of che yesterdays.
Home is her kingdom. love is her dover
She seeks no other wand OF power
10 make home sweet. bring heaven near,
no v in q smile and wipe a tear,
And de- her duty day by day
In her own quiet place and way.
Around her childish hearts are twineI.
As round some reverend saint enShrined,
And following hers the childish feet
Are led TO ideals true and sweet,
And find all purity and good
In her diYinest motherhood.
She keeps her faith unshadowed still
God rules the world in good and Ill;
Men in her creed are brave and true,
And women pure as pearls of dew.
And life for her is high and grand,
BY work and glad endeavOr spanned.

City and Village Folk.

This is the time Of year when the little
American village has put on its best bib
and tucker, for company is expected.
The interplay of influence between city
folk and villagers has begun again, with
that freedom of exchange which helps
to mutual respect and aids in giving
solidarity TO the American character.
Not that either class mas entire under
standing of the other or is likely to give
up its cherished prccOnceptons or Gus
toms. The fads and follies of the cit
iZen are respected with quiet tolerance
and some wonder as part of the bargain,
while, on the other hand the countryinaIi
comes in occasionally for a good hu-

which is in proportion to their open-

their hosts more united than in common

The Fat Woman and the shirtwaist.

The fat woman, like the leanest citi-
zen of our great republic, has Il right TO
life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
But why, oh, why can she not con.
tribute, negatively mt least, to the visual
comfort of her fellows? Why does she
not follow that great law of political
economy which declared that the good OF
the individual should he subordinated to
the good of the community and array
herself in such wise that if she does noJ
cause pleasure she shall nj least not pro-
duce pain? Why. when she selects col
orS for hot-Weather wear. should she
pick ont reds and puppies rather than
cooler tints: and why. if she must wear
a shirt waist, should she not first coniinc
her redundancy within Il well-ftted I'M
derWaist? Even when any one is as hot
as she looks, surely n single thickness of
ralment more or less cannot mako 50
very much difference.
1t is the fat woman who should bring
all the powers of her mind 20 bear upou
the great problem of dress. and. by one
of the bitter ironieS of fate, saws Col
liers Weekly, it is the fat woman who
gives the matter least study. All beauty
and symmetry are usually outraged by
the bare fact of her wearing a shirt
waist of any sort To her il should he
as temptation of the Evil One, to be
fought against with prayer and labor.
Lacking the strength to resist the lure.
she should compromise with sin and
choose black or hue dark stripes for her
waists, and have them cut i'm Il way that
VIII indicate, If only remotely, what Ma
! tule once meant should be a waist line
Long effects should he diligently sought
after. The belt should match the waist.
not the skirt. and should connect with
the latter in Il few selected spots If pos
sible.
