If there happens to be some one near

suffers. 1t is pounded instead Of brush,

One of the sine that Destroy Home
Comfort,


One Of the sins that Destroy Home
Comfort,
There Is one exceedingly disagree
able habit into which some people fall
without seeming to notice It. This is
nagging. They cannot say what they
have to say and then let 1t alone. but
keep pecking and pecking at It on ev-
cry occasion and II occasions do not
arise naturally, they make them. In
this nagging, sarcasm, or Irony, bear
leading part. A thing may be said
once or twice as a pleasant raillery, in
genial humor. but when repeated
over aud over 1t ceases to be fun. 1t
then cuts. Sarcasm Is two-edged
tool; 1t cuts and wounds the one at
whom It IL aimed. and 1t irritates and
roughens the one who uses It. Ii is
dangerous tool for one TO use who
wishes to be either kind or just. 1t
comes easily TO the lips and the In
tellect takes a certain kind of delight
in aptness, ingenuity or sharpness. Its
use grows on one. AT least the habit
becomes 50 habitual that Il Is used
unconsciously. However good-natured
one seems to take II. 1t Is almost GER
tain to leave sting; there Is wound
that hurts. Struggle against Il as one
viii, there win often be an impression
carried that some part Of It Is meant In
earnest.
Too often do all Of us wound the
feelings OF others by carelessness in
speech. We cannot too carefully
guard ourselves against the nagging
habit. II rasps and wears out the
best Of dispositions Let us endeavor
ever to make our speech kindly, even
when obliged to find fault. "A blow
with u word strikes deeper than a
blow with sword" We shall never
err by speaking too kindly. These
naggers are often kind at heart and
would not willingly wound another.
They have formed the habit uncon.
sciously and are not aware Of how
frequently they indulge in that kind
Of talk. 1t does not occur to them
that any one may take further mean
ing than they have meant, or that any
part Of it will be taken seriously. 1t
Is unavoidable, however, that this Is
so.

The nagging habit Is the real reason
why some women find 1t difficult to re-
tain servants. 1t Is for the sharpness
Of their tongues that some really ex-
cellent people are avoided and disliked
in society. People dread the tongue
lashings that slip 80 easily from the
lips and without real malice, but they.
nevertheless, cut deep. Let us put a
guard on ourselves and see that this
habit of sarcastic speech and nagging
is not ours. The Chinese have a say
ing that "a mans conversation is the
mirror Of his thoughts" There Is
truth in 1t. II we habitually talk In
a certain way, we grow to be that way
in character.-Mllwaukee Journal.
