There is nothing that makes man
feel so sore and aggrievcd as wife's
old love affairs. when. in reality. he
should be proud of her popularity,
and consider it a compliment TO his
own good taste that she should have
been admired and vet the fact is that
not one man in thousand can stand
the mention of wife's old sweet
hearts with any degree of amiability.
to say nothing of equanimity. On the
contrary. it generally has about the
same soothing effect on his temper
that the Haunting red flag has on the
gentleman with horns who makes
things lively in the Spanish arena.
An old faded photograph, bundle
of old letters, faded and suspicious Of
tears. has created a panic in many
an otherwise happy home.
\ man always wants to feel that the
woman of his choice has never loved
and will never love any one but his
own precious self, and that is the rea-
son that lie asks about five thousand
and ninety eight times during Il three
weeks courtship: did YOU never real
ly love any other MANI" And if You
be wise and want him very badly, you
will never make any discriminating ad-
missions.
Never. no never become confidential
and show husband old love letters.
In the first place, it is not exactly
honorable, because when man offers
his love to woman he pays her the
highest compliment in his power;
therefore, if he has really loved her,
and she could not return his love. n
regard for his feelings and n proper
appreciation of the compliments i'm
piled in singing her out for his love.
should make her keep inviolate any
expression of love- If she has merely
trifled, it Is additional reason for Sc
crecy.
Then, too. more self-intcrcsted mo-
tive should control her and keep the
matter secret.
A husband is rarely favorably in
clined towards man who has ever
made love TO his wife, even though II
may have been before he came on the
scene. He has always q sort of in
jured feeling whenever his name is
mentioned. and while he may not say
very much. yet the fact remains that
he does feel injured. SO it is better
for woman TO forget.-New Haven

Don't scold Chilhren.

The mother who has acquired the
habit of scoldlng her children thereby
shows that she is not competent tC
train them in obedience. For scold'
ing Is a sign of weakness. 1t indicates
that the person who has it has not
mastered herself and that she knows
not how TO rule others.
The scolding parent is usually al
unreasonable being, irritable, impul
sive, quick-tempered. hot-headed. She
judges first and calls for the evidence
afterward. She acts as If her little
sons and daughters should, even be
fore she instructs them, distinguish
right from wrong, and should, ever
before they have seen anything of life
have the knowledge than can come
only from experience.
Her first care in the correction OF
this habit is to control herself. Let
her give no order that she does not
intend to enforce. Let her tell hel
children to do thing only once, and
let her resolve not to sc0ld them.-In

Eresh Air and ExerCIre.

B2fore putting on your clothing slip
on loose gown and take few breG tll-
ing exercises. First open II window
and stand near it, being careful TO
avoid draught. Draw in ten full.
deep. long breaths, inhaling through
the lips. Place the tips of the fingers
on the chest and note that it rises to
its full capacity of expansion as the
air is being drawn in and sinks inward
as far as possible as the air is being
exhaled. Ten inhalations will be suf-
ficient to put you in good form and
good humor, but twenty will be twice
as beneficial. This will, start the blood
pulsating through the body. and you
will feel warm glow the moment you
have ceased.
TO dress properly for housework it is
not necessary to discard your stays.
Stays, if Worn rightly, are not injurl-
ous. and If not worn properly should
never be worn at all. They should be
loose. BY this l do not mean merely
comfortable, but roomy. so that you
can almost turn them completely about
the torso. They should be low in the
bust and should be held down by gar
ters sewed into the base of the front.
In this way they will serve as a sup
port for the skirts. The skirts them
selves should be light and neat and
short. The bodice should be grace
fully and comfortably low at the
throat, thus giving the neck an oppor-
tunity to develop. But the most i'm
Eortant item of your morning toilette
is the care and arrangement of the
hair. Nothing so fascinates or disgusts
man as woman's hair Curl pa
pers will drive the most faithful Amer
lean husband to the club. while curls
will lure him wherever they may go.
Give the hair at least twenty strokes
with stiff brush every morning to
make it silky and plant, then arrange
it neatly and becomingly.-P
