Feline amenities show themselves
most forcibly Mt committee meetings.
There was one of these latter gathered
together to discuss charity bazaar.
The chairman smiled swcctly upon the
artists wife and said:
"You'll get your husband TO let us
have some little thing of his for the art
table, will you not Mrs. Mahlstick"

always easily managed, my dear"
"Ah, but take him after one of your
nice dinners aud then put In n word

The Time when Help, Kindness and

1t is during the formative period, the
time when Il man is seeking to get

when even the slightest aid is great

1t Is In childhood that pleasures

with their little troubles and worries
that seem To them so great, genuine
interest In their growing hopes, their
vague, unproportioncd dreams and
ycarnings. Let us put ourselves into
their places. view the world through
their eyes so that we may gently cor

our greater wisdom. Such trlfies Will

BUOYANT MIDDLE AGE.
1t Dn1Iics Jauntiiy With Youth In
These Progressive Days.

These Progressive Days.
Half century ago Il man of forty
i've was regarded almost elderly, and
woman of the same age MAS expected
to have long since cut herself adrift
from all ties binding her TO her youth
and TO assume the appearance and de-
pertinent of Il staid, exemplary matron.
All this has changed in n particularly
Interesting WY. of which the promi-
nent feature Is seeming contradic-

day Is us knowing MS was the six year
old of half II century ago and the ten

spects quite as much man as was his
grandfather Mt eighteen one might nat
urally expect that in due graduation the
modern middle aged man should he old
beyond his years. But such Is not the
case.
Middle age, SO far from hurryiuG on
into scnilty. so far even from standing
still. would seem actually TO have
stepped backward and marched along
side of youth. There IL II jauntlness, a
buoyanCy, an elasticity, about the mid
die age of today at which our fathers
would have shaken their heads as un-
seemly. The gulf which once separated
the middle aged parent from his chill
dren has been filled up. The curtain
which shrouded the middle aged man
generally from the eyes of youtR1and
which caused him to be regarded with
respect IL not With awe has been lifted,
and in obedience To the same influences
which have made the schoolmastcr the
friend of the schoolboy and tho regt
