The KEYNOTE Of Family Happiness.

" 1t is a mean and cruel thing TO be un-
gentle TO ones own The soIl does not
come forth to be roughly handled. The
keynote of family happiness is liberation
and cheerfulness. Do not air your griev
ances; put up with faults, foibles and
shortcomings. We are none of us per-
feet, not even yourself. If your wife, or
daughter. or sister, does not come up to
the mark does not fulfil your ideal of
what she should be, if she can do moth
ing more for you. she can al least love
you! And do you ever stop to think, oh!
complaining man, what kind of place
your home, or the world would he, with
out that love-" Do not learn their
sweetness by their silence, nor their light
by their decay. John Ruskin.
