A well known Rockland lawyer. who
is also the owner Of rather fine yacht
has earned the regard Of many friends
this season by taking them on enjoy
able trips up and down the bay. A
frequent companion on these sailing ex-
petitions has been another we'll known
lawyer. few days ago they set sail
for point several miles down the bay.
and bowled along in a manner that set
their pulses bounding and set the
owner to recountiny his nautical ex-
pioits Then the wind suddenly died
out and left them becalmed. An hour
or two went by and the occupants Of
the boat remembered important en-
gagemensS ashore. There was consid-
cradle ,fretting and Tuning and the
yachtsnen were brought to stern
recognition of the fact that the laws
delays do not have monopoly. Plead
ings. arguments and appeals were of no
avail here. Finally. however. a gasp
lene launch put i'll appearance. and the
disguised yachtsmen did not scruple
to be taken in tow. When the familia :
lines Of the Rockland waterfront hove
in view the yacht owners nautical
pride re-asserted itself and he asked
that the yacht be cast adrift. This was
done and the two lawyers rowed into
the harbor trusting that their nautical
m'shap would remain a dark secret
But it didn't.

IDEAL IN HOUSEKEEPING.
Many of the old Customs, and Con dftions Are Passing Entire-
 ly Away.

A generation ago to be an ideal house. keeper was the chief ambition of almost every woman No girl desired fairer fate than to be placed at the head of household with 3 good and loving hus- band to supply all her wants and make her the mistress and the queen of his heart and his home. In most cases, says the Peoria Herald Transcript, the girl who started housekeeping had more or less experienEe in theart under the tuition of her moth4. Sheloved to decorate and beautify the house w0ich was to be her home during the rest of her earthly pil- grimage. She loved to create delicacies for her husband and her children, and, disguise it as we may, much of the af- lection she received was dueSntirely to her skill as homemaker. When her children grew up around her this kind and sympathetic mother and the pantry As they grew older the ties only grew the stronger. When they acquired families of their own the old hoAIpstead, with its abundance of good thtAgs, still had attractions for them. The kind old mother was still their best friend. She knew all the difnculti0 they had to en. counter in starting homes of thedr own, and her advice and sympathy were worth more to them than gold. The grandchildren came to venerate her as sort of venerable goddess, and when she finally went away from the home circle she left vacancy which could never be filled.
 But we are assured with every symp- tom of rejoicing that these conditions are passing; that women have been emancipated; that ir the future they are to be the rival, instead of the helpmate, of man, and that they must combine to enforce their just demands against the hostility of the male sex. This is non- sense pure and simple. It may be true that there are more mannish women in this generation than there were in the last. It is unfortunately true that a larger proportion of the female popula- tion has been forced to be self-support- ing, but it is not true that women enjoy the so-caned liberty" which goes with toiling for a living.
 The home instinct Is too deeply planted in the heart of women to be re moved by the effects of generation of club work. It will never be removed. A few women may go after strange gods. but the natural, wholesome girl will still find her highest ideal of happiness in good husband and cozy home. The clubs may succeed in making such homes Impossible to few men and women by making the young women feel that they have more important work in tho world than the prosaic duty of home making, but among the masses of the American people the mother will con- tinue to be the bond which unftes the unities of that holy institution the fam ! fly, and she will continue in this exalted role until the end of all things.

 Great heavens!" he cried, in wild alarm. Perhaps you are ill. Tell me. is 1t so, sweetheart?"
 "No," she said, through fresh burst of tears, it is not that"
 A look of deep perplexity overspread his handsome visage, and, pushing her back so that he could look down into her big, beautiful, tear-dimmed eyes, hs asked:
