a fat husband seldom worries himself
about the management of the household
He trusts everything 10 his wife. pays

signed for an easy-going domestic life
Nature has endowed him with many
qualities she has denied to the lean man
She has made the fat man naturally in

not agree with the theory that stout men
make the best husbands; but if You look
closely mt the men who dispute the the

If You Would Be Welcome.

Two things. each of which is unim

1t is human nature that the visitor
should like one member of tue family
better than the others, and within rea.
son ii is proper to express this hiking.
But to do il TO the extent that makes
others feel de trop when they are about
is very bad breeding. In spite of the
fact that one might prefer to talk alone
with ones particular friend, include the
other who drop in. DO not discuss peo-
pie or things that the newcomers do not
know. or do it only after explaining, 50
that they can follow the conversation,
says the Detroit Free Press.
Accept very few invitations without
your hostess. As Il rule it should not
be done at all. but in case of having a
very old friend whom one has not seen
for a long time, it is permissible to go to
lunch or to tea without the hostess, Even
then the old friend should do something
soon to which the hostess is invited. too.

inherited

Some people think that because
their parents died with consumption,
they are doomed by The same plague.
This is not so. Cases of inherited
consumption are very rare. The real
reason why so many in a family suf-
fer from tuberculosis is to be found
elsewhere than in heredity.
The afflicted member does not know
the necessity for personal cleanliness,
for religiously collecting and burning
all matter spit up. The use of the
ordinary pocket handkerchief and the
washing Of it in the family laundry
is a constant source of danger. Rice
paper handkerchiefs or old linen
should be used and then burned.
The person himself is almost harm
less. 1t is only the lack of care in
scattering the genus that makes him
a dangerous companion. These bad
practices are usually due to ignorance.
1t is not necessary to isolate the pa
tient for the protection of the family.
Each person not affected should
breathe fresh air, exercise out of
doors, eat simple food, battle daily
and sleep eight hours each night.
This will increase the body's vital
power and resist the deadly genus
which may be breathed in. The rest
of the family being thus fortified, the
patient should cooperate in the pro-
lection.
Let him study to prevent the germs
from heinz spatterad or
through the house. Then let all CO.
operate in the fresh air cure of the
patient, and he may live in peace and
pleasure, gradually fighting his way
back to health, and in no way dan
gerous to his friends.
When every consumptive intelli-
gently ~co-operates with the family
and physician, the day of inherited
consumption" will be passed.
