ter1ng phrase which would bring 90
much gladness to the hearer.
.
Nothing SO eats into the fabric Of
nome content as continual Indifference.
f'ault-finding and nagging follow swift
footed on the heels of this sin against
love. Praise, appreciation, out-spoken
affection and demonstrativeness are
wonderful helpers in promoting real
JOY In married life.
Perhaps it is trite to remark that it
Is much better economy to give flow
ers to the living than to strew flowers
on grave. If the dead could return
they would sometimes be surprised to
hear the estimation in which they were
held while here by the bereaved, who
celebrate their virtues and mourn their
loss, in terms that only the superla-
tive can express. Don't let us keep our
superlatives for the hour when we sit
alone longing for the touch of a van
lshed hand, and the sound of a voice
that Is still. We find the means and
the money to build monuments. Let
us find both to make one another hap
py when there is no question of monu-
ments, but only of everyday living in
obscure places where we do our work,
bring up our children and earn the
days wages.
After all, what is better than to
earn the days wages honorably, to do
the best we can with what we have and
to be kind to those who are nearest
to us, those of our own blood, who
bear our own name? Whether we
serve in the lowlands or the highlands
we get the soldiers. pay at the days
end. It is in our power to be sullen
and morose, or to be amiable and
genial. Compliments help on the lat.
ter condition and blessedly exercise
the former.
Says Robert Louis Stevenson, when
you have married your wife you would
think that you were got upon hilltop
and might begin to go downward by
an easy slope, but you have only end
| ed courting to begin marriage. Failing
| in love and winning love are often
difficult tasks to overbearing and re
bellious spirits, but to keep in love
| is also business of some importance
| to which both man and wife must
bring kindness and good will. The
true love story commences at the altar.
