II is n common experience of American
tourists to be recognized as Americans
when in England. and the readiness of
the English in letting one know that lac

America is often annoying, no matter
how patriotic one may be, For this rpa-

weary of having things explained to
them as though they We're foreigners and
unable to understand the English IAN

of something in the window which
caught her fancy; he insisted that the
clerk would instantly class his voice rs

Clean Cellars. Less Illness.

Whether the children are robust and
delicate, whether the grown people are
healthy or grrntmg invalids depends
much upon the housewife. Often Gel
lar is full of death germs
If the cellar Is damp, see to it that ii
is properly drained If you own the
house, il is worth the cost many times
over. If You rent. make the landlord
attend to it. or move elsewhere. When
renting. always first inspect the cellar,
always be sure of the cellar \ cellar

Dorothy North.
If there are windows in the cellar,
open them frequently to let Il draught
through to keep the air fresh If there
are no windows open the cellar doors
frequently and let the foul air out.
Keep the windows washed. SO that
the light can get through. Many cellar
windows look like smoked glass. Open
the door for light if it can be obtained
in tits way.

A Woman's Advice.

y woman who has had very unhap-
by married life gives this advice to young
women:

The woman who permits her heart to
rule her head makes n sad mista Ike.
If Il girl loves Il man no matter how
dissipated or selfish he may he. she
plunseS into motrimony with her eyes
closed,
No woman should ever DEPEND entirely
on her husband for happiness, 1t is
folly and leads always Ia heartache A
married woman should have a life apart
from Her husband.
Let her keep sweet aud true and 10y
able. but beyond certain point she
should not venture. lest She lose her IN
dividuality in her husbands. with the re
suit that he will impose upon her.
Beware of man with an ungovern-
able temper; and almost all men are en-
lowed with this quality.
Shun the man who drinks to excess.
for it is il habit that leads to wretched-
ness.
Avoid also the man who is selfish. the
man who considers always his own in

All men are tickle and it depends on
the wife's power To hold them.--New
