and beneath a gentleman's dignity.
DO honest work and keep your con-
science clear. The trouble about this
''ronying" business is, the more you
ride on the work done by others the
more you have to ride; and before
you graduate you will find yourself
astride that ungainly old elephant
called fraud and his movements will
make you dizzy and you might fall.
If you don't tumble then, don't for

Her boy is hers still even if he is

anxiously for your letters, and they
are as rays of sunshine penetrating

sacrificing for you and the best and

them is to do your duty.

" Wives who Fail"

Dear Aunt Jennie Elizabeth M.
Gilmer says that the majority of wo-
men fail as wives. No wonder, be-
cause they have double burden to
carry. Besides the necessity of hid
ing her own worries the wife must
be ready to listen first to the itemized
account of the worries and vexations
that try the very soul of her good
man, until the last spark Of good
humor has died out of his manly
bosom, and he is powerless to rekindle
the fires of mirth and happiness. un-
til he has basked awhile in the sun
shine of her cheerfulness and been
soothed by the music of her laughter.
Then when tranquility has been re-
stored to the shattered nerves of
him who kindly and gladly provides
for all her whims and necessities,
she may cautiously venture to inform
him of such of her worries as re-
quire his attention, lest the broken

who never see what their wife needs.
He means to be good and kind, and
yet she has to ask for every penny;
in fact, everything she gets. Very
few women like to ask and beg for
everything they need. So when it
comes to that, woman gets to the
"don't-care-place."
Again, how many men ever think
of hiring help for the wife as long
as she can drag, and he will get out
of ''sorts" if he comes in and finds
his dinner not ready, his wife tired
and cross. Perhaps she has done her
work with her fretful baby in her
arms. Oh! how he could Tighten her
burdens, bring a smile to her face. if
he would greet her with kiss, tell
her she was the best wife in the
world. She would feel like a young

him lose his money and he will soon

On the Klinard Controversy.

Dear Aunt Jennie :-Once more l
knock for admittance, but come with
my head full of rambling thoughts.
l presume that "Jack Klinard" and
young Spunk" are neither one mar
ried men. Now, boys, you know that
men don't go as neat ("after they are
married'') at home every day Q
speak of farmers and farmers wives)
as they did when they went court
ing" No, indeed, they don't; they
can't be dressed up and work. And
no sensible woman expects it. The
same is true of a woman. (But it is
only limited number who "go with
hair uncombed or skirts resembling
a coal pit"). If she has to do her
own house-work she hasn't the time
to make herself pretty as she did
when she was a girl. There are not
many farmers Gin the busy season"
that would have patience with wo-
man who would get up in the morn
ing and primp as if she were looking
for her sweetheart before she starts
breakfast, making it 9 o'clock for
him to get to his work.
/ can't see any harm in a woman
wearing a loose dress doing her kitch-
en- work. No man would do such hot
work and keep on his coat or collar
either. And as for a woman going
barefooted, not many will go without
shoes if they have a comfortable pair
to wear. But there are so many men

Aunt Jennie's Letter.

A Young man came by to see me
to-day on his way to school, and /
was reminded that he is one of thou
sands of young people who will for
the ifst time leave the dear home
nest with its hallowed influences to
trv their personality in the broad
world of companionship in the rela-
tions of fellow students. Are you
what you have appeared to be or
have you been waiting the oppor-
tuntiy to show that you really are
an entirely different person? Have
YOU decided for youself that you will
adhere to the right, let come what
NAV, or are you undecided and simply
waiting the influence of some other
fellow to carry you along with the
drift wood of school-life? Do you
intend to be a man or simply a fell
lw? VIII your influence be good or
bad!
| fancy that you think that mas
much as you are "newish" you will
not have much influence, certainly
not the first session. Now, here is
where you make your mistake. Do
you think for a moment that you
can associate with others for a year
even in the school-room and evade
observation! If you do, you will find
that you are mistaken. Of course
you have sense enough to know that
the professors are too busy to pat
you on the shoulder every time they
happen to see you. There are others
besides yourself who have enlisted
for success or failure and they, too.
might expect the same familiar and
encouraging pat.
Don't expect too much pie in
school. You will not find it on every
table in real life, and. besides, "hard
tack" is good for the digestion some
times.
Don't dress too fine; it will give
you the appearance of being above
your fellows, and hig heels trip peo-
pie oftentimes.
Don't brag about what you can do.
Some day they will find out that with
out your telling them. When the
other fellow brags, remember who he
Is and it will not be long until you
know why he did it.
Be prudent in all things and lessen
regrets for after years. Heed all ad
vice from the faculty. Remember
that they have travelled over the
path on which you have Just started

window pane let in cold air and give
him pneumonia, to say nothing of the
danger of diphtheria to which the
children might be exposed. She her
lself must, of necessity, be immune
to such diseases as might be caused
by leaky shoes or threadbare gar
ments. She must gallop through her
recital or she may upset his tired
nerves. again. She must not shake
any red flags in his presence nor
tread upon the gouty toes of his
prejudicies. She must not have any
pet Sins, but be as pure as the driven
snow, neat as a new pin, and sweet
as half-blown rose, sparkling with
dew in the morning sunshine. She
must fairly bubble with merriment,
whether the housemaid and cook sud
denly depart or the stove-pipe choose
to fall at the wrong time. She must
sparkle with wit and humor, provided
her electric shafts demolish none of
his towers.
No wonder that the Lord made her
of doubly refined material, when He
foresaw what would be required of
her. She must have the strength of
adamant, the scintillations of the dia-
mond, the sweetness of the rose, the
purity of gold, and a symmetrical
form to which must be added the per-
fection of neatness, else she is doom
ed to fail as wife, because a chain
is only as strong as it's weakest link.
Women who prefer humorous books
and comic parers, musical extrava-
ganza and rollicking farces, are not
the women sought for as wives by
men possessing a modicum of good
common sense. No, their gayety must
be truly refined in order to captivate
really sensible men; and what wo-
man desires to be tied to a fool by
the "apron strings" of law? A wo-
man must gratefully accept an occa-
sional car-fare, and, in return, must
steam herself over the hot fire for it
for hours upon hours SO that her lord
and master may be provided with
delicious meals-for the way to his
heart lies across Cor through) his
stomach. The women who angle with
honeyed words and batteries are the
very ones to shake red rags and raise
howls when they are hooked; to pre-
cipitate floods and complain when
they are drerched. A woman who
treats a man, either before of after
marriage, as though he we're a little
tin god, labels herself with the marks
of imbecility. Of such silly creatures
wise men will surely beware.
