Wisdom and Woman.

When woman telleth her faults,
keep thy tongue in thy head and
agree not with her, for that way
lieth madness.
A woman thinketh whom she may
honor, but the man who seeth not
when she stumbleth, he 10 is whom
her heart chooseth, for he knoweth
not that which he knoweth and his
right hand is even as his left.
A woman whose tears droppeth
continually is q nuisance: she is fill-
ed with foolishness, and, like q doll
that drippeth sawdust, she littereth
thine house.
II a woman sheweth thee her gray
hairs, laugh not, for they who laugh
over much, wax foolish and acquire
Rirth; naako much of her aud cher.
ish her, for then, indeed, is she thy
great friend who hath Thy good at
heart.
II a woman love thee well and
asketh no gift, give her oil thou
hast, for she knoweth the secret;
she hath learned of life and is wise.
IL one should say Thou lowest me
not enough, tear thyself from her
and make haste in thy going, lest,
in moment of anger, thou doest
her an injury; for she is not wise
she knoweth not the code; she
annoyeth continually like a pricker
in thy shirt.
If thou lowest a woman, besiege
her with thy presence, for even SO
are they won. IL a woman love q
man and is wise, she will make her
self exceeding scarce. for man was
born TO pursuit as the smoke riseth.
II thou must put q woman from
thee for reasons OF thine own, seek
thou first quarrel and lot that suf-
fee thee; for the heart knoweth its
own bitterness, but no heart knoweth
the bitterness OF woman scorned.
II q woman tell thee Aye, aye,
the thing is even as thou sayest,"
depart from her aud keep thy dis
lance, for she createth q thirst and
the truth is not in her. Ii she say,
Nay, thou art wrong, for /, even |,
know a thing or two," abide with
her, for better a dinner OF thirteen
courses and wife thou canst argue
with, than q meal Of herbs and an
amiable spouse.
A friend is as thy pipe after
long swearing of; even SO TO thee is
woman friend in thine hour of
need. Doest thou thy part with q
good grace that thou findest her not
wanting at tthe test.
Women possess strange ways;
even so; they weep when thou
thinkest their smiles are nigh;
when their hearts are sore, they
laugh; they look ever for that which
is not. BE thou wise in thy wisdom
and seek TO learn that which thou
misunderstandeth, for there is pur-
pose in all they do. -Broad,cay Maya

The Best Kind of Husband.


The best kind of man, the one who
makes the best husband and father,
is the normal, wholesome, everyday
man.
He has no morbid ideas about wo-
man. He judges her from the same
healthy minds standard as be judges
all else.
The morbid. retrospective man
will always command o certain
amount of interest from women.
They do not understand him, and
therefore feel that he must be worth
investigating.
As rule he is not.
He is pessimistic, self. centred and
much given to philosophixing on
subjects which he knows little or
nothing about.
His admirers are chiefly young
girls.
Men have not much use for him,
his business Judgment is not is not
very reliable and he is not manly
and jolly enough to be companion
able.
His mind grows so distorted by
his queer, morbid views of himself,
women, sentiment and the world in
general that he is quite likely to
end IS a suicide or in A lunatic
asylum
The great trouble OF it is that he
is apt to make an impression on
girls through arousing their SYM
pathies.
Let woman feel sorry for q man
and there is no knowing TO what
lengths her foolishness may carry
her.
He tells her that she is the only
one who understands him, that all
the world is against him, that her
o1 Ao ~ SHCCt, CLC.

ing could be more beautiful than de-
voting her life to Frightening the
dark existance of this blighted be-
ing.
She thinks she has a mission, and
once woman gets that into her
head angels, ministers and potenta-
tes cannot move her.
What | would like to impress on
the girls in the fact that that while
the plain, matter fact men may
not seem quite so romantic they
make ten times better husbands
than the morbid ones.
The best man to marry is q man
who is doing his everyday work to
the best of his ability.
He is a rock of strength Oh which
TO rely. He looks after his business,
his wife and his family as well as
he knows how.
He is the man who is making this
country what il is.
He is not hero OF romance, he is
just Strong, steady, everyday splen-
did man.
He is manly, girls, aud that means
a great deal.
The pessimistic, morbid man is not
manly, and take my word for it, you
will be far happier woman with
the former than the latter.
Men are not gods, you know, and
if they were we'd grow very tired
of them.
Don't jump to the conclusion that
because q man is different from other
men he is clever or wonderful in any
way.
And when he talks epigrammati
cally about women don't imagine
that he understands her.
A man Of this type is interesting
enough to talk to occasionally, bu
to marry, no.
| Marry the man that you under
stand and that understands you.
Then you'll both be happy. New
York Journal.
