THE SONS ARGUMENT

Now, mother, you know you would be disappointed if you were not invited to Mrs. Solone's reception, or if it would storm so you could not go."
 Indeed, you don't know your mother If I were forgotten, l should certainly feel it was unintentional. My pride would forbid me thinking otherwise. l would promptly give an affair of my own and invite Mrs. Solone. l would be sure to be remembered next time. Flies were never caught with vinegar If rain prevented, what would be the use of counting ralndrops, numbering my sghs by them as they glistened on the window panes? You see, am not brilliant or original, so 1t would be a good time to improve my conversation by hunting up some one elses witticisms to be used al my next affair.
 Tears, signs and heartaches are out of fashion. They are scarcely used at funerals now. Mourning veils came in fashion. no doubt to shield grief; today they are most useful to hide the lack of t."
 disappointed in people?'
 ''I used to be- but experience has taught me it's fearful waste of time. I try to think of way to remedy the evil. Suppose your father drank. should certainly pray for him. but, as we all know men drink mostly for love
 
 would be to offer a series of interesting diversions, l hope 1 was never such a fool as to believe that my duty to be divertng ended the day l was married. An. no! it would be your fathers turn to be disappointed if I had ceased to try to be as charming, and more SO, than before he was good enough to give me his name to grace"
 Mother. now l know why you and Father do not quarrel like other married people, You are not disappointed in each other"
 If we wish the world to be song, let us not forget to make it so. Keep busy; then there is no time for grief We soon learn to believe that things go on in their natural order, one thought or consequence being the out come of another. Expect nothing of man. that you may not be disappointed in man.

 Naturally, since the up-to-date young woman has grown so dependent upon externals, there has been d surP PTndS rls,nS evolution in trunks and bags.
