Average Man Must Be the

Burr Nichols and His
Gifted Wife.
Shattered Romance of TUo
Artists Seems to ProDe
That a Woman Must
BelDare of Be min g
More Famous Than Her
Husband, in His Chosen
Line of Work.

Jealousy. dissensions, misery and d.
vorce. Are these the inevitable conse-
quences when wife is engaged in the
same life occupation as her husband.
when their lives move on parallel
lines and with parallel ambitions, and
when it is possible that the work of
the wife exceeds in merit that of the
husband?
So it would seem from the unhappy
marital history of Mrs. Rhoda Holmes
Nichols. a history in which art and
jealousy crept in at the door while
love flew out through the window.
Her divorce has just been recorded
in the New York supreme court.
1t is not an altogether unusual thing
nowadays for wife to outdo her hus-
band at his chosen occupation. In al
most every instance where this oc-
ours misery is the consequence.
Men do not like to have wives
smarter than themselves. or more ar
tistic, or wiser in business way, or
who win praise for doing things for
which praise is usually accorded a
man, declares a writer in the New
York World.
Let a woman bake fine pie, or do
a fine bit of embroidery, or hem or
stitch. or sew or keep neat house,
and the husband will listen to the
worlds praise of her with complacent
satisfaction.
But let her keep to the kitchen, II
you please. or play the piano in the
parlor, or mother the children in the
nursery. or do anything but step over
the line of demarkation where he is
boss.
He is the bread winner and the king.
Those in his kingdom must be weaker
than himself and dependent upon him,
or the whole domestic structure falls
and there is no more happiness in the
world.

l recommend the pills to everyone who
is ailing aud take every opportunity to
let people know how good they are"
DIR. Williams Pink Pills cured Mrs
Morrison because they actually make
good, red blood. When the blood ia red
and healthy there can DO no debility.
The relation between the blood and
nervous system is such that the pills
have very decided action upon the
nerves and they have cured many severe
nervous disorders, such as partial pa
ralysis, locomotor ataxia and st. Vitus'
dance, that have not yielded to ordinary
treatment. Their double action, on the
blood and on the nerves, makes them an
ideal tonic.

Pills. or they will be sent by mail post

box. six boxes for $3.50. by the DIR. Will
