Remember Your Wife.

Orison s. Marsden, in Success Magazine.
 In a recent divorce case the husband. when asked if he ever made his wife any Christmas or birthday presents, replied.
 Nc 1 am sorry to say I never did. gave Mrs - power to draw on my bank account and to buy anything she wanted. l was mistaken. That was not all l should have done. That didn't take the place of my buying things and taking them home to her.
 It is astonishing how little even the ma jorty of husbands know about the femi- nine nature l recently heard young wife say that she would rather have her husband bring her a bunch of violets than give her ten times the money they cost. But she said she could never make him appreciate the fact that money was not all that she needed.
 l know men who never think of taking home a bunch of flowers 10 their wives. They either think 1t is unnecessary ex- travaganee, or that, if their wives want flowers, they can get them themselves. They do not realize that women prize the little eourteses. the little attentions and evidences of thoughtfuness. more than money. It is the invitation to the little outing or vacation. the little trip to an- other city, the bringing home of tickets 10 the theatre or opera or to the concert or lecture: it is the hundred and one little things that make the average woman happy, and not merely the fact that her imperative wants are supplied in a lump sum-
 Most men overlook the fact that it does not take so much, after all, 10 satisfy tho average woman IL is largely a question of the right spirit. of doing things which indicate thoughtfulness Just giving a wife a check once in a while, no matter how large it may be, or telling her to draw as much as she needs from your bank account, will not satisfy a womanly woman.

Jenny Lind, the Nightingale.

From "Reminiscences of a Long Life" by
 Carl Schurz, in the December McClures.
 Jenny Lind was then dS5D no longer young. Her appearance, although still ex- ceedingly pleasing had become somewhat matronly. Her voice might, perhaps. not have retained all it's original bird song like lightness of warble. But there was still that half-veiled tone, as if there were something mysterious behind 1t; that vel- vety timbre, that strange, magnetic vii bration. the mere sound of which could draw tears to the eyes of the listener. She was the nightingale still To hear her was deep, pure. dreamy delight Of all tho great voices that I have heard-and [ have heard many-none was so angelic and went so entraneingly, so caressingly to the heart as Jenny Lnd's.

He Was Cured.

From Success Magazine.
 A certain clergyman in Richmond has had in his employ for so long time a negro named Julian that the latter has come to regard himself as something of d confidential adviser to the divine.
 Early one Sunday morning the pastor awoke feeling decidedly i'll. After fu- tile attempt at breakfast, he summoned his old and faithful servitor, saying:
 Julian, l want you to go 10 my assist ant, Mir Blank. and tell him that, as l am unwell, he will offciate for me in this mornings service.'
 At this Julian demurred, and after some argument, persuaded his master that he would feel better if he offlclated as usual This the latter did. and, as predicted by the darkey, he did return home feeling much better.
 "You'se better. suh?" asked the ser want. meeting his master at the door
 Very much better, thank you. Julian"
 The darkey grinned. What did l tell you, suh? l knowed you'd be all right jest as soon as you got that sermon outer your system'

TERRIBLE ITCHING
 SCALP HUMOR
Badly Affected With Sores and Crusts Extended Down Behind the Ears - Some Years Later Painful and Itching PustuIes Broke Out on Lower Part of Body-Son Also Affected.
A TRIPLE CURE BY
 CUTICURA REMEDIES

About ten years ago my scalp be- came badly affected with sore and itching humors, crusts, etc, and extend ing down behind the ears. My haiY came out in places also. l was greatly troubled; understood it was eczema. Tried various remedies, sc called, with out effect. Saw your Cuticura adver- tisement, and got them at once. Ap- piled them as to directions, etc., and after two weeks, l think, of use, was clear as whistle.
 "I have to state also that late last fall, October and November, 1904, I was suddenly afflicted with bad erup- tion, painful and itching pustules over the lower part of the body. I suffered dreadfully. In two months, under the skilful treatment of my doctor, con- joined with Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment, found myself cured.
 "Six years ago my son was laid up with severe cold, hard cough, and finally painful eruption all over the body. procured the Cuticura Remedies as soon as possible, and after his faith ful use of same was as well as ever in two weeks, as well as 1 can recall.
