mystery about herself.
There is a folklore tale of woman who.
finding her married life unhappy, went to
a white witch for charm against the
trouble She received a flask filled with
a colorless liquid, which she was directed
to take and hold in her mouth whenever
she was disposed to quarrel with her hus
band. She obeyed directions and, delighted
with the effect of the charm, went back to
the witch for fresh supply when that was
exhausted. THE liquid was merely water"
said the wise woman. The virtue of the
remedy consists simply in holding your
tongue In keeping back angry answers"
To adopt the rule, says Womans Life.

who knew the world. Never speak of
yourself. and never say anything which
is uncalled for would at first seem likely
to make Trappsts of all the world; yet 1t
is to be questioned whether, after all, the
advice was not wise. There always are peo-
pie who like to talk. whose favor is to be
won by interested listening, and good list
eners rare.
