ABSENCE MAKES HEART PONDER
Advice of Worldly Wise Woman to
Overload Wives

IF wife would keep her husband
her lover, let him miss her now and
then," is the advice OF a worldly wise
woman. Men get tired of their
wives just from seeing them around
so much. The same face at breakfast
IS times a year; the same face at
dinner year in and year out; neither
realizes what the trouble is, and the
wife, as often as not, thinks it is her
fault, and prods herself into greater
conscientiousness, greater fidelity.
Stuff and nonsense! Let her pack her
grip and go off for a holiday. Give
him the jolt of finding that he must
eat his dinner alone once in a while
The use-and-wont attitude toward the
wife-the taking her for granted-1t
is this which, unguessed, unseen, lies
at the bottom of much domestic fric
ton Of the day. In nine cases out Of
ten the woman is it's victim, but on
the. other hand, it is generally hel
fault to begin with. These self
efacing, meek, MISUNDERSTANDING
little wives, oh, how much they have
to answer for!"-New York Tribune

One of the peculiar things about the

ter now dull or superficial he may
be. The Office thus acquires attri-
butte of intellect and power in the
minds of the multitude, and as 1t is
the tendency of men to glorify that
which they worship, as being the best
justification of the worship itself.

merits of the holder, becomes a sort

the reverse, ''atfects the god, assumes

couch in his home and apparently had
been dead for two days. The old gen.

pearance the door was forced and his
dead body was found.
Judge James Oscar Pierce, one of

fered two strokes of apoplexy within
year and his death was not unex-
pected.
