"The ideal wife is always truthful
never. attempts to coerce her husband
always looks her best, never scold:
and makes it her constant duty to
please him"
The above summarizes Rev. Richard
A. Morley's conception of the ideal
wife as he pictured it to his congre.
CATION in Oak Park, III. An idea
wife," he said. never attempts to force
or coerce her husband, but she realizes
| that she was created to be subject to
him. 1t Is not true, strictly speaking
| he explained. that the wife is subject
to the husband in a material sense.
That is the idea of the coarse and un.
thinking, but not of those who have
caught the vision of the inspired writ
er. A woman has the right to resist
with all her strength any attempt by
her husband to intimidate her."
Continuing the description of ideal
wifehood, DR.. Morley said in part:
ITO be a wife at all is a great honor.
But to he al ideal wife is a position
and honor that angels might coyet.
When we speak of a wife we assume
that she has those virtues and quail
ties essential to wifehood before. she
can enter into the realm of the ideal.
That Is, she Is a woman before she Is
a wife. An ideal wife must be abso-
lutely truthful to her husband. Most
people will be untruthful by word or
act under ONE circumstances but 1t
Is objectionable for a wife to lie to her
husband.
Your husband courted you in your
best attire. He wO0ed and won you in
an atmosphere surcharged by the be-
wilderment Of roses, perfume and song,
amid the sweet ~intoxication of wood
land rambies and moonlight poetry.
You cone to his home and take the
myrtle from your hair, the rosebud
from your throat and exchange the
perfumed roses of love for faded or
even soiled calico. Can you expect any
thing else than a shock TO the affec-
tions of him who had hitherto looked
upon you only In the moveless trance
of love?
TT Is a wife's dirty to look her best
at all times. and I, sin for her to be
careless about her personal attire in
the presence of her husband. An ideal
wife never criticises her husband and
Is not a scold. Solomon says, a on
tinual dropping OF a very rainy day
and a conscientious woman are alike
and in another place he says, 1T is bet
ter to dwell in a corner of a housetop
than in a wide house with a brawl-
ing woman and Solomon knew, be
cause he had a thousand wives, and
no doubt some of them were scolds.
'"The ideal wife studies her husband
as she studies philosophy or mathemat-
les, scientifically. Her aim should be
to please him. She looks pretty for his
sake rather than to please other men,"

WHY EVERYBODY LIKES SAND.
Love of 1t Is Universal and IL Felt
mt All Ages.

Love of 1t Is Universal and IL Felt
mt All Ages.
The love of sand is universal, felt
By all. and at all ages. The child finds
in it a ready and plentiful material for
giving something of definiteness to the
world of his childish Imagination, and
when experience shall have proved the
real world to be less pleasant and not
expressible in sand he nevertheless as
a grown man tacitly admits the attrac-
ton of the Old-time medium and spends
his holidays upon it. No watering place
need trouble as to It's prosperity IL it
has a broad forefront Of sand.
Probably so general and ingrained a
love Is only to be accounted for as the
result of a sympathetic and uncon-
scious barking back" to the feel of
the life on the dry sandy soils of the
East. upon which man first wandered
and in which he first delved. He can
sit or lie with greater comfort and
ase-as he originally sat, without a
chair or lay without a couch-upon
dho Sudn upt1 dnJ oluti hinu VI cdIlu
and upon sand he reverts readily and
without fear of convention TO primeval
barefootedness. Possibly ever the
charm OF the ''sanded fioorv-in the
concrete to our forefathers, the COM
fort and coziness OF CHEEKY inn parlors
and kitchens warm with the rudy heat
of glowing logs on snowy nights-may
also be due to vaguely assertive In
stinct.
In proof 1t may be readily concluded
that far distant man would not have
been long in finding out the advantages
of a dry cave as a dwelling place. 1t
would be found most readily In soft,
friable rocks. The natural and further
easy expansion of the cave to meet
growing demands for house room by
scraping down of roof and sides would
result in a landed floor. Litter Of rude
cave living and housekeeping could be
more easily swept out with tile leafy
bough or bunch of sedges acting as the
original broom when mixed with sand
than without its aid. The savage fam
lily which swept the a out oftenest
and most thoroughly would certainly
be the healthiest and strongest.-Lon-
don Spectator.

way. and the two make a beautiful
finish for white dresses, skirts, aprons
and underwear, and save a world of
time in the making of dainty baby
clothes. A corded effect is sometimes
tucked on heavy linen, and It can be
produced by stitching a second time,
just below the drawn threads, after
the hen or tuck has been pulled into
place. 1t can also be made the basis
of simple drawn work designs, hem.
stitching both edges by machine, and
then putting in one or more threads of
handwork through the enter.

DON'T LIKE THEIR CLOTHES.
Jack Tars File Protest Against Cut
of Their Garments.

New York, Aug. 6.-The jack tars of
the United States navy have made such
a mighty protest against the time-hCn-
ored headgear and the blouse they wear
ashore and on dress occasions aboard
ship, that to meet the clamor of the en-
listed men the navy department has
appointed a committee to decide on
changes in the uniforms. Captain Hugo
o. Sterhaus, commander OF the battle
ship Connecticut, is chairman of this
committee.
Captain Osterhaus has sent out a
statement to the captains of all war
ships in the North Atlantic squadron
and to the commander of every ship in
the service asking for suggestions.
The enlisted men are DESTROYS of OBJ
tanning coats and visor caps. Many of
them want the wide f1aring trousers,
the wcrld-round, immemorial cut pecul-
lar to sailor men, changed into the ordi-
nary pattern. But the chief grievance
of the sailors relates to the blouses and
the old-fashioned pancake caps These
caps are said by all seamen to be abso-
can not be kept or the head. They af-
ford no shade to the eyes and seem to
exist merely as a relic of the past.
The protest over the blouse is consid-
cred we'll justified in the navy. In the
first place the seamen object to the wide
collar, which blows up around their
ears in windy days. They want shorter
neckerchiefs and coats cut like those of
the marines.
Should the sailors demands be grant
ed it Will be the first time in the history
of the American navy that seamen have
worn coats.
