WHAT THE WISE WIFE KNOWS.
Observations for the Builders Of
Happy Homes.

She knows that home is more than
half what you make it. and that a
builder OF a happy home is success
indeed. She knows that IL takes two
to proIong a family quarrel. one can
therefore terminate it. She knows
that filling a house with bargains
keeps a couple from owning the house
in which they place them.
She knows that If we thought all we
said we'd be wise. but If we said all
We thought we'd be foolish She
knows that some people sneer at love
in a cottage. but love that could wish
to live anywhere else is not love. She
knows that proud people seldom have
friends. In prosperity they know no
body. in adversely, nobody knows
them. She knows that to make long
lived friendships one must be slow in
making them.
She knows that the woman who
gains a trihe meanly is meaner than
the trife. She knows saat 1T Is less
pain 10 learn in youth than to be ig-
norant in old age" She knows that II
she cannot throw brightness over her
home II is best not to throw a wet
blanket over H. She knows that the
who thinks she is perfect is generally
the most imperfect The unwise wife
may profit by studying what the wise
woman knows.-Chicago Journal.

HOMEMADE cATARRH CURE.
Sufferers Should Make This Up and
Try II Anyway.

ANY one can mix right at home the
best remedy of its kind known. The
name Cyclone" is given 10 the fol-
lowing prescription. It is supposed, be-
cause of its promptness in driving
from the blood and system every YES
tige OF catarrhal poison, relieving this
foul and dread disease, no matter
where located. To prepare the mix
ture: Get from any good pharmacy
one halfounce Fluid Extract Dande-
lion, one ounce Compound Kargon and
three ounces Compound Syrup Sarsa-
pariila Shake we'll and use in tea
spoonful doses after each meal and at
bedtime.
This is a harmless. inexpensive mix
ture, which has peculiar action upon
the eliminative tissues OF the Kidneys,
assisting them to filter and strain
from the blood and system all ca
tarrhal poisons. which. If not eradi-
Gated. are absorbed by the mucous
membrane, and an open sore or ca
tarrh is the result.
Prepare some and try II, as ii is the
prescription of an eminent catarrh
specialist of national reputation.

This just means that a plain girl
has got TO exert herself. the pretty
girl allows her looks 10 do all the
work. but her plain sister must labor
assiduously i'm order to make herself
thoroughly popular sad 10 say. a
pretty girl is usually not bit too
well-mannered: she is inclined 10 be
snobbish and conceited. Now. the
plain girl must avoid these failings.
she must cultivate good manner,
and must neither be conceited nor
snobbish--if she has the slightest
tendencies in these latter directions
she Is bound TO be greatly disliked,
whereas her pretty sister is tolerated
ON account OF her good looks.
plain girl must learn how to sym
pathize with men. and that is not
difficult She must too. always al.
low any man into whose company she
is thrown to have the floor That
just means that she must train her
self TO listen patiently and get out
OF the habit. if formed. of pushing
forward her own views.
That gives her an advantage over
the pretty girl, who is inclined TO be
autocratic and petulant at times
Men like girls who sit quietly and
listen 10 them chattering. II fiatters
them and they conclude these girls
have vast common sense: and that is
just what a plain girl has to do-she
must make men see that she is per
son OF common sense.
At the same time ii is not true that
plain girl has just got TO scheme a
bit in order 20 gain popularity with
men No; she must be very sincere
and serious on occasions bur she
must always beware Of advising a
gentleman friend II he happens 20 APP
peal TO her for advice. The better
plan is for her TO say that he must
know what to do far better than she.
That pleases man wonderfully. A
soft. persuasive tone Of voice is OF
! immense service to plain girl

United Mission Study.

A profitable and interesting meeting
was held in the Museum Friday after
noon by the United Mission Study class.
Interesting papers were given by Miss
Eleanor A. Doran on the Samoan Islands,
telling how the work had progressed and
the influence Robert Louis Stevenson had
on the people and what an active part he
had played in the islands; and by Mrs.
W. H. Sargent on the Tonga Islands.
The people are of kind conscientious
disposition, ready to enter into the work
set before them and denying themselves
much for the spread of the gospel. Mi
cronesia, paper written by Miss Hen
rietta G. Wilder, was read by Mrs. F. G.
Bundv. The people in this island are adj
venturous and fearless citizens, leading
an indolent life for the food is easy to get
and their living is an easy one to obtain.
Mrs. I. G. Libbey presented the condi-
lions of the Pitcairn Islands in an inter
esting way. Through the help of the
missionaries sent there the people became
energetic and progressed and the islands
were in prosperous condition. The
meeting closed with the singing of Amer
lea.
