WIVES WHO ARE ATHLETIC.
Attributes that Enhance Their Inc
Guence with Their Husbands.

Attributes that Enhance Their Inc
fuence with Their Husbands.
American women have always had
the reputation of excelling In devotion
as mothers while English women have
been considered the more devoted
wives, says the North American Re
view. 1t may be owing to the better
conditions of organized and trained do
nestle service in England, and to the
possibility of leaving children safely In
the keeping of nurses and governesses,
that English women have thrown them.
selves 50 much more unreservedly into
the interests, business and amusements
Of their husbands. In England, the
husband and wife usually take their
holiday trips together In America, the
mother and children make their holt
days together, and the father, when he
takes one, usually takes it alone or
with other men.
The recent development Of athletics
for women III this country is trans
forming womens lives in many ways,
and in nothing more benefcially than
in making them more capable Of being
companions for their husbands. They
are gaining in strength, In hardihood,
in cheerfulness and breadth Of interest
| by their concern for sport. A wife
who can ride to hounds, tramp across
country, golf, play tennis and sail
! boat combines the attractions of COM
| rade, friend and wife, and triples her
power. TO add to a capacity for out
door life an intelligent interest In poll
tics and municipal government, a habit
of culling the world politics from the
daily newspapers, and a well-bred abb
stention from domestic themes Of con-
versation would doubtless make the
American woman the most desirable
wife In the world, and perhaps the
nursery would find her just as delight
full and as influential a power If she
came to it from time to time fresh from
larger world, instead Of limiting her
vision to its four walls
There Is a great deal In teaching q
child to look upon its mothers presence
as a gracious condescension and more
In making a man feel that his wife Is
his most congenIal friend.

and thanked him.
Hamilton thrust half-finished
horseshoe back among the glowing EN-
bers, worked the bellows several times,
and then came over to where the colt
was tied. He united it, and led 1t
once or twice round the shop, care
fully watching its every movement,
and then tied 1t again.

When l. world-wearied, racked with pain.

And tender morning-glories hung.

had an idea of how 1t should be done
so, ignoring Hamiltons wink, l held
the paper UP against the wall and
scrawled upon 1t with the pencil:
Mr.. Hamilton gave me eighty dol

that a flourish under ones signature
adds nothing to its value. But l was

After an affectionate farewell to
the colt, l told Hamilton to keep the
saddle and bride until we drove to
town the next time; and then, noddlng

last look at the latter's beautiful horse,
l departed.
