WASHING DISHES
Often Proves True Worth Of Wife
Who Does Il.

In our grandsres' time and even in
our fathers day it was not considered
essential to have Il large bank account
or a big income when contemplating
wedlock. says The November Delin.
Gator.
But there are better things in this
beautiful old world. Fortunately for
humanity, the youthful nconsciously
know it, though probably few of the
young bridal couples who. approach
the nuptial altar could give verbal ex-
preston TO their inner feelings.
The man who marrics ON small
salary Is truly unsCliiSh. he is un.
selfish when he wcds on ten dollars
week, on fifteen twenty, twenty.
five and even thirty. He might be
spending the whole OF this sum on
himself, his wife and his pleasures.
When couple marry on small
sum the bride should gladly contribute
her share. Her contribution does not
need be wealth nor riches. Washing
dishes may injure her soft. white
hands, but it adds something to her
soul; and the girl who is willing to
live In two rooms. do her own work,
washing and ironing, if need be, is
proving that the family income is
something more than IA mere momcn.
tary pittancc,
Just because girl has been brought
up in the lap Of luxury Is no reason
why she will not turn her shoulder
firmly to the wheel when the necessity
arises for her to do SO Though she
has led an artificial life during her
sChOoldays and in those that followed,
1t does not signify that there Is moth
ing real or fine about her. The true
worth Of many girl comes with her

BURNING OF RUBBISH IN
CITY SHOULD BE STOPPED

The lawn cleaning season has ar
rived and many of these are being got
ten in order for the summer This pride
Is commendable in the home-owners
but the practice Of burning rubbish in
the streets and yards should not be
permitted. There is such small econ
omy, if there be economy at all, in this
practice that Marshal Sigman should
discourage it. For the sake of some
property owner saving 25 or SO cents
the entire neighborhood is stunk up
by the burning trash, to say nothing of
the danger from fire, should a high
win dcome up. Continue to clean up
your property but don't b%egrudge the
small fee for hauling away the rubbish.

disc and having also disposed of my
