A Woman's DUTY,

The woman of taste keeps abreast
OF the fashions In 2. way-that is, she
drops wornout styles and adopts what
ever new ones she can adapt to her
use. II she can AFFORD It she patron
lies first-class dressmakers and gets
her moneys worth by wearing her
clothes two or three seasons without
losing her prestige as well-dressed
woman. There is an advantage In
this method. as you can see. and
have been told by women who use
II that there is economy as we'll.
II is no economy to save ut the ex-
pense Of good looks. 1t is n woman's
duty TO look her best, n duty she owes
to her family. II she can secure It
by small expenditure. so much the
better but to save by accepting shah
biness is not creditable save In dire
stress OF circumstances. Poverty is
an excuse for shabbiness and nothing
else is accepted by the world. save In
the rare cases of shabby millionaires.

SAVED FROM MATERNAL WRATH.
Boys Fervent Prayer Was Answered
In the Nick of Time.

A suburbanite is fond of telling this
story OF his five-year-old son Bobby.
Being of an inquiring turn of mind
the youngster one day managed. to
turn on both faucets in The bathtub
to see what would happen. 1t ehanced
that the stopper was in place, and the
tub rapidly filled up, to the great de-
light Of Bobby. Finally, however, the
tub became so full that 1t threatened
to overflow on to the floor. and Bobby,
having a proper respect for the mater
nal slipper, became frightened and
tried vainly to turn off the water. Be.
ing unable to. for some reason, he
gazed tearfully at the ever-rising flood,
and then. mindful both of his religious
training and the occasional visits Of
the plumber. he plunged down on his
knees, and his elder sister, who hap
pened to be passing at the moment,
heard him exclaim, fervently:
20. Lord. please stop this water
running! And, o, Lord, II YOU can't
do 1t, please send somebody that can!"
His prayer was answered, for his
sister rose to the occasion and turned
off the water and temporarily saved
Bobby from the lnuchfeared slipper.

THE SALARIED MAN.

He gets his "twenty-per" each week.
enough to pay his way,
He doesn't own a country home, a
yacht out in the bay;
Three children romp about his door,
that self-same door is rented,
But still he smiles his way along. with
all the world contented.
He meets his bills as they fail due.
at night sleeps like top,
And resting sweetly never fears that
copper stock will drop.
He plods along right faithfully and
when his work is done
He calls his children round him for
the evening hour of fun:
His weary wife looks through the door
and smiles to see them there,
And in her heart there's gentle peace,
her soul is free from care.
She huns little song of love and
kisses one and all.
She fears no market crash to drive
her husband to the wall.
Great wealth has never scared their
souls or spoiled their simple
lives.
And on their hearth rank envy's weed
seldom, aye! never thrives:
Modest their dress and plain their
food, the greatest of their joys,
The love they bear each other and
the love they bear their boys.
Theirs is a struggle, sometimes hard
but all the odds they face
With calmness, for they have no fear
of run or disgrace.
Go forth today and tread your way
along the city street,
Who Is the happiest man of all that
you may chance to meet?
Not he whose wealth uncounted is,
not he of splendid frame,
Not he who boasts a world of power,
not he of public name;
But he, the unassuming man. whose
face is homeward turned
To greet his wife and little ones. his
daily wage well earned.
