Heart to Heart
Talks.
"JUST JIMMIE'S WIFE"
By EDWIN A. NYE.
Copyright, 1903, by Edwin A. Nye,

a newspaper sketch shows two chill
dren. girl and boy. They are be-
ing interviewed by woman. This is
part Of the converse tion:
And what do you expect to make
of yourself, Maud, when you grow
upr'
Maud-Just Jimmie's wife, ma'am
Which was cute reioinder-and
more.
Maud may change her mind when
she grows up Our childish ideals
change sometimes. Certainly when
she is grown up she will be less frank
to say she Is going to be Jimmie's
wife, whatever she may feel about it.
But the wisdom Of childhood caused
Maud to choose the better part. Be-
cause
If Jimmie proves to be the right sort
and if he is to do his best he must
have Il good wife What Jimmie is to
do and be will depend largely on Jim
mics wife. He will need Maud to
make a man of him. And. in making
a man of Jimmie. Maud will have her
hands and heart quite full
Mighty important just Jimmie's
wife"
Of course it is hard to predict. When
Maud grows up she may have special
talents for something else. or Jimmie
may not suit her or she him. But
other things being equal. each will
know when the time comes
And Maud can aspire to no higher
position than being Jimmie's wife.
If she holds to her girlish choice and
they choose each other no greater
crown of happiness can come to her.
Woman was made for Wifehood and
womanhood, and she finds her highest
sa atisfactions in fulfilling her destiny.
The abundance of her being demands
husband and children upon whom she
may lavish her love.
She who misses this misses abun-
dant life.
And If Maud marries Jimmie. besides
filling the measure Of her own normal
desire, she viii have a great chance to
do for Jimmie
The gentle influence subtle, but
strong. of woman. working by and
through the man she loves. is the pow
er that moves the world More than
that, 1t Is the power that SAVES the
world
For, mind you
Always and everywhere, when you
find good man or a great man. al
ways you will find A GOOD WOMAN
BEHIND THE NAN.
Blessings on the Mauds who find
their content and Joy In being .just
Jimmte's wife,

Cuffs Soiled or Frayed.

From an aesthetic point of view the
cuff seems to be an indispensable part
Of the clothing of the neatly and clean
ly dressed individual. This assumes,
of course, that the cuff is clean and
spotless. meteorological refnements
are often dismissed by many people as
inadmissible in the common applica-
tions of life, but the exhibition Of a
dirty or even frayed cuff is commonly
held to be the mark of slovenliness and
dirt or as an indication that the indi-
vidual has lost all regard for his clean
ly appearance and condition. There
can be no doubt at all that when the
cuff picks up, as it is prone to do, dirt
from the counter. desk or table it picks
up also a multitude of micro organ
isms.-London Lancet.
Morris tribune., 1908-12-05
Cats and Lavender.

The keenest aesthetic pleasure for
cat lies in the region Of smell. The
dog uses smell merely as medium
of information. but the cat revels in it.
She will linger near tree trunk,
smelling each separate aromatic leaf
for the pure pleasure of it-not like a
dog, to trace friend. foe or prey. Ii
the window of close room is opened
the cat leans out. smelling the air.
New dresses are smelIed, partly per-
haps for future recognition. but also
apparently for pleasure. A strong
smell. above all spirituous smell. is
not only disagreed BILE. but absolutely
painful. Lavender water may please
a tiger but 1t will put cat to flight
