The day after Mr. Taft finishes that ''swing around the circle,' he will run over to Con Inecticut for couple of days; after that he will hesitate in Washington trife of time, then drop down to Norfolk for a spell. Mr. Taft evidently finds it hard to shake off old habits.

The wind-up of the mayoralty campaign is bound to bring relief to New York, no matter which side the individual was on. It must be extremely trying on ordinarily decent people of whom Manhattan boasts not few.

Now we want to say some
thing to husband. Those
dear aggravating indispens-
able creatures, that there is
hardly any living with or with
out. If your wife or daught-
er has been bending over the
hot stove, and a sewing ma
chine all day, she needs to
ride out in a vehicle or horse
back. Don't think we are a
fit subject for a lunitic asylum
if we tell you to stop a horse
out of ''the crap'' and take
her, or let her 60 by herself
if she is not afraid. You may
have to stop longer than an
hour to 60 for doctor, and
work longer to pay the bill.
You will be sorry some day
when those tired hands holds

that you did not look more
after her health and comfort,
If she thinks it is too much

The Girl on the Pa nm.

One reason why SO many
girls and boys, men and
woman, too, are uninterest-
ing is because they try SO
hard to be like somebody else
rather than be content to re-
main himself or herself in life,
In nature you don't see an
oak posing as a willow, or a
black duck as a yellow leg, or
a horse as a COW, or a lily as
a rose, or a lilac as a peony,
or a dog as a cat. Be natural
and you'll be all right. Many
a girl without the slightest
talent for music is running d
piano who should be making
bonnets or bread; and many d
boy is studying for a learned
profession whose proper
sphere is the machio.e shop of
the mill; many a man is split
ing up churches who ought
to be doing good service in

trying in vain to be a leader
of society when she should be
a model housewife in her own

INTERESTING READING FOR ALL

in leaving the farm, where
you can get such perfect
health, which is the great re-
quisit to a brilliant mind.
And, first of all, before you
aspire to any professional
work, learn your duties as a
hOusekeeper. Household
work will not interfere with
study. You..require exercise,
and there is none better than
keeping a farm house. And
if You do not wish to take up
any profession, study will not
harm you; make the most of
talents nature has given you,
and when the happy fellow is
met your happiness will be of
the kind that you will not re
greet the time you considered
wasted in study. Do not be
too hasty in running your
neck into the matrimonial
moose. If you from choise
should remain single (do not
fear that you will haye to
from necessity. You will
find plenty of work to do,
plenty of burdens to Tighten,
and plenty of loveless ones
upon whom to lavish the
wealth of your charitable af-
fectiOns. Be assured that
true happiness is not found in
living for ones self alone.
Do your best, make the most
of the material at hand, and
at the close of LIES journey
you will enjoy that peace, the

life alone can give.

Perhaps it is true, there
never was a garment too fine
for a man or a maid; there
never Was a chair too good
for a cobbler or a cooper or a
king to sit in; never a house
too fine to shelter the human
head. But often times do we
not value all these things far
more than they are worth and
sometimes mortgage a house
for the mahog any we bring
iuto it? Had we not better
forego the pleasure of all
these things than consume
ourselves before we get a
place we can calf home, and
take SO much pains with the
outside that the inside is as
hollow as an empty nut.
Beauty is great thing, but
beauty of garment and house
and furniture are tawdy orna-
ments compared with domes-
tic love. All the elegance in
the world will not make a
home, and a spoonful of love
exceeds whole ship loads of
furniture and all the gor-
geousness the world can
gather.
