The Sayings Of Mrs. Solomon (Being the Confessions of the Seven Hundreth Wife)
Translated by Maude Marie

Lo! my daughter hast thou met the near widow9 Verify, verify, charge thee beware of her! For of all the ''wild animals have known" she is the widest, and thou standest no chance against her.
 She leaveth her husband in the city to make money, while she goeth forth into the country to spend it.
 And To! when the summer youth spyeth her, he cryeth "That for mine.'
 ''Yea.' he mrmureth unto himself "a real widow is possible wife, and bread and girl is probable husband hunters but woman who is married just a little is positive joy"
 Then, behold how she devoureth all the men upon the hotel piazza and cornereth the escort market. And the curses of the match making mamas fall upon her, for she is the hotel attraction.
 She weareth cute frocks in the morning. and poseth in the light canoe; and in the evening she watcheth the moon rise beside the still waters-and the best looking man on the beach.
 And unto the women, she saith sweetly, "Verily my husband understandeth me 1; therefore is he not troubled that make my self pleasant unto others" But unto the men she sigheth, My husband doth not un- derstand me. :"
 And this is always effective. For when woman is both pretty and married, cannot man console himself with the thought, that perhaps her husband doth not appreciate hers Yea, verify!
 And behold, when the near-widow depart eth she leaveth the men all sad and the women all happy. Verify, veriy, a husband at distance is worth two at hand, and a lit tie vacation is worth much matrimony. Selah

FLIRT MAKES GOOD WIFE

The firt-by which is generally meant the feminine inconstant-is by no means the cold and heartless being of the novelist msrepre- sentation. Sir Walter Scott knew better when he wrote that woman lin our hours of ease, un- certain, coy, and hard to please" is to man. kind pain and sorrow vertically a ministering angel"
 It is remarkable how often girl who has had score of hearts afutter, dozen pale flaxen scalps dangling at her girdle, and who is, there fore, set down by her elders as more efferves- cent and volatile than perfume, makes one of the most domesticable of wives and mothers when her time comes to marry. The face once wreathed with light, mocking laughter becomes beautifully serious over a cradle; the favor that was once dispensed among any number of can didates for her girlish heart and hand becomes a woman s love to be bestowed, for always, upon one man out of the whole wide universe
 Filtration wisely understood, is perhaps the means by which nature has insured the widest possible range of selection, and hence in the long run the highest attainable degree of human happiness.
