A Wjfe's DUTY.

Editor Social Corner: I find my
self quietly asking myself what wifely
duty is? It seems to me that it lies
principally in good self government
and efficient home service. Living for
the elevation of myself and for the
good and comfort of others. l con-
ceive that each member of a family
must map out Il career and live it gov
erned by the principles inculcated and
the Interpretation each one puts upon
life and duty. 1t is part of a par
ent's duty to instruct and advise chill
dren for their own good. but they can
not be compelled TO live the life an
other has planned for them, The force
of good example is sometimes beneh
cial and sometimes not. My husband
does some things which annoy me and
I doubtless say and do things which
disturb him. [ have ceased to nag
him. 1 viii not have him nag me. [
have learned the value of silence
where other men and women voice
critical remarks which lead to family
disturbances. We are two individuals
with different tastes and must live our
separate lives as we view them, not
as they are viewed by another. My
duty | find is to live according to my
best light and to preserve a harmoni-
Gus relation to my family and social
circle. / am not a governor of any
one else, hence. the peace is conserved
and l find considerable enjoyment.

Home Helps.

Editor Social Corner: l have found
the household helps in The Corner
money-savers to me. 1t tells how to
help ones self in SO many ways. Since
have nasticated my food we'll and
slept in airy rooms-lived for health
| do not need to send so often for thu
doctor.
I submit a few things for the sisters
which l know will serve them well.
Here are two good recipes:
Potato Buns: Boil four large pota-
toes Mash and rub through a sieve,
and add two cupfuls of milk three
cupfuls of flour. well sifted, with two
teaspoonfuls of baking powder. Shape
in small cakes and bake on a buttered
Cream3d Lima Beans: Boil a quart
of the ~shelled lima beans in sailed
water until nearly done: drain and
put them in a double boiler with a
cupful of milk. bunch of sweet herbs
and Il little parsley. Let them simmer
till thoroughly tender Then add half
bolk of an egg. Stir till the sauce is
Fhot; do not let it boil Season with
salt and pepper, and serve immedi-
ately.
Here are three household helps
which | can recommend:
If a baby's ankles are weak, dissolve
a handful of sea salt in a quart of rain
water and battle them every morning
and night.
A simple remedy for sick headache is
a drink made by squeezing the juice of
lemon into half glass of cold water.
adding a pinch of sugar and a half
teaspoon of baking soda. Drink while
it is effervescing.
If suffering from eczema mix glycer-
inc and lemon juice in equal parts
thoroughly and pour on the affected
parts. Cover with cotton batting and
pour some of the mixture on the conAon
enough to soak through. Don't re
move the cotton, but pour the mixture
on three or four times a day as long
as the itching continues. 1t is both
soothing and healing.

To Rennoxe Grass Stains.

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner:
1t is a duty to be kind toward every
body-the whole world around us and
the whole world within us are ruled
by law. To the sister who would like
to have recipe for grass stains. They
are dissolved by alcohol; if on white
goods. cream of tartar and water will
remove them; if on any delicate color
use alcohol and afterward wipe the
spots with a clean white cloth, moist
ened with water, then dry. Green
stains from grass or vegetables may
also be removed with molasses, then
washed i'll cold water I've just taken
a grass stain out of white cloth that
was ground in badly, and dried in, by
the use of molasses spread on ant let
lie till soaked through. and washed in
cold water twice and Washed again
with soap, and then hot water turned
through it and rubbed again. When
dried no green was to be seen.

as soon IS people can get into their
heads the idea that business is an OPP
portunity for mutual advantage, and
not a preteXt for mutual throat-cut-

am wrong; perhaps my idea of human
nature is too IDEAL perhaps we're
bound to keep on, unanimously and
forever, in the present grab-bag game,
where the biggest bully with the long

people get the bruises and the empty
packages. II Soft things are really

of all this government paternalism.
It's a poor way to try to make people
good by law. Furthermore it can't
be done: at least, it never has been
done. All that law can do is to deter
a part of the bad men, a part of the
time, from exploiting their badness.
Law may make it harder or more dan
gerous to commit crime, but it doesn't
reform the criminal. You can fence
your hogs into their yard but you
can't change them into humming birds,
fence you never so cunningly They'll
remain hogs and they'll go through or
under your fence, If they ever find the
chance. And then it's good bye to
your stocked corn and your rowen
clover
What is wanted is a system of mu-
tuai organization and cooperation by
which the direct agent of a bunch of
consumers shall deal with the direct
agent of a bunch of producers, making
it possible for the producer to get all
his products are worthless his fair
share of the small cost of transporta-
ton, and the consumer shall get his
full moneys worthless his equally
fair share of transportation. 1t doesn't
need more law nor more government
supervision to bring this about. 1t
means simply a practical application
of practical common sense to a prac-
tical problem.
One of the things that makes me
most ardent in my advocacy of CO.
opera ton is that it will present. at
least it will tend to prevent, our sink
ing deeper and deeper into depIorable
socialism. It's the only way / can see
to avoid that undesirable consumma-
ton. Perhaps you may be a little
doubtful about the practica bility or the
value of co-opera ton. But, if you're
like the other farmers I know. you
share my dread of socialistic govern
ment. And, even if Cooperation Har-
Dor isn't exactly the port you'd
choose, isn't it better than to arrive
on the reefs of socialism and endan-
ger not only the good ship of state,
but the invaluable freight it carries?
