A certain Woodworking husband is al

wife who has nerves" This is an all

exaseprating case OF nerves" With
most misfortunes, there Is hope always
that in time relief of some kind will
come. or at least the sting blunted. But
the burden Of a wife with nerves grows
heavier with the years
This husband works hard from in the
morning nutil at night. in a gloomy,
unhealthy Office. His wages are none
too large. He returns home at night to
find a wife in tears. or in bed, or Just
feeling so miserable she does not know
what to do. Part OF the time he gets
his own meals: part of the time they get
their meals out. part Of the time a pro-
cession OF maids OF various kinds and ca
pacities passes through the house. He

true of Mcbride Not only has ho been
getting his share of the hits on this
trip, but a very large majority of his
safe drives have been at the right time,
which makes him a much more valuable
man for the team than some fellow who
bats around the coveted mark and yet
gets but few hits when they are needed.
