ALL KINDS OF ADVICE
On How to Treat q W0man-Take Your
Choice, According TO Your
Temperament
(Life)

The IdeaIist-Put her in glass
case and kneel at her feet and worship
her. Treat her # she were a god
dess merely tarrying with you for a
while. Close your eyes lest you see her
blemishes and your ears lest you hear
her tongue too often.
The Practical Man-Give her a wa
terproof shelter, a comfortable bed,
plenty to eat, as many clothes as you
can afford. few children. that she may
not have time to get into mischief and
allow her TO have her own way when
ever il is best for her
The High Brow-Raise her TO your
intellectual level-if possible. Try to
make her your companion and equal
Discuss literature, art and the topics Of
the day with her, even If you are re-
quired to do a tiresome lot of explain
ing. It is possible for a woman to be
more satisfactory as companion than
a man. If she has tact-and most wo-
men have-she will never tell you that
you do not know what you are talking
about-and prove it. And II she loves
you she will accept your opinion as the
last word on any subject.
The Low Brow (alias the Brute)-
Treat her just as you do your horse.
Feed her enough TO keep her in prime
working condition. Buy her new har-
ness when the old is likely to reflect
discredit upon you. Say nothing when
she works well; beat her when she
doesn't. Brag to others about what a
true, steady puller she is, but don't let
her overhear you. When she is worn
out, get another.
The Average Man-Provde for her
the best you can. Love her a good
deal-in an undemonstrative way after
the first year. Be true to her as the
| strength of the temptation will permit.
Be a brute to her, sometimes, and then
repent, apologize and atone RENE Der
| that she is not creature of logic, rea-
| son or iron, but an inconsistent, Iowa
| BILE, breakable being, with faults more
numerous and less grave than your
own.
| The Woman Herself-Give her lots
| of clothes. Tell her often that you love
| her-whether you do not. Listen to
| her when she wants to talk. Pretend
| that you like TO have her make a fuss
over you. muss up your hair and sit on
| your lap, wrinkling your best trousers,
when you are well, and TO give you
nasty medicine when you are sick.
| Should her love become oppressive, give
her children. If you won't or can't do
| any of these things, do not blame her
| for turning to pug dog or an affinity
| She must have something to love.
| This is her ideal, but rather than
| such treatment from a man she does
not love. she prefers being treated like
a dog by one she does love.-Terrell

Lord Kitchener has been appointed
British agent in Egypt. which is to say
he will have autocratic power in that
country. Kitchener is a great military
organizer. but it is to be doubted that
he has the talents necessary for civic
administration. His fame as soldier
rests on his victory at Onndurman.
where the we'll trained army under his
command slaughter the undisciplined
thousands who dashed their lives out
in a frontal attack on the British
squares. In the Transvaa1 some years
later, a few handfuls of Dutch farm
ers kept Kitchener and his legions
busy for several months. He has done
well with the resources of a mighty
empire to draw on. but it is to be
doubted that he would have measured
up highly in such a command as that
of Lee or Jackson.
