Importance of Eeinu Sociable.

To simply live alone, with no pro-
vision for the qualification of the So
cial instincts, is apt to prove too Sc
we're a strain upon the reserve forces
of even the happiest marriage. There
is some excuse outside the home
wherein no thought is given tc social
pleasure, while the wife is apt to grow
petty and personal, and therefore less
attractive as she shuts herself away
from intercourse with others. This
dropping out is very easy, but even
when prosperity comes, and large So
cia1 functions are possible, it is too
late to gain that most valuable pos
session, friendship, which is entirely
independent of financial success To
have and to hold place in the social
life of the world is not only the right
but the duty of the young wife who
desires to have home in it's truest
and best sense.

SHINING RECORD

To have performed the duties of
a responsible position for Al years
without making a single mistake
is an achievement which is prob.
abbey unique in the annals of
public service. Such is the envi-
able record of Mrs. Villa A..
Leonard who at the age of II has
just resigned the post of cnicf of
counterfeit detectors in the
treasury department.
During her remarkable term of
service Mrs. Leonard was required
every day to pass upon the genuin-
ness of hundreds Of currency notes
Of various DENIM nations. The
notes passed first through the
hands Of subordinate examiners
and came to Mrs. Leonard for final
judgement: she being sort of
supreme court whose opinion was
the last word. She never made an
error as,to the ,charac ter ola note
though she had handled millions
and millions Of dollars. Hers is
an unparalleled record of ecfiicncy

additionally mortified by the con-
