The new era., 1911-03-16

There is only one way of reforming
a wayward husband. That way Is by
gaining his respect. The usual method
of nagging and weeping is worthless
and obsolete system. A clever wom-
an with humor. intelligence. reason
and good nature-don't smile, there
are such women and they are not
dead-can bring the most unruly hus-
band into line. She does not harp for
ever on her own sufferings. II he dis
sipates. she very tactfully shows him
how his waste of time ruins his own
chances for good work and success.
She realizes that II he goes out with
the boys night after night. 1t may be
because there isn't much at home to
attract him. She becomes his good
old pal, and II she keeps a strong
heart and a steady head. the time
comes when she can't drive him away
from her.
Naturally pretty woman Is COM
plex. She has no desire to make her
self plain.
There are marriages OF unequal IN
tellects as there are marriages OF diff
ferent characters. But II one loves
truly and deeply the plainest goose
will always be swan. The moment
that we begin to criticize and to find
fault, the rosy glow Of love grows
dim. Twilight descends on young Mr..
Cupid and darkness is on the way.
The keen-eyed wife makes her first
great mistake when she begins to pick
flaws and seeks mental blemishes. II
a mans heart is properly located, II
he is faithful. willing to toll for his
family, and gives his wife all the ten
der little attentions that rightly be-
long to her. she can well afford to
overlook the fact that he occasionally
forgets to put his slippers away or
that he does not handle his soup
spoon exactly to her fancy.
With some people the matrimonial
climate is either a roast or a frost.
Most of the domestic unhappiness
that mars the beauty of a delightful
world is caused by individuals trying
to make their relatives see life as they
see 1t. A word to mothers: To make
your boy think as you do is wrong
Times have changed, and what your
mother taught you may not be proper
teaching for him. Guide your boy
with love and tenderness. When he
makes mistakes don't scold him. Just
say you're sorry. and isn't it fine that
he will know what to avoid. And
don't forget that you must progress as
fast as he does-if you can-so you
will understand The right kind OF a
mother is always Just the same age
as her child. She is his good chum.
and his jolliest. most inspiring friend.
Divorce courts prove that sometimes
a little beauty Is dangerous thing.
Physical culture is not mere mus
cular development, but equilibrium
and grace The habitual pose of the
body is the first matter for critical at
tention. Plato maintained that those
who were educated in mind and
morals only and possessed unframed
bodies were cripples. The best way
to acquire pose and grace Is to seek
good gymnasium. AS the body be-
comes strong. the spirits will be hap
pier.
Many a mans downfall Is caused BY
4 sIip of a girl.
Truly, the world do get move on
All the old ladies are now wearing
high-heeled shoes. They say they are
more comfortable. they give spring to
the walk, and a general spryness thai
ts pleasant. The same old ladies spent
years vigorously applying the bedslai
of conversational rebuke to young
ladies' who turned up their toes and
their noses at common-sense heels
This is a case in which she laughs best
whose laugh lasts.
Be cheerful. Today will be yester
day tomorrow.
Those women to whom the turban
coiffure is becoming can wear 1t and
