ASK YOURSELF THESE
TEST OF WHATS THE USE" FOR
THE SELF-SATISFIED.
Here Are Few Pertinent Suggestions
for Daily Living That Will Help to
Make You and Your
Friends Happier.

That old cry of "cui bono" is sup
posed to be the hallmark of the pes
simist, but many a self-satisfied one
would do well to put the test OF
whats the use" to her daily living.
What's the use of stinting so hard
for rainy day that you get no fun
out of the passing sunny ones? This
was the motto of the late Edwin Alb.
bey, and the woman who prides her
self on her thrift and reviles the
spendthrift habits of her friend will
do well to ponder it.
What's the use of charitable purse
and an uncharitable tongue? Kind
words are infinitely more than cor
onets-or donations on subscrip.
tion list.
What's the use of playing the ami
able role in society and a snapdragon
in the family circle? Walls have ears,
also neighbors have tongues and the
real you is not unknown.
What's the use of posing as a ped.
ant with a dime novel taste? Mental.
ity does not need labelling, and you'll
never convince the person with brains
that you prefer Darwin to the
Duchess.
What's the use of being a eat to
your best girl friend because of
man? The girl will get even and the
man sees through you.
What's the use of running your
health to crafty your ambition? The
quicker a woman learns the unhappi.
ness of life when half ill the bigger
chance she stands of success.
What's the use of spending money
on skin specialists and digestive tab.
let's while dallying with the things you
shouldn't eat?
What's the use Of playing young
when the years have you in their grip?
Age is not so unlovely that the aging
should treat it as a disgrace. Far
better a charming old woman than
pitiable mimicry of youth.
What's the use of getting down on
your luck? There is nothing like a
smile TO boost you out of the mire.
What's the use of kicking? 1t does
MT make life any sweeter to tf4nk
yourself victim-nor does it increase
your popularity.
What's the use of cultivating auto
mobile tastes on a walking income?
There's joy and health in a good walk
if you once fight the speed craze.
What's the use of striving for the
big puddle when you would be so
much happier in the small one. Learn.
ing ones limitations saves heartache
What's the use of reading reams on
the thinning process with a taste for
candy and potatoes fully gratified?
Equally, what's the use of a fortune in
stays and uncurbed appetite and lazi
ness?
What's the use of slipshod work?
This is an age that demands our
best; if we give counterfeit we pay a
counterfeiter's penalty.
What's the use of sham of any kind?
One need not be brutally rude to be
sincere. 1t is the unframed taste that
prefers ormolu to the gold nugget.

Wife's Curiosity Rebuked.

A special dispatch, from Washington,
d. c., of recent date says: A wife should
not go through her husbands pockets
and take from them letters written 10 her
husband by other women, is the opinion
of Judge Mullowney, expressed in the
police court few davs ago, when the
case Of Mrs. Laura Jackson, accused Of
assaulting Mr.. Elton Jackson, her hus
band, came up Jackson told the court
that his wife had found letter in his
pockets while he was asleep, written by
another woman. and thereafter she ''came
at him like a tiger"
Two years ago Judge Mulowney ruled
in the police court that it was woman's
right to go through her husbands pock-
cts when he was asleep and help herself
to the money which she might find
there, and that the husband was nothing
more than a domestic migrate" if he
resented it. The distinction between
money and letters written by other women
is clearly drawn by the court, so far as
the rights Of wives is concerned.
