KEEPING HOUSE FOR ONES OWN COM.
FORT.
He was wise who wrote: "Half of
the sting of poverty or OF small means
is gone. when one keeps house for one 5
own comfort, and not for the comment
of ones own neighbors." Deny it as
We will, few Of us have the moral force
to set up standard of our own, based
upon our own incomes and our own par
ticular environments We commit the
folly of regulating our expenses by the
income of some one else. If the Browns
across the street hang up expensive lace
curtains, we are disconnected until lace
curtains have gone up to our windows,
no matter how much smaller our income
may be than that of the Browns. If the
Smiths put down velvet carpet our neat
and pretty ingram becomes an eye sore
to us. We are extremely mindful of
what our neighbors will think about
things which should not concern them in
the least. We have no standard of our
own. Our dress and even our tables
must be regulated by the standard Of
others. We have not the courage nor
the independence to be Indifferent to
the comments of our neighbors This
form of moral cowardice is causing a
great manv families to live beyond their
incomes. They can face debt and for
felt their self-respect easier than they
can face the unfavorable comments of
their neighbors and friends. The extent
to which this imitation of others is car
ried would be ludcrous, but it brings
so much unhappiness in its train. 1t is
very frequently the direct cause of dis
cord and discomfort and debt, that has
driven happiness from the family hearth
stone. Let us have a standard of our
own, based upon our own necessities,
and then let us cheerfully and bravely
adhere to this standard, needless of that
dreadful bugbear: What will our neigh
bors say?"

"Where shall draw the line2" says
the anxious parent, who is solicitious for
his boys future. Give the young man
the sympathetic companionship which
he will find elsewhere if not at home; en-
courage him to seek elevating and re-
fning associations; impress upon him the
fact that many amusements are bad only
in connection with their associations and
the atmosphere oftemptation which leads
to greater evil; demonstrate to him that
the principle of getting something for
nothing" is bad, wholly bad, and if fol-
lowed up. will inevitably lead to his
moral and physical ruin; make home
such bright, congenial place, that he
will find more pleasure there than in the
haunts of wickedness, and more than all
else, let him have in you an example of
uprightness and moral health. Be sin
cere, for he can penetrate your DISCUSSES
and despise you if you are hypocrite.

The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1912-04-12

Man is naturally a home loving ami
NAL In fact, most animals are home
loving. And when man asks woman
to share his life, 1t is usually taken as
gentle hint that he wants her to make
home for him and then take a general
oversight of his affairs. and a special
oversight of himself He likes to know
that she does things for him just for the
reason that she loves him. and is inter
ested in him and in his well being. He
loves his home more if there is some i'm
press of her personality upon it. He
likes best the meal that she prepares for
him. OF course, he says but very little
perhaps nothing-of all this, being
man.
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1912-04-12

MeddIesome persons who are contin-
ually prying into other peoples affairs
and carrying tales between friends and
acquaintance create great deal of mis-.
chief and are best contented when they
can spread scandal. 1t seems more nat
ural for them to speak i'll of person
than to utter words of praise, and their
habit of gossping becomes so fixed that
they can talk about scandals uncon-
sciously, and, apparently, without an ef'
fort. 1t is Just as easy to say a
good word for friends and acquaint-
ances, even if not wholly deserved, as it
is to speak i'll of them. and the effect on
the community is always beneficial in a
general way. Scandal gathers as it
travels by word or mouth and can never
be recalled when once in circulation.
Try speaking well of every one and see
what change it will make in your own
happiness, as well as the welfare of
others

Had they been subjected to much heat in all probability they would have bursted and a disastrous explosion have re- suited.

He was teasing the animal at the time with his right hand that contained a stick, and for an instant forgot the location of his left hand, when it was suddenly seiZ- ed.
