This Is My 87th Birthday
EMILE OLIVIER.

Emile oliver, who was French pre-
mier during the war with Prussia in
1870, but who has been almost forgot
ten by people outside of France, was
born in Marseilles, July 8, 1925. He
became a member of the Paris bar and
was elected to the Chamber of Depu-
ties in 1857. In 1869, M. Olivier was
invited by the Emperor Napoleon III.
to form ministry. Less than a year
later the declaration of war against
Prussia, and it's disastrous results, led
to the overthrow of the Olivier gov
eminent. M. Olivier deemed it pru-
dent after the fall of the empire to re-
tire to his estate in the south of
France where he resided for a consid-
cradle time with his family, devoting
his time to literary pursuits. He has
been a distinguished member of the
French Academy since 1874. OF late
years the former statesman has been
engaged in writing an exhaustive his
tory of France, of which seventeen
volumes have already been published.

Heart toHeart
Talks.
CONSULT YOUR WIFE.
By EDWIN A. NYR.

II you contemplate some important
step in business without consulting
your wife
Don't.
Her woman's insight is likely to be
worth as much as your deliberate rea-
soning.
Some one says:
When man has toiled step by
step up a fight of stairs to the top of
some accomplishment he will be sure
to find woman, though she may not
be able TO tell how she got there
A man reaches his conclusion by
the slow steps of deliberate logic. In
stinctively a woman reaches it by a
single bound
Especially is the average woman
quick to see the right and wrong of
proposition. Jumping over subtle dis
tinctions and evasiye phrasing. she
lands at once on the sure ground OF
eternal rightncss.
Ethically woman is n seer.
Most of all, clear and wide are the
eyes of n wife in n matter involving
the good name of her family.
When in doubt consult your wife.
4 wife's Judgment is usually good In
business matters. With her keen in
sight into human nature she often
will be able to tell you whether or not
you may trust a man.
Give your honor into her keeping.
There was Victoria Colonna. one Of
the strong women OF history. Her
husband was a loyal friend OF the
great Charles V. At one time Colonna
was offered the crown of Naples If he
would join the league against Charles
Though strongly tempted. he asked
his wife's advice. She babe him reject
the offer.
queen.
But most wives would!
Because the project meant base be-
trayal and treachery. and the heart of
a true woman IS turned against such
baseness.
Even from a prudential point of
view the advice of Colonna's wife was
good. To be promised thing is not
always to get 1T.
MAKE your vile your patlHer.
She is your best friend. the most
vitality concerned in your outcome. She
is your most competent and honest
counselor. II she is normal woman
she will keep your feet out of the mire
of wrongdo1ng.
Take no important step without a
conference with her. She will be glad
and proud to have your confidence and
may be able to suggest ways and
means of accomplishment
1.-TWO heads are better than one
especially if one Is a woman's head.

A BIBLE VERSE.

Il Surprised the Boy Who Boosted Of
His Wonderful Memory.
A boy who had won a prize for
learning Scripture verses and was
greatly elated thereby was asked by
q minister IL it took him a long time
to commit them.
"Oh, no." said the boy boastfully; II

Can you. indeed? And will you
learn one for meT
Yes, sir"
"Then in FIVE minutes from now /
would like very much to hear you re-

Of Esther:
