It is not quite ideal for the man of
the house to do his work at home.
For his personal convenience and COM
fort it is preferable that he should do
1t elsewhere. The temptation to run
in upon him, to read a letter. tell a
bit Of news or ask advice. is too great
for the average woman to overcome.
Also, he gains something in the es-
timation of the family by going away
in the morning and returning at
night, while for himself there is the
manifest advantage of a charming and
restful change of scene when he steps
within his front door to be stormed
upon with kisses by the children and
welcomed by his true comrade and
partner on the road.-Woman's Home

PECULIAR PRAYER TO COURT
Error Of stenograPher Responsible for
Few More Gray Hairs in
Head of Lawyer.

"They say that a lawyer has been
saved by his stenographer," said an
attorney, at a recent lecture. That
is true, undoubtedly, because a law
yer's stenographer, who is observing,
gets many points of law out Of her
work.
But there is another side to it that
must not be overlooked, and that is
the mistakes that a lawyers stenog-
rapher makes. The law terms are so
technical that it is not within reason
to expect the stenOgrapher to get ev-
erything exactly right.
zone of the most amusing errors
that have ever heard Of in connec-
ton with stenographic errors, if may
call It that, occurred in a certain law
ONCE the other day. The case was a
divorce action, in which the plaintiff
alleged cruel and inhuman treatment.
plaintiff. being a woman with all
the common law disabilities, prayed
the court fer temporary alimony and
suit money The prayer was dictated
to the stenographer and she wrote 1t
out and mailed it to the court.
Shortly afterward, the lawyer
CHANGED to read copy and found to
his horror that the stenographer had
made the prayer one for alimony and
soup money"

into the possession Of the duke of
Mantua, who purchased it for $4,000

great social events under the Arch
