" HE why of the nagger has
Just been scientifically as

Most of us who suffer from this
affection have been of the opinion
that it is Just pure and unadulter-
ated cussedness that makes a
nagger nag. A learned psycholo-
gist says that this is a mistake,
and that nagging is brain itch,
and that a person suffering from
this complaint tries to relieve it
by scratching with the tongue.
and, as it is impossible to scratch
the brain itself. he or she tries
TO allay the irritation by scratch

The brain" says this scien-
fist, can be irritated just the

our own experience. Probably
there is no one who does not
know what it is to have flashed
out, in some moment Of physical
exhaustion, a bitter speech that
he or she would have given
worlds to have recalled the next
instant, or who does not expert
ence the temptation it is to harp
on old grievances when one is half
sick and nervous, and unstrung?
Nagging is at the bottom Of al
most all domestic misery. It
breaks UP far more homes than
drink or infidelity. A woman can,
and does, forgive the husband who
looks too often upon the flowing
bowl if he is pleasant and agree
able at home in the times between
his sprees. A wife is also con-
veniently blind to her husbands
sidestepping from the straight
and narrow path If in his own
domestic circle he is courteous,
gallant and appreciative. Like
wise a man will put up with a
deal of bad housekeeping and
pay extravagant bills without a
murmur so long as his wife is
amiable, and good humored, and
doesn't try to henpeck him.
But the woman who comes to
hate her husband is she who is
married TO the man who is Chief
Knocker in the Amalgamated
Hammer Wielders' Union, and
who finds fault with everything
that she does, or doesn't do. The
woman who kills her husbands
love, and brings him to the place
where he feels that he is enter
ing a prison when he puts his key
in his own front door, is the per-
petual crouch, who frets and
whines, and complains because
she can't have this, and she can't
do that, and her husband does do
this, and he doesn't do that. Love
will stand everything but nagging.
When it encounters that, it just
turns up its toes and dies.
uggest Recreation.
Heretofore there has seemed to
be no cure for this most common
and deadly enemy Of domestic
happiness, but the discovery of
this scientist that nagging is
really a symptom of a brain dis
order that can be relieved brings
a message of hope to those af-
flicted with a nagging husband or
wife.
Therefore, madam, # you have
a husband who begins finding
fault before he has hung up his

hat when he comes home OF an
evening. don't weep and look
upon yourself as a martyr.
Just reflect that he is suffering
from brain itch, and that the best
remedy for that is fresh air and
exercise and amusement. Don't
try to keep him at home. Urge
him to go out to the baseball
game Of an afternoon. to play golf
or to go to the club as soon as
dinner is over.
In that way his brain cells will
get the stimulation they need,
and he will take out in yelling
bitter advice TO the umpire. or
swatting a ball, or fighting with
a fellow club member over the
tariff, the irritation that he would
otherwise have vented upon you
and the children, and the chances
are that he will come home in a
mild and pacific humor. Believe
me, golf has been the salvation of
many a home, and the club is a
conservator, instead of destroy
er of family life.
And, sir, If you are one of the
unlucky ones who drew nag
ging wife in the marriage lot
terry, try making her over instead
of hunting up an affinity to con-
sole you.
Don t Rush Off.
When your Maria starts in TO
remind you for the billionth time
of all your faults. don't go out
alone and slam the door behind
you. Take her along with you.
Consider that her poor brain is
itching until it is half mad with
the monotony of the treadmin Of
housework. where she has gone

round of cooking, and sewing.
and mending. and baby tending,
until she is so bored that she is
ready to fight just to get a little
ginger interjected into life.
Give her something gay and
pleasant to think about. Take her

at a restaurant. If you can't do
anything else go 10 see the NOV

store in town and tell her how

an imported French dress, if you
had the money
In a word, scratch the nagger's
brain cells with something pleas
ant TO think about if you want
to escape being clawed yourself
The suggestion is worth trying

sales clerks do not cooperate with the

you before me here, stand between the

are as many kind of clerks as there are
men. But all of them belong to only
two classes. The first is the kind we want
and the second. the kind we do not want
1t is unfortunate that we cannot tell un-
til 1t is too late just which are the men
we do not want
1T is, however, up to every man in
this institution to make himself the man
we do want. That is a call to every one
of the younger men in the store particu-
larly. If you make yourself the kind of
a man we do want you'll be the kind of
a man that is wanted elsewhere by

Mr. Underwood went deeper into the
record of his opponent. He showed him
