sions OF affection as the hearts or
which We are most sure. There is no
place where rudeness or incivility is
so objectionable as inside our own
doors. Between husband and wife
there should be maintained without
break or pause the most perfect cour-
tesy, the gentlest attention, and the
most unselflsh amiability.'"
The Long siIences.
Mr. Miller laments, too, the long 81
lences between husband and wife.
Some pass weeks and months to-
gether In almost unbroken silence.
They will travel long Journeys side by
side In the railway train and utter
scarcely a word In the whole dis
lance. Husbands ought TO have SOME
thing interesting to say when they
come into their homes from the busy
world outside. They are usually
genial enough In the circles OF busi-
ness or politics or literature, and are
able TO talk so as to interest others.
ought they not TO be as genial In
their own homes? Most women, too,
are able to talk In general society.
Why. then. should a wife fall into
such mood OF silence the moment
she and her husband are alone?"
Why They Never Quarreied.
He tells story OF an amusing ar.
rangement which worked successfully
in preventing family quarrels.
"A couple agreed among them
selves that whenever the husband
came home little out of temper he
would wear his hat on the back Of his
head; and then the wife never said a
word. II she came home a little cross
she would throw her shawl over her
left shoulder. and he never said a
word. So they never quarreled. -

His Three Wishes

His name was Jones or, II you pre-
Ter, let is be Smith or Brown, Along
with lots OF other fool folks. he was
constantly wishing for the roses in
the yard next door and for the job OF
the man across the street and the
money OF the banker at the corner
Got TO be such a fixed habit that II
grew monotonous for the fairies TO
hear daily outpuring OF futile long
ing from the same ccaseless source.
So one fine morning up popped a
member OF the Wizards union. with
the usual incarnation and the conven-
tional prefer OF three wishes.
But first, | want TO warn YOU" re-
marked the stranger from nowhere
that you're far better off than you
imagine.
"A few thousand years ago a grand
father OF mine did favor for fell
low named Midas, and since then
there's tradition in our family that
you cant satisfy any man. Pick out
your three wishes"
But before Jones Cor Smith or
Brown and could get into action ne
suddenly felt violent pain In his left
hiscupid and another in the pit OF his
stomach and terrific twinge In his
right leg.
my time is limited" remarked the
stranger, hurry and make your de.
mands. What would you rather have
than anything in the world?"
II wish that this darned tooth would
stop aching: that the pain in my
stomach would cease. and that this
COMPOUNDED rheumatism was gone"
What would you have asked for??-
