.Daysey Mayme
AndHer F olks
By FRANCES L. GARsIDE.

Until daughter has reached Ire
ripe age OF ten her home just
suits her
In her childish mind il is the plsre
where mother is and all wrongs are
arbitrated. There is a kitchen whe r.
cookies and pies are made. a dinil
room with a table where she sees f.
Their twice a day, and a bedroom
where she sleeps nights and where
she keeps all her dolls and things.
1t is after she has passed ten the
she begins to realize there is also
parlor; its Importance grows with
her years, and before she has reached
sixteen it has become the most impoT-
ant part of the house, ard her special
territory.
1t is then there begins a dispute
between mother and daughter that
threatens to last till death. but which
is ended by the mother yielding. As
result Of her concession the old
fashioned center table, the what-not
and other pieces Of furniture she had
as bride are moved TO her bed room
Mothers things" are never of any
value till after mother is dead ana
a step mother takes possession.
Daysey Maymo Appleton had won
out with her mother and all her
mothers things had been removed.
but she found she had greater OBJ
stacle in her fgh. to make her parlor
artistic. That obstacle was the gen
crosby Of her friends.
Daysev Mayme stood in the center
of the room and wept bitterly.
II mast let that picture OF Ma
poleon with a red coat and purple
frame stay on the wall or the friend
who gave ii will be offended. / will
make "A lasting enemy il I take down
that chrome with hig gilt frame.
and the friend who gave me that
framed hair wreath calls regularly to

II want to keep my friends Life
would be desert waste without
friends. but that goldfish tank is
hideous, and that pink table cover
with blue fringe is enough to make
one long for enemies. for at least
they do not make gifts
Those garish-colored cushion COW
ers; that hand painted china plaque;
that big glass vase; that framed pho
tograph; that motto worked in pur-
pie and blue yarns on gold card
board, are all the gifts Of dear friends
and IL would hurt their feelings II

How grateful I should be that / have

License to Eat Onions.

The average woman regards matr.-
mony as license to wear mother hub
bard wrappers. eat onions. and tel
ler husband home truths about him
self that he doesn't want TO hear.
The average husband considers that
the wedding ring entities him to treat
his wife with less consideration than
he does the scrubwoman OF his office.
The average home is a place whera
everybody comes to dump down al
the i'll temper and bad manners and
grouchiness that they would nos
dream of exhibiting in public.
Social intercourse in the average
family is conducted along aboriginal
lines of grunts. and grumbles. and
knocks. Nobody takes the trouble 20
make himself understood or spares
anothers feelings.
Is it any wonder that all who can
flee from such an abode Of dullness?
Is il surprising that the man of the
family should develop sick friends
and business engagements that call
him downtown of an evening, or that
the bitterest complaint Of the domes-
tic woman Is that she has no latch

sion, and draw picture not good to
