Feeling Above Ones
NeighbOrs
BY Annie Laurie.

She was poor once herself-and now,
her husband having made money, she
feels above her old neighbors.
He was stone mason and she used
to do her own work-and never dream
ed of having company for supper un-
less it was some old aunt or some one
just over from the old country. She
went to church on Sunday and to the
church society meetings on week days,
and she always helped get the supper
at the annual bazaar-and with that
social life she was perfectly satisfied
but now
Well, what "but nowi"

in bigger house if her husband has
the money to pay for iti Why should
she edo her washing" when she can
afford to hire somebody else to do it2
Would you1 Honest and true, now,
would youY I dom believe it.
Or, if you would, then 1 think you
would be a very silly woman; and one
who didn't deserve the good fortune
her husband is pouring into her lap.
What's the use of mans making a
fortune if his wife won't help him
spend itf
Not because she has money now
when she had none once, but because
she is sensible enogh to know what
to do with money when she gets it.
Maybe she likes books, music, pictures
perhaps she is tired of hearing about
the weeks washing and the week IS
fruit canning. Maybe she likes to learn
something new once in a while-why
not2
Her husband may not be the only
one in the family with brains enough
to get out of hard, wearing work.

it; no more than any other work. But
this particular woman may not care for
hOusework. Ought she to keep on do.

just to please you and her neighbors,

Come, come, old neighbor-dOn t

No one life has joy enough in it to
go around-borrow a little from the
old neighbor-get her to tell you how
she lives, what she does, how she likes
it all.
