A Case in Point.

expects her to be happy and sat

than the housework, and looking
forward TO his coming home OF an

or a new hat he bats her extrav-
agance Gradually he comes to
stand in her mind for a kllljoy,
and her home seems sort Of Jail.
She is young and full Of the joy
Of living. and her natural instinct
for pleasure is not to be denied,
so she begins to find il on the
outside Of her home She begins
to buy fnery OF which her hus-
band knows nothing; to go to
places Of amusement OF which he
never hears: to make acquaint-
ances with men Of whom she
never speaks to him.
Tho women who write mash
notes to actors. who dance with
strange men at afternoon tea
rooms, who carry on clandestine
spondence, who lunch with
other men than their husbands at
restaurants. and who are always
looking out for a Irritation are in
variably women married to men
who do not realize that some
amusement is as necessary to

stick in-the- mud husband with
out feeling like shouting to him,
Lead her not into temptation"
for that's exactly what he's do
ing. And when she goes wrong
he's more to blame than she is.
There is this other case also: A
man marries a tender, loving,
warm hearted girl to whom affec-
ton is as the sunshine to a flow

to her, but he is one OF the clam
type of men who keep every emo

Avoid Temptation.

And take the case Of where the
man is the sinner: A young man
who is genial and broad minded.
and generous. marries a woman
who is narrow and prejudioed and
stingy. The first thing that she
does is to drive all of his old
friends away from him. The next
thing is to terrorize him SO he's
afraid to ask even his own mother
to come to the house Everything
he wants to do she puts the veto
on. If he takes her out to a res
taurant she Is afraid they're
spending too much. II he takes
her to the theater she's worrying
lest they shut the cat up in the
pantry. She makes home the
most unpleasant spot on earth
to him, and so naturally he begins
to stay away from it.
When he wants to enjoy him

from his own domicile as possible
and he doesn't take wife along.

in the woman to whom he is
married, and he finds it in some
other woman. and wife goes TO
Reno, and considers herself very
much misused, when, in reality,
she is the sinner
And there is the other cast Of
the woman who nags. She may
really love her husband and be
doing it for his own good, only
none OF US ever recognize the
value or persecution. She tor
ments him about everything he
does, and leaves undone, until he
flies to some other distraction
simply for self preservation. You
may be sure Of this, that very

cial. She is creature Of warm
human sensibility, of hungry
craving for tenderness and love.
She wants TO be petted, TO be
fiattered, to be told that she's the
sun, moon and stars to her hus-
band, and that he would die with
out her.
She is heart hungry. She IL
starving for affection, and along
comes some man who makes
fervid and violent love to her.
and as a result, there's another
domestic tragedy. Yet is such a
woman any more to blame than
the starving wretch who steals
the loaf Of bread that is put
within her reach? Isn't the cold
and callous husband who has
been too busy and too much alb
sorbed in his own pursuits to show
her any real affection the one
who is most guilty. Hasn't he
led her into temptation?
Doesn't every man who does
not deliberately try to make his
wife happy lead her into tempta-
ton? Lots of wives are unfaith-
full to good men but I never
yet heard Of a woman who was
unfaithful to a husband who was
really good to her-and being
good 10 a woman doesn't mean
merely retaining from beating
her and giving her food and
clothes. It means ministering to
the wants Of her soul and heart
just as much as her body.
