Just right. I have had more wives than
the average man, and they always had
hired girls, and not one of them knew

how to treat those damsels. One of
my wives was too familiar. and another
too naughty, and so on. The most com
mon fault IS an excess of hauteur. The
average woman seems to take a de-
mOniac pleasure III ordering the suffer
ing domestic around after the manner
Of an empress of Russia. In this coun-
try people won't stand for that sort
of thing. and so the naughty females
spent most of their time trying to en-
gage new girls, and wondering why they
can't keep them when they get them.
"Other women are always on the look
out for errors. They'll sail into the
kitchen and paw around and raise old

there are no sins of omission or COM

some, and raise 4 riot anyhow. Women
of this sort seldom, if ever. find any
thing to praise. A girl may ruin her
shiTtwaist trying to please, and never
hear word of approval; but if she
drops an old three-cent glass tumbler,
that tumbler Immediately becomes
priceless cut glass. and YOU can hear

Home Is But 4 FOretaste.
Home Is the earthly expression Of
what we will find waiting for US after
death.
If you are letting the fretful tone
and the irritable mood and the nervous
habit destroy the comfort of your
household you are wasting the whole
effort of your life. the effort to bestOw
happiness.
If you sit down to a gloomy table,
where dependency and i'll temper pre-

stand in the bread line now, and take
your repast in the park. There, at
least, you would not depress others by
your presence
Irritating trifIes present themselves
to every life. They await US at every
corner along the journey.
They should be treated as trifles,
and brushed aside; not dignided to the
position of tragedies and permitted to
destroy the peace of a household, to
shadow feasts and darken the hours of
repose with bitter memories.

Money, education, position, power
all are worse than useless unless they
bring helpfulness and happiness to
others.
To do this they must be supple
mented by affection, good will, self
control. Though you give to your
family all the advantages wealth can
offer you are worse than a highwayman
if you deprive your household Of
peace, love and cOntentment in the
family circle. In this pursuit of beauty,
in this effort to find satisfaction for |
the beauty hunger which is born in |
every soul, there is an immortal phrase I
which may serve as the best guide: 4
