groups of men here and there have ex-
celled in the art of conversation, but
they were not average men and they
were not oratorically minded, as is the
average man in this country. The
average woman approaches people and
rents without any preconceived ldeaf
making them seem alive and enlivening
them with happy phrases, and often
Illuminating what she says with a deep
mimicry.
Especially is the average wife a
better gossip than the average husband.
A terrible blight falls over the average
male in the bosom of his family. Out
side, in the club, he may be charm
ing talker, and the orator in him who
uses symbols for thought temporarily
dies. But enter the home, and you find
him dealing out sententious comment,
;nstructing, lecturing, striving to mould
the Joyous and new-minded individ-
ualities of his sons and daughters into
heaven knows what forlorn and convey
tionalized image of what boy and girl
ought to be. This passion for instruct
ing, by the average husband, is what
causes the bird of JOY TO depart IN

liyten. Perhaps the first duty Of wife
is to take her husband seriously. The
wise woman realizes that since her hus-
band has probably come 10 stay his
peculiarities have come with him, and
as long as his love for instructing his
wife and children continues she had
better stfe any desire for iippancy.
"Here is the real reason that people
have for saying that women have no
sense of humor. AS long as the
husband is sententious a sense of hu-
MOI in the home would be as danger
Gus as dynamite. There are many
young girls who start out well equipped
in this respect, but marriage changes
all that. Blasphemous laughter, which
shows disrespect for a mans opinion,
kills his self-respect and his love for
his wife at one and the same instant,
just as one ribald laugh would wilt the
foweriest alumni after dinner speaker.
"The home is the only place a man
can enjoy that gratifying feeling of su-
periority which the platform speaker
has over his audience, if that happens

However kindly, and her little joke at
his expense, however sffectionate or
sprightly, is the deadly enemy Of this
superiority. Only equals may laugh at
each other.
at is the sententiousness of the male
that makes children leave home and that
kills wives. Indeed. the husband and
father is rare who never offends this
way, for the orator is latent in almost
every man, and marriage and father
hood is apparently the acid which de-
velops in the negative of his character
There is nothing over which a man may
not be sententious. just as there is
nothing over which a man cannot make
