The Successful Wife.

1t is becoming more or less rare to
hear of an ideally happy marriage,
and this state of things gives one fu-
riously to think" as they say in
France 1t may be due to the fact
that, although love is easy to gain, it
requires tact and care on womans
part to retain it.
So many girls think that, directly
the wedding ring is actually their own
they need no longer trouble them
selves to be as charming to their hus-
bands as they were in counting time.
The girl who wants to become q
thoroughly happy wife, loving and be-
loved, must tax her strength and pa
thence to attract and please her hus-
band, regardless of the worries Of
everyday life, to show smiling face
in trouble, to be real pal" and TO
bear and forbear. These efforts must
inevitably be crowned with success,
and the effort is well worth while
