IDLE WORDS.

Gossiping is often laid at the door
of women. It may be that their or
dinary occupations have narrowing
effect. They have not the same free
dom of mingling in the larger affairs
of the world that men have, and this
may lead to gossip in seeking escape
from the monotony Of life. But make
no mistake-gossip is not confined to
women, nor is their gossip the most
harmful. The gossip is dangerous
person. The vice is not stamped on
the face like that of drunkenness, ad-
diction to drugs and other vices. Ma
ture provides no immediate warning
against the gossip, who may have
genial manner and a pleasant smile.
The gossip-too often the slanderer-
never assumes responsibility for the
scandal uttered. The choice bit is in
troduced by the phrase, they say" or
81 heard" Enough truth is told to
make the tale plausible. The charac-
teristics which go to make the gos-
sip are largely envy and jealousy,
qualities found in. men and women
alike. There is desire to be thought
of more Importance than others with
an inward sense of ones deficiencies.
Idleness also is a prolific breeder OF
gossip. When mind and body are
busy, there is little room for idle talk.
If you are gossiped about, pay no at
tention to the matter, either to explain
or deny. Gossip, like muddy water,
will settle if not stirred up. Taking
notice of it keeps it alive. Plato
says: when men speak Ill of thee
SO live that no one will believe them y
Speak well of others when you can
otherwise keep silent.

 . WHY JOLLY MEN ; q HAVE PRlM WIVES. ; q . . . q Q . . . o . c . .

How many times 1t has been said, 'I don't see how that jolly, fun loving man ever married such prim sober woman" Yet nearly every witty man does marry a prim, little, old fashioned woman And how perfectly natural 1t all is.
 If a really witty man married a really witty woman neither would have time to appreciate the others fun or cleverness. witty man is more or less of clown, and a clown wants attention. He doesn't care to see other clowns or watch their pranks. He simply wants someone to watch and listen to him. another's lips, no matter how good it is-he wants to "get off" Ill his own wit, and all he expects his wife to do is to listen,
 No boy wants another to help him set off his fireworks, and no man needs a wife to help him to "set off his fun. If he is invited out for a social evening and his wife were as witty and as good a clown as he, then he would have to share his talent It would be said that Clever, witty MT. and Mrs. Blank are coming here tonight" instead of Mrs. Blank and her witty hu5- band are due here this evening""
 When a man who is brim full of fun calls upon a young girl he give him her undivided attention. If she insist in getting in some of her own wit and cleverness he spends a very dull evening and only half en- i joys himself, because he has said only half the things he intended to. She has taken the very words out of his mouth and made him throw over her some of his own limelight. The prim girl who simply giggles at everything he says just suits him. And there is no one on earth who can laugh so hard and so long as prim little lady, because she never gets off good joke or a bright remark herself, and there | fore doubly appreciates the funny things.
 Therefore when this prim girl gig gles and asks him to repeat one of his favorite stories the funny mans chest swells with pride, and he spends an evening never to be forgotten. He basks in his own limelight and its reflection. too. His heart and soul are touched. and something within him whispers, This is the wife I want. This wo- man appreciates me. She is really clever!"
