SIDE TALK S
Elastic Bands and QuarrcIs.
BIZ RUrH CAMERON.

Elastic Bands and Quarrcls.
For to be wroth with one we love
doth work like madness in the brain. -
Somehow or other we fell to talking
about quarrels between married folks
the other evening.
OF course the woman whose hus-
band never said a cross word to me-
was represented. Il don't see what
people quarrel about" she said. I'VE
never quarrel"
One knows not whether to marvel
or doubt when people say that never
said-a-cross-word sort of thing.
l once visited a woman who made
that claim and her husband certainly
said some things that | should have
called cross. And she folded her lips
up in a manner that indicated just as
much irritation and resentment as if
she had spoken.
Another member of our group said
that she and her husband didn't really
quarrel either, but she was honest
enough to confess that it was merely
because he shut up and refused to
answer her when She got mad.
Il don't suppose you've had any
quarrels yet" some one said, turning
to the last years bride.
Yes. we have she said land I
was just going to say L really love
them
Love them." repeated the never
The last years bride nodded. MAX

While to quarrel she said. I'VE new

after a quarrel. It's like the wonder
full sunshine you get after a thunder
storm has cleared the air. She turn
ed to the Lady-who always knows
somehow. Don't you think SOP"
The Lady smiled. Don't thunder
storms sometimes do damage that not
even beautiful weather afterwards can
compensate for" she asked. Then,
! from about the tape measure in her
work basket she produced an elastic
band IF I stretch this band way out
it comes back with snap she said
/ THAT quarrel-you stretch your re-
lationship and it proves its strength
by coming back with a snap. But if
you go on stretching it. it won't come
back quite so strongly and by and by
it will lose some of it's resiliency and
by ana by a little more. So. if you
want to keep it strong and resilient
you mustn't stretch it any more than
YOU have to. That's the way L look
at it,
The last years bride looked
thoughtful. 81 wouldn't have it lose
its strength for anything on earth, -
said she.
II don't think there's much danger"

"a dusty place." the people say,
with nothing fine to see,
But oh, the sights of Main street
Are wonderful to me!
In oranges the grocer Keeps
A hoard of pirate gold.
And rainbow moons from fairy skies
The drugstore windows hold
The harness makers wooden horse
Stands patiently all day,
The tailor's little waxen man
BY night rides him away,
The barber had a wonder seed
He planted in the ground;
The giant candy stick that grew
Keeps turning round and round.
The peanut man is lucky, too,
He owns the strangest toy
A cart with one bright winking eye
It whistles like boyl
There's magic here in Main street
The hurdy gufdy sings
And through the dust, if you will look,
You may see splendid thingsi
