 small home. or start business, or send promising son to college. When the step has been once taken many q wife finds it difficult to return to the routine of home duties, thereby giving up her weekly wage, which came in 50 handly in the family upkeep.
 Most husbands are grateful to the loving wife who so nobly takes upon herself Il share of the burden of sup port. Occasionally there is one who does not seem to realize or appreciate her sacrifice in this direction. The home of the woman who works outside of it all day long is never quite the coZy doveeote of the woman who can remain in it giving all her time and at tention to it. There are wives who could not earn dollar outside of the home If their very lives depended on it. Who shall say whether the general run of husbands love the "clinging vines best or not? No woman can do two things well at one and the same time. If q wife has evolved into business woman, the home tells the story more plainly than words. Each detail of housekeeping gets but lick and a promise. Time and strength forbids anything else. The home at mosphere melts away slowly, but sure ly. The wife is too fretted by many a little annoyance of the day to rush to the door at the sound of her hus- bands latehkey to give him a hug and kiss. More than likely he is the first to enter the gloomy, shutup rooms.
 Where a home, for any cause, be- comes desolate. existence within it's walls is unsatisfying; when this oc- CUTS, g0odly share of affection is apt to crumble with 1t. The business wife forgets all too soon her pretty little artifices and coquetry-and these are the magnets which hold a mans heart in leash. The working wife gradually usurps the place of the husband who earns less as the head of the family.
 If sickness or sorrow falls upon husband, fncapaeitating him from SUD- porting the home and its inmates, a wife should heroically go forth to earn money, if she has the ability to do so Her husband will love her twice as dearly for her heroism and evidence of love for him. But unless 1t is neces- sity, most men do not care to have their wives wage-earners. The home with a full measure of love therein is most appealing to masculine natures.

Another woman, a slip of a girl in years, took notion to fly in an aero plane from Chicago to New York. Did she accomplish the daring feat? It took nerve a-plenty q world of cour- age. She faced the greatest peril in midair, long hours at a stretch. Had she allowed one wave of terror to sweep over her or permitted her hand to tremble, she would have been dashed to death. If there is won derful feat to be accomplished now adays that none but the bravest dare they are looking about for q woman to fulfill the mission. There always will be women who are afraid of q mouse but it isn't thought cute any more to acknowledge oneself as timid. The best of all is that even while engaged in these nerve-racking pursuits, women do not lose their femi- nism. They delight in exploiting their courage-that is all. But whatever they do, they will always be found lovable. Courageous sweethearts make the best of wives.

Died Of Premature
 Old Age!
(BY V. M. PIERCE. M. D.

How many times we hear of compara- lively young persons passing away when they should have lived to be 70 or 80 years of age. This fatal work Is usu- ally attributed to the kidneys, as, when the kidneys degenerate, 1t causes auto- intoxication. The more injurious the poisons passing thru the kidneys. the quicker will those noble organs be de- generated, and the sooner they decay.
 To prevent premature old age and promote long life, tighten the work of the kidneys by drinking plenty of pure water all day long, and occasionally talk ing Anuric (double strength) before meals. This can be obtained at drug stores. Anuric will overcome such con- dltions as rheumatism, dropsical swell ings, cold extremities, scalding and burning urine and sleeplessness due to constant arising.

Who Is 1t who declares women are umld creatures, screaming in terror, scared of their lives at the sight of a mouse? On the contrary, they are every whit as courageous as men and go through perils, earning their daily bread in positions which some men quail at tackling. There's the muni- ton factory, for instance. Hands were urgently wanted. There were not men or boys enough to fill the de- mands, yet the wages offered were temptingly high One young woman in an eastern city, read of the urgent need. She looked around at her little brothers and sisters of whom she was the only support. She was a seam stress. Try as she did, she found it difficult to make both ends meet. The resolve came to her to apply for the position. Her friends did their best
 to dfssuade her but she was firm.
 Tt is mans work" they argued :;
 'too perilous for woman" They
 argued in vain. She applied for q
 position in an ammunition factory. To
 the surprise of many. she secured it. She knew the danger. It had been pointed out to her. All the work re-
 quired was a steady eye, steady
 hand, steel-bound nerves and close ap- plication, she decided. No great strength was required. She put every l thought, her heart and soul into the 1 occupation. Her success as a high l wage earner spread far and wide 9th CT ambitious women Hooked to these factories by the hundred.
