Pleasures of Candle Liaht.

Candle light is living thing. Chill
lren are entranced by the sight of a
lighted Christmas tree. A room light
ed by an extravagant number of can
dies has an atmosphere of activity
such as cannot otherwise be produced.
The points of light excite the sense
of enjoyment. The aspect of the room
suggests thar the art of life has been
brought by its inhabitants to a high
pitch. 1t suggests French society. so
ciety in France before the revolution,
and the thought just adds that touch
of frivolity which separates US from
the workaday world and gives US a
sense of stolen pleasure.

ABOUT HUSBANDS AND WIVES
One Who Should Know Has a Few
Words to Say on Inter-
esting Subject.

In series of stories written by
Jean Pierre Perard, designated ths
most married man in the world, be-
cause he has % times led blushing
brides to the altar, are many things
Illuminating to men and women. Two
of his stories discuss men and women
who make the best husbands and
wives. In his own words:
Consideration for his wifes feelings
is the good husbands middle name
He doesn't bawl her out in public. I'm
fact he doesn't bawl her out at an
but if something goes wrong or he
thinks he isn't getting a square deal
gets it off his chest. He doesn't go
about with crouch bottled up.
He doesn't keep a strangle hold ON
the purse strings or dole out the
ShekelS as if he were sitting in Al
continuous game of penny ante, but
neither does he throw the clutch and
hit on all twelve cylinders.
When you come to face the facts
in the case at hand the good hus-
band is the one who heeds the advice
of the Good Book and doesn't let his
right hand know what the other does
or words to that effect.
The women who make the best
wives are the ones who see to a mans
comfort without making any fuss
about it. They're the ones who take
an interest in their husbands comingS
and goings without keeping tab on him
till he feels as if home were Jail and
she's the keeper.
They are strong-minded enough to-
keep husband in the straight and mar
row path, but they refrain from push
ing him too far or too fast.
To sum it up the women who make
the best wives are the ones who regard
marriage as an occupation or a profess

Not just because they are beauti-

because they beautify wherever they

In Picturesque Setting.

Unlike Malmedy, Montjoie aspires to
no political role. 1t rests it's claims
to fame in the picturesqueness of its
situation, and the charm of it's
medieval buildings bordering its mar
row streets. The Roer, here only a
shallow stream for three parts of the
year, ripping over a stony bottom,
flows through the town, and in some
places even under the houses! 1t is
swollen in the early spring by the
melting SHOWS of the Eifel, but it has
scooped out for itself so deep a chan
mel that floods are rare, as it sweeps
along with increased volume past
Duren and Juliers to join the Mouse
in Holland.
Surrounded by the most beautiful
forests of the Hertogenwald or Hohe
Venn, which completely screen the lit
tie town from view, the valley is so
narrow that a cricket ball might be
thrown from the height on which are
the ruins of the old castle to the oppO-
watch tower. This was placed where
it is because it allowed of a better
view up and down the valley in the
days when the robber counts of Reich
enstein levied toll on travellers even if
they did not completely plumber them.
The scenery is finest in the dicec-
ton of Kalterherberg, where the Per-
lenbach may be traced like a silver
thread as it flows through the wood to
join the Roer. This stream is called
the Pearl brook because the dukes of
Juliers used to derive from it the
pearls for which their treasury was
famous. It is true that mussels are
still found, but no one has claimed
for many long day to have discov-
cred pearl.
Quaint Buildings, Narrow Streets.
The little town is worthy of its set
ting. Against the rocky and pre-
cipitous sides of the mountains,
through which the river has cut way,
aided, perhaps, by volcanic action, the
inhabitants have run up lofty and
many-storied buildings, which seem
to aspire to reach the SUBMITS that
confine them in so small and cramped
a space. Houses of five and six stories
are quite common, and even loftier
ones may be found. The consequence
is that the main street, which at some
places is not broad enough to allow
of two carts passing each other, is at
all times of the day in the shade, and
that parIv in fho evening If is buried
in gloom. This is the more noticeable
because up to short time before the
war only oil lamps were used in the
public ways. Locomotion after dark
was attended with no small inconven-
ience, and even peril, for false turn
down one of the numerous passages
under the houses might easily lead to
a ducking in the river.
The houses, mostly in the rocco

W w to Belgium from the reStitu-
ton of her old possessions
in the Eifel, there can be no dispute
that the most picturesque townlet in
all those border regions of the former
duchies of Limburg, Juliers, and Berg
has passed at once into her hands in
+ the ancient and little-known, because
secluded, human habitation on the
Roer which bears the picturesque
name of Montjoie, writes Demetrius G.
Boulger in the London Graphic.
In the days of the Franks, before
milestones came into vogue, it was the
practice to mark the stages along the
main routes by erecting a pile of
stones, and sometimes it happened
that the spot selected was on field of
battle. These heaps or piles were
termed "Montjoie" from the Latin
words Mons Jovis, and when the name
Montjoie was incorporated in the bat
tle-cry of France it signified no more
than Forward st. Denis. The Burgun-
dian battle-cry, "Montjoie st. Andre"
of the same period, was only Forward
ST. Andrew. Baedeker's plausible
suggestion that the Romans built
fortress here and gave it highsound-
ing name may be relegated to the or
der of fairy tales.
Montjoie then was nothing more
than a stage or resting point on the
high road of the Franks across Aus
trasia to the Rhine. Situated in a
gorge of the upper Roer, it gave the
easiest access from the south to the
centers of Frank, not Teuton, culture
