By not bounding him into cor

tons.
By never admitting in his presence
that boy is capable Of undetermined
doing,
By suggesting to him that if he
ever felt any superiority to any hui
mau being that he 60 upstairs and
take a bath and get over it.
By intimating that no one is ever
offended by refined language and
decent manners.
By maintaining great respect
for any reserve he may have at

By respecting him as an individ-
ual.
By realizing that he has his own
leadings, intuitions, tastes and pref
erences, and that he may be an
older, more inspired soul than l am.
By praising him very often.
By leaping upon him and chang
ing conditions on the minute when
he slumped.
By everlasting sharing with him
the great universal joke.
By understanding when he was
bored by Millions "Comus," and by
being thrilled when he chose to
read it.
By loving him when he came from
the boiler works covered with SCOT
and by continuing my affection when
he was in fresh linen.
By accepting at home all the
courtesies l wished to have him dis
tribute abroad.
By running along with him in the

social affairs, cookery, and every
thing from boilers to trench NOR

Heart Beats
By A. X.

Why do the June brides
Tippy-toe and tremble?
Why do they laugh
Historically and coy?
Why do they effervesce
With chaotic joy?
And gamble in futures
A. the gay wedding feast?
All me!
Nest of them know
Although they're
Not telling
That husbands
Are matter of chance
Anc not choice.
Each one wants
A lever,
A diplomat,
A scholar,
A gentleman,
A fighter,
A man of the day.
Each hopes for a comrade
Yet she trembles
AS she crosses
The threshold of Love.
Sh, knows upon entering
Her marital castle
That what she
Has longed for
Nav never be found.
He may,
OF course,
Ee a joy forever,
And he may be the kind
She has loathed
And dispised.
Hs may be as animated
AS a clam,
Or an oyster
He may break all
Commandments,
And fib like a trooper,
Or stay out at night
With the plea of business,
When you know
That in eight hours
He has earned
His small pay.
But Love is so blind.
They know they're
Not seeing
Until once the threshold
OF marriage is crossed,
Then
Their sight will be clearer,
Their husbands much dearer-
Or
On the other hand,
They may
Find a wolf in sleeps garb.
But women are gamblers
Good sports,
Take chance
Dive under deep waters,
Come up with their winnings.
Some bring out rare pearls
And some only
Clam shells. SELAH.
