simpler clothes, and q mothey who
was jolly and had time to enter into
her little plans than she Is with a
lot Of 'fuffy ruffles, and a mother
who has worked so hard making
them that she Is SO nervous that
she is as cross and irritable as a
sore-headed bear?
;Do you think that It makes any
difference to the baby whether its
clothes are handmade or machine
made. or whether you sit up at
night and watch It sleep instead OF
going, downstairs. and spending a
cheerful evening trying to make
home agreeable to your husband?' 20
IF you will look about you, you
will perceive that the adored wives
and mothers are never the women
who are the notable housekeepers
in whose houses there Is never a
speck of dust. nor anything awry.
Neither are they the women who
are celebrated as famous cooks.
Neither are they the so-called de-
voted mothers who worry them
selves to death watching over their
families.
They are the women who take
life easily, who keep themselves
tuIly and good-natured. and who
are always ready to pal with their
husband and children and go of On
any sort OF a frolic.
These women don't make mar
tyrs of themselves to their fami-
lies. After all, you know, as a
matter Of fact. our, families are not
cruel and inhuman monsters who
enjoy seeing US suffer or desire US
TO sacrifice ourselves to them. They
would much rather have US all
comfortable together.
1T makes your martyrdom 80
useless. That's the pity of II. Now
one reason that your nerves are In
fiddle strings Is because you lack
sleep. You persist in sitting up
every night until Bob. and Sally
come home from their parties. no
matter how late II is.
will you tell me what good that
does? Either Sally or Rob are
trustworthy, OF they are not. II
they are coming home straigh,
from their parties, you don't have
to watch out for them. II they
are not watching is useless and
your sitting up and losing sleep
doesn't help the matter. You don't
know where they are. You have
nn means OF reaching them. You
could not prevent them from doing
anything they wanted to do. All
that Il mother can do Is tn instiIl
good principles into her children
and bring them up with decent
ideals, and if she has done that,
she can 20 TO bed and 20 to sleep

There Is nothing TO it unless you

cease sacrificing yourself for them
