make the very best of ourselves. Our

odds and ends between out of sight. We
do not let ourselves yield to impatience.

characters come out. They dominate us
We let them exhibit US quite shamelessly

reticence Is to be commended. Do not
let US give ourselves too much away, nc,
even to our nearest and dearest. Re-
serve is a good thing to keep.

and the affairs of household should
be toward one end-making the work
easier for the housekeeper. Frequently
one fishes around for a pencil with
which to. add the grocer's bill or jot
down some item of Importance. and then
discovers the point to be broken. Out
comes the butcher knife to hack away.
