 Dear Mrs. Thompson: My sister is fourteen years old and she has come to live with us. Mother died a short time ago and my father has been dead for several years. My husband does not make ., lot of money by any means, but he is willing to add my little sister to his burdens and to provide for her since she has no money.
 We have three little children and they take a great deal Of my time Sister seems busy with her school work, but it seems to me sho ought to be able to spare time from 1t to help me with the dishes, ironing and cleaning. Do you think I would he unfair ito her if insisted? She likes to sit around and read and it makes her cross when I ask her to do things. get very tired doing things alone and it would be 9 great help if she spent only an hour or two a day helping. Do you think it would be wrong for me to ask 1t of her?
 MRS. H.
 It would be a good thing for your sister to learn to help. Talk to her in nice way and let her see that
 
 thing for you in return for what you are doing for her. Children are sensitive and kindness goes long way in getting them to do what they should do. Probably she does not realize the situation. Confide in her and I think you will have less diff culty.

 The essay quoted yesterday said: "A good. real. unrestfained, hearty Ia ugh is a sort Of glorified internal message, performed rapidly and auto matieaIIy. It mantpulates and re- yitaaies corner and rhexplored crannies of the system that are unre- sponsive to most other exercise methods There is not the remotest corner or little inlet of the minute blood vessels that does not feel some wavelet from the eonvulsioa caused by good, hearty laughter

 The Simple Home Wedding
 Tt has always seemed an error Of judgment for the family of limited means to lavish so much Ir oney on the wedding as to leave little for eh e brea and butter and beefsteak days to follow. A dainty. pretty wedding there should be, but one that leaves no aftermath of unpleasant mem prise and unpad bills in it's wake.
 In the city flat or small home there is no use in trying to duplicate the imposing ceremonies that are suitable in baronial holdings. Fort nately for the hostess who wishes have everything done in good tase but who is limited in space or peck etbo ok, simplicity is considered the acme of good breeding. A description of on e extremely pretty wedding of a young business woman in a small city flat may prove suggestive toothers sim ilarly situated.
