LISTEN, WORLD!
by ELSIE ROBINSON.

Some one asked me what 1 thought
the home of the future would be like.
Well. think several things, but, of
course, 1 know nothing. Perhaps I'll
laugh tomorrow at my theories of to-
day, but here's what 1 believe now.
think that the home will some day
come to breed, guard and refresh hu-
man spirits, instead of merely hous-
ing bodies. soup kettles, fishing tackle
and teething rings. The average home
is usually place where you park
yourself and store your junk. You
may have jolly time doing it, You
may be very fond of the other bodies
which are parked there and some of
the junk may be very valuable. But
it is of no more value to the inspira-
tional progress of the community
than well kept garage
I think the home of the future will
stop being hotel and become a home.
The people in those homes won't be
primarily wives and mothers. or hus-
bands and fathers-they will be hu-
man beings, fulfilling themselves happily
as individuals and serving others with
dignity and power. 1t will be a real
service.
Possibly the future wife won't make
her own soup or sew her own cur
tains or take care of her own baby
for the major part of the day. Why
should she? We have come to see. in
commercial and scientific life, that
doing chores" is neither wise nor
profitable and that man may waste
himself most wickedly by doing his
own janitor work. Why then should
we demand that wife prove her love
and loyalty by frying her own steak
Why not have community cooking,
done by experts. with better results
and less cost? Why not have experts
to bring up the baby of that future
home? Why not community nurseries
They would in no way lessen the

locked down at the bed. Presently
she opened her eyes. which gave him
his first bit of courage. because until
those eyes opened he was not so sure
tfat he was looking at his Merry.
The bronze curls had been tied tight

was still deathly pale. But as the

John backed away in awe.

Cultivating Trouble.

Some folks borrow trouble. some go
out looking for it, some can't be happy
without it, but of all the morbid pas
times of the average untutored Yankee
for whose exploitation most of the
queer or phony LITERATURE" of the day
is manufactured, there is none more
vicious in effect than the practice of
taking medicine to .'regulate' the
action of the bowel. One of the draw
backs about intelligence or education
is that it makes one conscious of
what one doesn't know; one of the
terrible handicaps about unenlighten-
ment or ignorance is that 1T keeps
one unconscious of that.
II have little girl thirteen years
old" writes one misguided mother.

something can do for her, and is it
dangerous for her to go two or three
days without taking physic?'

Education, knowledge and intelli-

and the like are responsible for most
of the constipation in the civilized
world. They simply frighten the
= anxious young parents into abusing
the infant with these harsh drugs
There is no danger whatever in wait
ing forty eight hours for nature to
take care of the bowel function in
any case; and commonly enough the
victim of the physic habit must wait
twice as long for nature to reaSSert
itself. The fancied danger from this
waiting is not nearly so real as the
danger from castor oil or any other
physic.
1t is perfectly true that many an
unfortunate infant, even in the we'll
to-do homes. is malnourished by being
fed something from a drug store in
stead of something with life in it
comparable with a baby's natural

constipated. 1t is also true that many
adults, limiting their diet too largely
to the thoroughly dead and utterly
refined limitations of food instead
of eating live, natural food. neces-
sarily have faulty intestinal action.
To attempt to correct these evils with
drugs is obviously a bootless busi-
ness.

she is most naturally herself she
reveals most her manners. In dis

ly women can either oil the domestic
machinery with the retort courteous
or the retort unspoken, the ready
word Of praise or interest, the mild
restraint and criticism; or they can
clog it to the breaking point with
nagging and petulance. Many a COM

makes home a wretched place. Good
everyday manners are not, perhaps,
a substitute for, competence, but they
go a long way toward permitting
competence in others.

when we must disagree, the force

not deceive to be polite, but we must
