Brownie Spies Another Band
Friendship do not ere misuse;

Farmer Browns Boy.
When Brownie the Th~asher got
back home he had lot to tell Mrs.
Brownie. He showed her the little
metal band on one leg. She looked
at it suspiciously. She looked at it
very suspiciously.
What is it for?" she demanded
"I haven't the least idea" replied
Brownie.
Does it hurt?" she asked.
Not q bit" replied Brownie.
"Why don't you take it off" in
quired Mrs. Brownie.
II can't said Brownie. I've tried
but I cant"
well, all I can say is that it is
mighty queer" said Mrs. Brownie.
What will your neighbors think to
see you wearing a thing like that?"
Brownie began to wonder himself.
He felt a little shy about showing
himself. No one ever likes to feel
queer, and with that little shiny
band on his leg Brownie did feel
queer. So he kept out of sight as
much a. possible. Two days later as
he was peering out from the bushes
along the edge of the Old Orchard he
saw Welcome Robin alight in the
nearest apple tree. He would have
liked to go over for little gossip
with Welcome Robin, but, remem-
bering that shiny band on his leg,
he remained right where he was.
Welcome Robin flew down on the
ground very near the bushes in
which Brownie was hiding. Suddenly
Brownie gave a little gasp. Yes, sir,
he gave little gasp. He blinked
his eyes. He blinked them again,
and a third time. On one of Wei.
come Robins legs was a little shiny
band just like the one on his own
leg. Brownie couldn't believe it at
first. But as Welcome Robin hoped
nearer there was no doubt bout it.
Instantly Brownie came out Of hid.
ing. He was so excited he could
hardly talk. Where did you get
that thing" he cried.
Welcome Robins bright eyes had
instantly seen the little shiny band on
the leg of Brownie. THE same place

torted Welcome.
II didn't suppose any one else had
one, SAID Brownie. 1t mas made

"Well, you needn't have" said

Brownie thought over this news

all mean?" he asked.

Then Welcome Robin and Brownie

There is no problem so insOluble
as that of how to bring back wan
dering husband into the domestic
fold, because every man has to be
dealt with according to his individual
temperament There is only one
thing sure, and that is that no man
can be nagged out of his infatuation
for another woman. or wept in love
with his wife again. The wife who
has courage enough and nerve
enough to pretend not to see what
is going on under her nose, and to
let the case run it's course nearly
always wins out.
Because, alter all, these cases are
hardly ever as serious as either the
wife, or the husband, or the other
woman think they are, and they are
nearly always cured by little whole
some neglect. After man has been
married a good many years, and par
tiCularlY as he gets along toward
middle life, it flatters him to death
for a, woman, other than his wife
to begin running after him. 1t
makes him feel young and romantic
and as if he was q devil of a fellow
among the women. But at middle
age romance gets cold feet when it
thinks about figuring in a scandal,
and the headlines in the newspapers,
and breaking up a home, and ali
monY. Also the man is mighty apt
to discover that the other woman
has just as many peculiarities as
his wife.
SO if the wife will just be blind
and dumb, hubby will come trotting
back home with his tail between his
legs, very much ashamed of his wan
dering and ready to lick the hand
that pats him. My advice to AnX-
ious Wife, who is crazy about her
husband, is just to sit tight and saw
wood. and wait for the prodigars
return-if she thinks he is worth it..

gagement. 1 explained to her that

JOHN FEMING."
Answer:
I think you were exactly right
and that you will be very lucky if
you miss getting such a. narrow
selfish, unreasonable woman for a
wife.
'T could not love thee, dear, sc
much, loved l not honor more" said
the poet to his mistress, and that is
eternally true of the love of a man
for a woman. A big, strong man,
the kind of a steadfast man that it
is safe for a woman to tie to. puts
his duty even before his love Of her
The little, shallow men that q WON
an can wind around her finger. ere
the men who IRE faith full to nothing
not even to love, and still less to
Their wives.
Believe me, John, there Is no wife
such a curse to a man as the wom'
an who is not willing to sacrifice
her own pleasure for his good, and
to help him do a mans part in the
world.
The woman who is jealous OF q
mans business, who begrudges the
time he gives to it, who is always
talking about chat old office" and
who refuses to understand the calls
that mans life work makes upon
hints the worst handicap that any
man can have in life.
Never marry any woman who
isn't interested as much in youl
career as you are, and who ism
ambitious for you to succeed
in it. And thank your guardian
angel that you have scaped get
ting a wife who thinks you can con
duct your business when you're go
ing to pink teas with her.
