} ask any of the neighbor's children in-
 to the yard, Mrs. Landlady comes to
 the back door and yells: You've got
 to get right out You can't play
 here.'
 Some of the women who run the
 house and their husbands as well are
 prizes. have nothing but sympathy
 for the husband who lets his wife in
 terfere with the tenants. The best
 story about landady I have heard in many day reached my ears this
 morning. It seems that the wife of landlord in a certain section of the city is extremely jealous of any atten- I tions shown one of her tenants. So in roder to show her authority she went to the tenant the other day and said: If you let your little boy play this summer with the little boz next door you'll have to move It hap pens that the youngster is only five years old, so I can see where moving day is far off. You may think that story is made up, but it's the gospel truth because .know the parties con- eerned
 You can always tell a landlord who has never had anything before Ill ms life. You might think that he had suddenly inherited the wealth of all the Vanderbilts. He issues more 'ferboten' orders than you could find in Germany before the war in the eourse of days travel. If his s,ip- per deesnt agree with him he raises .ae rent. If his tailor doesn't de- liver his suit on time, he raises if asaln. And if he doesn't like the color Of his daughters beaus hair he raises It again for good measure"
 With all that raising he ought to make good poker player" remarked the Pie Fiend as he devoured his third piece of hot mince.
 Poker? Say I'd just like to get a lew Of them into a real he poker game for one evening"" replied Bill Bumps, his sides shaking with laughter T wouldn't leave 'em a pair of shoes to walk home with"
 You must love landlords" replied the Pie Fiend.
 Love 'em? Sure love ,em could just kiss the whole parcel to death, and I'd pay the funeral ex- penses with pleasure.'
 
 There is beauty which is not found on the surface, but only in the soul of q woman.
 The mother rocking a sick child to sleep has it.
 The sister who works so that the brother may have a college educa- ton has it.
 sWorldly opinion does not accord womankind the proper appreciation, So much attention is given the frieo- ions girl, the gay type, that we accept her as representative of her Sex. For every girl who leads il moth and flame" existence, there are dozens of others who care more for their repntations than for a good time" who spend their cve- nings at home after they have hnlped mother wash the dishes or who, if they do go out, can look mother straight in the eye when they return,
 someone once said that a good woman is Gods greatest gift to man. If this be true the Creator has been a>ish with his gifts. They are on lll sides of us, mothers who toll for heir families and daughters who arc 1onest with themselves and with the est Of the human race. In their 'onls lies the beauty in life, hidden be- leath the surface but present never holess.
 It is common practice among nen to speak disparagfngly of gom- m. If the men would look about hem and know the battles that are ought in the hearts of good women, heir attitude would change. They would realize that honov is a prize for which the women of the world are till striving.
