nerves he pulled out the book and ask ed him or her to read to himl
 His mother was a wonderful woman of tremendous brain and deep reading. She laid the foundation of his success when he was a child. When he lost his sight at the age of eleven he didn't go time his mother made him work-all kinds of manual labor-and as a result there is nothing he can't do around the house.
 'He is always clean and well-grOom- ed. He takes care of his own clothes and asks no one for help. He picks out the material for his suits and won't have it if he doesn't like it. He hu- mors me by letting me choose his neck ties. I guess other husbands do the same thing. My four brothers and fa- ther were no different from him.
 | There isn't anyone on earth who could help Mfr Gore succeed. He gen. orally keeps five or six people reading to him and he has several subjects go- ing. He has q marvellous memory. His most wonderful speeches have been talked into the air. He never dictates and, of course, has no need of notes.
 Tt does him an injustice to say I have helped him. I was very young when married him and he was mem tally head and shoulders above anyone I had ever met. Mis- brain and strength captivated me and still do. His own family and our family defer to him. No woman would ordinarily have done the reading in logic, philosophy, history and government that I did in reading aloud to him. do not tire reading to him and served as an education to me-a regular university. I give him the joys and happiness in our home life away from his labOrs. My part has been just to make a congenial home"

Consider well these matrimonial don'ts, daughter, when you go to pick a husband and heaven bless your choice. DOROTHY DIX.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-08-01

4He thirty UT lOFIy or IlIGy years or matrimony that you are about to under take are good long stretch of time, and they will seem longer if you are bored, as you assuredly will be if you are married to man who never reads anything but the stock market report and whose talk ranges from the office to the high cost of living and back agaiL. The tired business man who has no interest outside of his business isn't half as tired as he makes his wife.
 Don't marry a grouchy man.
 The man who sits around glum and
 silent whenever another beau drops
 in when he is calling on you or
 who goes into a fit of sulks when
 everybody does not do his way,
 makes the sort of a husband who
 keeps his wife in perpetual terror
 for fear she will do or say some-
 thing that will bring on one of his
 tantrums.
 He glooms around and wet-bIankets every occasion, and nothing but being noble Christian character and a per feet lady keeps her from putting rough on rats in his coffee or throwing the dishes at his head.
 Don't marry a man who carries
 his small change in a pocketbook
 and who has to fish out every
 penny.
 It takes him too long to get at his spending money. His wife will have to fight with tooth and toenail for an al- lowanee, and if she gets it at all it will be cut down to the last nickel, and she will always have to tell what she did with the quarter he gave her week before last.
 Don't marry a man who is al-
 ways knocking women and being
 funny at their expense.
 The man who has no respect for wo- men, and who resents women doing anything but having babies and cook ing dinners is a little-caliber man, and that sort of a man makes the most tyrannical husband in the world. A big man isn't afraid of women. It is the great big fellows, big of heart, big of brain, who spoil their own wives and daughters and are tender and kind and sympathetic to all other women.
 Don't marry a man who has not
 some definite, settled way of mak- ing living.
 He need not be rich. Indeed, "a man who has worked up from the bottom to two thousand dollar salary is a better financial proposition to tie to than the one who has inherited $20,- 900 year from his father and has never earned dollar of his own. But there must be strong enough financial plank in the matrimonial platform to support it or else the pretty romance collapses in ruins.
 Don't marry a man who tells
 you that he never loved before.
 He is either liar or he lacks ex- perience enough to know what he wants in wife. It doesn't matter how many other lovers he has had just so you

plain little thing like you. Besides, it IS hard enough to keep even a tubby, bald-headed, squint-eyed husband from the vamps without going out to hunt for trouble by picking out an Adonis who will make every woman he meets sit up and take notice.
 Don't marry an only son who has sisters. All of his life he has been worshipped and petted and waited upon by q group of ador- ing females to whom his slightest wish was law. He will expect his wife to understand the whole bunch and throw in |. few extra , attentions of herNown.
 Moreover, after you have worked your fingers to the bone picking up after him, and cooking him the things he likes to eat, and putting the but tons on his shirt, he won't even say ''Thank you" because that is what he thinks women are for. Slavery is the middle name of the woman who marries sisters darling and mothers angel boy.
 Don't marry a man who wants you to reform him, and who tells you that if he only had your sac red influence that he would never thirst for another highball or play another poker game, and that from being a waster and a spen1er he would become an industrious and thrifty citizen.
 The man who will not run straight for the sake of his own manhood will never do it for any woman. Making first-class husband out of second class man is too big a job for any girl to tackle.
 Don't marry self-conceited man. The man who tells you how great and wonderful he is, and what marvellous things he has done, and what stupendous things he is going to do in the future is not only a fool, but he exalts himself at the expense of his wife.

mained out of sight until the time came when he was able to make his position known, feeling that all was already safe. This is said to be the common talk about Boston; this is the situation as reported not long ago in an authoritative weekly news maga- zine, which does not express opinions, but which is reputed to report facts only.
 President Coolidge has the respect of the country for his quiet, conserva- tive manner of conducting the affairs of great office when those duties were suddenly thrust upon him. It is possible that if he is elected to be president for the next four years he will prove himself to be fully worthy of the country's confidence. But it is submitted that such election, such confidence in him should not be pre- dicted upon his actions in regard to the Boston police strike if the seem ingly authentic reports of the truth of that situation are, in fact. true.
