even the slightest question about the mat

don't you? MRS. L. M. t.
Both you and your husband are
responding to this situation accord

just the beautiful indifference to
this sort of thing that your husband
doeg. 1 believe I think he is right.
Now that the brother ana the de-

done all that you safely can. Any
planning or guiding on your part
now would amount to interference.
Let this work out naturally.
Nature holds inexplicabie secrets.
Sometimes the persons we would

1t is also an expression of wom-
ans desire to get things set in order
to reform the untoward or irregu-
lar condition. To her, a bachelor
is a pathetic creature, warped and
lacking the inestimable blessings Of
a woman's love and care. Where
ever he is budding in his blind and
foolish desire for safety, she is will
ing to haul him forth willynilly.
She feels the consciousness Of duty
performed when she's accomplishes
this. She feels she's done good
deed in the world-Sometimes she
has.
