He has a violent temper and surly nature. Worst ot all, he seems to like to wound people's feelings, particularly the girls, and he takes a cruel revenge for even the slightest thing that any one does to him, or he thinks they do, to anger him. He admits his fault, but says that he cannot help it. It is just his nature. ‘The girl has tried to help him in vain. She herself is always sunny, and of a particularly even disposition. He is young, and the girl realizes that he might have worse faults. Still she believes that a rood disposition in wedded life is an important ‘factor toward insuring its success, since it can turn mountains into mole hills by mere laughter. What do you think? JOY. Answer: The very worst fault that a husband can possibly have. bar none. is to have a mean disposition. Personully, if T had to choose belween a rounder, a drunkard, a shiftless ne'er-do-well, and a man who was a model of all the virtues, but who had a mean disposition, [ would take the philanderer, or the sot. the loaser, every time in preference. For a man cannot alwayrs be chasing petticoats, or be inebriated. The most constitotinnally tirad man can sometimes be made to do a bit of work, and they ail have times and seasons when they are pleasant and agreeable. But a mean disposition is with you every day and hour. You can never get away from it. It is like a thorn in the flesh, a pebble in the shoe, that goads you to madnes Furthermore, & man's sin is often just his weakness, and along with his faults he often possesses noble and lovable qualities. But a mean disposition comes from a mean heart. It is born of sclfishness, of arrogance, of eruelty, of jealousy and spite, of every evil thing. The man who grouches around his home and sits up in a sullen silence for days at a time, or who flies into a rage about everything that doesn't please him, and the members of whose family walk on tiptoe for fear of offending his uugustness, and live in drcad of doing or saying something that will precipitate a scene, is a grinding tyrant who could have given points to Nero and beaten him at the game. The man who says cruel things that stab his wife to the heart has the spirit of the wife-beater, and the only reason that he doesn’t give her a black eye instead of a bruised soul is because one shows and the other doesn't. ! He delights in tormenting her. Me enjoys secing her suffer. but he is too biz a coward to come out and strike her openly. underhanded methods of indulging lis lust of crueity. No mar or woman with x mn dizpesition can make a happy home no matter what other good qualities they have, so my earnest advice to a contemplating matrimony is to look cut for the disposition first. Marry a man or a woman with a sweet, generous. cheerful, kindly nature, and the balance will take care of itself. It is the disposition with which we have to live. DOROTHY DIX. Iie resorts to sneaky, 1 have been married about 15 years, and my wife s €ating out of my hand, and T love eating out of hers. She wants my company all the time, andi I feel lost without her.

Do you realize that heavy hang- ings and floor coverings will actu- ally make your house seem warmer during the winter months? Then, along about this time o’ year, you'll bring your oriental rugs out of their moth-proof retirement and bring down your old velvet curtains from the attic. In any case, you'll end by going on a shopping tour to buy other heavy rugs and draperies to supplement what you have. There is a standing joke that we Ameri- cans depend on our rugs and draperies to “keep the furnace warm." Now, n selecting Wintertime drapes and rugs that will suggest warmth and hospitality, consider as you shon two factors—color and material, It is obvious that you will not want the thin white and pale yellow drapes that looked se charming the Summertime, job is to secure warmth in a too cool room. Rather vou will consider such materials as velour, velveteen, plush, damask and brocade in such “warm” shades as red and rich yellow. Don’t tmagine, either, that velvet and plush curtains necessarily mean great expense and oversumptuous effect, for you can buy them made rot only from silk, but from cotton, wool, mohair and linen. And while the gllk fabrics have the highest gloss, they are lighter in weight than the others, and so do not really suit your purpose as well. The silk fab- Surprise for Three.

How many of vou. when the alarm calls vou from bed, perhaps before sunrise, have great curiosity as to the ! origin of the mechanism? The alarm in clocks is just a fur- ther development of the striking ap- paratus which had its origin in the earliest days of the clock itself. As a matter of fact, the principal func- tion of a clock, according to medieval conception, was that it automatically call out the hours, particularly the hours for devotion. This is proven by the word itself which originally meant “bell”—a meaning which has been retained in the French word “cloche.” ‘The first alarm was merely the striking of each hour, or such hours as were designated by the priesthood to rouse them for morning devotion. For centuries the hours at which the be after it was built. The mechanism which permits set- ting it for a certain time is the re- | sult of constant development and im- provement which fructified in modern inventive genius. (Copyright, 1821.)
